Grain 'n' Sugar Free: Information and Recipe Blogs

I have been busy since we started Grain 'n' Sugar free in collecting links to great sites of grain free/sugar free recipe sites. Some of these are complete grain free, some are gluten free and most can be adapted to sugar free.

Below are the notes I have made to myself as I typed them in so really it may contain doubles of some sites and some added bits and pieces for my own information


Ok in my research Gluten free blogs are so different to grain free.
Grain free use almond flour coconut flour that you ahve to add.
Gluten free recipes tend to have rice four and other products and often have a pre packaged mix to start from. Pre packed is easier for people but just dosen't work for grain  free, not sure how they taste either., I have heard that they are not as nice.

We are in the process of changing some of what we have done over the past three weeks and I know I still have much to share on this topic but for now here is my list for your own benefit. I hope you may see some old and favourite sites but perhaps some new ones as well.

Oh and if you know a great site or book please give me a heads up in the comments section.

Below are specific sites as well as individual recipes I thought looked interesting.

Arrowroot acts as a thickener in the same way you would cornflour. Use it to thicken sauces. Also add up to ¼ cup to your recipe to soften and lighten the texture if and to increase the effectiveness of the raising agent if you're using one (such as baking powder, yeast or baking soda). Make up to half of your flour mixture with arrowroot or potato flour if you're baking a bread.

 Honey Information - I will be substituting honey for Agave nectar One note - the paler and more transparent the honey, the more neutral the flavor. If you are seeking a sweetener that doesn't impart flavor, avoid heavy, dark colored honeys. If you are looking to flavor the product with a honey taste, use the darker honeys. I don't know how flavorful agave is, but I tend toward the milder honeys for light colored baked goods, and darker honeys for darker, more heavily spiced baked goods. Frozen chips- Black and Gold - Non-Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil
 and Sodium Acid Polyphosphate 


Kendra uses coconut sugar in cookies and for cakes and muffins honey ( half the sugar content)  but for every cup honey   + 1 tsp baking soda
1/4 1/2 tsp stevia  + tbs honey 


Blessings to you and your homes,
