1 ½ lb strawberries ½ cup sugar 1 Tbsp butter 1/3 cup strawberry jam 1 cup 2% milk ½ cup cream

Cut tops off strawberries. Combine strawberries, sugar, and butter in a pot. Stir over medium heat until butter is melted and sugar is dissolved.

In a large bowl, combine milk and cream.

In a blender, puree the strawberries with their syrup, and the jam, until totally smooth. Stir into the milk mixture.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in fridge or freezer until completely cold.

Churn in ice cream machine for 20-25 minutes. It can be served soft at this point, or transferred to an air-tight container to freeze harder.

This recipe makes 2 batches for my machine.

2 cups spinach, cooked or frozen ¼ cup dried fruit ½ cup warm milk 3 cups flour 2 tsp instant yeast 1 tsp salt 1-2 tsp herbs or spices as desired 2 Tbsp oil 1 egg

If your spinach is frozen, warm it up before mixing. Combine the spinach, dried fruit, and milk in a blender and puree until smooth. You need 1 ½ cups of puree (add more milk if necessary).

In a large bowl, stir together the flour, yeast, salt, and seasoning. In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg with the oil.

Stir the spinach mixture and egg mixture into the flour mixture. Knead it thoroughly. It will seem dry but the spinach will continue releasing moisture as it is kneaded, so don't add more liquid until you're sure it needs it.

Put the dough in a bowl coated in oil, cover it, and let rise until doubled (about 45-60 minutes).

Lightly knead the dough, then form it into rolls and place on a baking sheet. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes or until doubled. While rising, preheat oven to 375° F.

Bake for 17-20 minutes.

2 cups flour, or a gluten-free flour mix ½ cup sugar ½ tsp salt 2 ½ tsp baking powder ½ cup butter, frozen ¼ cup sour cream ¼ cup milk 1 egg 1 tsp vanilla extract 2/3 cup rolled oats 1/3 cup sliced almonds extra milk

Whisk flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder together in a large bowl. Grate the frozen butter and cut it into the flour mix until there is no dry powder.

Whisk milk, sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Pour over the flour mixture, add the oats and almonds, then stir to combine.

Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Dump the dough onto the sheet and press it together into a ball, then press it into a thick, flat disk. Use a dough cutter to cut it into 8 wedges. Pull them apart from each other. Brush the tops with the extra milk. Put the pan into the fridge or freezer while the oven is heating.

Preheat oven to 400° F. Bake for 18-25 minutes.

1 ½ cups flour ¼ cup sugar ¼ cup rolled oats ¼ cup butter 1/3 cup milk 1 egg Sliced almonds

Preheat oven to 400° F.

In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, and oats. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In a small bowl, beat together milk and egg yolk, then stir into flour mixture.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to ½” thick. Cut out biscuits with a 1 ½” round cutter. Reroll the dough and cut more biscuits. At this size, the recipe should make about 18 biscuits.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place biscuits on it.

In a small bowl, beat the egg white. Brush the tops of the biscuits with egg white, and top with sliced almonds.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.

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.

Filling: 1 lb. chicken meat 1 ½ tsp minced garlic 1 cup minced celery ¾ cup chopped onion 2 cups potato, cut into ½” cubes ½ cup grated parmesan (or other cheese) ½ tsp salt 1 tsp ground black pepper 2 tsp tomato powder ½ tsp dried thyme ½ tsp dried oregano ¼ tsp fennel seed ¼ cup cornstarch ½ cup water, soup stock, or cream

Crust: 2 ¾ cup flour 2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp salt 6 Tbsp oil 1 ½ cup milk or water

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Place the chicken in a greased pan over medium-high heat and let the outside brown, flipping occasionally, while you prepare the rest of the filling. The chicken does not have to be cooked through at this time.

Chop the vegetables, mix the filling ingredients in a large bowl. When the chicken is seared on the outside, cut it into small pieces and stir into the filling.

In a separate bowl, stir together all the crust ingredients.

Grease a large pie pan, and press 1/3 of the crust dough into the bottom, with wet hands to smooth it out to fill the space. Pour the filling into the pie pan, evening out the top. Place the rest of the dough on top, using wet hands to smooth it out and completely cover the filling.

Bake for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches at least 165° F, checking in several spots.

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.

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.

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.
