Macaroons

Feather Light Macaroons

These baked goods made with whole-wheat flour are anything but heavy.
Ingredients:

1 tablespoon virgin coconut oil, as needed
1 tablespoon whole wheat pastry flour, as needed
3 egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon stevia or other healthy low-carb sweetener, or less to taste
1/2 cup dry unsweetened finely shredded coconut
1/3 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
Directions:

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Grease a cookie sheet with 1 tablespoon coconut oil and sprinkle it with 1 tablespoon flour. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff enough to stand in peaks. Beat in the vanilla and the stevia. In a separate bowl, combine the coconut, (1/3 cup) flour, and baking soda. Mix well, and then add the lemon juice and the maple syrup. Mix again. Carefully fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture and drop it by the spoonful onto the prepared cookie sheet. Bake at 300 degrees F. for about 20-25 minutes or until golden, then turn off the oven, remove the cookies from the cookie sheet and transfer them to a baker’s rack (or the racks of the oven) and let them set in the warm oven for another 20 minutes.

Makes about 18 cookies

Vanilla Hemp Mesquite Milk

1 C Nutiva hemp seeds (these are the freshest of all)
1 T mesquite pod meal
1 tsp. vanilla
3-4 C pure water

Combine hemp, mesquite, vanilla and 1/2 of the water in blender. Buzz until mixture begins to get creamy and smooth. Slowly add the remaining water, blend another moment, and serve. Great as a smoothie base, excellent over granola, hot or cold cereal, grated or sliced apples or selected fresh fruit. The fiber, Omega 3 fatty acids and protein in this mix puts it into the power food category, this to be a life sustaining mix! Mesquite pod meal is a fabulous thickener. it can replace an egg in a recipe for pancakes, waffles or quick breads. Try using it to replace half the sugar in a cookie recipe, or to sprinkle as a topping instead of brown sugar. Amazing unique sweet flavor !

To order mesquite meal (rich in protein, fiber, minerals, and low glycemic glucose) contact Chakra Earthsong at 805-646-6602 or freelife@west.net . The price is $14 for a 1 pound bag-plus $4 shipping in the continental US. Chakra is a holistic nutritional consultant and live food educator.
