Sunflower - try a bread recipe that uses all coconut flour, which is high protein and fiber. It's usually just coconut flour, a bunch of eggs, and some rising agent. No starch. I don't have a recipe to recommend off the top of my head, but if you do a search for "coconut flour bread recipe" you'll get some ideas.

Could you let me know what I could substitute for the Maple Syrup? I'm trying to make this sugar free as well. Thanks!

Wow wow wow! What a gorgeous recipe! So excited to make it except one little problem. We can't have seeds of any kind. Is the flax seed meal meant as an egg replacer? (we cant have eggs either). Any suggestions on replacing/substituting for this?

Thanks in advance -

Hi! Your blog is gorgeous. Do you happen to have any gluten free bread recipes that don't use starch? I'm trying to find recipes that don't include any extra starches. Thanks! :)

This cake is amazing. Made two and layered with organic grassed chocolate buttercream frosting for a birthday cake. It was a huge hit. Lighter and fluffier than I thought it was going to be. This cake is brilliant!

Love your blog...but it is misleading when you label this recipe sugar-free. The 1 cup of maple syrup alone has 212 grams of sugar...yikes! Agave, palm sugar, honey, maple syrup, yacon syrup, brown rice syrup and table sugar are to be labeled as sugar...sure you know this. Maybe you could label it as low glycemic sweetened.

Amazing Smoothie! How bout one with sugar snap peas, pears, and ginger. Sure to give a bit of zest to a dull day!

Hi Ali and family,
I adore your blog and finally just ordered your cookbook! Several days ago I stumbled upon the blog and started the elimination diet based on the list of eats/don't eats. I was suffering from a migraine and COMPLETELY missed that I was supposed to begin with the 2 day green smoothie detox. I've been following the diet correctly otherwise and definitely felt horrible the first 3 days so thought I was detoxing. I know I could still do those 2 days now, but I've already cut out lemons (all citrus) at this point. Would you suggest I just continue as I have been, or do those days now with (or without) the citrus? Thank you kindly for any input, I know you must be so busy!

I didn't need to add water. Eve, maybe your applesauce is drier?

I'll definitely make these again, but I'll follow my instinct to make much smaller cookies. The buckwheat/pecan combination makes for heavy cookies, and I want to eat them by the handful, not just one at a time!

This is far and away the best gluten free bread recipe I've ever tried! My daughter loves it. It bakes beautifully on a baking stone - our only frustration is the round loaf turns out so tapered that there are few slices that are appropriate for sandwiches.

I've solved that dilemma by taking a long sheet of parchment paper and folding it lengthwise into a strip about 4"high. I formed my bread into a nice high loaf shape - it's so "gutsy" that it keeps its shape very nicely.

I then stapled the strip into a circle and then folded and stapled down the outside to create four "sides" so it was in the basic rectangular shape of a loaf pan.

It held the bread into the loaf shape beautifully - I let it cool with the collar in place and now have a more sandwich-friendly loaf of wonderful bread. Thanks so much for this awesome recipe!

I made these cookies a couple of days ago...I had my doubts, but they were moist and delicicous.
The kids LOVED them, and I loved the fact that they were healthy!
I didnt mind giving them to the kids as a weeknight treat!
Thanks for the wonderful recipe and for sharing!

I've made these twice, and while tasty, I've had to add a little water bc it won't mix all the flour in. Is there something missing??

Yummy though!

My favorite!!! My dad used to cook it almost the same way, but he would bake it in a brown paper bag. That reminds me to ask him how he did it.

@ Laura, @ Rebecca

Have you had any luck with your bloating issues? I have the same extreme bloating problem, have most of the time for years now, worse at night, I totally understand that feeling of desperation, can't stand looking 15 pounds heavier than I am, or "pregnant". (I am already a vegetarian with a good diet) So far the elimination diet is not helping me either, in fact it seems worse (though it has only been a few days) Planning to go through a full month of it, and if it doesn't help, I plan to test for parasites. Would like to hear your experiences and what has helped you. Thanks. (you can email me directly if you like at theflyingpickle@hotmail.com)

How many servings are in the pumpkin seed smoothie because from my calculations the pumpkin seeds alone are around 1450 calories in this smoothie

Another option for enjoying the collards raw is to cut out the "spine" in the middle and make two smaller wraps from each collard green leaf. Thanks for the recipe!

Thank you sooo much for this recipe! I have been gluten free for about a year now. I have truly missed making bread. I used to make bread every week. I loved kneading it and shaping it. After I entered the gluten free bread world, poof went kneadable. This loaf is reminiscent of a loaf that my husband and I loved out of James Beard's book "Beard on Bread". I never thought I would taste anything that was gluten free that ever tasted anything like that of my gluten memories.

Thank you for making so many things that my whole family can eat and enjoy. You are truly a lifesaver!
