Well, if I'm going to invite myself over, I may as well bring something along to share and eat. I did after all volunteer her to host me.
But what can I make? She cannot have wheat or diary, so creativity is required to make something.
Loaf. I can stir in nuts, seeds, and dried fruits along with spices to make something incredible.
RECIPE: Loaf
Ingredients
2 cups flour (or chickpea flour)
4 tsp baking powder
pinch salt
nutmeg
green cardamom
1 can coconut milk (or 1 1/3 cups milk)
5 large eggs
vanilla
nuts, seeds, dried fruit
Method
> mix the dry ingredients
> no, there are no quantities for the dry spices - use a bunch, like a teaspoon of each - or whatever you have that will be yummy with the nuts, seeds, and dried fruit (cinnamon, ginger, pumpkin pie spice, chai spiced tea, etc.)
> mix the wet into the dry (eggs, coconut milk, and vanilla or other extract)
> stir in half of the nuts, seeds, and chopped dried fruit you want in the loaf
> split the batter between two lined or buttered loaf pans
> sprinkle the remaining nuts, seeds, and fruit over the tops of the loaves
> bake at 190°C or 375°F for 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out cleanly when poked in
Enjoy with butter, jam, or toasted with maple syrup!!
