?? for all you awesome foodies out there
Hey Shannon,
I use coconut flour corn flour and almond flour a lot- I make flour out of other nuts as well- we're gluten free but I try to keep it less carby/starchy as well
I am a big fan of cooking with spelt flour. It works really well and has a lower glycemic index. I just made blueberry muffins with half spelt and half whole wheat. They were amazing. If you are making muffins I always add way more fruit when cooking with whole wheat or other whole grains, it ups the moisture and makes for a yummier muffin. And here is the best ever low carb pancake/waffle recipe ever:
Beat 1 cup cottage cheese till it is a little whipped
Beat in 4 eggs and 1/2 cup some kind of flour (I have used spelt, whole wheat, gluten free, anything works)
with mixer running add in 1/2 stick butter (you can do less here if you are worried about the fat content but I would add some)
that is it. Batter done. Use it for pancakes or waffles. I have added walnuts or blueberries, I usually serve it with raspberry sauce (a bag of frozen raspberries heated on the stove and sweetened with something, stevia or splenda or whatever). Sometimes I serve it with raspberries and a little greek yogurt on top, that ups the protein and also makes it a little less chewy and more moist which my pouch appreciates. Have fun baking!
