This cake was inspired by Jennifer Eloff’s “Banana Walnut Bread” found on page 61 of her latest cookbook, Low Carbing Among Friends. Many of you are already familiar with Jennifer’s recipes and previous cookbooks from having discovered her website Splendid Low Carbing with Jennifer Eloff found here: http://low-carb-news.blogspot.com/. I highly recommend spending some time there [...]

Blackberry Flax Muffins
Posted in BREAKFAST FOODS, Muffins, Sweet Breads, SWEETS on January 14, 2012 | 12 Comments »
Blackberries are plentiful in the local stores lately and coming down in price where I am, so I bought a carton yesterday and made these delightful treats today. They were very good and are a pleasant change from the strawberry and blueberry muffins I usually make. These could also be made with raspberries or even [...]
Strawberry Flax Bread

Click pic to enlarge Despite what appears to be a lot of sweetener, this is not a terribly sweet bread. It DID have a very nice texture and flavor. This bread is not suitable for Induction. This can also be made up as muffins: INGREDIENTS: 5 tablespoon butter, melted 5 eggs, beaten 20 drops liquid [...]

Click pic to enlarge I had some freeze-dried blueberries to use up in my pantry so I tried my hand at a blueberry muffin for breakfast today. Originally, I did this as a loaf bread, but it rose so little, I decided to switch to a muffin so they would look nicer. They had [...]
Pumpkin Bread Loaf

This pumpkin bread recipe has quite a dense texture, which I like, and this is now my current favorite pumpkin bread recipe. This is basically my Individual Pumpkin Bread X5 made in a loaf pan. This bread is not terribly sweet, despite what appears to be a fair amount of sweetener. My first attempt was [...]

Click pic to enlarge By tinkering around with the MIM (Muffin in a Minute) recipe that is so well-known to low carbers, I came up with a mini pumpkin bread that is much improved in texture, flavor and moistness over my previous pumpkin bread experiments. Smearing it with my Lime Frosting is fantastic! [...]

Click pic to enlarge Made this for breakfast this morning. It’s my first experiment trying to come up with one of my favorite holiday sweet treats. I started with a basic coconut flour recipe and made a few alterations and additions to make it more like my traditional cranberry bread. Came out pretty good. Not [...]

Click Pic to Enlarge I came across a low-carb Pumpkin Bread recipe I decided to modify. Can’t for the life of me remember where I got it, as I don’t even know when I printed the recipe out. Might have been on the Atkins forum or anywhere on the net. I usually note who the [...]

Click pic to enlarge I came across a recipe on About.com that I modified and the result got a thumbs up from hubby and myself alike. Texture was quite nice, light and the flavor was good also. Original recipe used ALL flax and no CarbQuick, so if still on induction, you could just not use [...]
Banana Almond Bread

Click pic for closer view I recently came up with a tasty almond cake and thought it might make a good base for Banana Bread and tried it out today. Man, was the result ever good! Very close indeed to my decades old recipe for Banana Nut Bread. The lecithin is not absolutely essential, but [...]
Flax No-Banana Bread

Click pic to enlarge I took one of the hundreds of lo-carb bread recipes and “tweaked” it a bit recently into a pretty good banana bread. It was good enough hubby had seconds! You could use walnuts for a variation, but recalculate nutritional info if you do. Suitable for Induction if you leave out the [...]
