outside the pantry
I’m a foodie, nutrition nut, and advocate for the underrepresented in agriculture and the culinary world. I’m also a “starving” artist so I get quite creative and resourceful in the kitchen. I love going to the store and finding a grain I’ve never seen before. My hope is to encourage people’s curiosities in the their kitchens and diets, to think “outside the pantry/box”. Food isn’t just nutrition for our bodies, but nutrition for our souls. Oh yes, and I want to have fun!

Zen cupcakes!
Grain free, dairy free and fruit sweetened chocolate cupcakes. Innocently decadent! ;)
Of course not exactly the same aa the sinful counterpart, but i don't care for super sweet sweets. I've been baking with chickpea flour lately and rather liking in. Works differently than wheat flours but i'm liking it's results :)
I sweeten using raisins i soak in water then drain and puree in my vitamix. I'm gonna work on the recipe a bit more before posting. The frosting is more of a challenge. I'm rather a snob when it comes to cake. I aim to make a cloud in pastry form ;)
