Carob Glaze
A quick, wholesome three-ingredient glaze — give it a try! I'm a pretty busy person, but I'm also a fan of homemade, healthy cooking. And like every home cook, I've got a whole arsenal of little tricks. Today I'll share one of my quick recipes for finishing desserts — cakes, pies, or pastries. The beauty of this glaze is that it comes together much faster than the usual kind, contains no sugar, and has a mellow yet rich flavor.

- Carob powder is made from the dried pods of a subtropical legume tree. It has a sweet, rich flavor, is packed with beneficial nutrients, is great for digestion, and makes an excellent chocolate substitute. The nice thing about this carob glaze is that there's no fussing with a double boiler. Put all the ingredients in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan, set it over low heat, and bring to a boil, stirring with a whisk. Once it reaches a boil, cook the glaze for 6–8 minutes, whisking constantly so the mixture doesn't stick to the bottom and sides of the pan. If you don't mind a non-glossy glaze, you can use it as is, after cooling it down — just expect it to have a few small grains. If you prefer a smooth, uniform texture, blitz the mixture with an immersion blender; this will also give it a glossy sheen. Use the carob glaze to finish a cake, pastries, or any other dessert. Happy baking!
