Yummy Almond Flour Pizza Dough

Thin Crust Pizza (made with almond flour)
This thin crust pizza is made with finely ground, blanched almond flour. But not much almond flour - and there's more cheese and egg in this recipe than a traditional pizza crust.

I make them as individual pizzas, and once they are made I store them in the refrigerator (wrapped in wax paper and plastic - wax paper between each pizza to separate them easily). You can freeze them as well - just seal them to prevent freezer frost. They reheat easily at 325 degrees F for about 8 minutes. And here's a tip: sometimes I make just the pie crust and freeze or refrigerate them for later use.

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups of almond flour
1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese (or another hard cheese, grate finely)
1/4 teaspoon of sea salt
3 tablespoons of olive oil
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon of oregano
1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon of basil (optional)

For the topping:
1 cup or so of tomato sauce (prepared ahead of time by simmering it with herbs)
6 slices of Havarti cheese (or another type of cheese)

Preparation
1. Combine all the wet ingredients and blend well.
2. Add the dry ingredients and blend well.
3. Place parchment paper on two baking or cookie sheets. Place about two heaping spoonfuls of batter across six individual locations on the two cookie sheets (three pies on each sheet). Leave at least an inch of space between each pie crust so you can take it off easily. The pies do not spread while baking.
4. Using a piece of plastic wrap gently placed on top of a spoonful of batter, flatten out the batter with your hand until the pie crust is thin and more or less evenly smoothed over. Gently pull the plastic off of the crust and repeat for each pie.
5. Place the pie crusts in the oven for 11 to 13 minutes.
6. Take the pie crusts out of the oven. You can let them cool and store them for later use in the refrigerator or freezer, or you can go to the next step.
7. Place a large spoonful of tomato sauce on each pie crust, followed by a slice of cheese. And of course, feel free to change the toppings to suit your taste. Other great toppings include pesto, onions, pineapple, and so on.
8. Bake the pies in the same oven at 350 degrees F for 11 to 13 minutes, or until they reach the desired look and taste.
9. Enjoy!

You might use agave nectar just as sweet tasting but does not alter glucose levels. However, just checked and it does have carbs from sugar :-(

Pancakes!!!

Ingredients

2 eggs
2 tablespoons Virgin Coconut Oil or butter, melted
2 tablespoons coconut milk or whole milk (I used cream)
1 teaspoon sugar (I used Splenda instead)
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sifted Organic Coconut Flour (sifting is important)
¼ teaspoon baking powder

Method

Blend together eggs, oil, coconut milk, sugar and salt. Combine coconut flour with baking powder and thoroughly mix into batter. Heat 1 tablespoon (I found this to be a bit much - I would use 1/2 tsp) of coconut oil in a skillet. Spoon batter onto hot skillet making pancakes about 2 ½ to 3 inches in diameter. Batter will be thick, but will flatten out when cooking. Makes about 8 pancakes.

Pecan Pancakes
Make Pancakes as directed above and add ½ cup of chopped pecans.

Blueberry Pancakes

Make Pancakes as directed and, after mixing in the coconut milk, fold in ½ cup of dry fresh blueberries.

Enjoy

It would be nice if we could use the Title Bar
and to say what phase the recipe is for and what the major ingredients are, or major allergens in the recipe. So people can see at a glance whether the recipe is for them or not.

For example:

P3 - Pancakes ( eggs, coconut)
P3 - It's just soooo good, "dessert" shake (strawberries, yogurt)
P3 - Cinnamon Almonds (eggs, almonds, butter)

I know, I forgot to put titles on my last few posts, but it does help since both Phase 2 and Phase 3 people are looking for recipes in here.

Thanks, and thanks for all the delicious sounding recipes.

Oh also if you have pictures, please upload one with your recipe. A picture is worth a thousand words and is mouthwateringly convincing.

You may want to do this in a covered glass dish. They have proven that cooking food in plastic in the microwave causes cancer.

Hey. I don't know about the other flours as they will act differently then the coconut flour does. I can't say that I do know the calorie counts. I have made a conscious decision not to count calories, but rather make sure that I eat nutritious whole foods. Sorry. I do know that there are some really good recipe counters on the net that will tell you the calories buy just imputing the recipes. Thanks

P3 Friendly Red Velvet Cake

Healthy Red Velvet Cake

Serves 8-10

Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted organic butter, softened
9 large eggs
1 cup erythritol
1/4 teaspoon good-tasting pure stevia extract
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup yogurt OR sour cream
1 tablespoon red food coloring
3/4 cup sifted coconut flour
3/4 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder
2 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Set out butter and eggs to bring to room temperature. Alternatively, microwave butter for 8-10 seconds and dunk eggs in warm tap water for 15 minutes. Prep 9 inch cake pan by greasing with nonhydrogenated shortening and dusting with extra cocoa powder. Tap pan on all sides to distribute cocoa powder in an even layer. Whisk together eggs in a bowl until a bit foamy, and add vanilla extract to eggs. In another bowl, sift coconut flour and stir in sea salt and cocoa powder. Mix together yogurt and red food coloring in a third bowl. In the largest bowl, cream butter for about 30 seconds to make it fluffy. Add erythritol in a steady stream and cream together for 2-3 minutes, or until light, fluffy, and close to the color of cream cheese. Scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally. Slowly stream in beaten eggs, beating continuously. Don't worry if the batter curdles. Once eggs are added, add dry and wet ingredients alternately until everything has been added but the baking powder. Mix in baking powder and scrape batter into prepared pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes in the center of the middle oven rack, or until batter is completely set and springs back. Cover top with foil and bake for longer if center is not set. Remove cake from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.

Invert pan onto a cookie sheet and let cake cool completely. Slice into two layers with a serrated knife, if desired. Transfer bottom cake layer to a serving dish lined with strips of wax paper hanging off the edges. Frost cake, laying over a thin crumb coat first. Then pile on the frosting spread outward from the center of the layer. Add top layer to cake and cover completely with frosting. Store and serve at room temperature. Refrigerate after 24 hours. Cake is best tasting after warming up if it has been kept in the refrigerator.

Cream Cheese Frosting

2-8 oz packages cream cheese or Neufatchel 1/3 less fat cheese
1/2 cup to 3/4 cup erythritol, powdered
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon pure stevia extract
1 stick organic unsalted butter

Bring cream cheese to room temperature. Beat until smooth and creamy, then add powdered erythritol and beat for about 2 minutes, or until erythritol is dissolved and the mixture does not feel gritty to the touch. Beat in butter just until smooth and incorporated.

~60g net carbs for the whole, frosted cake
~6g net carbs per 1/10th
~7.5g net carbs per 1/8th

Cut apple in half and core. Slice into 1/8th inch slices and arrange on a microwave plate. Sprinkle with cinnamon to your taste. (I like a lot of cinnamon). Sprinkle with no-calorie sweetner to you taste. (I use 2 packets of Splenda). Cover with plastic wrap and microwave approximately 2 and a half minutes. BE CAREFUL!!! THE PLATE WILL BE VERY HOT!

I love this, because it tastes like you are cheating, but you're not!

I did not have a bunch of your ingredients on hand, so I had to improvise, (i usually dont do well with that) but this recipie is so easy to do. Below is what I did:


1/2 stick butter melted in the 9 x 12 pan


in blender:
4 eggs
1/3 c almond flour
1/3 protein whey powder
1/3 c flax meal
1/3 c davinci vanilla syrup
dash of pure vanilla
1 c whipping cream
pinch of baking soda
pinch of baking powder
cinnamin to taste

Pour over butter.

Bake at 400 for 25 min


These even smell great. My DD came running down thinking I made cinnamin rolls. The whole pan was eaten by the family. We put butter and atkins syrup. No one minded my low-carb life today

P3 recipe for breakfast....or snacking!

Coconut Breakfast Bars


May 14th, 2008 · No Comments · Breakfast, Coconut, Low Carb, breakfast bars
Serves: 8 generous portions

Carbs Per Serving: Don’t know

Prep Time: 20 mins.

Effort: Easy


Ingredients:

4 large eggs

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup water

3 tsp. vanilla

3 scoops vanilla whey protein powder

1 1/2 cup almond flour(grind almonds in blender)

1 cup Splenda

1 cup unsweetened coconut


How to Prepare:

Place all ingredients into a large bowl. Stir until well combined.

Pour into a greased(I use Pam)9×13 casserole.

I sprinkle splenda sweentened coconut on top,also.

Bake for approx. 1 hour at 350 degrees until golden brown.

This keeps well in the fridge. Each morning I place a serving in the microwave and heat approx. 1 min. It is a good alternative to eggs. I enjoy it with my coffee as coffeecake. I also keep a squeeze bottle of splenda sweetened coconut milk in my fridge and moisten it before I microwave. It is delicious!!!!

P3--almond four muffins

Ingredients:
2 cups almond flour (almond meal)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
4 eggs
1/3 cup water
Sweetener to taste -- about 1/3 cup usually works well -- liquid preferred
Preparation:
1) Preheat oven to 350 F.

2) Butter a muffin tin. You can really do it with any size, but I'm basing the recipe on a 12-muffin tin.

3) Mix dry ingredients together well.

4) Add wet ingredients and mix thoroughly (You don't want strings of egg white in there and you don't have to worry about "tunnels" when you are using almond meal).

5) Put in muffin tins (about 1/2 to 2/3 full) and bake for about 15 minutes.

Variations: Add 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries for blueberry muffins. For apricot muffins, take a teaspoon of sugar-free apricot jam on each muffin and push it in slightly (it will sink more during baking).

Nutritional Information: Each of 12 muffins has 1.5 grams effective carbohydrate plus 2 grams fiber, 6 grams protein, and 185 calories.

P3 recipe--Pumpkin bake

8 oz cream cheese
4 eggs
1/2 cup Splenda
1 1/4 cup pumpkin
1/2 TBL pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp cinnamon

Combine all ingredients. Pour batter in a glass baking dish that has been sprayed with pam. Bake in a 350 degree oven until center is done--it will look puffed, but will shrink down as it cools.

*I always use half the Splenda and a whole big can of pumpkin. I usually bake it like cupcakes and it makes a lot. I eat 2 for brekkie every day and it lasts me a week and a half.
**They are really great if you heat them in the micro and add a bit of SF syrup and some cream.

P3--cream cheese pancakes

One of my favorite uses is the cream cheese pancakes.

Easy to make, and totally induction friendly ... AND THEY ARE GOOD !

4 oz cream cheese, softened
4 eggs
4 tsp Splenda
dash of cinnamon

Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Batter will be thin. Cook on heated griddle that is sprayed with non-stick spray. Serve with SF syrup (my fav is Smuckers SF).
