Foraging fun - crabapples!

There are two crabapple trees growing in my apartment complex, and it is hard to resist going 'crabapple picking'. Yesterday I did just that, and laboriously chopped up the apples to make applesauce.(This is not for the faint of heart. But it is worth it in my opinion!) A batch of coconut-crabapple muffins is in the oven even as we speak, a strange combination of local/foraged food and imported tropical food. :)

GAPS "Pumpkin" muffins

I modified the coconut banana muffin recipe to use 1 cup acorn squash in place of the bananas, and added cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves for seasoning. They came out delicious! Here is the recipe:
Beat 6 eggs and 1/4 cup each of honey and coconut oil or melted butter. Add 1 cup each of mashed squash and coconut flour. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Make as muffins for 20-25 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Enjoy!

Delicious Stage 1 muffins!

I was looking at a blog called "The SCD girl and her kid" and it has some awesome recipes that anyone early on SCD should try. Included was a recipe for carrot pancakes, which I had made before instead of squash pancakes. There was also a recipe for muffins. It called for 2 cups pureed fruit of veggie, so I used 1 cup each of applesauce and mashed carrots. I used the eggs, honey, and coconut oil, but omitted the cinnamon and vanilla. Best grain free muffins without nuts I ever tasted!
