Contest Closed 1/5/10
Today I have a simple and delicious gluten-free, sugar-free recipe to share with you along with a new book that I just adore. It’s one of those books I can actually cook from without having to make any changes at all.
And I’m giving you a copy, too.
It’s The Spunky Coconut Grain-Free Baked Goods and Desserts: Gluten Free, Casein Free, and Often Egg Free by Kelly Brozyna, who authors the popular blog The Spunky Coconut and also wrote The Spunky Coconut Cookbook: Gluten Free, Casein Free, Sugar Free
.
Kelly’s New Book
Kelly shares my passion for healthier food and uses ingredients that add nutritional value to desserts and baked goods. Yes, her cooking style is a little different than mine but I think she’d agree our general goal of eating well is the same. Kelly is grain-free, casein-free (which means she’s dairy-free, too), often egg-free, and uses no refined sugar. Though I can tolerate grains, dairy, and eggs, I love every recipe of hers I’ve tried.
I’ve got many more recipes from Kelly’s new book on my ‘to-make’ list, including:
- Divine Vegan Fudge Cake
- Best Ever Brownies with Mint Frosting
- Buckwheat Soda Bread (This bean-based recipe is sheer genius!)
- Foothills Bagels
Try her healthier Coffee Cake recipe – you’ll love every last bite. Joe and I did – and Joe doesn’t even like coconut.
This recipe is reprinted from The Spunky Coconut Grain-Free Baked Goods & Desserts by Kelly V. Brozyna with permission from the author.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked white beans, room temperature,
- 6 eggs
- 3/4 teaspoon Vanilla Creme liquid stevia (do not measure over the batter, just in case it spills out)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, liquefied
- 1/3 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3 cups of walnuts
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, liquefied
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions
- In a food processor, puree the beans, eggs, liquid stevia, vanilla extract and honey.
- Add the coconut oil, coconut flour, sea salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Puree well. Pour into a large (9 x 13) greased pan.
- In a food processor, puree the walnuts, coconut oil, coconut sugar, and cinnamon. Spread the crumble topping over the cake batter. Using a fork or knife, really swirl the topping into the batter.
- Then pat the topping down.
- Bake at 325 degrees for about 25 minutes.
- Great hot or cold from the refrigerator. Store in the refrigerator after the first day.
Notes
Amy’s Notes: I made the crumble topping first and set it aside so I could top the coffee cake as soon as the batter was ready. I don’t see why one couldn’t scrape the food processor bowl really well and just throw the crumble topping into the food processor without washing the bowl as the topping is swirled in. My cake took about 35 minutes to bake.

Oh how I love all things with streusal or crumb topping! I’ve never tried baking with beans, though I’ve been itching to try out some black bean brownies. I thought beans would result in a fairly dense baked good, which would be good for fudgy brownies, but this cake looks quite fluffy!

Amy,
You have converted me from using erythritol to palm sugar now and I won’t use anything else! Thank you for opening my eyes.
I follow Kelly’s blog. I actually tried out her braided rosemary and garlic bread two nights ago, and hubby loved it. For some reason the dough was a little too thin to braid, so I made dinner rolls from it. The next recipe I’ll be making from Kelly will be her vanilla bean cake. I’m going to make this for my birthday next week.
I would absolutely love to win her cookbook! Thanks again for all the great recipes and giveaways opportunities.

I do already subscribe to you and Spunky Coconut. The recipe sounds very good, but I was wondering if it would be a wee bit better to soak the beans first overnight in an acidic water medium, then cook and use them.

These look really interesting! I’m slowly getting on the “I’m trying to get everything to be healthier” wagon. Whenever I bake something, I usually try to add less sugar and fat that the recipe calls for and use a lower portion of starch.

I LOVE her first cookbook… Ther Spunky Coconut and I have never tried a recipe from her website that I have not loved. In fact, for breakfast my 9 year old made Vanilla Toffee cake from her cookbook for breakfast. It was DELICIOUS and so healthy. We have made this coffe cake several times and my son asks me to make it weekly. It is a great recipe. All of her recipes are so healthy too. LOVE spunky coconut!!
