Healthier baking:

I stock my pantry at home with these basics that help me to bake fairly low sugar and nutrient-dense muffins, snacks and some treats. This is a succinct list with links of frequently used ingredients in my baking recipes.

Almond flour (substitute for white flour)

Coconut flour (substitute for white flour)

Spelt flour (substitute for white flour)

Coconut Sugar (lower glycemic index sweetener…replaces white and brown sugar)

Arrowroot powder (Thickening agent, substitute for cornstarch)

Gluten-free old fashioned rolled oats (substitute for instant oatmeal)

Avocado Oil (sub for vegetable oil)

Coconut Oil (Sub for vegetable oil)

Dates (Sweetener)

Cacao Powder (Cocoa powder substitute)

Maple Syrup (Great for baking and sugar replacement)

 

Pantry Staples:

This is a short list of items I always keep on hand, including some favorite spice mixes. I always check my pantry for these things before I go to the store so I never run out. I find a lot of these items at Trader Joes or my local Whole Foods, but I have linked to Amazon here for convenience. These items feature heavily in many of my recipes, so it’s a great place to start.

Avocado Oil (Great for sauteeing at high heat)

Avocado Oil Mayo

Apple Cider Vinegar (great for dressings, marinades and very good for your health)

Braggs Liquid Aminos (soy sauce substitute, also a great flavor for marinades)

Coconut Aminos (Perfect alternative to soy sauce and great for Asian cooking)

Ghee (butter alternative, also amazing flavor)

Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil (It’s best to buy this local, I get mine from Olive Oil Taproom, but linked here is a great alternative)

White balsamic vinegar

San Marzano tomatoes

Maple Syrup (great for dressings and marinades)

Black Forbidden Rice

Wild Rice Blend

Masala Spice Blend (I like to get my spices from Penzey’s, both in-store and online, but this is another great option)

Adobo Seasoning
