THE HOLIDAYS USUALLY MEAN
MORE COOKIES, PIES, CAKES, AND
BREAD.
IT CAN BE HARD TO ENJOY YOUR
FAVORITE TREATS WITHOUT
OVERINDULGING.
THERE ARE WAYS TO CREATE
HEALTHY ALTERNATIVES.
WE GO OVER EASY INGREDIENTS
LOSS.
TWO THANK YOU FOR JOINING US
TONIGHT, THERE'S A LOT OF
BAKING RECIPES THAT OBVIOUSLY
INCORPORATE FLOWER.
ARE THERE ACTUAL HEALTHIER
ALTERNATIVES TO FLOWER?
ABSOLUTELY.
THERE'S QUITE A FEW DIFFERENT
OPTIONS ON THE MARKET.
SOME OF THE MOST COMMON ONES
YOU WILL SEE NO ARE DIFFERENT
TYPES OF NOT FLOWERS.
THINGS LIKE ALMOND FLOUR.
YOU WILL SEE THINGS LIKE
COCONUT FLOUR. THE THING IS
REALLY IMPORTANT TO BE MINDFUL
OF IS IF YOU'RE UTILIZING A
FLOWER ALTERNATIVE TO THE MOST
COMMON WHICH IS ALL-PURPOSE
FLOUR, IT'S NOT ALWAYS A 1-1
RATIO.
MOST OFTEN YOU WANT TO MAKE
SURE THEY ARE SWAPPING OUT
APPROPRIATE IF USING A
TRADITIONAL RECIPE TO SWAP OUT
AN INGREDIENT.
WHY SHOULD I BE SWITCHING OFF
GOOD REGULAR FLOUR?
WHAT ARE THE RECENT MAYBE
SWITCH OFF?
THE ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR IS
EXCEPTIONALLY PROCESSED.
IT GOES THROUGH A LOT OF
DIFFERENT STAGES WHERE THE
BLEACH IT.
OUR BODY.
EVEN THOSE WHO MAY NOT NOTICE I
HAVE AN ISSUE WITH GLUTEN.
ANYTIME WE CAN ILLUMINATE THE
HIGH INFLAMMATORY INGREDIENTS
IS ALWAYS A WIN.
SUGAR IS HONESTLY A HUGE
COMPONENT OF WHAT WE PUT
TOGETHER THIS HOLIDAY SEASON,
HOW CAN WE SUBSTITUTE SOME OF
THE SUGAR?
THAT IS A TOUGH ONE
ESPECIALLY DURING THE HOLIDAY
SEASON.
A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE WILL GO
FOR NATURAL SUGAR ALTERNATIVES
LIKE HONEY, OR EVEN MAPLE
SYRUP.
WHICH IS IN A RECIPE I HAVE FOR
YOU GUYS TONIGHT.
OR YOU CAN GO WITH MORE WELL-
KNOWN ALTERNATIVES. THESE TEND
TO HAVE MUCH LESS IMPACTS ON
BLOOD SUGAR ALLOWING PEOPLE TO
UTILIZE THEM ON A REGULAR BASIS
AND NOT FEEL BAD ABOUT THE
SUITE.
FLOWER WE SWAPPED OUT THE
SUGAR, ARE THERE ANY OTHER
COMPONENTS IN RECIPES FOR
ANOTHER BIG ONE IN 70 DAYS IS
BUTTER.
IF YOU DO WANT TO SWAP THAT OUT,
YOU CAN USE AN APPLESAUCE AS AN
ALTERNATIVE.
USE COCONUT OIL OR A GRAPESEED
OIL OR OLIVE OIL.
IF IT'S NOT A RECIPE THAT CALLS
FOR THOSE INGREDIENTS I
ENCOURAGE YOU TO DO A QUICK
SEARCH AND MAKE SURE THEY ARE
THE PROPER RATIOS.
BESIDES GOING TO THOSE OILS
LIKE COCONUT OR OLIVE OIL, I
WOULD WE SWITCH AWAY FROM YOUR
STANDARD BOTTLE OF VEGETABLE
THE VEGETABLE OILS, I
MENTIONED INFLAMMATION, THEY
CREATE INFLAMMATORY PATHWAYS
OPENING UP IN THE BODY IN
CREATING ISSUES FOR PEOPLE.
THE VEGETABLE OILS INCLUDING
CANOLA OIL CAN'T EXACERBATE
EXISTING INFORMATION. ANYTIME
WE CAN MINIMIZE OR ELIMINATE A
VEGETABLE-BASED OIL OR EVEN THE
CANOLA OIL I WOULD CALL THAT A
BIG WIN.
IF YOU CAN SWAP FOOD OUT THAT
HAVE THE HIGH OILS IT'S A GREAT
LIFE CHOICE.
YOU HAVE A RECIPE THAT YOU
GUYS ARE SO EXCITED ABOUT?
IT'S A VERY SIMPLE ONE.
SHE WAS VERY EXCITED ABOUT IT.
IT DID NOT TAKE VERY LONG AT
ALL.
IS A COUPLE OF CUPS OF THE
ALMOND FLOUR YOU CAN FIND IN
MOST BAKING AISLES.
I USED TWO TABLESPOONS OF MAPLE
SYRUP.
TWO TABLESPOONS OF COCONUT OIL.
I WILL USE ONE EGG.
I WANTED A LITTLE MORE FLAVOR
SO I ADDED SOME VANILLA EXTRACT.
YOU'RE GOING TO TOSS IT IN THE
REFRIGERATOR.
I FIXED THEM FOR 15 MINUTES IN
300 D DEGREE OF IN.
I HAVE LOVELY LOOKING COOKING'S
COOKIES.
'S ARE AN ALTERNATIVE TO
SHORTBREAD.
THERE IS A NICE HINT OF THE
VANILLA.
YOU CANNOT SPRINKLES INTO THE
MIXTURE OR EVEN DO SOME RED
FOOD COLORING OR EVEN
STRAWBERRIES IF YOU WANT TO GET
A NATURAL COLORING AGENT.
YOU DO NOT ADD A BUNCH OF
DIFFERENT INGREDIENTS TO MAKE
SOMETHING HEALTHY YOU TO
SWITCHED OUT.
IT'S VERY SIMPLE TO MAKE.
IT TOOK ME ABOUT FIVE MINUTES.
THAT INCLUDED THE TIME GOT ALL
THE INGREDIENTS OUT ON MY
COUNTER AND MADE MY DAUGHTER
COUNT THEM TO MAKE SURE WE HAD
EVERYTHING TOGETHER.
THANK YOU FOR THESE TIPS,
HOPEFULLY PEOPLE CAN APPLY THEM
BEYOND THE HOLIDAY SEASON.
THANK YOU FOR HAVING TIME FOR
US TODAY.
THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
YOU WILL FIND MORE
