Blueberry Pie

I absolutely love healthy treats when using superfood ingredients.
Food is meant to nourish and heal the body. Choosing foods that are high in nutritional value gives you more bang for your buck.
I love trying out new recipes. It allows me to be creative and come up with new ideas.
Kristen baked this wonderful blueberry pie. It is high in antioxidants and offers a ton of health benefits as it is high in vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, and fiber.
The nutrients in blueberries help to fight against the aging process, protect against cancer, boosts brain health, keeps the heart healthy, keeps the skin clear and glowing, supports healthy digestion, and supports and aids in healthy weight maintenance and weight loss.
She baked this blueberry pie for her father’s birthday and it was a complete hit!
Try it out. Enjoy!
This pie is Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, Nut-Free, Dairy-Free and Vegan.

Chocolate Zucchini Loaf

ChocolateZucchiniLOAFsliced

Wasting food is a pet peeve of mine.
I grew up in a very humble household, where we were taught to appreciate food and eat everything that was on our plate.
We weren’t aloud to leave the table until we did. I had so many zucchini’s that I needed to do something with them!
I decided to bake a GF/GF, Dairy-Free, Paleo Chocolate Zucchini Loaf.
This bread is nut-free, too! Just skip the nut topping.
Truthfully, this is one of my favorite breads I have ever baked. It is not too sweet, and it has just enough chocolate to make you smile.
I topped my slice with a scoop of coconut yogurt, a drizzle of cinnamon maca almond butter, a sprinkle of organic unsweetened shredded coconut, organic raw cacao nibs, and a few organic raspberries.
I hope you enjoy!

Food brings the family together.
Luckily, I love to bake!
It warms the hearts of everyone around me, including my own.
There is something special about the love put into the prepping and cooking process.
I want to make sure the people I am serving enjoy it, and can feel my love through my cooking.


Here is the recipe:
2 and 1/2 cups almond flour
1 and 1/2  cups grated zucchini
2 cups organic raw cacao powder
4 Tbsp coconut oil
4 eggs
1/2 cups honey (if vegan, use maple syrup)
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp Salt

Kristen and I had so much fun baking these muffins together! We wanted to bake a muffin that was both nutritious and delicious at the same time. We thought to add some greens, just enough to nourish the body with vitamins and minerals as well as add fiber, and added banana to give it a sweet touch. It came out perfectly! Just as we imagined, but with a little more fun! Our muffins and recipes are always made with love.

Plantain Banana Peanut Butter Bread

I asked one of my friends to pick up bananas at the store so we can bake some banana bread.
She came back with about 10 plantains.
I hysterically laughed.
She honestly believed she bought bananas.
We fell to the floor laughing for about 10 minutes.
Once that was done, we questioned what the heck we were going to do with all of these plantains?!
Well, here we go!
This is where Plantain Banana Peanut Butter Bread was born!
So, just to clear the air… I haven’t prepared plantains in about 15 years!
So this was a challenge.
A challenge I was ready to take because I always LOVE a good challenge.
This bread is amazing.

Ingredients:
2 ripe plantains, yellow with black spots
2 very ripe bananas
1 cup PB2 powder
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup cassava flour
3 T melted coconut oil
2 Tbsp honey (if vegan, use maple syrup)
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp baking soda
