My Go To Muffin Recipe

This recipe is so flexible.  As long as you use the same total amount of flour, 3 cups, you can mix a different flour in and out depending on what your taster likes.  

You can add half as much vanilla and add something like coconut or almond extract.  

If you're not a fan of cinnamon, then use something else (nutmeg, cloves, ginger or nothing). 

Add-ins can be anything you like, but if you are diabetic like my husband and I try and stay away from dried fruits (like raisins) they are just little packets of sugar waiting to affect your glucose levels.  

The xanthan gum, arrowroot starch/flour, and tapioca starch/flour are essential to the recipe.  Since there is no gluten in these muffins, other ingredients must be added to hold them together.

Make sure the applesauce is made with no sugar added.

That being said, go make a batch and tell the rest of us how they turned out.

Grain-Free, Sugar-Free and Lactose-Free MAGIC COOKIE BARS

Magic Cookie Bars were always a favorite of mine when I was growing up and then I made them for my own children.  Wanting to be able to experience the same awesome taste as a Lectin Free eater I went to town making it compliable.  Make sure you plan ahead, because they do need to sit in the refrigerator overnight before cutting into their chocolaty goodness. 

Plant Paradox friendly Jerusalem Style Bagels

Earlier this year two of my friends took a guided tour to Israel.  They saw and ate many things, but the food they remembered the most were the "Jerusalem Style Bagels" that they ate most mornings for breakfast.   I found the traditional recipe online, and reworked it to be Plant Paradox friendly.  They are always a big hit when I make them, like I did yesterday for my Sunday morning Bible class.   I eat them dipped in oil, oil & vinegar, spread with butter, or a soft goat cheese product.  The following recipe can also be modified to include sourdough starter (3/4 cup and reduce the flour by about the same amount.)  Enjoy making them, and please enjoy eating them! 😄

Sweet Potato-Apple Butter

I was at a craft show over the weekend and bought a small jar of Pumpkin-Apple Butter from one of the vendors.  Not at all on my diet and chalked full of those lectins I have give up.  Well, I bought it for some muffins I made to take to my Bible study and everyone loved it so I decided I had to find a way to manipulate the recipe so I could enjoy it too.  It was so simple of a conversion I didn't even finish a cup of tea while doing it!  It is full of all those traditional fall flavors so many of us love to eat.  Hope you enjoy it too.
