HOW BAKE WITH NATVIA HELPS BAKING RISE - If you need your recipe to rise (even if the recipe does not include baking powder), 2-3 teaspoons of baking powder may be added to your recipe to help the baking rise. LIGHT & FLUFFY - When baking cakes, normally the chemical reaction of beating sugar and butter together creates a lot of air. As Natvia is different in chemical structure to sugar, the butter has to be beaten on its own until light and fluffy and then add the Natvia and continue to beat. The biggest tip and the best secret to success when baking with Nativa is to really beat or cream your initial mixture. MOISTURE - For moist cakes, replace butter with oils as the fats ingredient. Use a touch more liquid to your recipe but not too much! 1-2 tablespoons of milk to a recipe for 12 cakes will do. CARAMELISATION - Preheat oven in 160ºC, pour Natvia into an oven proof dish and cook it in the oven for about 40mins until caramel coloured. Try adding some fruits such as bananas or figs to assist in caramelisation. MERINGUE-BASED DISHES - When making meringue based dishes (e.g. Pavlova) Natvia can be added at the start prior to whisking up the egg whites. Natvia does not need to be added gradually as it doesn t affect the end volume of the whisking egg whites. JAM S & SAUCES - When making jam or sauces, use icing mix for a finer texture or blitz Natvia in a food processor until desired consistency is achieved. Use a bit of xanthan gum to prevent the Natvia from recrystallising. RECIPE KEY GLUTEN FREE GF DAIRY FREE DF EGG FREE EF VEGAN V 4

PREP 5 COOK 20 SERVE 1 PERSON BROWN RICE MAC IA MILK PORRIDGE RECIPE BY @MINTYANDBEE INGREDIENTS METHOD 1 cup brown rice 4 cups of macadamia milk (or any other plant milk, plus 1 cup extra if desired) 1/3 cup Natvia (or to taste) 1 tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. vanilla bean paste berries and fruit, to serve --- Refer to page 5 for the alternative ingredient list. 1. This recipe can be prepared the night before. 2. Wash rice thoroughly with water and drain. In a small pot add drained rice and remaining ingredients, and mix thoroughly until combined well. 3. Reduce the heat of stovetop to medium and allow the porridge to cook away. Cooking brown rice takes much longer than cooking white rice, therefore making this the night before for the morning is a good idea. 4. Once your porridge has cooked through, it will soak up most of the milk. You may wish to cook your rice a little longer if you like your grains softer. 5. To serve, heat up, top with a whole heap of fruits and berries. Note: If you would like your porridge a little runnier, just add one extra cup of milk when serving. V EF DF GF 27
