I love eating organic crackers but I’ve found them to be costly to buy for a relatively small portion.

Ancient Grain Zucchini-Chocolate Chip Muffins

These delicious muffins are moist due to the zucchini, springy due to the spelt, low in glycemic index value due to the date sugar, and pretty healthy due to all three. Add chopped nuts for added health value. You may substitute your sweetener of choice, omit the chocolate chips, peel the zucchini – feel free to make the recipe your own. For those with little ones who are picky eaters and/or are particular about the texture of food, puree the zucchini rather than shred it. Any way you go about it, you will end up with a mouth watering treat you can feel good about.

Heirloom Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies

With its use of lower glycemic date sugar and brown rice syrup, this is a healthier version of the all­time favorite American cookie. They give a satisfying sweetness without spiking your blood sugar levels through the roof. We also used freshly ground red fife heritage wheat in place of modern red wheat, which adds a nutty sweet flavor and warm toasty color. Try it. Hide the recipe, and no one will know they’re eating cookies that likely won’t contribute to their early demise. In fact, they just might make you smile. Use organic ingredients where possible.

Based on a recipe from PBS’s “Christina Cooks”.

Organic Heritage Grain Banana Bread

We love to eat bananas at our house, but don’t always get to them before they brown. We don’t let any go to waste, though – as soon as they’re deemed too dark to eat, we toss them in the freezer, still in their peel, for future banana bread. The darker the better when it comes to bananas for this bread. Put 4-5 frozen bananas in a bowl in the refrigerator to thaw overnight, or if making banana bread the same day thaw them in their peels in a bowl of warm water. Once thawed, simply cut or tear open one end of the banana peel and the deliciously ripened banana will just slide out and into your bowl for easy mashing.

Heritage Wheat Strawberry Shortcake

Chunky Chocolate Cookies with Heirloom Wheat

Use this recipe for a healthier approach to a Chunky Chocolate Cookie. Red Fife heirloom wheat adds a nutty flavor and rich color. Being a whole grain, it contains the bran and wheat germ for increased nutrition and healthy fiber. We recommend using date sugar for less of a glycemic spike. The point is, you can happily enjoy these cookies with less guilt!
