Gym Week #1

10:30 – 11:30: Step
11:30 – 12:30: Bodystyling
12:40 – 13:00: Cross-Trainer (10 min. backwards, 10 min. forwards)

After training the BF waited with a lovely and oh so yummy rhubarb cake. Before the gym I had an apple-banana-milk & water shake with lime.

  • Monday: 2,5 hours – endurance training (Step with barbells and dumbbell & Bodystyling with dumbbell)

My belly after one week of gym membership. Didn’t change too much (duh!) but it’s gone through a lot of crunch, sit-up and leg-raise pain!

Mix everything and put the dough in the fridge for one hour.
After that you separate it into 5 pieces.

For the filling you’ll need:

Take an oven-safe form, not too small, an add first a layer of dough, then a layer of the filling, then a layer of dough and so on, until the last layer of dough lays on top.

1. layer:

  • 1 glas plum butter
  • 250g grinded nuts
  • 1 bag raising (if you like them)

Start with a layer of dough first, then add the rest

2. layer:

  • 50g honey
  • juice from 1/2 lemon
  • 3 soup spoons of white wine

Always start with a layer of dough!
You can either mix all three together or put them on separately.

3. layer:

  • 2 bags of poppy seeds

4. layer:

  • 4 cut up apples

They might not all fit and remember, you still need a cover topping of dough.

On the top coat of the dough you whisk a egg and spread it on it. The last thing you do is pull lines with a fork.

Bake for one hour at 175 C° Celsius. Enjoy! (It will feed a lot of people)

*Note to self: next time use less dough, plum butter and poppy seeds and more apples.
