Berry Cobbler

First things first... many thanks to Everydaypaleo.com for all the awsome goodnes in your recipe book! This one came from Everyday Paleo cookbook... as ususal, I added my own little spin, because I can! ;-)


Berry Cobbler
3 cups of fresh blackberries, raspberries, blueberries... whatever combination of berries you want!
1 1/2 cups almond meal ( or finely ground almonds)
1 omega 3 enriched egg
2 tbsp coconut oil  ( I prefer palm shortening, as it is flavorless)
A drizzle of raw organic honey ( I used about a Tablespoon, melted)
Cinnamon to taste
“So Delicious” coconut milk  ( I used homemaed whipped cream)

Preheat oven to 350. Pour the berries into a pie pan. In a small bowl mix together the egg, almond meal, and coconut oil, and shake in a bunch of cinnamon. Stir well. The mixture will be really thick and clumpy. If you wish, drizzle a bit of raw organic honey on top of the blackberries. By hand (or if you have a 2 year old to help you, that works just as well…) crumble the almond meal mixture on top of the blackberries and bake in your pre-heated oven for 35 minutes. Serve in bowls with cold “So Delicious” brand coconut milk poured over the top. Yes, it’s addicting, but life’s too short to not eat cobbler now and then…

Note: I substituted heavy whipping cream w a tsp. of Vanilla extract and served as whipped cream.. (as we allow heavy cream, occasionally in our diet) this should only be used as a "special treat".

German Apple Pancakes

Who knew this could be soo much fun! Trying a new recipe pretty much everyday creates a sense of adventure and accomplishment that I never thought I would find in cooking....... I usually despise spending so much time in the kitchen.  Just goes to show, You become/accomplish what you focus on... Focus on how hard  this Paleo thing is... and it will be! Focus on how easy and fun this Paleo thing can be, and it IS! Amazing....
OK, enough of the "fluff" to help motivate you..... Just make these amazing German Apple Pancakes and you'll fall into the cult easily!!
