I’m currently on a quest to ‘reinvent’ sweets recipes and this recipe was in the back of my mind for quite some time now. It’s a light recipe with very few calories per slice (you can have 2 at a time! it’s that safe calorie-wise) and ready in no time. Preparation in 10 minutes, then it’s the oven doing what’s left of the time 🙂
