Summer Raspberry Jam
July 1, 2020

Summer Raspberry Jam

I am still loving all the jam right now! Homemade jam is so simple to make and contains way less sugar than what you find in the store.

This recipe is super versatile and can be used for so many different things. I love putting it on yogurt, toast, or oatmeal. However, there are a few other fun dessert recipes on the page that you can use this great jam for.

I love having a sweet and tart jam around to add to yogurt bowls, rice cakes, a PB&J, or just to snack on. This recipe is simple and much more nutritious than any store bought jam. Try swapping out the traditional Smucker’s for this to …

DID SOMEONE SAY SAMOAS?
May 1, 2020

DID SOMEONE SAY SAMOAS?

 

Yep! I did say Samoa!

Honestly, as a child I never tried a Samoa. Something about the coconut or the idea that my mom loved them made them not appealing to me. I have to admit that I have still never had a Samoa, but I know how popular they are, so I figured it was time to make a cleaner version. I found a recipe on EatingBirdFood’s page, and adapted it to make a more coconut-y flavor. Funny, I know, I love coconut now!

Now before you try these, you must know they are amazing. They are also dangerously easy to make, so you will likely end up making more. However, they are made with natural ingredients, so don’t feel bad about having a few as a sweet treat.

Treat yourself by avoiding the processed Girl Scout cookies and giving yourself a more nutrient rich sweet option.

DID SOMEONE SAY SAMOAS?

Servings: 4
Author: Emerson Porter

Equipment

  • pan, parchment paper, cookie pan

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes I prefer the flakes, not the shredded coconut. I get the flakes at Trader Joes or Harris Teeter
  • 2 cups pitted dates unsweetened
  • 1 tsp coconut extract add more if you like the taste
  • 85% dark chocolate

Instructions

Instructions

  • Line your cookie tray with parchment paper.
  • Heat up your pan with medium hi heat.
  • Once your pan is warm, toast your coconut flakes until they are golden brown (be careful not to burn! Remove from heat when toasted. About 2-4 minutes
  • Place toasted coconut, pitted dates, and coconut extract in food processor or blender. Blend until they are combined into a sticky dough that can be formed into cookies. They should be sticky but not get very stuck to your hands.
  • Roll about a tablespoon amount into a wafer for each cookie. Put cookie your cookie tray that has parchment paper on it. Poke a hole in the middle with a metal straw or chopstick (you don't have to do this, but it really gives the Samoa effect)
  • Place in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm.
  • Melt a bar of dark chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stir in between (I used about 85%, but you can do anywhere from 70-100%)
  • Remove cookies from freezer and drizzle with chocolate. Place back in freezer to firm chocolate.
  • Simply leave out for a few minutes to thaw a little before devouring.
    Once the chocolate is firm you can store in the refrigerator.
  • If you happen to have any left over, place in container and store in freezer.
    Disclaimer: some "pitted date" packages have random hidden pits in them. If you encounter a pit while making, remove from the batter. I did not remove some that were in the batter and my dad was not happy to bite into a hard pit!

THINNER MINTS

  Thinner? Not literally, but they are cleaner and better for you! EatingBirdFood hit the target with these. I only made small adjustments to this one because they were already super amazing. If you have picky taste testers, they may enjoy a lighter chocolate coating, …
