Preparation Time: 30 minutes

S’mores Coffee:

Maple Marshmallow Cream:

Maple Marshmallow Cream:

Beat the egg whites and the cream of tartar with a mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.

Place the maple syrup and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Continue boiling until mixture reaches 240 °F (soft ball stage) to form a syrup. When the syrup reaches 240 °F, slowly start to drizzle the syrup into the beaten egg whites to warm them. Gradually add the remainder of the syrup to the egg whites, while continuing to beat the mixture on medium high for about 7 minutes. Add the vanilla and mix until cream is stiff and glossy, another 1 or 2 minutes.

This mixture makes several cups of marshmallow cream. It will last several days in the refrigerator.

S’mores Coffee:

Warm the coconut milk in a small saucepan. Place hot coffee, warm milk, Coconut Cream Concentrate, chocolate chips, coconut oil, cocoa powder and cinnamon into a blender and blend for 20-30 seconds on high speed.

Pour blended coffee into 1 or 2 mugs and add marshmallow cream and graham cracker sticks, if desired.

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

Healthy Cinnamon Stars with Coconut Frosting
photo by recipe author

 

These are traditional Christmas cookies in Switzerland. They’re called cinnamon stars and are usually coated with sugar frosting. This recipe offers is a healthy alternative for both the cookie and the frosting.

Preparation Time:  60 minutes

For the cookies:

  • 80 grams dried apple
  • 40 grams ground hazelnuts
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

For the frosting:

Place the dried apple pieces in your food processor, then transfer into a bowl. Mix in the hazelnuts and the cinnamon, blend together well with a spoon or your hands.

Now carefully add water until you get a dough. It doesn’t need much.

Roll the dough and cut out star shaped cookies. Put them on a dehydrator sheet and let them dehydrate for about 2 hours. This step isn’t necessary but cures them.

For the frosting heat up the coconut butter until it is has a peanut butter-like consistency. Mix it with the honey and water and spread it on the cookies.

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.
