Taking The Stress Out Of Gluten-Free Grain-Free & Dairy-Free Living
Grain Free Spice Cakes
Grain & Dairy Free Spice Cakes
*Preheat oven to 350 degrees
1 Cup of Coconut Flour
3/4 Cup of Sweet Potato Flour
1 Cup of Coconut Sugar
2 teaspoons of Double Acting Baking Powder
1/8 teaspoon of Sea Salt
1 Tablespoon of Pumpkin Pie Spice
1/2 Cup of Dairy Free Soy Free Butter
4 Eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons of Pure Almond Extract
1 Cup + 1/2 Cup (measured separately) Full Fat Coconut Milk
Measure the dry ingredients into a stand mixer and whisk to combine. Add the butter, eggs, almond extract, and 1 Cup of the coconut milk. Beat until fully incorporated, scraping down sides once or twice. Allow the batter to rest while you place cupcake liners into a tin (18). Add the remaining 1/2 cup coconut milk and beat until fully incorporated. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full and bake for 20 minutes.
**I made a simple powdered sugar/butter frosting…that ended up being a dance of add more of this and add more of that and then I had to toss it and make another batch. So I will let you figure the measurements for your frosting, or you can go here and use these measurements. I used powdered sugar, dairy free butter, pumpkin pie spice, and a little coconut milk in mine. I also sprinkled them with Maple Sugar Nuggets.

Those look yummy. You are such a good story teller. I hope you are saving all of those, and going to put them in a book and Publish them. Have a good day. Jean

My main form of entertainment is watching the neighbours. Nothing quite as scandalous as yours, but delightful nonetheless!

We nominated you for the Blogger Recognition Award. You can see the rules on our blog corkscot@wordpress.com. Have you tried Pretzel Perfection gluten free pretzel clusters? One type has caramel, sea salt, and dark chocolate chips. Another has butter toffee peanuts, peanut butter chips, milk chocolate chis and old fashioned toffee. They are very good.

Oh dear! What a shock. I can’t believe he doubled his original quote. Sounds like you did well to not give him the work and go with someone a little more honest xx
