This week discovered me testing a bunch of tasty new recipes, like one-pot lentil stew and a vegan milk chocolate, in addition to an allergy-friendly revamp of an previous favorite—my Chia Energy Doughnuts with a grain-free twist (sadly, these received off to a shaky begin as I forgot baking powder within the first two trials…whoops!). I’ll you'll want to share any successes that I've within the close to future. By the way in which, do you may have any Valentine’s Day recipe requests? I’d love to listen to them whereas I’m brainstorming a couple of concepts subsequent week.
Q1. I’m making an attempt to chop out all refined sugars. The one sweeteners I wish to use are uncooked honey and maple syrup. Do you may have any recipes for selfmade milk sweets that may be sweetened naturally?
A. Hey Darlene, My Crazy Good Coconut Oil “Chocolate” Bark is admittedly good and sweetened with maple syrup. It’s not a “milk” chocolate, although you can attempt including some soy or coconut milk powder for the same model. I’ve been testing some milk chocolate recipes and can you'll want to share if I make one I like!
Q2. Hello! I'm in love along with your 8-Minute Pantry Dal: Two Ways and it’s on common rotation in our home. I’m beginning to consider Passover, which for a lot of doesn't allow any beans, lentils, chickpeas, soy and so forth. Do you suppose I may make this with out the lentils?
A. Hey Andrea, I believe my Pantry Dal can positively be made lentil-less with a little bit of adjustment! I’d recommend decreasing the broth (because the lentils gained’t be soaking it up as they prepare dinner), and including one other veggie—perhaps cauliflower rice to thicken the dal instead of lentils.
Q3. Hello Angela, I noticed on Insta Tales that you just posted an up to date model of your Whole-Grain Carrot Cake Loaf with a more healthy lemon glaze to your recipe app. Is there any likelihood you may put up this up to date recipe in a weblog put up too?

This fall. I'm having bother discovering white spelt flour. The place do you get it, is there an internet supply?
A. Hey Dale, It could possibly have a pair completely different names from what I’ve seen. I’ve seen it referred to as “all-purpose spelt flour” in addition to “mild” or “white” spelt flour. Sure, you should purchase it on-line from numerous websites. I purchase a Canadian model referred to as Oak Manor from a grocery retailer referred to as Natural Storage. In case you’re excited about making my Whole-Grain Carrot Cake Loaf, you’ll discover the recipe works splendidly utilizing whole-grain spelt flour (which is a bit simpler to seek out) as an alternative. In a pinch, another choice is likely to be to sift whole-grain spelt flour with a sifter to refine its texture.
