What size baking pan should be used? Where do you stand on maple syrup? I can see it being scrumptious in this recipe.

Lower fat and lower sugar Cookies than other recipes:

1.5-2 cups of unfortified organic flour (I use whole wheat)
2 tablespoons of coconut oil
1-2 organic eggs (yellow yolk not orange)
1 teaspoon bicarb soda (can add 1 teaspoon of baking powder too)
2 scoops of Organic whey protein powder
Golden caster Sugar 60 grams (Dextrose seems like a better bet)
Organic Chocolate chips or two squares of a milk chocolate - I know chocolate is not ideal.. Any substitute ideas for chocolate that taste like chocolate are welcomed

Do not brown the cookies, browning baked goods means AGES - Advanced Glycation End products which are toxic to the liver and cells

What is the purpose for the dextrose? It is a type of sugar, but isn't there enough in the bananas, or does it serve another purpose other than for sweetening in the recipe?

To avoid fructose which supposdley slows down the liver

To avoid fructose which supposdley slows down the liver

Not to be dense, but doesn't the bananas have enough sugar for the recipe? If dextrose is just a substitute for fructose. I get it., but why not just use regular cane sugar, or is there some other 'benefit' to using dextrose

True good point ask @charlie I guess he's just trying to reduce the total fructose load I guess

I made the oat bars this morning spread out on a big baking sheet lined with parchment. After they were done I let them cook and then cut them into pieces. I am drying them in a low heat oven since the insides are pretty moist and not to my liking. I think next time I will just drop spoonfuls on the parchment to make individual cookies. They taste great!

Dextrose makes it a little sweeter which I like and the glucose is pure fuel for the liver to detox. So you get the liver pumping out toxins and the oats to soak up the toxins. A bit of detoxmaxing if you will.

7-Inch Sourdough Boule (GF/V) Recipe by Fresh is Real

How's this for a sourdough bread? I've been making this for about 1 month now and it's the best tasting gluten free sourdough bread I've made. It has no eggs, no dairy. It's using different GF flours and psyllium, and one could possibly adjust them to still get 350g of GF flours. I didn't have buckwheat flour on hand, so I substituted with cassava and sorghum flours.

what about phytic acid in oats? Do you sprout them?

 

[charlie]

what about phytic acid in oats?

Does not concern me.

Do you sprout them?

Sprouting increases "vitamin A" so I do not sprout.

 

[Dave Clark]

Phytic acid, {in particular, being used as IP-6}, is one that has been deemed a boogie man, but people should relegate that concept to the Sci fi bin, not the trash bin.
