Keeping It Healthier

One way I can keep my desserts a little healthier is by keeping the sugars to unrefined and as natural as possible: sucanat, honey, or maple syrup. And that’s only if I want to make a dessert that uses sugar. Sometimes I’ll make it trim healthy by using monk fruit and stevia instead, which keeps it completely sugar free. Also, using an ancient grain like einkorn is better for our digestive system if I choose to make something without sourdough, or again, keeping it trim healthy and low carb by using almond and coconut flours instead.

However, the mood strikes when it wills, it seams. And my sourdough starter comes to the rescue a lot! In the future I plan to share a sourdough version of this recipe. But for now you can check out the other ways I love to use my sourdough starter on the fly.

BEST Fudge Brownie Skillet Pie Recipe

Equipment

10″ cast iron skillet

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted over low heat in skillet
• 1 cup sucanat sugar; turbinado and coconut sugars can be subbed
• 1/3 cup einkorn flour; I use freshly ground einkorn berries
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup cocoa
• 1/2 TBS vanilla extract
• 3 large eggs

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350º F
2. Over low heat, melt butter in your cast iron skillet
3. Remove skillet from burner and add all the dry ingredients, then add the eggs last
4. With a wooden spoon, stir to combine
5. Bake for 20-30 min, watching for middle to be set. We’re looking for a fudgy consistency. Don’t overbake.
6. Allow to cool 10 min before serving. Enjoy!

That’s it! I mean, how easy was that? I love it when I can mix everything in the same vessel that it’s baked in — less cleanup! And THAT makes this from-scratch mama sing and dance. And probably my children, too, since they have dish duties.
