heirloom: Not just for campfires...
http://heirloomchef.blogspot.com/2012/12/not-just-for-campfires.html
Not just for campfires. I recently made these for my child’s preschool treat when it was her turn to provide the snacks…and apparently the entire room of 4-5 years olds enjoyed them…Score! They are delicate and fun to make…also make excellent s’mores. (Note marshmallow recipe from last month). After lots of testing, I have also created a gluten free version. Remember, if they are reduced to crumbs, use them for a crust! 1 cup all-purpose flour. 1 cup coconut flour (bob’s is a good brand). 188; cup water.

As seen in the photograph, recipes are listed clockwise starting from my favorite basic green drink at the bottom.

heirloom: Almond Polenta Cake with Elderflower Honey Glaze
http://heirloomchef.blogspot.com/2012/09/almond-polenta-cake-with-elderflower.html
Almond Polenta Cake with Elderflower Honey Glaze. When the urge to bake arises, this simple cake with a moist but slightly crunchy texture can be made and eaten within 2 hours. It is a sweeter cousin of cornbread; incidentally it’s also gluten–free. The glaze contains a bit of liqueur, but the alcohol burns off when heating it…so it’s ok for the kiddos too! Recipe inspired by Nigel Slater. 1 cup butter, room temperature (more to grease the pan). 2 2/3 cup almond meal (Trader Joe’s is best bet! When the c...
