Spelt Emmer Twisted Bread with Almond Butter

Thursday, January 26, 2017

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2017 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com



The homemade almond butter between layers of soft dough makes this sweet yeast bread absolutely irresistible and perfect for breakfast or brunch. It is so easy to make and versatile-feel free to use any nut butter, chocolate spread or pesto for a savoury version.

  • 350 g Spelt bread flour
  • 100 g Emmer wholemeal flour
  • 20 g Coconut sugar
  • 25 g Fresh yeast
  • 180 ml Coconut drink ( I used Alpro)
  • 30 g Coconut oil
  • 2 Small eggs, beaten
  • 320 g Homemade almond butter
  1. Combine spelt bread flour, wholemeal emmer flour and coconut sugar in the bowl of your mixer. Make a well in the center.
  2. Heat the coconut drink until warm and add in coconut oil. Stir until melted and combined. Dissolve the fresh yeast in the coconut drink.
  3. Add yeast mixture and eggs, reserving 1 tablespoon to brush, to the well of the flour mixture. Mix on low speed until combined. Increase the speed and knead until elastic and soft, about 7 minutes. Put the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic film or a clean tea towel and let rise until doubled in size, anywhere from 1 to 2 hours.
  4. Punch down the dough and divide into 8 portions and shape each into a ball. Roll each dough out to a 15-cm disc. Spread 40 grams of nut butter over the dough, leaving a 1-cm border. Roll up and press edge to seal. Using a sharp knife, cut roll in half lengthwise. With the cut sides facing up, press together one end of each half, one over the other, and continue until you have ‘braided’ the entire roll.
  5. Place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the rest of the dough balls. Cover with a tea towel and let rise a second time for approximately about 45 minutes.
  6. Preheat the oven 190C/375F. Brush the Bake the braided bread in the hot oven for about 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Rotate the tray halfway through cooking time, if needed, to ensure even baking.

These deliciously 'clean' breakfast cookies are wholesome make-ahead treats packed with oats, hazelnuts, emmer flour, flaxseed, almond butter, chocolate chips and lightly sweetened with maple syrup. Emmer flour can be substituted with oat flour or gluten-free flour mix to make this recipe gluten-free. Pour a glass of coconut milk, or brew a pot of steaming hot tea and enjoy!

  • 100 g Hazelnut meal
  • 50 g Flaxseed meal
  • 150 g Rolled oats
  • 35 g Emmer flour
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon powder
  • 160 g Almond butter
  • 30 ml Flaxseed oil
  • 80 g Maple syrup
  • 1 Large ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 Large egg
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 50 g Raisins
  • 60 g Dark chocolate chips
  1. Preheat oven to 190C/375F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Mix the hazelnut meal, flaxseed meal, rolled oats, emmer flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
  2. Combine the almond butter, flaxseed oil, maple syrup, mashed banana, egg, and vanilla extract in a blender and process a few seconds until well blended.
  3. Transfer the almond butter mixture to a large bowl and fold in the raisins and chocolate chips. Mix the oat nut mixture into the almond butter mixture. The dough will be thick.
  4. Scoop up heaping teaspoons of dough and form into balls. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and flatten the cookies with a spatula. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheets before removing to finish cooling on wire racks.

The flavours of almond milk, coconut, raisin and poppy seed pair nicely in these jumbo spelt muffins, that are sweetened with erythritol and coconut sugar. Feel free to substitute spelt flour with the regular wheat flour.
Erythritol is a sugar substitute that looks and tastes like sugar, yet has almost no calories. It is available in both granulated and powdered forms. It is approximately 70% as sweet as sucrose and is safe for people with diabetes.

Poppy Coconut FillingBatter
  • 350 ml Almond milk
  • 30 g Coconut sugar
  • 70 g Erythritol

  • 200 g Spelt pastry flour
  • 80 g Wholegrain spelt flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp Baking soda
  • 50 g Coconut sugar
  • 50 g Erythritol
  • 1/3 tsp Salt
  • 50 g Olive oil
  • 2 Small eggs
  • 220 ml Kefir
  1. Place almond milk, coconut sugar, erythritol, lemon zest, cinnamon, coconut oil, ground poppy seeds, coconut flakes in a saucepan. Bring it to a simmer. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes. Stir in raisins. Preheat the oven to 190C/375F.
  2. Whisk together flours, baking soda, coconut sugar, erythritol and salt in a mixing bowl. In another bowl, whisk together olive oil, eggs and kefir until well combined.
  3. Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in the egg mixture. Mix until just incorporated. Divide half of the batter into 6 jumbo muffin cups or 10 regular ones. Fill each muffin with 1 tablespoon of poppy mixture. Save the rest of the filling for other recipes. Now cover them with the rest of batter.
  4. Bake the muffins in the middle of the hot oven for 30 minutes if using the jumbo muffin pan, and 20 minutes for a regular one, until nicely golden brown.

Einkorn Almond Linzer Cookies

Wednesday, December 21, 2016

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



These jam-filled Linzer cookies satisfy the sweet craving and just happen to be healthy because of the use of wholegrain einkorn flour and stevia-sweetened jam. The Linzer cookie, originated in the city of Linz, is based on the Linzertorte, one of the most famous and beloved holiday classics in Austria.

Einkorn Almond Linzer Cookies

adapted from Küchen Götter
  • 150 g Blanched almonds, ground
  • 150 g Einkorn berries, milled into flour
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon powder
  • 1/2 tsp Clove powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 150 g Butter, softened
  • 50 g Powdered sugar
  • 1 Egg, medium
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla powder
  • Stevia sweetened strawberry jam for filling
  • Powdered sugar for dusting
  1. Whisk together the ground almonds, einkorn flour, cinnamon, clove and salt in a bowl.
  2. Beat butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla powder and egg. Finally beat in flour mixture on low speed until the dough starts to come together. Place onto a work surface lightly dusted with flour and shape into a flat disk. Wrap in a plastic and chill for 2 hours.
  3. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll the dough between 2 sheets of baking paper to 3-mm thick and cut out cookies with a 5-cm heart-shaped cutter. Place them on the prepared baking sheets. Use a smaller round cookie cutter to cut out the centers of half of the cookies on the baking sheet. Reroll any scraps and cut out the remaining cookies. You will have 70 cookies. Chill for 15 minutes.
  4. Preheat the oven to 150C/300F. Bake cookies, one sheet at time, until edges are golden, 10 minutes. Let cookies cool on sheet 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to a rack to cool completely. Spread jam on the flat side of each solid cookie. Dust the top of the cut-out cookies with powdered sugar and press the flat sides together.

These gluten-free seedy muffins make a great breakfast or snack, are actually perfect for any time of day. We even enjoyed it as dinner with a large plate of salad. You can of course bake these healthy treats without saffron, but a little saffron goes a long way. Barberries add tanginess, fruity aroma to these muffins and pair so well with saffron and clove. Dried cranberries or cherries would make a good substitute.

Coconut Mincemeat Filo Snails

Wednesday, December 07, 2016

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





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


These Christmas filo snails with homemade boozy mincemeat are simple, straight-forward, vegan-friendly, and, best of all, taste amazing!
Mincemeat is a mixture of chopped dried fruit, booze, and spices that is popular in the UK and traditionally served around Christmas. Originally, mincemeat always contained meat ((hence the name) while modern recipes contain beef suet (fat around the kidney of the animal), which I have replaced with coconut oil. This mincemeat can be used straight away, but it improves with age and it will store well for up to 6 months in a cool place.

Coconut Mincemeat Filo Snails

Inspired by this
Mincemeat
    adapted from Alchemy in the Kitchen
  • 200 g Apple, grated
  • 250 g Raisins
  • 250 g Sultanas
  • 200 g Dried cranberries
  • 100 g Coconut sugar
  • 100 g Dates, chopped
  • 100 g Walnuts, finely chopped
  • 1/4 tsp Ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of ground clove
  • 125 g Coconut oil
  • Grated peel and juice of 1 large orange
  • Grated peel and juice of 1 lemon
  • 6 tbsp Apple Schnapps
  • 2 tbsp Brandy
  • 6 Filo sheets
  • 4 tbsp Coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tbsp Black sesame seeds
  1. Place everything, except brandy, in your slow cooker and cook for 3-4 hours on low. Or mix all the ingredients, except brandy, together in a large oven proof dish with a lid. Cover and place in the preheated oven and cook gently for 3 hours, stirring every half hour or so.
  2. When done, allow it to cool, stirring briefly every half hour until cold. Finally, stir the brandy into the cold mixture before sealing in clean, dry jars. You need half of batch for this filo recipe. Save the rest for other recipes, for example, mincemeat pies.
  3. Lay 1 sheet of filo on the workbench, brush with a little melted coconut oil and place another sheet on top, then brush with coconut oil again. Place 200 grams of the mincemeat along the longest side. Roll pastry to enclose filling, then coil into a snail shape. Place on a baking paper-lined baking tray and brush with a little more coconut oil. Repeat with remaining filo, coconut oil and mincemeat to make 3 snails. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for 20 minutes until crisp and golden.

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




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


Kefir gives a lovely, light texture to these crisp einkorn scones. If you have a nut allergy, simply use more einkorn in the dough and leave out the mix-in hazelnuts. They are especially good warm from the oven, and you can enjoy this scone on its own or smother them with some homemade jam for a great breakfast.

  2. Cut in butter into the flour mixture with a pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gently stir in the cranberries and hazelnuts. Add in kefir and stir until just combined. Do not over mix.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough gently, 5 to 10 times. Pat into a 1-inch-thick round. Cut into 8 wedges and place them on a baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Brush the top of the scones with a little kefir. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack.
