Strawberries season

Kyle was gone earlier this week and look what he came home with!?

Breakfasts have been different lately.  I’m really into starting the day with fruit right now and I can’t seem to get enough berries (but then I add nut butter to hold me over).

So when Kyle brought the crate home I was in heaven.

I also made chia jam.

With a bit of shaved ginger for some extra zing.

Then I baked these muffins, which are made with tapioca starch and coconut flour.  I made some tweaks and although they look a little flat, they popped out of the muffin tin easily and smelled insane.

And then I made two loaves of bread.  I based the recipe off of Danielle Walker’s strawberry shortcake cupcakes but made bread instead, which meant I baked it for ~45 minutes instead of the 15 called for.

Against All Grain baked goods have never let me down, so I knew I could count on this one…and even with all the tweaks I made it still worked out so well!

If you’re surrounded by an abundance of berries too, consider making either of those.  Or this recipe for strawberry breakfast bars that was a runner up option.

And because I did this all in one night, you can tell I was majorly procrastinating on a bunch of other things…

School is out!  Let’s get summer going!

    Yummmmm! I wish G were not allergic to strawberries…I haven’t had any in way too long since we don’t buy them or order them when out etc. I didn’t realize how much I missed them til I saw this. Everything looks fantastic!!

    Kyle wins for Best Homecoming Gift Ever!! Those berries look SO incredible- i would have absolutely just eaten them until my tummy ached…. great idea with the chia jam, i like using seedy berries for chia jam so you don’t really notice the chia texture. That bread and muffins look fantastic too, what a great way to make them last longer. I don’t think i have ever tried strawberries and nut butter…aside from pb and j of course. I need to do that!
