everyday buckwheat chocolate coffee-cake
(1 RATING)
I went into the kitchen today with a chocolate craving and came out with this. Just made it up as I went along! Like to get some feedback on it, I wanted to add a peanut butter swirl, but I didn't have any peanut butter today :( And As always this is GFCF!

Step 6A Note about Gluten and Casein Free Ingredients: Since my family began this diet, we have discovered that you always have to read the labels on the foods you buy. This week when shopping I may buy something that is clearly gfcf and next week when I look for the same item I will notice they have changed the ingredient list adding dry milk, or maltodextrin, or some other questionable ingredient. I find that it's best to stick to unprocessed foods whenever possible- make it from scratch. My son is on the autism spectrum, its not the end of the world if he gets a little gluten or casein, while it may ruin his day, it isn't life threatening. I always watch him for symptoms and note the offending food. Please keep this in mind while selecting your ingredients for my GFCF recipes. Happy Careful Shopping! :)
