Gluten free mish mosh banana raisin pumpkin bread!

I had two of the darkest bananas, half a can left of the pumpkin from my pumpkin cheese cake roll, and knew if I didn't use them, my husband would throw them out.
So, I looked at a recipe that my mom had been using for flourless oatmeal muffins, and, as always, started to play.
The outcome, was a perfect loaf of all the right choices.I made it twice, once with sugar and once with stevia. The recipe below is the stevia, feel free to use regular!

Chocolate chocolate chip cookies( yup double the chocolate gluten free!)

Just a warning, in future posts you will probably be seeing a lot of this little dude

He's kind of my super awesome helper. And any time there is baking to be done in the kitchen, he's right there with the mixer!

So, cookies. Yum. 

I always have to measure everything out ahead of time, especially with baking with my little three year old. 

First throw your butter into your bowl. 

Now, your sugar

Then, on medium speed, mix the two until blended and fluffy

Then add your egg

Then add the flours, and once mixed.... Throw in your chocolate!

" that's a lot of chocolate mommy!"

Place two inches apart in teaspoon fills ( they will really puff up)

And then bake!  

It's been my experience to completely allow them to cool before attempting to eat them, they will be very soft and will not hold up if you try to eat them while warm... Although this is perfect in the bottom of a cup with ice cream thrown over!

Bake time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

1 cup oatmeal flour

1/4 cup coconut flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

8 tbsp or one stick of butter softened

1/2 cup sugar( I use raw)

1/2 cup brown sugar( I make my own but I am use any will work)

1 egg

2 tsp cocoa powder1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375. Blend together the butter ,and sugars until fluffy.

Beat in the egg.

Mix the flours, cocoa and baking soda. Add to the butter mixture.

Stir until smooth. 

Add the chips.

Drop by teaspoon on pre greased cookie sheets, around two inches apart. 

Bake 8-12 minutes or until brown around the edges. 

I highly recommend to allow the cookies to cool before devouring them!

My second attempt at a failed blog...

So, every time I am about to get on the blog bandwagon something happens. Last year I finally started successfully blogging... Only to have a computer crash after three months.
ha.
So, after nine months of being on bed rest, having severe stomach issues, and not being able to eat much, I decided to promise to start my love of baking. Basically because I started and never really continued.

So, I have some literal batter to bake. And I figure, why not keep a blog so that when my friends and family ask where I am getting these ideas from, I can say, we'll, from , myself of course!

Gluten free English muffins

Here are my cinnamon raisin English muffins, definitely a must try!

My son and husband definitely like these for breakfast, and with cream cheese and jam. Give these a try if you want something sweet in the morning!

Defloured Cinnamon Raisin English Muffins

By: Batter to Bake

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 20-30 minutes

Yields: approximately 6

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups of oat flour (Or 1 cup oats, 1 1/2 cup flour)

3/4 cups almond milk

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

2 eggs

1/2 tsp vanilla
2 tsp stevia
2 tsp raw sugar
1/4 cup raisins

1 tbsp sugar free maple syrup

1/2 tsp baking soda

Directions:

Place flour in the bowl with salt,baking powder and baking soda. Mix

 Add the eggs, Sugar, Vanilla , spices and Raisins.

 Mix all of the ingredients. The mixture will become quite thick after a while. This is because the oat flour is soaking up the liquids. 

 Scoop about 1/4 cup of mixture. This is the approximate thickness of the mixture in the skillet. 

Cover the pan with the lid approximately 5 minutes.

As  you can see they have fluffed up and begun to bubble. Now is time to flip.

 This is them flipped. They look similar to the real deal right?

 Looking at this picture makes me hungry!

Gluten free pumpkin roll

This was my second attempt at a ”roll” kind of bread.
My first attempt, the oatmeal cinnabun,wasn't exactly what I wanted then to look like (even though they tasted like the real thing)
So, last night I set out on an obsession to find a way to make my husband his favorite rolls, without the oatmeal thickness.
I found a recipe on pinterest for some ”oopsie” breads. These are adorable, stable, little fluffy clouds that can be used as bread.
The concept was simple. Whip the egg whites, then Assad in those whipped yolks. The reviews were amazing, so I decided to multiply the recipe, and added some pumpkin and oatmeal to the mix.
I was not at all sure it would work, so I don't have any pictures of the process, but I promise my next try to have it from beginning to end.

Defloured Pumpkin Cheesecake Roll

By: Batter to Bake

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Yields: One roll

Ingredients:
6 eggs separated
2/3 cup pumpkin
2/3 cup sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 tbsp sugar (I used stevia)
1 cup coconut, almond or oat flour

Filling:
4 tbsp butter
1 package fat free creamcheese
1 cup confectioners sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla

**It is VERY important to follow each step exactly**

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Grease a 10x15 jelly roll pan
Separate the yolks and the whites into two separate bowls
Beat the yolks and sugar until thick for about five minutes
Stir in your pumpkin, flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg for about four minutes.
Now, with clean beaters, mix your egg whites until stiff (Like, lift the bowl over your head nothing falls out stiff)
Fold into your yolk mixture, and try your best to not flatten your egg whites.
Spread onto your pan.
Bake about 25 minutes, or until it springs back.
Lay out a towel, and sprinkle coconut flour or powdered sugar onto it. Turn over the pan and carefully peel back the pan onto your towel.
Roll your cake with the towel and leave to cool. Must cool completely or else it is too sticky to peel.
Mix all ingredients for your filling and spread it onto your roll.
Roll it again and cover tightly with Cling Wrap.
Leave in your refrigerator over night.
In the morning you get this delicious roll!

Be sure to check back next week, I'll be trying a Cinnamon raisin alternative to this!

Enjoy!

Gluten free Peanut butter kiss cookies

I'm sure it's been done before, But I had to do it again...

Kiss cookies! My mother makes these outrageous cookies at christmas time. One hershey kiss in the center of Ooey Gooey goodness, mixed with peanut butter. Oh yes. This is my memory of Christmas.

So, with my chocolate chip cookie recipe, I figured, I would try them out.

I kind of think everyone should actually. The mixture of the dark chocolate and the peanut butter is so amazing, espesially with a nice cold glass of coconut milk. 

Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

By Batter to Bake

Yields 13-15 Large cookies

Prep Time: 10 Minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes (I like them chewy)

Ingredients:

1 Cup of Creamy Peanut Butter (I use Peanut Butter Co's Maple PB)

1/2 cup Raw Sugar (I use a little less)

1/4 Cup Brown Sugar

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp cinnamon

1 egg

1 bag dark chocolate hershey kisses 

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 Degrees.

Beat Peanut butter with sugar until fluffy. Add egg. Beat. Add baking soda and vanilla and mix together for about 2 minutes. 

Add the 1/2 to 1 cup of chip mixture. Once it's all blended cover your bowl with cling wrap and place in the refrigerator for ten minutes. 

Spray your cookie sheets with cooking spray. I use a ice cream scoop to make each cookie the same size, but just scoop the dough on to your sheets. 

Roll each chunk of dough into a ball and place on the baking sheet. 

Place the sheets in the oven and bake for about ten minutes

Press a cold hershey kiss into the center and allow to cool completely. 

Enjoy!
