My Little Pillow Puff Pickelets - Wheat/Gluten/Dairy/Grain Free



I've found the MOST amazing recipe, like ever!

It's amazing for a few reasons - not limited to its deliciousness taste, the fact that there is no added sugar, its soft pillowy cloud-like texture, gluten free, dairy free, grain free (just about everything free) to name a few exceptional reasons, but mostly because... [pause here for emphasis]... it has only two ingredients. You heard me, Sunshine... Only. Two. Ingredients. (Gasp?!)

I'll give you a moment to compose yourself while you let that little sentence sink in!

I know, I couldn't believe it either. My super pal, Claire, sent it to a bunch of us to try it because she knows how hungry we all are, all the time. So I tried it out, skeptically I might add, and did it blow my socks off? Yessiree!

Sadly, she couldn't remember where she found the recipe. I wanted to sing praise and thank that clever soul for creating such a simple and heavenly recipe for us, and then sharing it, too. (If that clever soul happens to come across my Now-World-Famous-Blog *chuckle, chuckle, snort snort*, I give you full creds and big-ups for this, my friend. I take none of the credit. I only feel it is my duty to also pay it forward and spread the love).

So, for you, Leigh with your love of all things sweet and little, and Nicole because you have absolutely no time/patience for measuring cups or folding egg whites with three children. And for Sarah and Claire who are the purists that only feed their Buttercup-Little-Ones the simplest of wholefoods... and for Mumsy who, at the moment, cant swing a cat in her tiny kitchen... and, of course, all my other Lovelies out there who have allergies, or don't have time, or even ingredients for that matter... with love, from me to you. 

No more dilly-dallying about or keeping you in suspense, here it is... 

My Two Ingredient Pillow Puff Pickelets 
(Thank you, again, Claire)
  • 2  Bananas, medium size
  • 3  Eggs
  • 2  shakes of Ground Cinnamon - optional (yes this is technically a third ingredient, but I sneaked it in anyway... Or you could add a teaspoon of vanilla extract, if you were feeling a little rebellious)

Method
  • Put it all in a bowl and mix (I use my stick/immersion blender, it blitzes it into a velvety smooth batter in three seconds)
  • As with normal crumpets, pour four tablespoons of batter into a very well greased and heated pan. 
  • Cook on medium heat until bubbles form and flip to cook the other side.
  • Transfer to a warm plate and repeat until batter is finished. (I used a non-stick spray after each batch)
  • Devour - makes about 20.
I served it for breakfast with sliced pear (I poached my woody and tart pear in a little sugar water to soften) and some lactose free yoghurt, and a drizzle of honey... 

I'm embarrassed to say that we ate them all before taking any more pictures... So sorry, it was such a quick recipe (to make and eat) that I only have one picture...


Much love, and happy nibbling

Yes, I put butter (and EGG) in my coffee... Milk is SO last season!

  Hot Buttery Egg Coffee Gasp! Horror! Now just let it sink in…and stop pulling that face…I know it sounds weird and even ‘eeeuuww’ but trust me, if you like custard, ice-cream, eggnog etc then you can like my Hot Buttery Egg Coffee - it’s the same principal. The egg is 'cooked' in the boiling water. And the fat from the egg and butter (you could add coconut oil as well, or instead of) satiates you for hours. I’ve even gone as far as putting in two eggs when I know I’m only getting to eat again by late afternoon. You can also add cream or milk if you can tolerate it but, really, it doesn’t need it. The egg and butter emulsify so beautifully you have a creamy latte in a matter of seconds. In fact, I wont drink coffee now any other way! It first caught my eye on this super blog here  and then I really sat up and took notice after reading about it here  aswell. It’s actually not that unheard of in the sugar free world (also known as Low Carb) that I'...

The Portable Frittata!

It’s like an omlette… It’s like a quiche… It looks like a muffin…but it’s a frittata?   Gluten+Grain+Sugar Free + Low Carb.    I keep getting asked about sugar-free breakfasts for those who work at an office, or who don’t have the time to prepare and eat a cooked breakfast, before rushing to sit in traffic (crazy humans we are?).  So here I am, giving you options (don’t say I don’t do things for you)... you can pimp your morning cuppa java into a HOT BUTTERY EGG COFFEE , or you could whip up a batch of BLUEBERRY BREAKFAST BOMBES ...  and now I bring you the Portable Frittata !  Sounds interesting, doesn’t it? This is not really an original recipe, more of a redo, taking yesterday's most delicious  CARAMELISED OMLETTE and making it lunchbox (and kiddie) friendly.  I urge you to feel free and experiment with ingredients and ratios. This is not baking, this is more like throwing caution (and ingredients) to the w...

School Holidays' Easy Beany Brownie Bites

Its school holidays. And it’s raining… again! These two simple statements bring shivers of dread to mothers around the world… So what does any domesticated-wannabe-mummy-of-two do with her five year old? Well, I’ll tell you, she does stuff that she wants to do. That’s right. A very wise lady (Maureen, Petal, that’s you) gave me this advice just this weekend. She said, “…do stuff with your kids that you love to do… they will feel your passion and see your smile, its authentic...”. It makes sense, right? (But, hey, you’ve sometimes also got to do things that they like to do, like crawling into their man-made fort for a tea party with a grasshopper (one-legged) and the ever growing ant colony on the grass, which is now starting to make you itch. Or playing Teacher-Teacher, and you’re the one being sent to the naughty chair all the time.) Well, Maureen, I took this lovely piece of advice and gave it a bash. I knew straight-off that my best way of spending the day in...
