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".

Catina's Cookies.....mmm, good!

Day 28 Paleo / Zone Challenge

Busy weekend for me so far....... I haven't had a chance to post anything until now.

Not that I am keepin a score card or anything, but the Paleo world has a new convert!
Welcome Catina! Hoping Cat enjoys all things Paleo! (she was "in the zone" before)
Anyway, Catina is a kick butt chick at OCF in all she does, and apparently, she kicks butt in the baking category too!!
This is her Paleo Cookie recipe she served up at Friday's poker game......... Let me just say one word about these cookies.........YYYYUUUUUUMMMMMM!!!!!!!

Paleo Cookies

Ingredients:
2 cups raw honey
2 cups ground walnuts
4 cups almond flour
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 cup dried fruit (Cat used Raisins)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease cookie sheets, or line with parchment paper. Warm honey in a saucepan. Let mixture cool slightly. Sift together flour and spices. Place honey in mixing bowl; gradually add flour mixture and stir until well blended. Stir in dried chopped fruit.
Roll dough about 1/4-inch thick on a floured board; cut into squares and rectangles with a pastry wheel or sharp knife. (If you prefer, you can also make drop cookies, dropping the dough by teaspoonful.) Bake ten minutes. Makes four dozen.

Making a batch right now.......... I'll let you know how they turn out and post I'll post pics too!
