Grandma’s Apple Crumble

Let’s admit that most people think the topping is the best part of a fruit crumble. The crunchy, sweet oat nuggets are really “the icing on the cake”, right? It may surprise you to learn that you get better results with coconut oil than with the butter our grandmas used.  Coconut oil makes for a rich, crisp topping that’s also much better for you. Active time: 20 minutes Total time: 70 minutes Filling 12 apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1 tablespoon arrowroot starch ½ cup coconut sugar 3 tablespoons chia seeds 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg ¼ teaspoon sea salt 3 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice Topping 2 cups GF rolled oats ¾ cup GF all-purpose flour 1 cup vegan butter ½ cup roughly chopped almonds 3/4 cup organic cane sugar 3 tablespoons shredded coconut (optional) 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 ½ teaspoons…

Love N’ Peas Muffins

We developed this muffin at Kindfood as a lunch special for kids. The inspiration came from a T-shirt slogan Kelly saw and loved in California. Moms would buy these for their kids’ lunches and snacks, knowing they would get something fun, nutritious and yummy. And they’re not just for kids, this is a perfect lunch muffin to take along when you’re brown-bagging it. We recommend you make the Oat Streusel topping, it’s perfect! Active time: 10 minutes Total time: 45 minutes 4 tablespoons flax meal 2/3 cup rice milk 2 cups GF all-purpose flour 1/2 cup oat flour 3/4 cup coconut sugar or Sucanat 2 teaspoons baking powder 2 teaspoons baking soda 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum 1 teaspoon sea salt 1 teaspoon cinnamon ½ cup sunflower seed oil, canola oil or olive oil ¼ cup maple syrup 2 tablespoons molasses 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 ½ cups pureed butternut…

Teff Brownies. Gluten Free, Vegan and Delicious

Teff Brownies. Who would’ve thought? For most, I bet you have never heard of this nutritious grain/flour. I personally love the teff grain and experienced it a few years back in an Ethiopian restaurant and admired the taste of the flour they used to make their flat bread called enjera. One of the smallest grains in the world, it dates back to over 4000 years on this planet. I think what I love about eating gluten-free baking is that the grains and flours can be so densely nutritious. Teff is about 12% protein and it leads all other grains in its calcium content. A cup of cooked teff offers about 123mg of calcium which is comparable to a half-cup cooked spinach. Teff is also an excellent source of vitamin C, a micronutrient not commonly found in grains. It’s also very high in fibre and B vitamins. Due to it’s earthy…
