Guest guest Posted April 30, 2003 Report Share Posted April 30, 2003 Please tell us more about your electric nut/seed grinder. I have tried making the cookies in NT but the almond flour was way too coarse to make good cookies. Is this nut grinder like a coffee grinder?

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 I buy mine from Hughson Nuts because they're pretty close to me. www.hughsonnut.com <http://www.hughsonnut.com> but I see their prices just went up to almost $4/pound... I usually a buy a large quantity and freeze it in an old ice cream freezer I have. Smaller amounts (hence even more expensive) can be purchased at Sun Organics * * http://www.sunorganicfarm.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD & Product_Code=N5\ 23 & Category_Code=FLO & Product_Count=40 And also at Lucy's http://www.lucyskitchenshop.com/flour.html Wow! I just noticed that ALL the prices have gone up a LOT. Maybe the cheapest is at Hughson's -- you just have to buy a lot. If you're REALLY trying to reduce sugar you can make this cake/bread with zucchini's instead of banana's but you'll want to soak the zukes in salted water and then squeeze the excess water out. I'll try to write both these out better if you want and then shoot them over to GFCFNN. I was going to make some today and so let me see if that's exactly the recipe... I make it from scratch each time -- just start throwing things together until it becomes the right consistency. I've made it about 30 times and never had a failure -- although I've used all sorts of combinations. ~Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Steph- >, you mentioned having had delicious cake made with almond flour. >Do you buy premade almond flour or make your own from crispy nuts? If >you buy it premade, do you soak it at all? Also, would you mind sharing >if you have a truly scrumptous recipe? We're about to start the SCD >here - without the dairy, for now. The one almond flour cake recipe I have (somewhere) is a chocolate cake, so it's not strictly NT-friendly. In the past I've gotten almond flour from Lucy's Kitchen Shop, but in the future if I ever get any again I know I should soak the almonds, dry them and make the flour myself. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone ever bought the flour, soaked it and then dehydrated it? Or is that completely ludicrous? LOL. Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one that I know of, but it's probably worth a try. Since the almond flour is pretty coarse, though, I wonder how easy it would be to dry it out... - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
