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.
These Crab Stuffed Mushroom are great for parties, get-together, or just when you want something special. I cut these in quarters or if you prefer individual servings you can use button mushroom. Our family can never get enough of mushrooms and made this way they are incredible.
Bags of plump cranberries on store shelves tell us that Christmas is just around the corner. Cranberries freeze very well so I buy a number of bags to freeze to use later in the year. I love their tartness in cheesecakes, pies, drinks, and also dried for snacking. They also star in this glaze. Spiral-cut Ham baked with cranberry sauce will be served for our Christmas dinner this year.
Two English Walnut trees grace the front yard of the old home place where my parents live and my grandparents before them. These trees were planted by my grandparents who prized the nuts for baking. Many memories were made picking up the walnuts with my grandmother and spreading them in the attic to dry. Over the winter months my grandfather would sit at the kitchen table shelling them.Â
Here is a moist cupcake that is so handy to take along to picnics and potlucks in the summertime. And, yes, you can eat pumpkin items all year long, not just in the fall.
Raspberries are a delightful treat in mid-summer. I have both red and black raspberry patches in our orchard. Black Raspberries are my all time favorite and but the Red Raspberries are ever-bearing and give all summer. They do require some work with pruning but give a bountiful crop every year. My children love to walk through the patch and eat their fill when they are sent to pick.
