Almond flour bread gf dairy free
Easy, but next time I need to cook it longer than the recipe called for, as the bottom was not quite done, and so I had to put it back in the oven which in turn made it crumble somewhat. I think I measured my flour incorrectly! I think I accidentally put 1&1/2 cups of each flour which is incorrect 😜
Ingredients
1&1/4 cups almond flour
1&1/2 cups chickpea flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1&3/4 cup water
Optional: 1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 F
Mix dry ingredients. Add water and mix well. Pour into a 9” bread pan that has either been oiled or covered with parchment paper.
Cook about 45 minutes ( me probably longer?) or until toothpicks clean with only a few crumbs. Mine was clean but the bottom wasn’t really done at first, but could be because I incorrectly measured the flour.

Irish stew (vegetarian) slow cooker
I liked this best the next day. Nice dish for lunch and goes well with Irish soda bread or almond crackers or whatever. However I feel it needs some additions for more flavor. I may try this with some added turnips.

Tempeh Bolognese
Very tasty way to have tempeh! Recipe found here:
https://minimalistbaker.com/1-pan-tempeh-bolognese/
I actually prefer an immersion blender instead of a grater for the tempeh. The above photo was grated and it fell in chunks. Later I used the blender to grind it up nicely.

Greek yogurt cake
I cooked mine in a 7 inch round container:
You line it with crinkled parchment paper. They tell you to cook it until browned on top. It shrinks after cooking. I cooked mine 65 minutes— would cook less in an 8” one. But next time I will cook mine less.
Ingredients
1&1/2 cups full fat Greek yogurt ( plain, unflavored)
4 eggs
5 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla optional
Directions
Mix yogurt by itself until smooth. Sift in cornstarch and sugar. Mix. Whip in the 4 eggs until very creamy. Add vanilla if desired.
Note: some add vanilla or lemon or cinnamon— each separately would be fun to try. I would like to try some lemon juice.
Place in parchment lined container 7-8 inches wide. Make sure it has some height like a springform cheesecake pan because it rises.
Cook in preheated 350 degree oven for 50-65 minutes until it starts browning on top. I actually think mine would be creamier if I had cooked mine for 60 instead of 65, but it would not have been browned on the top.
Remove from oven —Lift out of the pan by holding onto the parchment paper and let cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate at least 2 hours. They say when serving let it sit at room temp for 15 minutes after taking out of refrigerator.
You can go to link for more details— here is how mine looked after it shrunk from cooling at room temperature:
We served ours with chocolate syrup. Would be really good with strawberries or caramel sauce!!😍😄 would be good served with some fresh plain yogurt that was mixed with vanilla and sugar—spreading over the top just before serving. Some sprinkle powdered sugar over the top. Cherry pie filling would be good served on top! (Actually I have tried it with cherry pie filling but I really prefer it without---still experimenting ;-)
