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.

Plant Paradox Friendly Peach and Pecan Muffins

I love my go-to muffins, but today I just needed something a little different.  Peaches, Pecans, and Nutmeg are the difference, plus I swapped out the sorghum flour for amaranth flour.  My homemade peach jam sweetened with stevia and erythritol is very good with them too! Have fun making and 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.

Ham-Mushroom-Potato Soup

Potatoes on a lectin free diet?!?  Per Dr. Gundry yes if you pressure cook them (I used my steam vegetables setting), but only do it occasionally.  They are still heavy in carbs and if you are diabetic like me, they will make your blood sugar go up some.   With that being said, I went about creating a yummy, creamy potato soup like the ones my husband used to make for us, only more compliant with the Plant Paradox way of eating.
