Brownies
I ran across a brownie recipe (I think maybe a FB posted it?), and I thought it looked interesting.
As a baker I was decent, cupcakes were my expertise, but brownies, ugh! I loved brownies, but they hated me... I never could get them to bake up the right way. It was really annoying.
So now I'm skeptical of brownie recipes, but given that we are desperate, and the recipe is ridiculously easy, I thought we'd try it.
Brownie recipe:
1 cup Nut Butter (I wanted to use cashew butter, but I didn't have enough, so I went with Sunbutter)
1/2 Cup Honey (you could use less, I think)
1/4 Cup Coconut oil
1 Egg
Mix all ingredients together.
Pour into an 8x8 dish.
Bake* at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
*I sprinkled a few dark chocolate chips on top before baking.
Mine burnt a bit, so I'm not posting a photo (next time!)
Anyway, they looked like brownies... even if they were a little flat, but hey, it was a brownie! And it was soooooo yummy. Nutty, yet sweet, and a hint of chocolate.
Most of us always have the ingredients around anyway, so it's a great pick-me-up if you need it.
Try it!
Happy St. Joseph's feast day too :)

Egg in a Mug, help!
Okay, so early on in the GP journey somebody left me a recipe for making eggs in a coffee mug. I finally bought the mugs last week (we're not coffee drinkers) and then I forgot the recipe! And I can't remember under which post it would be.
So if you know who you are (Polly, maybe?) and you know which recipe I'm talking about, (eggs and flax, I think?) please comment below!
Thank you :)
