Wheat and Honey

Breakfast

3 eggs 1 ¼ cups milk or water ¾ cup flour 1 Tbsp sugar ½ tsp salt 1 tsp ground cardamom or nutmeg butter

Beat eggs in a bowl until they are creamy and light yellow colored. Gently beat in milk/water. Add the flour, sugar, salt, and spice, beating until smooth.

Heat a skillet over high heat, then turn to medium. Melt a thin layer of butter in the skillet and pour in batter, about ½ cup at a time to make thin pancakes. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side. Add more butter in between batches.

Top the warm pancakes with syrup, jam, cream, nut butters, or whatever kind of topping you like.

¾ cup buttermilk ¼ cup coconut oil or butter 1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen 1 tsp vanilla extract 3 eggs ¼ cup brown sugar ¼ cup white sugar ½ tsp salt 2 cups flour 2 Tbsp corn starch ½ Tbsp baking soda

Preheat oven to 400° F, and spray a muffin tin with non-stick spray, or use paper liners.

In a blender, combine the buttermilk, butter/oil, blueberries, vanilla extract, eggs, and brown sugar. Blend until mostly smooth.

In a medium mixing bowl, mix together the white sugar, flour, baking soda, and corn starch. Add the liquid mixture, beating on low-medium speed, until it is thoroughly mixed.

Fill the muffin tin. Bake for 12-15 minutes.

4 cups rolled oats ¼ cup brown sugar ½ cup raw peanuts, coarsely chopped ¼ cup raw sunflower seeds ¼ cup raw sesame seeds ¼ cup raw pumpkin seeds ¼ cup ground flax seeds ¼ cup chia seeds 6 Tbsp raisins 6 Tbsp dried cranberries ½ cup dried coconut, flaked or shredded 1 tsp salt 2 Tbsp honey 6 Tbsp coconut oil 2 egg whites

Preheat oven to 275° F and line a baking sheet with baking parchment.

In a medium bowl, stir together the dry ingredients. In a small bowl, beat together the honey, coconut oil, and egg white. Thoroughly stir this into the dry ingredients. Spread granola onto the baking sheet and cook for 45 minutes. (If making a half batch, cook for 30 minutes.)

Transfer the granola on the parchment, onto a cooling rack. Let cool before putting in a container.

Basic proportions: 4 cups grains 6 Tbsp sweetener 2 ¼ cup nuts and seeds 1 ¼ cup dried fruit

4 eggs ¼ cup milk ½ tsp ground cinnamon 1 tsp ground nutmeg ¼ tsp vanilla extract 6 slices of bread Butter

Preheat skillet and melt a thin layer of butter in it. Beat the eggs, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is light and homogenous. You can use an egg beater if you want to truly blend in the spices, but a manual whisk is sufficient.

Set the stove heat to medium. Dip pieces of bread into egg mixture, coating both sides. Cook on each side until browned. Add more butter to skillet between batches.

Serve warm with syrup, jam, honey, or any desired topping.

Single serving.

1 cup water ½ tsp salt 1/3 cup cornmeal or grits 1 tsp butter

Bring water to a boil. Add the salt. Slowly whisk the cornmeal into the water. Turn heat to low and stir until it is thick. This is almost instantaneous for a single serving, but longer for larger amounts. Stir in the butter.

Serve with savory or sweet toppings, as a breakfast, a side dish, or a base for a main dish.

For a single serving:

1 cup cooked rice ½ cup coconut milk 1 tsp honey 1/8 tsp salt

Stir together all ingredients. If you are starting with cold rice, gently heat the porridge on the stove, or microwave for 1 minute.

2 cups flour ¼ cup sugar ¼ cup brown sugar ½ tsp salt ½ Tbsp baking soda 1 cup milk, water, or nut milk ½ cup butter or coconut oil 1 egg 1 Tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp vanilla or orange extract (optional)

Preheat oven to 450° F. Grease a muffin tin, or put in paper baking cups.

Stir together the flour, sugars, salt, and baking soda.

In a small bowl, melt the butter/coconut oil. Add the milk/water/nut milk, egg, lemon juice, and vanilla/orange extract. Whisk until completely combined.

Pour the liquid into the flour mixture, stirring until just combined. Divide evenly into the muffin cups, about ¼ cup each.

Bake for 5 minutes, then reduce the heat to 400° F and bake for 10-12 minutes, until a tester comes out clean.

Makes 10-12 regular sized muffins. Cooking times will be shorter for small muffins and longer for large muffins.

Variations

Add to the dry ingredients 1 to 1 ½ cups of a filling, such as dried fruit, chocolate chips, chopped nuts, berries, chopped fresh or frozen fruit, rolled oats or barley. Use honey instead of sugar. Add 2 Tbsp cocoa powder. Add 2-3 tsp of spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cardamom, etc. Add 2 Tbsp each of poppy seeds and lemon zest.

This is meant to be a basic recipe that can be customized as you wish for different flavors.

Crust: 1 cup flour 1 tsp dried ground tomato ½ tsp dill weed 6 Tbsp butter ½ tsp salt ¼ cup water

Filling: 5 eggs 1 ¼ cup milk 1 ½ cups diced onion 1 Tbsp oil ¾ cup cheese, shredded or cubed small 1 tsp black pepper

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Put the onion and oil in a small pan over medium-low heat. Cover and let cook until they are translucent.

Stir together the flour and spices for the crust. Cut in the butter until there are no more large chunks. Dissolve the salt in the water and stir into the flour mixture until it forms a dough. Press the dough onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9” square or circular baking pan. (Or you can roll the crust out on a floured surface.) Chill until needed.

Whisk together the eggs, milk, and pepper until it is completely mixed, then stir in the cheese.

Spread the onions in the bottom of the crust. Pour in the egg mixture.

Bake for 35-40 minutes until top and crust are lightly browned.

Crust: 6 Tbsp butter 1 ½ cups flour ¼ cup milk ½ tsp dried sage, crushed

Filling: 3 cups mushrooms, chopped 4 garlic cloves, chopped ½ tsp salt ½ tsp black pepper ½ tsp dried fennel leaves 4 eggs 1 ½ cups milk 2 Tbsp flour 1 cup cheese, shredded or cut into chunks butter

Preheat the oven to 375° F.

Mix the flour and sage. Cut the butter into the flour until it is crumbly. Stir in enough milk to make a dough that holds together but is not too wet. You can press the dough into a pie tin, or refrigerate it, then roll it out to make the crust.

Melt some butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and add the onions and garlic. Saute for a few minutes until the garlic has started to brown. Pour this mixture into the pie crust.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, seasonings, and cheese, until the eggs are thoroughly mixed. Pour into the pie crust.

Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the top is browned and the filling is solid in the center.
