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 […]

SCD Recipe: Strawberries and Cream Gelatin
