Barber Shop Chair Biography
Now, back to the foodie story. Once given the challenge of creating a recipe using teff, Michelle promptly hit her test kitchen and came up with two recipes that were kid-friendly and easy. Both were adapted from recipes in her book Clean Eating for Busy Families. The first: oatmeal and cherry breakfast cookies with almonds. For these, she simply replaced the wheat flour with the teff flour and, voila—gluten-free breakfast cookies! (If you really need the gluten-free version, make sure you purchase gluten-free oats.) Michelle liked them even better than the original version. I thought they were great too, if a bit crumbly, which is common a drawback of using a gluten-free flour. Even my two sons, who always turn down oatmeal, gobbled up these cookies.The second recipe was for dark chocolate whole-wheat brownies. Sounds great, but I had my doubts, as I've been burned many times by tasteless "healthy" versions of my favorite treats. For the brownies, Michelle replaced all the flour (her original recipe calls for white and whole wheat) with teff. I replaced only the white flour with teff, because I like to ease into these things. To my great surprise, they were divine! The brownies had a slightly denser texture, which is fine with me because it makes them more fudge-like, rather than cake-like. The teff flour also gave a unique flavor that reminded me of malted milk. The final test: Do the kids like them? Yes! They couldn't get enough of them, and now I'm off to make another batch.
