Goats milk is naturally lactose free. So if the sensitivity is to lactose she should not have the problem w/ goats milk. Lactose is the most common problem, I do not know if it is the only one.

Thanks Kassaundra, that would explain why she doesn't have reactions to goats milk.

This cake is even better for breakfast the next day....

I kept it in the fridge overnight and it was sooooo yummy, better even than fresh.

Glad you enjoyed it--I have not made it yet, but will. And the thanks should go to Paula Joanne here o n BYC, as she was the original poster of the recipe. Also Big Brown Horse over at SS who brought it to my attention.

I think I will soak my black beans right now so I can make it tomorrow.

What is the "raw whey" added to the soaking beans?

 

[miss_thenorth]

Whey is the byproduct of cheese making. I make raw whey by straining yogurt (or kefir). When you strain it, the curds make a cheese, and the whey--the liquid, drains out. Then you have two products. The yo-cheese, which is similar to greek style yogurt, --nice and thich and creamy. the whey you can use for lactofermenting (which is what this is), use in baking, making pancakes etc. You don't need to add the whey, if yo don't have it. It jsut helps with the soaking. If you soak the beans long overnight without it, they will be fine.

Thanks, I thought you were talking about the liquid that seperates in yogourt, but wasn't sure. I used to make cheese w/ my gma (was raised by her) when we had milk goats. We (my husband and I) live in town now so saddly no milk goats, but if we ever get to move back to the country that is top of my list.

I didn't have any whey on hand nor yogurt (we love yo-cheese at our house) to drain, so I just added a dollop of apple cider vinegar to the water and boiled my beans for 2 minutes, let them sit for a couple of hours to soak and then cooked them.....and followed the recipe....

I made chocolate muffins for my GFCF daughter's birthday. I used Bob's Red Mill chocolate cake mix, dark chocolate almond milk and enjoylife dairy free chocolate chips. They turned out fantastic!

Our stores have several choices of GF cake mixes, but I chose the red mill because it made 18 cupcakes compared to Betty Crockers mix that only made 12. I like cupcakes because I can freeze some and always have a treat on hand when my kids go to a party.

I have lots of GFCF recipes on my website. http://www.kittycooks.com/

Kitty, Your web site is awesome! So many wonderful looking recipes! My daughter would love me to make your Fruit Pizza for her BD. We live in podunk, though, and I am afraid I will have to order things like the creamed coconut online.

Thank you for posting the link!
