Paleo Plumb Crumble, sugar free and gluten free

  This is a great zesty plumb cake with crumbles on top, it is similar to the apple sauce cake. The crumbles are crunchy even thought they don't have any sugar in them at all, instead I use Stevia-sweet Baking Granules 1:1. You can use any type of zesty autumn fruit for this recipe, berries, apples, pears etc. What fascinated me about this cake was that my husband generally hates cooked fruit, but this one actually got his approval I made it twice last week. Makes:  14cm wide cake ring or cake pan Prep time: 25 min Cooking: 55min at 180 degree celsius pre heated oven (middle shelf)   For the batter you need: 6 Plumbs de-stoned  (half cut into slices and and the other 1/2 copped into chunks) 4 eggs  Medium ( egg white beaten stiff separately) 100g Almond flour / ground almonds - mixed ground nuts work too. 40g Coconut flour 40g Coconut oil or Butter melted 1/2 tsp Cinnamon sprinkle of Nutmeg 6 tbsp  lemons juice 1/2 tbsp baking powder 1-3  knife-tips Stevia-sweet 90% powder dissolved in 1 table spoons hot water Note: getting the sweetness...

Paleo apple sauce cake sweetened with Stevia

Paleo apple sauce cake sweetened with Stevia

The apple sauce cake is a great autumn recipe to use up spare apples. It is moist and aromatic. It keeps well in the fridge, you can reheat it to bring out the flavour. This is another recipe that is great for people new to using stevia, the spices helps disguise the slight stevia taste that is so often criticised by people expecting a total equivalent to sugar. During new apple season everyone has to make at least one apple cake. For most people apple cake and cream are like a married couple, if you don't do dairy, just whip up the thick part of some coconut milk.   Makes:  15cm diameter pan/ 3.5cm high Prep time: 20 min Cooking: 45min at 180 degree celsius pre heated oven (middle shelf)   You need: 4 eggs  Medium ( egg white beaten stiff separately) 100g Almond flour / ground almonds - mixed ground nuts work too. 50g Coconut flour 1/2 t tsp of baking powder 40g Butter melted or Coconut oil 1/4 tsp Cinnamon 1/5 tsp Ginger 1/5 tsp of Nutmeg 6tbsp  lemons juice 2 medium size, sour apple like...

Strawberry Butter-cream ice candy (sugar free, silky smooth & ketogenic) or Bulletproof Coffee/ Cocoa ice cream

Do you like ice cream? Feel like the only ice cream worth heaving is italian ice cream from the gelateria? You tried numerous home ice cream methods but they go rock solid and by the time you can get the spoon in the stuff is a soggy puddle of liquid again? Don't despair, I may have a solution for you. This recipe makes creamy ice cream you can make at home. This version is based on a butter cream with fresh strawberries blended in. I made little ice cream candies in a ice cube mould. Don't like strawberries in ice cream, try Bulletproof Coffee/ Cocoa ice creams, as mini bite ice-candies or as ice pops. Don't know why Bulletproof coffee is special and health promoting because it does is processed to give you a low-toxin bean? Get the low down here. Once the strawberry version was set I decided since many people think chocolate and strawberries are a good fit, i covered a few frozen...

Who doesn't like a strawberry gateaux? I can't get enough of strawberries, I dread the season to finish, when the berries you can get are from far far away and the taste is poor.
