SCD Recipe: Caramel Apple Nests
I always used to enjoy making caramel apples for Halloween with my mom. Of course in those days we just bought a big bag a caramels, melted them down and covered the apples with them. But since those caramels are not allowed on SCD we need to make our own […]
SCD Recipe: Caramel Apple Crisp
I have been experimenting with baking without adding a sweetener like honey. This recipe uses dates as the only sweetener. Using honey more sparingly decreases sugar cravings, reduces calories, and it saves money. When I first started SCD I found myself buying honey all the time. I also started getting […]
SCD Recipe: Apple Almond Butter Cups
These little treats don’t contain in sugar. They are perfect if you are doing a detox like the 21 Day Sugar Detox program from Diane Sanfilippo. My jumping off point for this recipe was 21DSD Green Apple and Coconut 2-Bite Treats from PaleOMG. That recipe is completely fine for SCD also […]
SCD Recipe: Blueberry Buckle
This recipe uses the ever elusive dry curd cottage cheese, but if you can find it, it gives cakes a nice moist texture. I also like that it seems to make the cakes more firm. Serving tip: Toast slice in some butter on top of the stove until each side […]

I made: Cherry with Cashew and Almond Butter MixtureStrawberry with Cashew and Almond Butter MixtureBanana with Cashew and […]
SCD Recipe: Strawberries and Cream Gelatin
When I was growing up my great-aunt used to also make a strawberry and cream cheese dessert for me on special occasions. I never got the recipe from her, but I figured I could kind of recreate it using strained SCD yogurt. This turned out very good. Her dessert had […]
SCD Recipe: Coconut Milk Cherry Frozen Custard
I usually skip putting eggs in ice cream because it adds time to the process, but I was thinking about being in New York, which made me think of frozen custard. Frozen custard never really made it out to the west coast (and I don’t remember seeing it on my […]
SCD Recipe: Coconut Milk Vanilla Custard
I’m very excited about this custard. I’ve tried making custard several times since starting SCD – using dry curd cottage cheese, home made yogurt or a combination of both and it’s never turned out all that good. This time – using coconut milk – it turned out just like regular […]
SCD Recipe: Pumpkin Frozen Yogurt
I’ve always wanted to make it and now I finally tried Pumpkin Frozen Yogurt. It’s pretty simple. Ingredients: 2 cups pureed cooked pumpkin4 cups very thick yogurt (I used whole milk yogurt strained overnight)1/2 cup honey (add a little more if you want it sweeter, this was mildly sweet)1 tsp […]
