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.

Crust: 1 ¾ cup flour 1 tsp ground nutmeg ½ tsp ground cardamom ½ tsp ground ginger ½ tsp ground black pepper ½ cup butter, cut into pieces ¼ cup brown sugar ¼ cup cold water 1 egg

Filling: 4 ½ cups raw cranberries (18 oz) 1 cup plain Greek yogurt 1 cup sugar ¼ cup corn starch 1/8 tsp salt

Preheat the oven to 350° F.

Whisk together the flour and spices. Cut in the butter. In a separate bowl, dissolve the brown sugar in the water, then beat in the egg. Stir the water mixture into the flour mixture in 2 parts, forming a smooth paste. Form into a thick disk, wrap in plastic, and chill while you make the filling.

Use a food processor to coarsely mince the cranberries. Stir together all the filling ingredients.

Roll the crust dough into a thin crust and place into a 9” deep-dish pie pan. Fill with the cranberry filling. Use leftover dough to make a decorative top crust. Cover with foil and bake for 60 minutes, then remove foil and bake for 10 minutes.

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.

4-6 pears ¾ cup water 2 Tbsp maple syrup ½ tsp ground cardamom

Before chopping the pears, remove wax from the skin by dipping the pears in hot water for about 30 seconds and scrubbing them with a clean, rough cloth. The color of the skin may change, but it doesn't damage the texture or flavor.

Chop the pears into small pieces, removing the core, until you have 6 cups.

Bring to a boil over high heat the pear, water, and maple syrup. Reduce heat to medium and boil, covered, until pears are completely soft.

Add the cardamom. If most of the water has boiled off, add another ½ cup. Puree the mixture in a blender until completely smooth. Transfer to another container and chill out completely.

Once it is cold, process it in an ice cream machine according to the machine's instructions.

¾ cup cold buttermilk 2 Tbsp brown sugar or honey 1 egg 2 cups flour 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp salt ¼ cup butter ½ cup blueberries (fresh, frozen, or dried) sugar cardamom

Preheat oven to 375° F.

Combine flour, baking powder, and salt, in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Cut in chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in the blueberries (if using frozen, bring them to room temperature and pat them dry). Add milk, brown sugar/honey, and egg, stirring just until moist.

Place dough onto a floured surface and knead lightly until the dough is all together. Place on a baking sheet that is either greased, or lined with parchment. Form dough into an approximately ¾” thick, 9” circle. Cut dough into 12 wedges all the way through.

Sprinkle cardamom and sugar on top. Bake until golden, 18-20 minutes. Serve warm.

Filling: 1 cup (8 oz) cream cheese 2 Tbsp honey 1 large egg

Topping: 2-4 apples, cored and cut into ¼” slices 1/8 tsp cardamom 1/8 tsp allspice 2 Tbsp honey

Preheat oven to 450° F. Grease 9” pie pan.

Crust: Stir together flour and sugar. Cut in butter and yogurt until the dough forms. Press the dough onto the bottom and one inch up the sides of the pan.

Filling: Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the honey and mix well. Blend in the egg. Pour the filling into the crust.

Topping: Toss the ingredients together, to coat the apple slices. Place apple slices in a decorative fashion on the top of the tart. You want it to be about double layered with apple slices.
