Grain Free Sandwich Bread:

Simple Raspberry Jam:

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Bread Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees ºF.

Mix all dry ingredients together. Mix all wet ingredients together in a separate bowl. Then mix the wet and dry together. Grease a bread pan with coconut oil, then add in mixture.

Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool, remove from pan, best when served toasted.

Raspberry Jam Directions:

Mash raspberries together in a saucepan and stir over low heat. Stir in chia seeds and honey. When mixture is well combined, remove from heat and let sit for 15 minutes, stirring on occasion. The chia seeds will absorb moisture and bind the jam together after 15 to 20 minutes.

Servings: about 20 pieces
Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Preheat oven to 300 degrees ºF.

Process everything in a food processor, adding water until you have a thick batter (thicker than pancake batter). When you have the consistency you want spread it on a silicon sheet or parchment paper and bake.

Bake in preheated oven for about 30 minutes per side, but watch it closely! Use common sense and don’t burn them. Or use a lower oven temp/longer duration than 300 ºF, i.e. 200 ºF.

Servings: 8

  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup almond flour*
  • 1/3-1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 pastured eggs
  • 3/4 cup full fat coconut milk**
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup fresh organic blueberries* (or more if you prefer)

Icing:

  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 4-5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/8 cup non-dairy milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees ºF.

Combine the flours, sugar, salt and soda in a bowl and set aside.

Beat the eggs, coconut milk and lemon juice in a large bowl.

Combine the flour with the wet ingredients and the zest and mix until all of the clumps are out. Fold in the blueberries.

Bake in preheated oven for about 30 minutes

For the icing:

Place all of the ingredients in a blender and combine. Drizzle over the bars once they have cooled.

Variations

Any berry or combination of berries would work in here. I would cut any berry besides blueberries into smaller pieces.

*You can grind your own almond flour by placing whole almonds in a blender/food processor and blending until you get a fine meal.

** For the freshest coconut milk make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees ºF.
