Adapted from :recipe at The Homemade Mommy
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Bake Time: 40 minutes
Link to purchase  CHALLAH SILICONE PAN -SMALL 


Ingredients for one small loaf/mold; ( small is enough) 
double recipe  for the large mold but just fill the mold half way

6 large eggs, beaten
1 Tablespoon of raw honey ( or more if you like it sweeter)
1/2 cup coconut oil ( melted) or olive oil
1/2 cup coconut flour + 2 Tablespoons (GF flour mix)
1/4 tsp of sea salt (kosher salt)
1 tsp baking powder ( aluminum free )

Note: The original recipe called for 3/4 cup of coconut flour. I thought it made the batter too thick, so I cut it back to 1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons of coconut flour to make it lighter- but you can choose!


Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl mix the eggs, honey, and oil. In a small bowl mix the coconut flour, sea salt and baking powder and sift. Add the dry ingredients slowly to the wet ingredients while mixing with a fork until smooth and no lumps. Pour into the mold and bake for 35-40 minutes when it feels firm.
Remove immediately from mold and allow to cool on a cookie sheet.

MY NOTES: If you purchase the large mold double the recipe; for ease I suggest the smaller mold . I found the large mold  too big - remember coconut flour is very high in fiber and very filling - you won't eat as much of this bread.. If you do want to purchase the large mold, you can just fill it half way and it worked fine and by buying the large mold , it will give you a choice to make a small or large challah!  Why I don't use commercial only local honey here's why

Homemade Seasonings

I found this on Pinterest. Several things I do miss about being allergy free. So happy they can be duplicated at home Make sure the minced onions are JUST onions. I personally would use kosher salt. Use raw sugar. Instead of sour cream use 0% greek yogurt. 

Homemade Taco Sauce

This is nice and uncomplicated! You know the only thing I'd change is the salt and make it kosher, other than that this recipe is clean. I haven't made it yet but I will the next time I need taco sauce! Homemade things are better!

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

Hough Bakery By  Gail Greenberg   &   Diane Rolfe Hough Bakery was an integral  part of me and my family's lives, (most people in Cleveland for that matter) I was heartbroken when they closed. I have  always remembered the cookies and doughnuts from this magical bakery. Their products were like nothing I had ever had before (and it was extra  magical because I was so little/young) I have been searching for about 30 years for something similar - no luck... but, thank goodness there are a few recipes floating around the internet! Unfortunately  even with Archie's being open, my food afflictions will not allow  me to enjoy those old time favorites. Luckily, converting is what I do and that's what this site is about so I  will switch some things  around and see how it turns out! The recipe below is just ONE of my all time favorites, please enjoy! Memories of a signature blue-and-white, string-tied cake box filled with a streusel coffee cake, hot cross buns, stick
