Buckwheat Apple and Pecan Muffins
We had our first child just a week or so ago (awesome!) so in preparation for the steady stream of guests I’ve been baking a little. These muffins are quick, easy, moist and according to the first round visitors “don’t taste glutenfree at all”. In addition they’re not overly sweet (as some muffins can be) […]
Baked “Scrambled” Eggs
After years of Maiju pining for another dog I finally relented. So as of a week ago we a new family member. Anyway, whilst I’ve been a bit on the tired and lazy side lately, conversely we’ve had *loads* of visitors. So last Sunday, we had brunch at ours. I love a good brunch eh. […]
Pancakes
Maiju has been down for a few days with laryngitis so to cheer her up last weekend I made her pancakes. 1 egg 1C of milk ½C sugar (optional) about 1C glutenfree flour salt butter Notes: Keep in mind that different flours can absorb fluid in vastly different quantities. That’s why I say about a cup. Just […]
Eggs Benedict with Roasted Portobello Mushrooms and Wilted Spinach
It was Maiju’s bday yesterday, so I thought breaky in bed was in order. Maiju’s fave breaky being my eggs benny. This time round I tweaked things bit and it was damn good. The recipe is essentially the same as last time, but I had the Hollandaise a bit sharper (with added lemon juice) and […]
Buckwheat and Cheddar Blinis
Buckwheat is a strange thing. If you’re not Celiac it’s very likely that you’ve never tried it before. And to us? Well, it’s our version of rye. It basically the only dark, fibrous grain we can eat. For me, the first time I tried buckwheat was a memorable disappointment. To give some context, I should […]
Eggs Benedict and Smoked Salmon
One of the things I miss about NZ is the cafe breakfast culture. Going out for breakfast has become a lot more popular in Finland over the last 5 years (I don’t think there was anywhere you could even go back then) but still it’s not quite on a par with my homeland. Mostly there […]
Roasted Potato, Chilli and Tomato Hash
I’m slightly at a lose at how I should catergorise this recipe. I stumbled upon some smoked paprika the other day and reminded of my most memorable culinary experiences on a trip to Spain, was inspired to through together some kind of potatas bravas thing. Only thing is, I don’t think potatas bravas really goes […]
Homemade Muesli
I’ve discovered that breakfast time is probably the most pain in the arse time to be Celiac. Bread is difficult to get hold of and even at it’s best is no match for wheat or rye bread. And glutenfree mueslies seem so far, to use a bit of vernacular Kiwi, pretty average. I challenge you though, […]
