Having been on a strict candida diet for a time now, I've come to appreciate the gift of vegetables. This recipe has become my stand-by substitute for bread! They're delicious with just butter, or as little 'wraps' for fillings like chicken salad or cold meatloaf with mayonnaise (yum!). I also like to butter them, sprinkle cinnamon and stevia (sugar or honey if you do that), and consider myself having a 'cinnamon roll' treat!
I've also substituted part of the cauliflower with a peeled, cubed turnip. Another way to get more good veggies in your diet with little appreciable change in flavor.
Blender Cauliflower Pancakes
First, dice raw cauliflower and place in your blender until 3/4 full or so. This is usually equivalent to a medium head.
Then add 1/4-1/2 tsp. salt and 6 eggs.
Blend for minute to a smooth batter. Spoon onto a greased, preheated griddle and bake for a few minutes until they start to look set. Turn and continue baking. I usually turn them two or three times to make sure they are fully baked.
These refrigerate well for two or three days.
Enjoy!
Carrot-Apple Cookies
This is one of our favorite HEALTHY cookies! When my daughter was little, I always tried to have these on hand, knowing it was a snack that was good for her. This recipe can always be adapted for gluten-free diets by substituting a mix of GF flours and adding 1 tsp. xanthan gum. These are chewy with a taste reminiscent of carrot cake. Enjoy!
