NOTE: These can be made Candida-Detox safe by using liquid stevia as your sweetener for the bars, as well as the topping. See option below under "Ingredients". They may not stick together QUITE as well as with honey, but they are still delish, filling and energizing! These hold me over and wake my brain up for a few hours! However, it is a LOT of nuts. Most people do not digest nuts perfectly because of the high fat and protein content. If you have Candida overgrowth, then you know your digestive system is STRESSED OUT and weak at the moment. No way around that. You likely need a full spectrum enzyme such a my PROACTAZYME or PROTEASE PLUS if you notice constipation after eating these. Another option is to eat some RAW sauerkraut or drink a little bit of diluted RAW apple cider vinegar to help you digest anytime you feel bloated or constipated. ;)
MAKE YOUR BARS FIRST:
Add all nuts, seeds and almond butter to a food processor and process for approximately 10-20 seconds depending on how chunky or fine you want it. In a small sauce pan, heat coconut oil on low until just melted then add honey (or liquid stevia to taste) and vanilla extract and mix together until well blended. In a large bowl, add the nut mixture and coconut oil/honey mixture together and mix together until well blended. Put the mixture in an 8 x 8 glass baking dish (lined with parchment paper). Then place in the freezer for 15-30 minutes before adding your topping. MAKE YOUR TOPPING: Mix the coconut oil (melted/liquid), cacao and liquid Stevia, to taste, and stir until well combined. PUT IT ALL TOGETHER: Pour the chocolate topping over the chilled bars and VERY QUICKLY spread in a thin layer. Put bars in refrigerator for approximately 15 - 30 minutes to allow the chocolate topping to completely harden. Cut using a large knife or clever to press instead of cutting. Store in the refrigerator or freezer because the coconut oil will become softened at room temperature. If you pack them for a to-go snack... be sure to pack them with an ice pack.

 WARNING: THESE ARE NOT SAFE FOR A CANDIDA DETOX DIET. YOUR BODY MUST BE CLEAR TO EAT DATES/TOLERATE HIGHER SUGAR CONTENT BEFORE INCORPORATING THIS INTO YOUR DIET OR YOU WILL GO BACKWARDS, BOWELS WILL SLOW DOWN, AND YOU COULD LOSE PROGRESS. USE DISCERNMENT OR MAKE SURE I HAVE CLEARED YOU FIRST ...FOR THE AVERAGE PERSON, THESE ARE ALLOWED AT THE 3 OR 4 MONTH MARK :) INGREDIENTS: 10 Medjool dates 2 cups Unsweetened almond butter 2 Eggs 2 tsp Vanilla extract 2 Tbsp Water 2 droppers Liquid Stevia (optional) 1/4 tsp Sea salt 1/2 Tbsp Baking powder 1 cup Stevia sweetened chocolate chips (I buy Lily's brand from Vitacost.com) Add all ingredients (except chocolate chips) to a large food processor in the order listed above. THEN fold in your chocolate chips. Form batter into balls less than 1/4 cup each in size. The dough will be quite greasy because of the almond butter. Place on a baking sheet with parchment paper or reusable silicon baking mats. DO NOT FLATTEN your cookies.
Bake for 9 minutes at 350 degrees. (Oven cooking times may vary– keep an eye on them to ensure your desired doneness – we like them soft in the middle!! num num!) Place cookies on cooling rack. Try not to eat the entire batch!! SELF CONTROL ... fruit of the Spirit! Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness AND SELF CONTROL :) **Ask for a fresh filling of the Holy Spirit BEFORE you bake!! haha  INGREDIENTS: |
Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Add the oil, eggs, honey or stevia, and vanilla to the dry ingredients and stir until the batter is smooth. Using a silicon spatula, gently fold in the blueberries or raspberries just until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter. Divide the batter between the muffin cups.
Bake the muffins on the center rack for 30-35 minutes, rotating the pan after 15 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin should come out clean. Let the muffins stand for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely. Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or freeze for up to three months.
SERVE: "Butter" your muffins with Coconut oil for added flavor, moisture and nutrition!!
NOTE: The more Coconut oil, the stronger your immune system, the happier your hormones, the healthier your skin, the greater your energy and the better protection against disease, free radical & sun damage!! You could also experiment subbing out a fraction of your flour with protein powder such as hemp protein powder or plain egg white protein to make these even MORE of a complete meal.

FROSTING:
1 1/4 cup raw cashews
1/2 cup coconut cream or full-fat coconut milk
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2-3 Tbsp monk fruit
1 tsp vanilla extract
Soak the cashews for a few hours in hot water. Blend all ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Sweeten to taste.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix all wet ingredients (except for carrots) together in electric mixer (or in bowl with whisk if you don’t have one). Next, mix dry ingredients (minus walnuts and raisins) in a separate large bowl. Then add the mixed wet ingredients to the mixed dry ingredients (except for walnuts and raisins). Mix well. Next, gently fold in your peeled and grated carrots, walnuts and raisins (turn mixer to lowest speed). Pour your cake batter into a greased (i use my hands and grease with raw coconut oil) square cake pan (for thicker cake) or into cupcake trays.
Bake for 25-30 minutes but make sure to keep checking on your cake because ovens vary. Cupcakes will cook faster than a whole cake Cake is done when it’s a little golden brown and your toothpick comes out clean. I prefer mine a little moist in the middle.
GARNISH IDEAS: lemon zest strings/crumbs/twists, chopped walnuts, shredded unsweetened coconut shreds, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, or some carrot shreds… to garnish your treats with LOVE
CHEERS to tricking your friends and family into eating healthier! They’ll never know it’s gluten-free… AND dairy-free… AND GMO-free… AND preservative-free…AND IT CAN BE SUGAR-FREE, TOO!!!!!! YIPPY YUM YUM! Be a pioneer and make getting healthy more fun
NOTE: If you’re on the Candida Detox, add your sugar substitutes (xylitol, erythritol, stevia) conservatively and taste your batter at the end. You can always add a bit more if necessary just before you fold in the carrots and walnuts. Since this recipe is made with so much egg and some almond butter, it contains a fair amount of protein to make this a very healthy snack. Add some unsweetened egg white protein to the dry ingredients and now it’s more of a “breakfast”/ small meal replacement!! Nuts add even more protein. Zero guilt! Be creative…pray through it…have fun…it’s good for you.

Enjoy this as a breakfast, snack, pre- or post-workout drink or meal replacement.
1 1/2 cups water or unsweetened almond milk
1 Tbsp raw cacao powder
2 handful mixed leafy greens
2 Tbsp raw coconut or MCT oil
1/2 large avocado
A few spoonfuls of almond butter
1 scoop Nature's Sunshine Collagen Powder
Liquid vanilla stevia, monkfruit, or Swerve, to taste
1 cup ice
Optional: 1 Tbsp Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil (to get some SCT oils in)
Optional: Banana (if Dr. Jana has approved it for YOUR Candida Detox or modified Keto Diet)
Add all ingredients to high-power blender or food processor and serve chilled. This was my life-saver breakfast in the 1st trimester of my pregnancy when I suddenly could NOT stomach eggs anymore. The Cacao gave me energy. The sweet was a nice, cool change that went down easy and held me over for about 3 hours. And I got more than my daily requirement of minerals, good fats and folate in 1 smoothie!

INGREDIENTS:
2 – 2-1/4 cups Finely ground nuts or nut flour (almonds or almond flour work great)
6-7 Tbsp Cold butter or raw coconut oil (expeller pressed if you don’t want coconut flavor)
1/8 to 1/4 cup Xylitol (or stevia – only sweeten to taste, you will need far less stevia than xylitol)
Pinch of Salt
Optional: Cinnamon or other spices to add flavor to your crust/dish
Mix/press all ingredients thoroughly with a spoon in large glass bowl until you have a consistent “dough” (be sure there are no clumps of oil). Wet hands to mold into a ball (add more oil/butter for added moisture OR more ground nuts to dry the dough). Place dough ball into center of greased (EVOO, coconut oil or butter) pie pan, pressing outward to form an even crust. Prick the bottom with a fork a couple of times to allow air to escape. Bake at 325 degrees for about 15 minutes – do not let your crust over-brown. Make your pie or quiche mixture, pour into your crust and bake as necessary. Be sure to cover crust edges with aluminum foil to protect from burning.
This can easily be VEGAN by using coconut oil in place of butter. I am not vegan, but I know some prefer to be.
*NOTE: If you are not on a Candida Cleanse, feel free to use raw agave nectar, coconut nectar, maple syrup, or raw honey to sweeten your crust. They help it stick together a bit better.
**If I ever can’t get things to “stick” properly, I just add a tiny sprinkle (start w like 1-2 pinches for this recipe) of psyllium hulls (or other fiber powder might work if you have it…just beware of flavored ones…may change flavor of crust). Psyllium works as a wonderful thickener or “glue”. Just always add to “cold” mixtures, never hot, and blend quickly.
***If you’re allergic to nuts, you could try this with bean flour or rice flour (garbonzo bean, etc). Bean flour is allowed on the Candida Cleanse.
