Sugar Free Kefir Pumpkin Einkorn Bread

Wednesday, September 28, 2016

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2016 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




This sugar-free, oil/butter free lightened-up wholesome quick pumpkin bread uses the nutritious ancient grain-Einkorn, to add a nutty flavour and kefir for a moist, fluffy texture. If you can't find einkorn, wholegrain spelt flour would be a nice alternative.
Einkorn flour is an ancient wheat grain that’s healthier than traditional whole wheat. That’s partly due to its much lower gluten content, and while it’s not gluten-free, it’s much more easily digested and often fine for most people with gluten intolerance symptoms to eat. However, it’s not safe for anyone who has diagnosed celiac disease.

  • 150 g Homemade pumpkin puree
  • 2 Large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten
  • 150 g Kefir
  • 2 tbsp Pure stevia syrup
  • 160 g Einkorn berries, ground into flour
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 1 tsp Vanilla powder
  • 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • 50 g Dark chocolate chips
  1. Preheat the oven to 190C/350F. Lightly grease and line a 21cmx11cm loaf pan.
  2. Place pumpkin puree, eggs, kefir and stevia syrup in a mixing bowl. Stir until well combined and smooth.
  3. Add in einkorn flour, baking soda, vanilla powder, and ground cinnamon. Stir until just incorporated. Now gently fold in 2/3 of the chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Top with the rest of chocolate chips and bake for 45 minutes.
  4. Remove and cool in pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!

Kaniwa Salad with Roasted Hokkaido and Fig

Wednesday, September 21, 2016

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2016 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




http://schneiderchen.de | © 2016 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Kaniwa is, like quinoa, an ancient grain that grows in Peru and Bolivia. It is about half the size of quinoa but otherwise quite similar. It’s an excellent source of protein and amino acids, and exceptionally high in fiber, iron, and calcium and is also gluten-free like quinoa. Enjoy it in salads, soups or as the stuffing. However, one major difference between the two is that kaniwa doesn’t have saponins that gives quinoa a soapy, slightly bitter flavour if not rinsed properly.

  • 150 g Kaniwa
  • 300 ml Water
  • 2 Ripe yet firm figs
  • 300 g Hokkaido pumpkin, diced and roasted
  • Handful of red basil leaves, chopped
  • A bunch of chives, chopped
  • 4 Spring onions, white part only, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Truffle oil
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 3 tbsp White balsamic vinegar
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
  1. Combine the kaniwa with water in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil, then lower the heat, cover, and simmer gently for about 15 minutes, until the water is absorbed.
  2. Transfer to a bowl and allow them to cool to room temperature. Add the remaining ingredients and toss together. Place them over cabbage leaves or greens and serve immediately.
