Sourdough baking is an incredible baking adventure and it can begin in your kitchen today. It is an art and it is so rewarding to pull a crusty artisan or a soft sandwich loaf out of the oven. In the post we will begin in the very beginning of sourdough, starting with the first tablespoon of flour and water to make a starter. We will take you through the day by day steps to have a successful baking experience.
Coffee and chocolate pair together for a wonderful burst of bitter and sweet in this recipe. These candies have a milk chocolate taste from the whey protein powder and vanilla. Using coconut oil give you health benefits by giving your metabolism a boost and it is also anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal.
Everyone loves to celebrate special occasions with beautiful decorated cakes. But so often those cakes are ladened with so much sugar and carbs. This cake used white navy beans as the base for the batter and is filled with Strawberry Cream Filling and frosted with Cream Cheese Frosting. It takes those special occasions to a new level. Don’t forget the Cake Batter Flavoring as it adds that a flavor that low-carb, sugar-free baked items are often lacking.
No-knead Sourdough Bread is so easy to make. You mix it together with a large spatula or spoon and the gluten is than developed by the stretch and fold method. This makes a wonderful loaf of bread. I love the taste of rye and the addition of caraway seeds give it that Old World Rye taste.
This tangy sweet barbecue sauce takes wings, pork, and ribs to a new level. Best of all, it isn’t filled with all kinds of sugar and corn syrup. I love this sauce and always keep it on hand for any kind of meat. I have even canned large amounts in the summertime using sauce from fresh tomatoes.
Blend together tomato sauce, onions, and garlic until smooth. Pour into a sauce pan. Add vinegar, soy sauce, seasonings, molasses, and sweetener. Simmer on medium-low heat for 1 hour. Whisk in tomato paste. Cool. This will keep for an extended time in the refrigerator.
*To get the smooth texture of bought sauce, blend the cooled sauce in your blender until smooth.
*If you would like it a bit thicker add a small amount of xanthan gum when you blend the sauce.

Quick and easy meals — we all love them, don’t we? Mondays are hectic days for me as a mother of eight. My laundry room usually has this enormous mound of dirty wash waiting for my attention. Our family has come to expect simple meals and this is one of my favorites. Everything can be done in the Insta-Pot and all I need to do is add cornbread or a salad to finish out the meal. Any leftovers are saved for lunches the next day.

Sourdough bread is so fascinating to me. I love to experiment with different ways, methods, and with my large family, they eat it right up. This method is very easy and the gluten is developed by the stretch and folds. It is a simple recipe that only uses 5 ingredients and is just stirred together using a large spatula or spoon. I found my clay baker at a thrift store for just a few dollars and I love it.
No-Knead Whole Wheat Sourdough Bread THM-E
In a large mixing bowl, stir all ingredients together until combined. You will have a rough, sticky dough. Cover and allow it to rise for 1 hour. Remove lid and gently pick up one side of the dough, fold it in half. Repeat with all four sides of dough. Cover and allow to rise for another hour. Repeat 2 more times for a total of 4 folding times. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 12 hours. Remove dough from the refrigerator. Fold dough in 3rds, pinching the dough together to seal the edges. Turn dough and fold in 3rds, pinching to seal edges. Line the bottom of the clay baker with parchment paper or foil. Place loaf seam side down in a clay baker. Cover. Allow loaf to warm to room temperature for 2 hours. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Remove the lid from the baker and fill with water. Allow the water to soak the lid for 10 minutes. Slash the loaf with a sharp knife. Empty the water from the lid and place it on the clay baker. Place the covered baker into the hot oven. Set the timer for 35 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees. Remove the lid and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes. Remove clay baker from oven.

2 slices of bread are considered an E category and 1 slice an S-helper under THM guidelines.
