Rainy day baking happiness Recipe: https://justwhatweeat.com/cinnamon-rolls-gluten-free-vegan-refined-sugar-free-yeast-free/ Notes: I subbed sorghum flour for millet and used half coconut sugar half unrefined cane sugar (because I ran out of millet flour and coconut sugar). I used almond milk instead of coconut milk for the same reason. Also, use an 8x8, rather than 9x13 pan.

It's probably no secret that scones are my favorite thing to bake. I still had leftover coconut milk holiday nog and wondered how this recipe might taste with that change.

Post- Christmas Pancakes: Holiday Nog Edition
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I ended up with quite a bit of leftover holiday nog. I love the taste of holiday nog - whether it tastes like eggnog or not, I wouldn't know- but two cartons is a bit much for one person to drink.

Rainy Day Pancakes
Rainy mornings call for pancakes. I wanted to experiment with different flours... trying to get in more fiber, iron, and protein while reducing carbs. After comparing flours, I decided to go with Almond (low carb, good fiber and iron, high fat), oat, and sweet sorghum (higher carb, low fat, good fiber and iron). Compared to...… Continue reading Rainy Day Pancakes
Oat Breakfast Muffin
It's no secret that I've been doing a lot of baking lately... well, the last 4 months. This past week, I thought more about the flour I've been using. Four years ago, I was very strict about the flour I used. No blends, no tapioca, no potato flour, no bean flour. Oh, and I definitely… Continue reading Oat Breakfast Muffin
