Spa Cuisine
 This
coffee cake makes a great centerpiece for your Mother's Day Brunch. Made with
whole-grains and berries --both good sources of disease-fighting antioxidants -
it's not only amazingly delicious, it's incredibly good for you, too! Enjoy!
Mixed Berry Whole-Grain Coffee Cake
Green Mountain at Fox Run, Ludlow, Vermont
3 tablespoons butter
1 cups quick-cooking oats
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup skim milk
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 (12-ounce) bag frozen, unsweetened mixed berries, thawed and drained
(about 1 1/2-2cups frozen or 2 cups fresh berries)
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease
9-inch round cake or springform pan or 9 x 9 square pan. Mix butter, oats,
1/4 cup flour and brown sugar in small bowl with fork or pastry cutter until
crumbly. Set aside. Combine flours, sugar, oil, milk, baking powder,
cinnamon, salt and egg in large bowl. Beat mixture with wire whip or mixer
1- 2 minutes, until well blended. Stir in mixed berries. Spread half of the
batter in pan and sprinkle ˝ of oat mixture on top. Add remaining batter and
sprinkle with remaining oat mixture and chopped walnuts. Bake 40-45 minutes
or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve warm.
SPA AT HOME:
A reader asks
"I like salt and sugar scrubs for my legs and hands, and nose area, but can't
tolerate a lot of oil, especially if I want to use it on my face. What's a
good substitute for the oil, in sugar scrub recipes?"
We use Liquid glycerin as a skin moisturizer when we don't wish
to use oil. This is particularly helpful when we want to scrub nose
crevices, without introducing oil to the face. Liquid Glycerin is a
by-product of soap making, and can be found at health food stores. Its also
readily available on the internet as well. Do a
patch test to be certain you can tolerate the glycerin, if you find you have
sensitivities.
 Spa Index Glycerin Sugar Scrub
1 cup fine loose salt or loose sugar
3 teaspoons liquid glycerin
1 teaspoon pure honey
3-5 drops of your favorite essential oil
Optional: Pinch of lavender blossoms (available in the bulk department of
good health food stores), or chamomile, or dried herbs of your choice,
chopped exceedingly fine.
- Mix
ingredients well and store in an airtight container. Add more
liquid ingredients if you prefer a thinner end-product. Stir thoroughly
before use. This keeps very well, and in fact, the honey acts as
preservative. Use small amounts when scrubbing the nose, being careful
not to irritate or get it in the eyes. Scrub elbows, hands, knees,
and feet. Rinse in warm water, pat dry, and apply your favorite lotion
afterward.
