GF Cinnamon & Honey Soaked Biscuits
If I had had time yesterday to participate in the Tuesday Twister (better go add myself now), I would have shared that I made these gluten-free soaked biscuits. They are moist, light, and tasty – even after three days. This is a gluten-free and soaked version of my cinnamon and honey sprouted spelt biscuits.
Basic Chocolate Syrup
Delicious on my best homemade chocolate ice cream, here’s an easy chocolate syrup which features mineral-rich and tasty maple syrup as well as my new favorite kitchen ingredient, Artisana’s coconut butter.
Best Ice Cream: Chocolate or Vanilla
Scoopable, creamy, smooth, delicious… the best homemade ice cream ever! You can turn this basic recipe into mint chocolate chip, cookies and cream, or strawberry, just to give you some ideas…
Maple Cookies
My friend Julieanne shared this yummy maple sugar cookie recipe with me. I tweaked it to use Rapadura and sprouted flour. We love the wonderful maple flavor, along with the nice crunchy outside and chewy center.
Fruit and Nut Christmas Cookies
My mom made these cookies every year at Christmas time, and we loved them! I called her and asked for the recipe so I could tweak it a little bit to share in the Gallery of Christmas Cookies.
Gallery of Christmas Cookies
Welcome to our Gallery of Christmas Cookies! The recipes featured here embrace GNOWFGLINS. This means we’ve all done our best to use natural, organic, whole food ingredients, and as much as possible, grown locally and in season ingredients. Throughout the coming days, I’ll be grabbing your Christmas cookie (or dessert) recipes off your blogs and adding them to this gallery. I’m looking forward to a spectacular array of nutritious cookie choices!
Kefir Parfait (or Yogurt Parfait) – Rich with Enzymes and Probiotics!
We view this treat like a salad, and eat it before or after many meals. It is loaded with digestive enzymes and probiotics!
Enzyme-Rich Homemade Larabars
I’ve long wanted make a homemade Larabar, but I really got inspired this week when reading about foods that are excellent sources of digestive enzymes. The key ingredients in Larabars – dates and nuts – are two of those foods. I use soaked and dehydrated nuts in these homemade Larabars, making them a digestive enzyme-rich food!
Basic Chocolate Frosting – Coconut Cream
In the past, I’ve used the cream part of coconut milk (not light) to make frosting, and that works pretty well. Except that at room temperature, it gets too soft and doesn’t hold up. The answer: Artisana Coconut Butter. Not the most frugal option, BUT definitely the best. In my opinion, it is worth every penny! This frosting holds up at room temperature, and yet is semi-soft when right out of the refrigerator. It is the perfect balance of creamy, smooth, spreadable, and semi-stiff. I don’t expect I’ll ever make another type of frosting.
