4 ¾ cups flour 4 Tbsp olive oil 2 tsp salt 1 ½ tsp yeast 2 ¼ cups warm water olive oil coarse salt dried rosemary

Coat a 9”×13” cake pan with cooking spray.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, olive oil, and salt.

In a small bowl, combine yeast, with ½ cup warm water. When it is foamy, stir the yeast mixture and the rest of the water into the flour mixture.

Stir together and then knead for a few minutes to make a cohesive dough.

Place the dough into the can pan. Gently flatten it. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour.

After ½ hour of rising, set the oven to 375° F.

After 1 hour of rising, poke holes all over the dough with your fingers. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with coarse salt and rosemary.

Bake for 28-30 minutes until golden brown.

2 fish fillets, boneless, 4-6 oz each Salt and pepper 2 Tbsp flour 2 Tbsp oil

The fish needs to be not frozen. Skin can be removed if desired. Use whatever kind of fish you like. Pat fish dry using paper towels. Sprinkle with salt & pepper, then flour. Spread flour over the entire surface. Flip the fish pieces over and repeat. Shake excess flour off.

Heat oil in a non stick skillet over high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add fish. For thin fillets, cook for 1 ½ minutes until golden and crispy on the edges, then turn and cook the other side for 1 ½ minutes. Cook longer if you have thicker fillets.

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.

This basic recipe can be used as the template for many variations of the classic dessert.

For a medium sized cobbler, about 9”×6”.

Filling: 3 cups fruit, fresh or frozen about ¼ cup sugar (more or less depending on the fruit used)

Topping: 1 cup flour 1 ½ cups rolled oats ¼ cup sugar 1/3 cup butter

Preheat oven to 375° F.

Prepare the fruit as necessary, such as washing, peeling, chopping it into roughly bite-sized pieces, removing seeds. Stir the fruit and sugar together, then spread into the bottom of a baking pan.

Stir the oats, flour, and sugar together. Use your fingers to rub in the butter until there is no dry powder. Sprinkle the topping over the fruit and bake for 30 minutes.

Variations

Use rolled barley, rye, or wheat instead of rolled oats. Use white sugar, brown sugar, honey, or maple syrup. Combine any type of fruit. Add 1-2 tsp of spices to the filling or the topping. Add extras to the filling like chopped nuts, dried fruit, shredded coconut, or chocolate chips. Use coconut oil instead of butter. Use different types of flour in the topping such as almond flour, corn meal or masa harina.

3 Tbsp butter or coconut oil 1 cup hot water ¼ cup honey ½ Tbsp salt .7 oz fresh yeast or 2 ½ tsp dry yeast ½ cup room temp water or milk 1 egg 1 cup spelt flour 4-5 cups whole wheat flour

Stir together the hot water, butter/oil, honey, and salt. Mix in 1 cup of flour. Mix in the yeast and lukewarm water/milk. Mix in the egg. Mix in the rest of the flour one cup at a time. The dough will be very soft. Knead in enough flour to keep it together and and not sticky, but don't expect it to form a sturdy, resistant dough.

Coat with oil, cover, and let rise for 30 minutes or until doubled.

Gently roll it into a log shape. Place in a greased bread pan, coat with oil, cover, then rise again for 30 minutes.

When the dough is about 1” above the rim of the pan, bake at 350° F for 40-50 minutes, until browned on top and about 180° F inside. Let cool until it easily comes out of the bread pan.

1 ½ cups garbanzo flour 1 ½ cups water 2 Tbsp olive oil, plus some ¾ tsp salt black pepper

Stir together garbanzo flour, water, 2 Tbsp olive oil, and salt. Let the batter rest for 30 or more minutes.

Put a cast iron skillet in the oven, close to the top, and preheat to 450° F. When it hits temperature, set the oven to high broil. Remove skillet from oven, pour in a small amount of olive oil to coat the bottom, and pour in the batter. Broil the socca for 5-8 minutes, until the top is browned and crispy.

Remove from oven, drizzle olive oil on top, salt, and plenty of freshly ground black pepper.
