Hazelnut Grain-Free Cookies

Hazelnut Grain-Free CookiesThese hazelnut grain-free cookies are not too sweet, so they make a nice snack.

They’re also GAPS, SCD and Paleo-legal grain-free cookies.

If you’d like something sweeter, add in 1/3 cup of raw, local honey to the batter.

Serves:  24

Prep time:  10 minutes

Cook time:  15 minutes

Allergy:  Egg, tree nuts

Ingredients

  • 2 cups hazelnuts, ground
  • 2-1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 pasture-raised eggs
  • 3/8 cups ghee or coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup cold, filtered water
  • 2 tablespoons raw, local honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (I prefer Ceylon cinnamon)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a cookie sheet.

Combine hazelnut and almond flours with baking soda, 4 tablespoons of ghee, and water. Mix well.

To make the glaze, melt 2 tablespoons of ghee with honey and cinnamon.

Drop rounded spoonfuls of mixture into a ball, then flatten. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Remove cookies from oven, brush with glaze, return to oven and bake for 2-3 more minutes, or until the glaze has melted into the cookies.

Easy Chicken Broth

Easy Chicken BrothThis easy chicken broth recipe is so full of necessary minerals that are often missing, especially if you’re eating processed foods.

An old South American proverb says “Good broth will resurrect the dead”.

Use this chicken broth as a base for all of your soups and as an added touch to sauces.

Serves:  16

Prep time:  10 minutes

Cook time:  25 hours

Ingredients

  • Bones of 1 chicken or 10-12 bones (tubular bones should be chopped in half to allow marrow to come out)
  • 1 large onion (roughly chopped)
  • 1 large carrot (roughly chopped)
  • 1 large celery stalk (roughly chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon ghee or coconut oil or other saturated fat
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 strip kombu (kelp)

Directions

Place all ingredients in a roasting pan; toss to coat. Cook in oven at 350F degrees for 20 minutes. Remove from oven; turn ingredients over to cook other side. Cook for another 20 minutes. Remove from oven and place all ingredients in a crock pot. Fill to top with filtered water. Let cook for at least 24 hours.

If you want to make a bone broth even faster, don’t cook the bones in the oven. Don’t use the fat, and put all ingredients directly into the crockpot.

Easy Beef Bone Broth

Easy Beef Bone BrothI use homemade beef bone broth to cook beans, grains and soups or as a stand-alone.

You can reuse beef bones a few times to make more broth; it’ll just take a little longer each time.

For the subsequent broths, add in a tablespoon or two of Great Lakes gelatin, which can be so healing to the lining of the gut.

Serves:  16

Prep time:  5 minutes

Cook time: 26 hours

Ingredients

  • 2lb grass-fed beef marrow and/or joint bones
  • 1 teaspoon ghee or animal fat, melted
  • 1 teaspoon white or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 strip kombu (kelp)

Directions

Rub ghee/fat onto beef bones. Bake at 250F for one hour; turn, and bake for another hour.

Add vinegar, kombu and bones to a large crock pot; fill with filtered water. Cook for at least 24 hours on low.
