I’m a huge fan of raisins, so it’s no surprise that I really liked this version of English muffin. The first version, a plain English muffin, fills a need for a quick bread fix. This version, with cinnamon, honey, and raisins, goes a step further with a slightly sweet taste and a slightly moister texture. …
English Muffin {almond & coconut flour}
I’ve seen a few versions of this recipe but didn’t take it too seriously. I didn’t really believe it was possible. But I had to try it. I won’t lie. It’s not identical to the texture and taste of an English muffin made with all-purpose flour, but it’s a good substitute if you can’t eat …
Thumbprint Cookies
This recipe is great to make with kids (or adults) because the dough needs to be rolled into a ball using your hands, and then you insert your thumb in the middle to flatten it and fill with jelly. Just imagine a Playdough session that results in tasty cookies. My favorite part is the jam. …
Blueberry “Corn” Muffins {almond & coconut flour}
With blueberries in abundance at the moment (in North America), I couldn’t resist overusing them in this simple cornbread muffin recipe, using both almond flour and coconut flour. I have a recipe for blueberry corn muffins, using corn flour. It’s not grain-free, but readers have asked me to keep it live, so I’ve left it …
Chocolate Zucchini Bread {almond flour}
Zucchini is one of those vegetables that grows like crazy in the summer. And it’s easy to grow. Therefore, I’m thinking that you can’t have too many zucchini recipes. Here’s a slightly decadent chocolate zucchini bread using almond flour. And if you don’t normally eat zucchini, but you’re feeling like your life needs some “hidden” …
Parmesan Biscotti
Here’s a savory take on biscotti. They’re crunchy, salty, and have a subtle aged-cheese flavor. These go great with salads and soups, and make tasty croutons as well. I snack on these while they’re cooling, and beyond, so I end up with fewer than I think I have. This is easily solved though—just double the batch. PrintParmesan BiscottiYield …
Gingerbread Biscotti
Want a seasonal biscotti? I gotcha covered. I’m getting busy with holiday stuff, and I’ve been craving a slightly sweet, slightly spicy biscotti. So here we go. This is so easy to make and you can roll, freeze, and then just defrost the dough whenever the moment strikes. It goes great with tea, coffee, ice cream, or …
Chocolate Cupcakes {almond flour}
I’ve been wanting to whip up a reliable chocolate cupcake recipe using almond flour. I have a version using coconut flour, and thought it would be really nice to have the lightness of that recipe using almond flour. Almond flour baked goods tend to be a bit heavier, but there are techniques to lighten them. Let me …
Popcorn Shrimp and Dairy-Free for the Specific Carbohydrate Diet
For those following a grain-free lifestyle, such as SCD, here’s a new book, and a recipe for popcorn shrimp from page 270 in the book. A trio of authors, Pamela Ferro, Raman Prasad, and Nilou Moochhala, have come together to create a new book, The SCD for Autism and ADHD: A Reference and Dairy-Free Cookbook for the Specific Carbohydrate …
Almond Flour Waffles {visual recipe}
Here is an illustration of my recipe for almond flour waffles by a talented graphic designer. I am trying to claw my way back to posting recipes. It’s been a busy several months for me. And I have a SCD book review coming for you as well. Stay tuned. For now, check out this very cool …
Mustard Herb Roasted Chicken
Mustard herb roasted chicken pieces make for tender meat, with a crispy outer edge. I’ve always believed that mustard and chicken belong together. What other ingredients join the party depends on my mood and what I have on hand. And honey and mustard also belong together, but only sometimes with chicken. Anyway, I don’t want to …
Waffle Cones {almond flour}
Last August, in the middle of writing the coconut flour cookbook, I finally bought a waffle cone maker! I’ve been wanting one for years and after seeing Caitlin’s waffle cones, I took the plunge. What took me so long? Geez. And by the way, I also bought a pizzelle maker because when I’m in, I’m all in. …
