Simple Grains

My daughter was playing "coffee shop" today and asked me for some doughnuts.
So I threw some sourdough discard in with a few ingredients and then we had fresh cinnamon sugar donut holes!
They're crunchy on the outside and soft inside 🤤
These don't have any yeast, and used 7 ingredients, fried in tallow/coconut oil.

If you're looking for an easy way to get protein in, this loaf is your friend!
It only has 5 ingredients and no rise time.

There's about 4 grams of protein in each smaller slice. The whole grain, unsifted fiber will keep you fuller, longer too!

Ways we use this loaf:
PB&J
Toast and eggs
French toast
Egg/tuna salad

(re)Trying my hand at fresh milled sourdough.
I've used a variation of einkorn, emmer and spelt and have been pleased!

Toasted with butter and some fried eggs..👌🏽

Fresh spelt pancakes for breakfast today!
There's about 12 grams of protein in each serving which isn't bad for pancakes 😊

Threw together some pizzas with my kids 🍕They love to roll the dough, splatter, I mean spread the sauce and top it with cheese!

Making the dough even a few days in advance is so nice if you need a quicker meal. This only took 8 minutes in the oven 👩🏽‍🍳

Fresh milled flour used: einkorn

Cream of wheat used to be something I loved in childhood, now we get to enjoy it as a family AND know it's nourishing our bodies!

I used the ancient grain, Emmer for this and it did not disappoint 🙂

Nothing like hot pizza on Valentine's Day, right?!
We tried our hand at fresh milled flour deep dish pizza, it was a crowd pleaser 🙂

We adapted a recipe for fresh milled flour but it still needs a few tweaks, and a chance to cook in an actual oven before sharing a recipe!

Our oven is out of commission and we have missed our fresh milled flour Dutch baby breakfasts!

I found a dish that fits in our toaster oven and cranked one out for the kids 🙌🏽 we whipped some fresh cream up, with berry compote and devoured it 😊

Recipe in comments (it's soooo simple and nutritious!)

Fresh milled flour crepes, anyone?!

We were part of the "clean plate club" this morning, because these were delicious and nutritious 💪🏽

My husband and I used to get fresh crepes at the Westside Market in Cleveland and these were a bit of a nostalgia hit for us today ❤️
