Remember the bread from a few weeks back? Yeah? Great. Here is a new version of it. Personally I believe it is even better than the last. (And a whole bunch of my guinea pigs thought so too.)
almond flour
As mentioned before, bread is something that I miss sometimes. Europeans have a rich history of bread making and the variety you get from France – via Spain, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic – past Germany – and into Denmark and Sweden is just breathtaking. I literally could try my way through all of them.
I am no vegetarian. And with a starch-free lifestyle, it is almost impossible to be one. Besides; meatballs, who could possibly live without them? I can’t, that’s for sure. And they actually taste rather nice with almond flour. Trust me on that one.
I am actually getting better when it comes to crisp bread. More daring if you so will. And I let you in on a secret; I am getting better with the taste of it too. No more comparison with cement or plaster.
As I mentioned in a few blog posts, I have been experimenting with almond flour and bread making. I am not entirely sure if I was successful in my endeavours, but I’ll let you in on a secret.
Here is another take on the crispbread and knäckebröd. Having spend Christmas home – en famille – I met with my cousin. Needless to say that the parmesan is her idea.
Knäckebröd has always been a staple in my normal diet. Unfortunately, all of them are made with grain-flour. I also love British shortbread and crisp bread … and have a similar problem.
I am usually quite content with eating starch-free. There is nothing (apart from German bread maybe) that I so dearly miss or could not possibly live without. But there are times when I am tested; and THEN there are times when I cave in. Our annual Sockerfrossa is one of those events.
Those not only LOOK better, they also TASTE amazing. I changed the recipe around a little.
Well. I lied. Apparently.
Could actually also have something to do with the fact that I LOOKED at the recipe (even read it) and then decided to EXPERIMENT. Granted, it was supposed to be a test and all.
So here is the recipe.
