Sweet martabak or terang bulan is one of the favorite snacks that never loses its fans. With a soft texture, a sweet taste that pampers the tongue, and various toppings such as chocolate, cheese, nuts, and condensed milk, sweet martabak always manages to attract anyone's attention. Usually this martabak is often chosen as a snack when gathering with relatives.
However, behind its deliciousness, sweet martabak is known as a high-calorie snack. Made from basic ingredients of wheat flour, sugar, and margarine, this snack has a fairly high calorie content. Each piece of sweet martabak can contribute hundreds of calories to the body, most of which come from carbohydrates and fats. This is certainly a concern for people who are watching their weight or trying to control their sugar and flour consumption.
Consuming sweet martabak excessively can have negative impacts on health, especially if done routinely. High calories can contribute to weight gain, as well as the risk of diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular problems. Therefore, limiting sweet martabak consumption wisely is key.
But if you still want to eat sweet martabak, you can make it yourself with a healthier version, you know. An Instagram user @rumah_keizya once shared a trick to make sweet martabak without flour and sugar. Even so, the resulting martabak is still sweet and soft, you know.
As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @rumah_keizya on Friday (10/18), the ingredient that needs to be prepared to replace flour is ground rolled oats. If you don't have any, you can use mocaf flour which is just as healthy as rolled oats.

To be more precise, prepare 3 tablespoons of finely ground rolled oats. Mix with 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder, 1 egg and 100 ml of water. Beat using a whisk until all ingredients are well mixed. Once done, heat a non-stick pan or teflon.

Next, pour the batter and then rotate the pan so that the batter fills the entire pan. If so, cook until the batter produces bubbles or becomes nests. Let stand for a while until the surface is dry, then brush with honey (as a topping and sweetener). Also add chopped roasted peeled peanuts.
