Today's news: the addition of a new item to my Life List:
Coconut cake is probably my favorite food in the world, and I cannot fathom a future without it. Give up most pasta? Fine. Bread? Big deal. Cakes? No way. Coconut cake? Not on your life. So the only option is to learn to make it gluten-free myself. Of course, I haven't even figured out yet how to bake a cake successfully at altitude (we're at 6000 feet, and it really does change things), nevermind gluten-free, but I'm hoping that cake will be easier to adapt than bread is, since bread really needs gluten, and with cake, you want as little gluten as possible (hence why there is special cake flour that's lower protein/gluten). I'll let you know how my trials go.
If you're interested to see how I crossed off any of those life list items, you can see the full list here or in the top nav, and just click the links!

ReplyDeleteI'm going through such a huge coconut phase! Can't. Get. Enough. I'm excited to hear what you come up with! I'm sorry you're faced with this new challenge, but it sounds like you're not letting it slow you down. Please report back on the cake :)
ReplyDeleteHaha! I have one in the oven right now, but I'm not too hopeful. It does feature coconut flour, coconut oil, coconut sugar, coconut milk and shredded coconut. (Um, yeah, I can relate to that whole can't get enough thing.) :-) I'll let you know!
DeleteI don't think I have seen this list before! Love it! And I also like that you appear to be slightly body/food/exercise obsessed as I am...I think I knew that...but this definitely confirms we are very like minded in this! ;)
