These Grain-Free and totally AIP elimination phase friendly biscuits are fabulous with jam, a schmear of ghee or even sausage gravy, but I thought why not sweeten them up a bit and top them with some roasted strawberries and creamy coconut whip and boy was I not wrong. It was absolutely delicious and approved by the whole family.
Read MoreRemember waffles? The crispy fluffy vessels for butter and syrup…yeah me neither. Its been a hot minute since I had anything that resembled a real waffle. I got burned out on trying all of the best AIP waffles only to have them fall flat in all their soggy shame. Sometimes I try to tweak an existing recipe until it suits my taste, but didn’t feel like I’d gotten anywhere and kind of gave up. Well that is, until recently when I just happened to blend the right mix of flours while trying to achieve something else (which was a total flop btw) but the super crisp drip off the pan got me thinking, lets try to waffle this, and the rest is history. These waffles, like a true buttermilk waffle, are super crisp on the outside, even after they’ve sat on the counter for a few minutes. They freeze excellently and come back to life in the toaster. Real food eggo’s, thats something I can get behind.

Read MoreI took a poll over on instagram, the biggest recipe request my AIP folks have is Mashed Potatoes, and as an Idahoan I totally get it! When you go from russett potatoes to sweet potatoes (not to be confused with yams, you can read more about the difference in this great Serious Eats article)
Read MoreBoy that feels weird to say, and to be honest I don’t know that I will ever truly give up on my quest for the perfect AIP Pie Crust. As someone who used to do a lot of baking commissions, a puffed and flaky all-butter pie crust was the pinnacle of pie prowess. A flaky all butter pie crust is three things, all purpose flour, butter and a little bit of water, making it gluten free/grain free and dairy free was no short leap. Paleo folks got the good end of the stick here, almond flour pie crusts are pretty legit, but more and more nutrition conscious folks are trying to eliminate oxidized PUFA’s from their diet, which means nuts have to be raw and whole, and most require eggs as a binder.
Read MoreI’ve started calling this “choose your own adventure” bread because the base recipe is so versatile you can literally sub in almost anything that has a loose solid texture (i.e. mashed banana, pumpkin puree, applesauce…I’m sure there are more)
Read MoreAny light meat will pair nicely with this lemongrass “soy” marinade. While it could be made with traditional soy sauce or tamari, AIP and Paleo folks will likely already have coconut aminos on hand. I tolerate soy sauce in limited quantities, but have become accustomed to keeping coconut aminos on hand. I generally keep all the ingredients in this recipe on hand at most times, so this meal is convenient any day of the week with its quick marinade.
Read MoreI know it sounds nutty to call this a peanut-free peanut sauce, but sometimes the shoe fits. For all of my peanut avoidant friends who are also eliminating tree-nuts and craving that peanutty flavor that is so ubiquitous to Southeast Asian cuisine I’ve got just the recipe for you! I haven’t yet figured out how to make this happy accident a good sub for a PB and J, but if you’re in the market for something to dip a skewer or spring roll in this is just what the doctor ordered.
