  • Apple Cinnamon Breakfast Muffins

    4 star : Easy filling breakfast treat. Most went for seconds. I soaked the oats overnight in the liquid to make it more digestible for the kids and reduce the carbohydrate load. - whole30 adaptable - makes a lot! ingredients 1 and 1/2 cups milk (I used 1 c yogurt and 1/2 c water) 2 large eggs* 1/2 cup (120ml) agave or honey or pure maple syrup* 1/2 cup (120g) unsweetened applesauce 3 cups (240g) old-fashioned whole oats* (soaked overnight in liquid mentioned above) 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 tsp cream tartar 1 and 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg Dash clove 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 heaping cup peeled chopped apple 2Tb coconut sugar with cinnamon for topping Instructions Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Generously spray a muffin pan with nonstick spray. If using muffin liners, spray them with nonstick spray. The oatmeal cups stick to the liners a bit regardless, so I recommend skipping them. Whisk all of the ingredients together, except for the apples (and nuts and coarse sugar), in 1 large bowl. Using a spoon or rubber spatula, fold in the apples and nuts (if using). Batter will be a little liquid-y. Spoon batter evenly into muffin cups, making sure both the oats/apples and liquid are in each. Fill all the way to the top. If desired, sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned and top appears set. If the tops appear to brown very quickly, tent a piece of aluminum foil on top. Cool for 5 minutes before serving. Cover leftover oatmeal cups tightly and refrigerate for up to 1 week. Next time I’m adding strussel: 1/2 cup (50g) chopped walnuts or pecans , 3Tb coconut oil, 2 Tb cinnamon coconut sugar Based on: https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/apple-cinnamon.../...

  • Paleo Dark Chocolate Cream Pie

    5 star :: perfect texture, this recipe and it up being a dark chocolate pie versus milk chocolate, and it was extremely difficult to make with all the steps. I’ve personally loved the flavor. But I used my own paleo crust recipe. INGREDIENTS: 2 cups blanched almond flour 2 tablespoons coconut flour 1⁄2 cup cocoa powder 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda 1⁄4 teaspoons sea salt 1⁄2 cup honey 1⁄4 cup coconut oil 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract Filling 2 tablespoons water 2 3⁄4 teaspoons unflavored powdered gelatin 2 1⁄2 cups full-fat coconut milk 4 large egg yolks 3⁄4 cup grade B maple syrup 1⁄4 teaspoon sea salt 1/4 cup raw cacao 1/4 cup cacao butter 1/2 tsp stevia powder 1 1⁄2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 1 cup Coconut Milk Whipped Cream Dark chocolate shavings, optional INSTRUCTIONS: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Make the crust. Sift the dry ingredients into the bowl of a stand mixer or food processor. Place the remaining ingredients in a saucepan set over low heat until melted. Add the melted chocolate mixture to the dry ingredients. Beat in a stand mixer or food processor until fully combined. Press the dough into a 9-inch pie pan, being sure to spread it evenly along the bottom and up the sides. Bake for 12 minutes, then let cool. Meanwhile, make the filling. Place the water in a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over it. Place the coconut milk in a saucepan set over medium-high heat to warm. Place the egg yolks, maple syrup, and salt in a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Temper the eggs by adding half of the heated milk into the bowl, whisking continuously. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes, stirring frequently. Do not let it boil or the yolks will curdle. Whisk in the gelatin, then continue to cook for 2 minutes, whisking vigorously until the gelatin has dissolved entirely. The mixture should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Pour the custard through a mesh sieve into a bowl. Add the chocolate pieces and vanilla, whisking until smooth. Pour the custard into the cooled piecrust and cover with plastic wrap. Place in the refrigerator for 6 hours, until firm. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before serving. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate shavings, if desired.

Add the EVOO and orange zest to the rest of the seasonings and rub all over the outside of the turkey. 4. Place the water and apple cider in the water pan in the bottom of the smoker, filling it only half way. Place a drip pan on the next shelf above the water pan to collect drippings from the turkey. Fill the side drawer with the wood chips. 5. Tuck the wing tips tightly beneath the turkey. Place the seasoned turkey on the middle rack of the smoker, close the door, and set a timer for approximately 6.5 hours.

Start checking the internal temperature of the bird after 3 hours and every 45 minutes with an accurate meat thermometer.
