Grain-Free Pumpkin Bread French Toast



Grain- Free Pumpkin Bread French Toast 
(Paleo)


I have been in the Autumn spirit ever since my trip to New York City recently.  I love Autumn and the vegetables that come from this time of year are my favorite!  I am always looking for ways to incorporate them into my diet!  The air this morning is crisp and cool and I have a heavenly glimpse of what I miss most about this season.  I remember bonfires and hay rides.  I took my daughter to the apple orchards when she was young and we would carve pumpkins every Halloween.  Unfortunately in Florida this season in easily missed so I am always looking for ways to bring back those memories.  Some of my favorites things to make include pumpkin butter, pumpkin pancakes, roasted root vegetables, and roasted beets.  So this time I have decided to upgrade an old classic favorite: French Toast.  
As a Health Coach there are some food rules I have come to follow in my journey to better health and healing myself from hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue.  The number one food rule is USE REAL FOOD!  I stay away from processed foods and that means when I bake I don't use processed sugar and I also prefer gluten free or grain free flours.  I recommend to all my clients to eat whole foods, but everything else is very individualized. One person's treasure can be another person's poison.

So this wonderful recipe comes from wanting something yummy for breakfast but different.  First you have to start with the PUMPKIN BREAD, you can find this recipe on my website but I will show you it quickly here!

To make the Pumpkin Bread mix the almond flour, coconut flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and baking soda till fine without any lumps.  In a separate bowl whisk the eggs, pumpkin, coconut milk, coconut oil, and honey. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet and incorporate until smooth and creamy. Pour in oiled bread pan and bake for 45 minutes at 350.  Get my recipe here : Pumpkin Bread Paleo

Exclusive Weekend Events!
Greetings!
I have two wonderful events coming up this weekend!! Check them out and join us for some fun and information.
Hapyy Women's Health Class
OCTOBER 13 at 1 PM

Traditionally, women have not been taught to have good boundaries or to take good care of themselves. Moment to moment, seven days a week, 24 hours a day, they are asked to lend their wisdom, skill, creative energy and good cheer to support the growth and success of their employers, husbands, lovers, children and communities while their own needs are put on hold. Like the Great Mother, they have been assumed to have infinite resources. And because they love life and love people, they have dug deeply to provide for them. But sooner or later, one by one, women are discovering that in order to continue to enjoy life with those they love, they have to learn to make more careful choices to nourish and sustain themselves.
The Workshop will cover:
  • What are some problems with the USDA healthy eating pyramid?
  • What is better about whole foods? 
  • Explain primary foods as essential nourishment.
  • We all know lots of things we could do to take better care of ourselves, but we don't do them.
The key to success is having support.

Deconstructing Cravings 
Workshop Details

The body is an amazing source of intelligence. It is always there for you, pumping blood, never skipping a heartbeat, digesting whatever food you put in it and maintaining homeostasis. Is this reliable, intelligent bio-computer making a mistake by craving ice cream or a hamburger or chocolate? Are cravings due to lack of will-power or discipline? I'd like to suggest that cravings are not a problem. They are critical pieces of information that tell you what your body needs.

 

The important thing is to understand why you crave what you crave. During this workshop you will learn the major causes of cravings and some simple ways to eliminate them.  We will discuss major common cravings such as chocolate, sweets, coffee, and alcohol and discuss the possible things your are missing nutritionally that could be causing these cravings and give you healthy alternatives.
