[Actually, we're doing more of a streusel topping this year.]

ORDER YOUR APPLE OR BLUEBERRY PIE FOR JULY 4TH
$19.95

These are good. The blueberry filling is lightly sweetened with agave, the apple with apricot jam, and the streusel topping is sweetened with maple sugar. The crust is made out of organic shortening from sustainably-harvested palm oil; eggs from local, free-range chickens; and flour from California-grown whole-grain brown rice.

But they’re so good! You would never guess they were “health-food!”

Order now to pick up the week before the 4th.

Lately we’ve been pulling muffins and rolls out of the freezer every morning to have ready for people at lunch. We now consider what’s left at the end of the day - that’s after 5:00, Mon-Thurs - “Day Old” @ HALF PRICE! Stop in on your way home and see what we have!

After the Hadassah magazine article on us, not a day goes by without someone asking us for challah, or at least the recipe for our mock-”challah” rolls.

{Insert wavy “flashback” effect here.}
It all began with Wendy Wark’s Workable Wonder Dough, a recipe I discovered in the book Cooking Gluten Free! Read the rest of this entry »

As I pulled what must be my 1000th failure of a gluten-free / yeast-free loaf out of the oven, I thought to myself (rather nastily, sorry to say), there is a REASON why the rabbis said that wheat & other glutenous grains FERMENT, and grains like rice and millet ROT. It is freaking impossible to make a decent gluten-free yeast-free bread.

Duh. Am I the stupidest creature that ever walked the earth or what? OATS. Oats are gluten-free. Oats ferment.

To the lab!!
