Gluten-Free Egg-Free Peanut Butter Cookies
I am big on nut butter cookies. You can use peanut butter or almond butter, whichever you prefer. I have made Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies, Crunchy Peanut Butter and Coconut Cookies, Sugar Free Peanut Butter Cookies with Oatmeal, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies, Dairy-Free Peanut Butter Cookies Using Cookie Mix, and now, gluten free egg free peanut butter cookies with teff flour. They’re all wonderful and some are considered grain-free as teff and buckwheat are seeds, not grains. However, my all-time fave is Gluten Free Nutter Butter Cookies Recipe (Dairy-Free). Those are a bit more time-consuming than this new recipe. I enjoy this new one for its nutritional value, ease of preparation, and flavor. I hope you enjoy them, as well. They’re dairy-free, egg-free, and gum-free, to name a few. They are also grain-free as teff is a seed, not a grain. Continue reading “Gluten-Free Egg-Free Peanut Butter Cookies”
Is Corned Beef Gluten Free? + Slow Cooker Recipe
Every year around this time, my mom used to make corned beef and cabbage. It wasn’t until recently that I realized it wasn’t named Corn Beef and Cabbage. I didn’t realize the beef was “corned”. The “ed” makes total sense. I’m not alone, though, and either are you if you didn’t know this. There are over 18,000 people each month that search for “gluten free corn beef” via Google.

How to Make Invert Sugar: The Secret to Moist Cookies
I am interested in making a copycat recipe of the Gluten Free Trios that some of the girl scout troops are selling this year. The Trios are just amazing cookies! However, I noticed that one of the ingredients is invert sugar (the consistency of high fructose corn syrup, but different). It keeps baked goods moist without crystallizing. Honey will work the same; however, invert sugar does the job without imparting a honey flavor. Not having on hand, I decided to make some myself. I hope you appreciate the recipe, as it is extremely easy to learn how to make invert sugar. However, you can also purchase invert sugar online.

Apple & Beet Juice Jelly Recipe
During The Great Depression, a beet juice jelly recipe was something people turned to save money. It was inexpensive to make versus using fresh fruit. I’ve been on this beet kick, whether I steam fresh beets or use canned. Canned beets contain about 1/2 cup of juice ready to use in this recipe. I save it up to make beet juice jelly, or in this case, apple beet juice jelly. Today, beets and its juices are consumed for multiple health benefits from fighting inflammation to cancer. I use a combination of apple cider and xylitol (a sugar substitute) to sweeten it, making it almost guilt free. Then add your favorite extract to create a unique flavor. The texture is perfect, not stiff like jello. Continue reading “Apple & Beet Juice Jelly Recipe”

Stevia Sweetened Homemade Almond Milk Recipe
Up to a few years ago, I was making a homemade almond milk recipe created by Ani Phyo, date sweetened almond milk. However, due to its high carbohydrate content, I switched to unsweetened. Recently, I began adding a bit of stevia to the recipe. I finally found a brand that isn’t bitter, NOW Better Stevia. Now my almond milk is perfect!
Update: I also enjoy using Trader Joe’s Liquid Organic Stevia. Continue reading “Stevia Sweetened Homemade Almond Milk Recipe”
