Coconut!

February 5, 2012 by Joy the Baker 78 Comments

I like coconut quite a lot.

I love coconut.  It’s important to me.

It’s so important that this is the perfect time and place to expound my love in link form.

Real Talk:  I spent the morning in the kitchen with a new coconut recipe that bonkers FAILED.  I’ll get coconut, hazelnut, and chocolate together somehow.  It’s in the future.

Coconut Almond Chocolate Biscuits. ((coconut flakes!))  With cherry jam?  Much success.

Coconut goes major healthy in this Carrot Ginger Coconut Soup  ((coconut milk!)).

Also… I’m one of those people that drizzles olive oil on everything savory.  It’s pretty.

Coconut flour is a gluten-free dream!  These cupcakes are made with coconut flour and fresh strawberries. Topped with cream cheese frosting.  Quit it!

Gluten-free Strawberry Coconut Cupcakes (coconut flour!)).

These hearty gluten-free waffles are topped with big toasted coconut flakes and soft, sweet whipped cream!

Gluten-free Coconut Waffles ((coconut oil, coconut flour, coconut flakes!)).  They don’t taste weird gluten-free.  They do taste all-the-way awesome.

Crazy thing about the coconut in the Crunchy Kale and Coconut Bowl ((coconut flakes!))… dudes will think it tastes like bacon.  I’m serious.  It’s a transformer.  This meal is a drug… a healthy, kale drug.

Coconut and cookies for breakfast!  It’s totally possible.  There’s also millet and carrots.  Get on this cookie bandwagon!

Vegan Carrot Cherry Breakfast Cookies ((coconut oil!)).

    Hi Joy!
    I’ve been feeling culinarically (?) uninspired and somehow googled into you. Yay! I lived in L.A. for eight years & I’m uncertain how our paths never crossed. I don’t know, when two people invest in so much butter & sugar in the same city, it feels wrong… I really enjoy your blog! I have one too but my camera sucks- ha! I’m in Chicago now & am going to do my best to not be working so I can make it to Wilmette for your book tour. I thinks its a bit of a drive but I like making the effort for kindred spirits. You bake with love. I don’t trust that everybody does, joy!! And everybody should!!! And I am so hungry right now.
    Mandi(Crocker)

    P.S. Your kitty is so cute it breaks my heart.
