WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

Recipe Notes:

– If using fresh jalapeños instead of pickled, you may want to roast or fry them before adding.

– If you don’t eat bacon, you can top the dip with grated cheddar or parmesan cheese and/or fresh herbs or crushed nuts like pecans or walnuts instead. Leaving it naked is also a great option.

– You can use any kind of flavorful cheese you prefer.

– Fresh Jalapeños can be used instead of the pickled jalapeños.

– Removing the seeds from the Jalapeños makes them considerably less spicy.

1/2 Tsp Pepper

1 Tsp Garlic Powder

2. Roll out, small one inch meatballs. Place the meatballs in the pan (9 rows of 6), and bake for 12-13 minutes. Pour off any grease, then turn your oven to broil. Bake for another 10 – 12 minutes, turning the meatballs a few times.Transfer the cooked meatballs to a slow cooker/ crockpot.

Recipe Notes:

– If cooking the meatballs in the slow cooker for more than 4 hours, you’ll need to add a bit of water.

– The sweet and sour meatballs can be served without cooking them in a slow cooker or crock pot. Just pour the prepared sauce over the cooked meatballs, if preferred.

– If you like breadcrumbs in your meatballs, try using crushed up pork rinds instead. You won’t need to add as much salt though because they’re usually salted.

– If you don’t have tin foil, just use an unlined baking pan.

– The keto meatballs can ba made with just ground beef or pork. They will work fine without mixing but I find the texture and taste to be better if you mix them.

– The recipe makes 9 servings of 6 meatballs each. If feeding a larger crowd you’ll need to double or triple the recipe.

Gluten Free Butter Tarts

December 7, 2017 by officially gluten free 3 Comments

Gluten Free Butter Tarts

For years I made homemade Butter Tarts for Christmas Gifts for my family and friends. Every year they would happily put in their special orders before Christmas. Some liked raisins, some liked theirs with no pecans and others wanted extra pecans. I think there’s something special about making homemade gifts for people, rather than buying them. They appreciate it so much more and love getting exactly what they chose.

How to make Gluten Free Butter Tarts

Pie crust can be a little challenging to make but if you take your time and keep mixing it, a lovely dough ball will form. When I’m rolling the dough out, I press the sides back in as I go. I will do a few rolls with the rolling pin, then press it all tightly back together again. Then a few more rolls, and so on.

A trick That I found very helpful, is to use a piece of parchment paper or a thin plastic mat to roll it out on. It makes it much easier to get the crust really thin and helps a lot if you need to flip the crust into a pie pan . One more important factor in making great Pie Crust is keeping the dough cold. Placing the dough in the fridge for half hour before rolling it out and again for 10 minutes before the filling goes into it, helps keep the crust nice and flaky but not too dry.

Some People like raisins in their Gluten Free Butter Tarts. I didn’t add any to this recipe but if you’re fond of them, you could add them in. Just soak 1 cup of raisins in hot water for 10 – 15 minutes. Drain them, then pat them dry. Add them into the brown sugar butter mixture before adding to the tarts. My husband and I love Pecans on our Gluten Free Butter Tarts but my son isn’t fond of them, so I made a couple of plain ones just for him. He was so glad I did. If you’re not a fan of Pecans you could try using Walnuts instead or just leave them plain.

Gluten Free Butter Tarts

Since going Gluten Free I haven’t been making Butter Tarts. My old Gluten Free Pie Crust was just too crumbly for a tart. A few months ago I made a delicious Gluten Free Butter Pie Crust that actually holds up and I have been dying to make these Gluten Free Butter Tarts with it. It’s been years since I’ve had one and these Gluten Free Butter Tarts didn’t disappoint. The Light and Flaky Butter Crust is a perfect match for the Sweet Buttery, Butter Tart Filling. These Tarts are seriously addictive.

One of the reasons that I use rice flour in most of my recipes is because its so inexpensive. You can find it for $1.00 a bag at Asian Supermarkets or in the import sections at Larger Grocery Stores. It’s also very versatile and doesn’t have a weird after taste like a lot of other gluten free flours do.

If you’re looking for another delicious Gluten Free Recipe for the Holidays, try these delicious Gluten Free Blueberry Cheesecake Tarts. They’re made with an easy to make Gluten Free Shortbread Cookie Cup Tart and are topped with a light and fluffy No Bake Cheesecake Topping. They’re sure to impress even you non gluten free friends and family.

Gluten Free Butter Tarts

“For years I made homemade Butter Tarts for Christmas Gifts for my family and friends. Every year they would happily put in their special orders before Christmas. Some liked raisins, some liked theirs with no pecans and others wanted extra pecans. I think there’s something special about making homemade gifts for people, rather than buying them. They appreciate it so much more and love getting exactly what they chose.”

Ingredients

For the Tarts

2 Cups Rice Flour

1 Cup Potato Starch (Tapioca or Corn Starch)

3/4 Cup Butter

1 Tbsp Sugar

2 Egg Yolks

1/4 Cup Milk

1 Tsp White Vinegar

For the Filling

1/2 Cup Butter

1 1/2 Cups Brown Sugar

2 Eggs

2 Tsp Vanilla

2 Tbsp Heavy Cream

1/2 Cup Pecans

Directions

1. For the Crust – Cut the cold butter into the flour, starch and sugar, mix until well combined. (I use my hands and squish the butter and flour together until a crumbly mixture forms)

2. Add the egg yolk, milk and vinegar. Then mix with your hands pressing it into the bottom of the bowl and kneading it like bread dough. The dough seems a little to dry at first but keep mixing it and a firm dough will form after a few minutes.

3. Place the dough in a disc shape, wrapped in plastic wrap in the fridge for 1/2 hour.

4. On a lightly rice floured piece of parchment paper, roll out the dough. If the dough breaks or cracks just press it back together with your fingers.

5. Use a large round cookie cutter or a large cup or bowl to cut out circles in the dough. Place the dough circles into a muffin tin. Place in the fridge for 10 minutes.

6. Preheat oven to 400 F.

7. For the Filling – In a small pot over low heat, melt the butter. Add the sugar, then stir until well combined.

8. Remove from heat, then add the eggs, cream and vanilla. Mix well, then fill the tarts 2/3 full. Place a few pecans on top of each of the tarts. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes. Let the Gluten Free Butter Tarts cool completely before eating.

This recipe makes 12 Gluten Free Butter Tarts.

Note: Rice Flour can vary from brand to brand. I’ve found that measurements can be different depending on the brand you’re using. The Thai brand which has red writing on the bag is ground finer and can take more than the Indian rice flour that I get at Superstore. Both brands work wonderfully but there is a slight difference in the measurements, as I mentioned. Because of this, I like to add the flour a little a time until the consistency is right.

Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies

November 29, 2017 by officially gluten free 1 Comment

Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies

These Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies are incredibly light and unexpectedly soft. They’re not too strong tasting. The best thing about these yummy Gluten Free Christmas Cookies is that, they’re so easy to make. They dough is really pliable and easy to work with. So easy that a 9 year old can roll it out with ease. The dough doesn’t stick to counter and keeps its shape in the oven.

Making the Best Soft Gingerbread Cookies

When making Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies it’s key to keep the dough cold. Place the dough in the fridge for a few hours (or overnight) before rolling out. Then return the extra dough to the fridge between rolling out and after you’ve cut out the shapes. This will help them keep their shape while baking.

Traditionally, people add cloves to their Gingerbread Cookies but I don’t really like them and at $7 a bag, (when you only need 1/2 a Tsp) I just couldn’t justify it. I decided to leave it out and I’m glad I did because they tasted perfect. If you prefer to use cloves in your Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies, just add a small amount along with the Ginger and Cinnamon.

To Make The Gluten Free Royal Icing

When decorating cookies it’s important to use Royal Icing, which hardens as it dries. If you use regular icing, it smears when stacked or touched. To make Royal Icing just mix Powdered Sugar with Egg Whites and a splash of Lemon juice. Separate the icing into smaller bowls and add desired food coloring a few drops at a time until you get the color you need. If you add a lot of food coloring to get a really dark color, you may need to add a little more powdered sugar to get your desired thickness. You’ll need to ice them somewhat quickly because the icing does harden as you go.

Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies

My son and I had a blast making these Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies. The dough holds together well enough that he was easily able to roll it out himself. He absolutely loved getting to cut the cookies out and make his own shapes and he especially enjoyed helping me ice them. He was beaming with pride as he told his dad about it when he got home from work. It was the perfect activity to do together to kick off the Holiday Season.
