Coconut Banana Cupcakes:

French Buttercream Frosting:

Coconut Banana Cupcakes:

Preheat oven to 350 °F

Cream butter, coconut oil, sugar and honey together in a large bowl or stand mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract and mix thoroughly. Add bananas and mash with a potato masher until small lumps remain.

In a large bowl, combine coconut flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add wet mixture to dry mixture and stir until just combined.

Spoon into cupcake molds and bake until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 10-12 minutes.

Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before frosting.

French Buttercream Frosting:

Add sugar and water to a small saucepan and cook over low heat until sugar has dissolved and it reaches 238 °F. If you don’t have a candy thermometer, cook until it reaches soft ball stage.

In a stand mixer combine egg yolks and salt. Beat on medium-low until light yellow and fluffy. Continue to mix while adding the sugar syrup (pour it in a slow stream near the side of the mixer.) Beat on high speed until the mixture is very light colored, fluffy, and has cooled to body temperature.

Mix in butter and coconut oil to frosting one tablespoon at a time. Once all the butter and coconut oil is incorporated, add vanilla extract and mix gently. Spoon into a piping bag and frost cupcakes. Garnish with chopped or shredded coconut as desired.

Servings: 12
Preparation Time: 20 minutes

Filling:

  • 6-8 large dates, soaked in hot water for 30 minutes
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Dough:

Glaze:

Preheat oven to 325 °F

For the filling, add hydrated dates + a few teaspoons date water and cinnamon to a mini food processor and puree.  Set aside

Whisk together the eggs, coconut oil, vanilla, and honey (or maple syrup) in a medium bowl.  In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, sugar and salt.  Then combine dry and wet ingredients to form dough.

Roll out the dough on parchment paper and create a long rectangle.  Spread the date and cinnamon mixture evenly across the rolled out dough and sprinkle with finely chopped pecan pieces. Using the parchment paper, carefully roll up the dough into a log.  Use a sharp knife to cut 1-inch thick rolls.

Place sliced cinnamon rolls on a baking sheet covered in parchment paper. Bake for about 15-18 minutes – until lightly brown.

Remove from oven and drizzle with prepared glaze + sprinkle with reserved pecans.

Best served warm!

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

Servings: 8

Preparation Time: 2 hours

The Crust Cups:

The Filling:

  • 1 cup raw almonds – must be soaked for at least 4 hours & drained before use
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot starch
  • 2 tablespoon raw honey
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

Tip:  The filling can be made the day before to give it more time to set up.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees °F

Crust Cups:

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot starch and salt.  Cut in shortening, vanilla and honey until crumbly.  Slowly pour in milk until mixture forms a dough ball – adding more milk if necessary.

Press pieces of dough into greased muffin tins.  Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until slightly brown.  Remove from oven and let cool completely.

Filling:

In a high powered blender, combine ingredients for filling and puree at least 3 minutes or until completely smooth.  The longer you blend, the less grainy the texture will be.

Refrigerate filling for at least 2 hours.

Spoon a dollop of filling into each prepared cup and top with drizzled chocolate, cocoa powder or berries.  Enjoy!

Servings: 15
Preparation Time:  45 minutes

Rolls:

  • 1 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1 cup arrowroot starch
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup palm shortening or coconut oil

Filling:

Berry Glaze:

Chocolate Drizzle:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot starch, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add in shortening or coconut oil and mix until dough becomes crumbly. Pour in vinegar, milk and vanilla. Stir until combined and dough ball starts to form. Place a large piece of wax paper on counter and dust lightly with almond flour or arrowroot starch. Place dough onto wax paper and sprinkle additional arrowroot powder or flour on top.

Using a rolling pin, carefully roll out dough into a large 1/4″ rectangle. In a small bowl, stir together honey and coconut oil for filling. Spread oil mixture evenly over dough and sprinkle with cinnamon. Carefully roll up dough into a log – you can use the wax paper to help if dough is very fragile. Quickly slice dough into about 1″ rolls and place in a greased baking pan. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until rolls are starting to brown. Remove from oven and let cool about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine berry glaze ingredients in a small blender and blend until very smooth. Add more beet juice for a darker color. In a small bowl, combine chocolate drizzle ingredients and stir until smooth. Pour berry glaze over cooled rolls and top with chocolate drizzle. Store any leftovers in a sealed container.

Servings: 6
Preparation Time:  25-30 minutes

Crust:

Filling:

  • 1/2 cup yellow onion chopped (1/2 inch)
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 1/2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 3/4 teaspoons cumin
  • 1/2 coconut cream concentrate
  • 12 cups your favorite veggie (I have used sweet potato, asparagus, zucchini, corn, all have been delicious…experiment and share how it turned out!)
  • 2 small potatoes, cubed 1/2 inch
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced
  • 1/2 cup peas
  • 1/2 cup broccoli
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour (or as needed to thicken)

Dough:

Mix almond and coconut flour with the salt, then slowly fold in softened butter until it crumbles.  Stir in water by the tablespoon and mix dough thoroughly by hand.  Once dough is mixed, divide in half and roll into balls.  Cover or wrap balls and put in fridge.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees ºF.
Saute onions in coconut oil until they become translucent.  Heat vegetable broth in a medium pot and bring to a boil.  Once boiling add cumin and lower head to medium.  Add coconut cream concentrate.  Add vegetables to mixture and let simmer 15 minutes stirring frequently.

While mixture is simmering take 1/2 the dough and push down into the dish fairly thin and up the sides covering the dish.  Roll out remaining dough to cover top and set aside.  Fill the dish with rolled out dough making sure to fill any cracks.

Once mixture has simmered and dough is rolled out add coconut flour to mixture to thicken the liquid.  Pour mixture into dish.  Take rolled top and lay over dish.  If some cracks or falls apart that’s ok just press it back together and fill in cracks.  Press edges together.  Place in oven for 20-30 minutes or until dough is golden brown around edges.

Notes:

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

  • If you want to make this recipe completely vegan just substitute earth balance for butter.  Also coconut oil may work, but I haven’t tried it yet.
  • I use frozen broccoli florets and frozen peas to save time and it turns out great.
