15 Feb Oat & Millet Sourdough Waffles

Posted at 08:00h in Pancakes & Waffles, Sourdough by Thea Tillberg 12 Comments

Do you wanna know the secret to super crispy waffles? The answer is sourdough! Seriously, these are some of the best waffles I've ever had and I've eaten quite a lot of waffles during my 18 years of existance. For a long time I thought you needed wheat to make a crispy waffle, or at least a flour made from gluten grains, but oh my how wrong I was. I've tried making gluten free waffles several times and they've always turned out delicious but they've never been crispy. You see, I've always made them with baking powder and then compared them with...

08 Feb Seeded Gluten Free Sourdough Bread

A friend of my mother loves my recipe for gluten free sourdough bread. She told me that she likes to make a healthier version of it by substituting some of the flour for seeds. I thought it sounded like a great idea so I made my own version of a seeded gluten free sourdough bread and it was delicious! Both the method and the ingredients list are pretty similar to my original sourdough bread recipe. The biggest change is that I've replaced the sorghum flour for flax seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds and chia seeds. What you get is a delicious,...

01 Feb Pecan and Dried Cranberry Oat Scones

Posted at 14:52h in Muffins & Scones by Thea Tillberg 16 Comments

I don’t know how you like your scones but I want mine to be buttery, soft, perfectly crumbly, rustic, a little sweet, hearty, wholesome, satisfying, healthy enough to eat for breakfast, crunchy on the top and as far from dry as you can come. Does this sound like the perfect scone to you? Then I can assure you that you’ve come to the right place today. I’ve been playing around with this recipe for pecan and dried cranberry oat scones for a while now and it’s loosely based on my raspberry oatmeal scone recipe. However, I’ve made some changes and I’ve also substituted...

23 Jan Rice Flour Pancakes with Cloudberry Compote

Posted at 11:46h in Pancakes & Waffles by Thea Tillberg 6 Comments

These last few weeks I've been working on a school musical(which I told you about here) and it's been so much fun but it's also been one of the hardest things I've ever done. So much work and stress and so little sleep. Of course it's sad that all of this will be over in a few days but I'm really looking forward to having normal schooldays again and not coming home at midnight every day. Unfortunately there's been no time for baking and the only way I've been able to deal with my baking abstinence is by making pancakes. I've made both healthier flourless blueberry pancakes and...

11 Jan Mini Chocolate Chip Banana Granola Cookies

Posted at 15:00h in Chocolate, Cookies by Thea Tillberg 22 Comments

I love these cookies. Everyone in my family (including my sister who's a very picky eater) loves them. They're super easy to make and it's a foolproof recipe, no creaming butter or beating eggs, just mix everything together and bake. Sometimes I like when things are a little bit more complicated and time consuming. I mean, I love baking with sourdough and that's as far as you can come from quick and easy. However, that doesn't mean I can't enjoy making a batch of super easy mini granola cookies. Even though I didn’t put this recipe in the breakfast category you could totally come away with...

04 Jan Lavender Truffles

Sadly, I didn’t have time to make any truffles before christmas, so I made lavender truffles to celebrate the new year instead! A classic christmas treat with a summery twist. You could actually make and serve these anytime of the year since they're made with dried lavender buds. If you’re anything like me you’ll have dried up some lavender so that you can use it throughout the year(do you remember my lavender project this summer?). To be honest, the only christmas sweets I made this year were the ones I posted on the blog; Swedish saffron buns, a gingerbread tipi, christmas raisin bread(not sweet,...
