B: none
L: broth
S: low carb choc brownie - last one!
D: 'Banting Toad in the Hole', broccoli and green beans. I am not going to post a link with the recipe, because it was AWFUL. Neither Mr B nor I actually ate more than a third of our 'hole' portions. The sausages (Black Farmer) were good, but honestly, that batter was dire. The recipe used a combo of coconut and almond flour, but all we could taste was the coconut. And it was thick and stodgy like a heavy cake. What a waste of good ingredients. And there are leftovers today. O Joy. I think I will probably pick the sausages out and eat them alone!
I would LOVE to find a decent LC batter recipe for Toad in the Hole, but am obviously still searching...
I bought some super sausages last night and really fancy toad in the hole ... did you make the recipe that includes 'protein powder'. I've got a yearning for batter so was researching today. Was about to spend silly amount of money on Almond flour when I stopped and wondered if it's worth it.
Surely there must be a good batter recipe somewhere?? Wonder if @debrasue knows one? I really want toad in the hole!
The recipe I followed was egg, milk (i used water), coconut and almond flours and a few twiddles as seasonings. The coconut dominated and ruined the whole thing. But i have noticed that about coconut flour in other recipes, too.
Ive never tried toad in the hole in low carb version. Definitely something I need to look intoWell, I haven't tried this one yet, but I did find the following recipe for pancakes, which is pretty much the same as batter...
2 eggs
2tbsp coconut oil or butter, melted
2 tbsp coconut milk
Pinch tsp salt
2 tbsp sifted coconut flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
Blend together eggs, oil, coconut milk and salt. Combine coconut flour and baking powder and thoroughly mix into batter. The almond flour might have made @Brunneria's recipe 'cakey', but of course with this recipe you may still get the coconut taste...
Alternatively, I use the following recipe for pancakes, but I'm not sure how it would work as a Toad in the Hole. Maybe you could just try dipping the sausages in it and frying them like a tempura...? Or make pancakes and roll the sausages in them. Or perhaps add a little protein powder to the mix to give it a bit more 'substance'...
3 large eggs
3 tbsp cream cheese (e.g. Philadelphia)
1/4 tsp baking powder
salt
Another alternative would be to ask @ewelina what she recommends - she's the guru, after all!
Good luck - let us know how you get on!
Ok. The one I was thinking of uses coconut milk, Almond flour and tapioca starch. Tempted to give it a try - if I can source the ingredient without breaking the bank ...
