1. Linseed & Pecan Pancakes

   Posted on 4:58pm Tuesday 9th Feb 2016

   

   Ingredients: 

   2 heaped tbsp of wholemeal flour

   1 heaped tbsp of ground almonds

   1 egg

   ½ tsp of baking powder (gluten free)

   1 tbsp of golden linseeds

   Small handful of Pecan nuts (or any other nuts you prefer)

   Pinch of salt

   Milk of your choice

   Butter

   Maple Syrup

    

   Method:

   Mix the baking powder with the wholemeal flour, ground almonds and a small pinch of salt. Add the  egg and enough milk to get the consistency you desire. The thicker the butter the more dense the pancake.  Add the linseeds last by stirring them into the batter. 

   In a small frying pan melt a small nob of butter and some of the pecan nuts. Allow for the nuts to brown on each side and then add around 4 tablespoons of the pancake mix. Cook until brown  on both sides and serve with a dollop of your favourite yogurt and a generous drizzle of maple syrup.

2. Peanut Butter & Cinnamon Loaf

   Posted on 9:50am Monday 18th Jan 2016

   Yesterday I did some Sunday baking! 

   

   
   This is a moist loaf that is similar to Banana Bread in texture minus the fruit
   Delicious with either almond or peanut butter spread on top, or on its own.

   Mix everything in a blender:

   1 Glass of Almond Milk
   3 Eggs
   1 cup of coconut flour
   2 tablespoons of Golden Flaxseeds
   1 tablespoon of cinnamon
   1 tablespoon of honey
   2 tablespoons of peanut butter
   1 teaspoon of baking powder

   Add coconut milk (hemp, almond or other milk of your choice) until a
   a thick consistency, but still easy enough to stir with a wooden spoon

   Pour into a greased container and place in the oven at 180c, for 30minutes.
   Pierce with a wooden toothpick to check it is cooked through.
   Enjoy!

3. Easter Pizza

   Posted on 3:18pm Thursday 2nd Apr 2015

   I recently made the most delicious pizza I have EVER had! Here's the recipe so you can make your own over Easter.

   1 small cup of chickpea flour

   1 small cup of water

   ½ teaspoon of cumin

   1 garlic clove

   ½ an onion

   Small bunch of fresh parsley & coriander 

    

   Soften the onion, garlic and cumin with a little coconut oil until it starts browning.

   In a bowl mix the water with the chickpea flour. Add the cooked onions and the chopped fresh herbs.

   Salt to taste.

   In a non stick frying pan add a tiny bit of coconut oil and when hot pour some of the mixture to form a pancake. Cook both sides until a bit brown. Place is a baking tray and add whatever toppings you fancy. Place under the grill for a few minutes and drizzle with olive oil before serving.
