Coconut Flour Muffins

So, last night was baking night number 1 for SCD. Made these lovely muffins but popped in some crispy bacon and some lovely sage as our herbs. Very nice!
We shared one straight out of the oven after dinner with a cup of tea, and took one to work for lunch, as a replacement of the usual sandwich.
Don't let coconut flour fool you! Only a very small amount is needed.

So long pizza!

Went to all you can eat pizza pasta gelato night at my local last night. Ate 22 slices of thin crust pizza and a couple of desserts. It was my farewell to pizza as I embark on the SCD diet. This morning has been a bit tough as I went for a hard 2 hour ride, straight into work. Had a couple of bananas, dates and dried figs for breakfast but feeling pretty flat. My nut meals are being delivered today. Should be able to buy some muffin tins tomorrow night and be able to bake some higher carb breakfast and riding snacks.
My stomach is not stoked I ate so much pizza. But, just like an alcohol hangover, no pity as it's self induced. :-D
