Baked eggs

These are good to make in advance and reheated when needed over a couple of days

However, I have learnt that you need to use silicon liners in the muffin trays, as they stick and you waste the egg mixture!

I did a mixture here, in some I just baked the egg whole, so it looks like a poached egg, others were a beaten egg mixture, some neat and others into a ham liner.
Any recesses that are empty should have water put in them to stop them burning.

Bake at 180 for 20-30 minutes until the eggs have set.

These egg and ham cups can be eaten as a meal, especially if you add onions and mushrooms to the mixture.

The 'poached' egg can be served with mushrooms, bacon, sausage and other breakfast choices!

Grain free pancakes

These are easy to make, as long as you mix them well and cook them slowly on a low heat.
You can make them in advance and just reheat them for breakfast.

Take half a banana and mash it, add one beaten egg and whisk.
Add 1-2 teaspoons of nut butter (Meridan make almond butter and cashew butter, as an alternative to peanut butter)
Mix well (you need to blend the nut butter into the other ingredients)

Melt butter into a small pan and drop in a teaspoon at a time - you are going to make like scotch pancakes

Cook slowly until they have cooked enough to move away from the base of the pan and turn them gently

When cooked on both sides, move onto a plate, and continue with the mixture 

- it generally makes 5-6 small pancakes

Serve with butter, maple syrup etc

Paleo French Toast

Mix together

1 egg
2 Tbsp flax meal/ground almonds
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 Tbsp raisins (optional)
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp olive or coconut oil
[you can also make this with coconut flour, but use extra 2 Tbsp liquid]

We then pour it into a shallow 'lasagne' dish and microwave for 1 minute - if it isn't set, cook a little longer.

My son makes this with ground almonds without raisins, and tops it with a little maple syrup.
I prefer it with flax meal and topped with butter, which melts in.

It really does smell like French toast (eggy bread)
