Paleo Almond Butter Cups

This paleo recipe provides a healthy, Paleo-friendly alternative to peanut butter cups (such as Reese’s). These are made with dark chocolate and almond butter butter instead. Peanuts are a legume, and therefore not Paleo, so peanut butter should be avoided. But these treats turn out delicious and are made with whole, real ingredients. They are easy to make but take a bit of patience since each layer needs to be chilled separately.

Ingredients

8 oz. dark chocolate

3/4 cup sunflower seed butter

1/3 cup coconut oil, melted

3 tbsp honey

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Lay out 15 mini cupcake liners on a baking sheet. Melt the chocolate and one tablespoon of coconut oil in a bowl in the microwave. Stir to combine. Pour a spoonful into each cupcake liner, reserving 2-3 tablespoons of the mixture to use later. Add more liners if necessary. Use the spoon to coat the sides of the liners with the chocolate as well. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes to harden.

2. To make the filling, place the almond butter, remaining coconut oil, honey, salt and vanilla into a food processor and blend to combine.

3. Once the bottom layer of chocolate has hardened, place a small dollop of the nut butter filling into the center of each piece. Place back into the freezer for another 30 minutes.

4. Once the middle layer has hardened, spoon the remaining melted chocolate over each piece. If the chocolate has hardened, simply microwave it again for 30 seconds. Place the chocolate pieces in the freezer for 20 minutes to harden. Let them rest at room temperature for 5 minutes before trying to remove the paper liners. Store in the refrigerator and serve cold.

Paleo Zucchini Fritters

Zucchini fritters are a great use for leftover zucchini, and can be served with eggs at breakfast or with a lemony mayo for a side dish. Squeeze as much moisture as possible out of the zucchini prior to cooking so that they can become crispy. Also, closely monitor the fritters while they are in the pan because they can easily burn.

Ingredients

4 large zucchini, grated

1 tsp salt

1 egg, beaten

1/2 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp chili powder

1/4 cup coconut flour

Coconut oil, for cooking

Instructions

1. Place the shredded zucchini in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Toss well and let the zucchini drain for 10 minutes.

2. Squeeze any excess moisture out of the zucchini either with a dish towel or using your hands. Place in a large bowl. Mix in the egg, pepper, cayenne, baking soda, and coconut flour.

3. Melt the coconut oil in a large skillet over low heat. Form about 1/4 cup of the zucchini mixture into a patty and place in the pan. Cook on each side for 4-5 minutes until lightly browned. Repeat with remaining zucchini mixture, adding more coconut oil to the pan for each patty. Place on a wire rack to allow to cool.

Paleo Carrot Cake Cupcakes

In this easy paleo diet recipe, classic carrot cake is transformed into individual cupcakes. Carrots, dates, and crunchy walnuts add an abundance of flavors and textures. Top the fluffy spiced cupcakes with some cinnamon vanilla frosting, the base of which is chilled coconut cream.

Ingredients

3 large carrots

4-5 pitted Medjool dates

3 eggs

1/4 cup honey

2 tbsp coconut oil, melted

1 1/2 cups almond flour

2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1 cup walnuts, finely chopped

For the frosting:

1 14-oz. can coconut milk, chilled

1 tsp honey

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of ground cloves

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with cups. Coarsely chop the carrots and dates and place in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, and coconut oil. Add the carrots and dates and stir well.

2. In a separate bowl, stir together the almond flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and nutmeg. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir to combine. Fold in the chopped walnuts.

3. Divide the batter equally among the muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 of the way full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 5 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

4. To make the frosting, blend together the chilled coconut cream (spooned from the top of the can), honey, cinnamon, vanilla, and ground cloves in a food processor until completely combined. Spread over the cooled cupcakes.

Ingredients

1 cup almond butter

2 tbsp coconut oil, melted

1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp coconut flour

1/2 tsp cloves

Instructions

2. Add in the coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, nutmeg, and cloves. Blend to combine, scraping down the sides with a spatula. Pour the batter into the loaf pan. Bake for 45-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the loaf is set. Place the bread on a cooling rack and allow to slightly cool before slicing, about 15 minutes.

Paleo BLT Bites

In this paleo snack recipe simple ingredients form a delicious and healthy bite-sized treat. The classic combination of bacon, lettuce, and tomatoes make a great appetizer. A little mayonnaise is mixed with crispy bacon and lettuce before being stuffed into sweet cherry tomatoes. Refrigerate before serving.

Ingredients

6 slices bacon

16-20 cherry tomatoes

3 leaves Romaine, finely chopped

1/4 cup Paleo mayonnaise

Instructions

1. Cut a thin slice off the top of each tomato. Scoop out and discard the pulp. Place upside-down on a paper towel to drain for 10 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, place the bacon in a pan and cook until crisp. Set aside on a paper towel-lined plate and crumble into pieces.

3. Place the crumbled bacon into a small bowl with the lettuce and mayonnaise. Stir to combine. Spoon the bacon mixture into the hollowed tomatoes. Refrigerate for one hour before serving.

Paleo Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes

The silky cinnamon cashew filling to these twice-baked sweet potatoes is a perfect addition for any paleo diet meal. More fancy than a regular baked potato, these twice-baked potatoes will help to elevate your dinner to the next level. The creamy filling adds just the right amount of sweetness without using any sugar.

Ingredients

2 large sweet potatoes

1/2 cup cashews, soaked in water for at least 1 hour

1/4 cup almond milk

1/2 tsp vanilla

2 tsp honey

1 tsp cinnamon

Pinch of nutmeg

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

2. Drain the soaked cashews and place in a blender. Blend until finely ground. Add almond milk, vanilla, honey, cinnamon, and nutmeg and process until creamy.

3. Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them down the middle and carefully scoop out the flesh, placing into the blender. Leave a thin layer of sweet potato on the inside of the skin to hold it up. Blend the sweet potato filling with the cashew mixture until completely combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. Carefully add the filling back into the potato skins and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Remove potatoes from oven and top with fresh thyme to serve.

Ingredients

Asparagus with Poached Eggs and Paleo Hollandaise

This paleo breakfast recipe has several steps but is well worth the extra effort. Crispy prosciutto and poached eggs rest on a bed of fresh asparagus, all topped with a rich hollandaise sauce. The flavors combine to form a delicious and savory breakfast.

Ingredients

1 bunch fresh asparagus, ends trimmed

4 pieces prosciutto

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

4 eggs

Salt and pepper, to taste

Hollandaise sauce:

3 egg yolks

3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

2 tbsp hot water

1 tbsp lemon juice

Pinch of salt

Pinch of cayenne

Instructions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add in asparagus and cook 4-5 minutes until tender. Remove from the water and place into an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.

2. Meanwhile, cook the prosciutto in a small skillet until crispy. Set aside.

3. For the hollandaise sauce, whisk the egg yolks in a medium metal bowl. Add in the olive oil, water, lemon juice, salt and cayenne and continue whisking. Place the bowl over a pot of boiling water so that the bottom of the bowl is steamed. Whisk constantly until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.

4. To poach the eggs, fill a large skillet with water. Heat to barely a simmer and add vinegar to water. One at a time, crack the eggs into a small bowl and use the bowl to slowly slide the eggs into the water. Cook for 4 minutes or until the egg whites are set and yolks are still soft. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to a paper towel-lined plate.

5. To serve, divide the asparagus between plates. Place the prosciutto over the asparagus. Top with poached eggs and hollandaise. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

3. Place the onions and garlic into the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add the white wine vinegar and stir.

1/2 apple, peeled and diced

2 pitted Medjool dates

1/2 cup apple juice

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp vanilla extract

For the frosting:

4 oz. dark chocolate

3 tbsp coconut cream

1/2 tsp vanilla

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with 8 cups and spray the insides with coconut oil spray to prevent sticking. Whisk together the coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add in the remaining ingredients and whisk until completely combined.

2. Pour the batter into the muffin cups, dividing equally. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Place the muffin tin on a cooling rack and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Remove the cupcakes from the tin and cool completely before adding the frosting.

3. Melt the chocolate in the microwave, stirring regularly. Add in the coconut cream and vanilla and stir. Let the ganache cool to room temperature before frosting the cupcakes.

Homemade Paleo Peppermint Patties

These homemade peppermint patties will melt in your mouth. Mimicking the taste of the famous York peppermint patties, creamy mint thins are dipped in chocolate and then frozen for a cold, luscious treat. To soak the cashews, simply place them in a bowl and cover them with water. Let soak overnight so that they become soft and can be blended into a creamy consistency.

Ingredients

1/2 cup cashews, soaked overnight

1/3 cup coconut oil, melted

1/4 cup honey

2 tbsp coconut milk

1 tsp peppermint extract

4 oz. dark chocolate

Instructions

1. Drain and rinse the cashews. Place into a blender or food processor along with the coconut oil, honey, almond milk, and peppermint extract. Blend for 2-3 minutes until smooth.

2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay out cupcake liners on the baking sheet. Pour half a tablespoon of filling into each liner. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes to harden.

3. Carefully pop the filling out of the liners and discard the liners. Place the patties back onto the baking sheet and place in the freezer for another 10 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in a bowl in the microwave. Allow to cool slightly. Use a fork to dunk the patties into the chocolate, and then place them back on the baking sheet. If the chocolate is too thick, stir in a teaspoon or two of coconut oil to thin it out. Once all of the patties have been dipped in the chocolate, place the baking sheet back into the freezer for 15 minutes more. Serve cold or store in the freezer.
