Eat the Alphabet #5: D

The Letter D

Surprisingly there's not a lot of things that I found that start with the letter D.

We decided on:

Daikon, dill and dandilion salad


And Duck with dijon


Surprisingly, Toby at EVERYTHING. He usually doesn't like radish, but the daikon is a bit milder.


Then for dessert, Date doughnuts with dragonfruit.



Gluten-free vegan Doughnuts

3/4 cup rice flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp xanthan gum
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp powdered egg replacer with two Tbsp water, (or 1 egg)
2 Tbsp canola oil
2 Tbsp agave nectar
1/4 cup almond milk
1/2 cup fruit (strawberries, blueberries, dates, apple, cranberries, etc)

Preheat oven to 350F.
Chop or food process strawberries to make half a cup
In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, xanthan gum, salt and cinnamon with a fork.
In a separate bowl, combine oil, milk, agave and egg. Mix well. Add strawberries and mix again.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry bowl and stir until no dry flour remains.
Spoon into prepared non-stick mini muffin pans or doughnut pans, only filling half of each cup.
Bake for 15 minutes, until golden and a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
Leave in the pans about 5 minutes after pulling from the oven. Remove onto wire racks to cool further.

Makes 24 mini cups, or 6 large doughnuts
