Tips


Before dumping all the ingredients for the sauce into the pan on the heat, very slowly stir in the whole wheat flour with the water. This will insure that no lumps of dough will form in the sauce.


You may want to put a cookie sheet with some aluminum foil or parchment paper under the crumble while it's cooking. The sauces can sometimes bubble over and it is easier to clean off a pan than the oven bottom.


You may want to add a bit more maple syrup when eating instead of ice cream or fresh whipped cream.

 

And... if you're wondering why I go the extra step of grinding my own wheat... Well, it's a story that took two years in the making, but I'll sum it up by saying this: Bread of Life is a real thing... and flour of death is too!


But don't take my word for it! Sue Becker at Bread Beckers is a food biologist, and she did all the research on what happened to our flour... and let me tell ya... it'll blow your mind!


I used her presentation and a few other videos to create the videomentary, "There's Something About This Bread". It's crazy how far we've come from what real Bread of Life is.


Here's a trailer for the video that gives a very small synopsis of why bread is so bad for us today:
