Chocolate cake with hidden vegetables

This is a very easy way to get all the vegetables you need 😉 Personally, I love to throw in vegetables in a cake because you often don’t taste any of it and it is super healthy! This cake contains vegetables, fruit and chocolate, what more does someone want?

Recipe: Chocolate cake with pumpkin

Ingredients:

• 10½ ounces pumpkin
• ½ cup blueberries

• ³/8 cup coconut (shredded)

• 2½ tablespoons stevia sugar
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder

Preparations:
