Lexie Croft’s Everyday Classics Cookbook (and a Giveaway)

March 22, 2014 by Cara



It’s a rare thing for me to say that a cookbook inspires me. I know that sounds strange because I surround my life around food and why wouldn’t a cookbook inspire me? But the truth of the matter is there are few that truly speak to my heart. There are even fewer that I have actually woken up next to on my bed (I am known to fall asleep reading cookbooks), of them being:  Sarma Melngailis’ “Living Raw Food,” Kris Carr’s “Crazy Sexy Kitchen”, Karen Tack’s “What’s New Cupcake” and Better Homes and Garden’s Baking cookbook. I’m adding Lexie’s Everyday Classics Cookbook to the list. Yes, it’s THAT good…and I’m giving a copy away! Instructions for entering are below…

To begin with, I have been a HUGE fan of Lexie’s Kitchen for the past two years. What she has stored over there in nothing shy of perfection: a treasure trove of recipes that are consistently inventive, creative, and delicious–all captured by her flawless photography. Though she has pulled away from blogging this year, the archives are still rich with inspiring recipes, perfect for anyone who has any sort of food diagnosis or who just loves good food.

Getting the opportunity to review her cookbook was a meaningful task here at Fork & Beans. If a cookbook can inspire me to get my rear in the kitchen and make the creative juices a’flowin’, well then, that is a job well done. Lexie understands allergen-friendly recipe development in a way that most people don’t, not to mention she makes it look completely effortless. She understands her ingredients; she gets that food should be simple, beautiful, taste good, and mostly that it should be shared with the ones that we love.

Everyday Classics gives you back your kitchen creativity and will remind you that no diagnosis should ever prohibit any of us from enjoying what we once loved. This is exactly the message I promote here on Fork & Beans so it is an utmost honor to share this cookbook with you.

I was so fortunate to be able to review one of the recipes from the cookbook and provide it for you here, my friends. How lucky are we? You better believe that the moment I saw the gluten-free vegan Homemade Tortillas I was all over them.

Gluten-Free Vegan Tortillas from Lexie's Kitchen Everyday Classics Cookbook - Fork & Beans

Gluten-free Vegan Tortillas

  • Author: Lexie Croft, Everyday Classics
Print Recipe
Pin Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/3 cup white chia seed meal
  • 1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp. water, divided
  • 3 Tablespoons palm shortening
  • 3/4 cup Bob’s Red Mill Flour (or gluten-free mix of choice)
  • 1/3 cup sweet rice flour
  • 1/4 cup whole psyllium husk
  • 1/4 heaping teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat a seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cut two 9″ square pieces of parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl whisk the chia seed meal with 1/2 c. of water, set aside for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Using an electric mixer beat in the shortening until creamy.
  4. Add the flour, psyllium, salt and baking powder. Beat to combine (the dough will be lumpy).
  5. Add remainder 2 Tbsp. water and beat 30 seconds.
  6. Push dough together to form a ball. Divide and roll into 8 equal-sized balls.
  7. Place one ball of dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, rough the dough out to 6 inches in diameter (the thinner, the more pliable the tortilla will be). For flatbread, roll to 4 inches in diameter.
  8. Peel parchment paper off of one side. Pace that side onto the heated griddle and gently peel off other piece of parchment paper. (For perfectly round tortillas, trim the edges and use the remainder of the dough for extra tortillas).
  9. For tortillas: Cook for 15-20 seconds on each side (any longer and they will be too crispy to roll).
  10. For flatbread: Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side.
  11. Transfer to a plate and cover with plastic wrap immediately.
  12. Best if enjoyed warm and fresh.
  13. Makes 8-10 6″ tortillas.

What sheer bliss to be able to enjoy gluten-free flour tortillas again and NOT the store-bought kind that snap easily and break your jaw when eating. I am in love and so will you be! If these tortillas don’t convince you enough to buy this book, well then maybe a recipe for Dairy-free Nacho Cheese (that is incredible!) or what about a Flour-less Chocolate cake that has zero eggs in it? I’m telling you, this recipe is utter genius! Still debating?! You should check this out to get more of a sneak peek into Everyday Classics.

    Just wondering how long these will stay pliable? I’d like to make them today for a weekend trip away, hoping to have them on lunch on Sunday (2 days form now) Has anyone tried them after storing for a day or two?

    Would LOVE to win this! My children have many anaphylactic allergies, including egg, wheat, dairy, nuts, and treenuts. And being a single mother back at school, would help the budget! (Tugging on heart strings… lol).

    This looks like a fabulous cookbook, I hadn’t discovered Lexie’s blog either but I’m appreciative of the link! I’m not really intolerant to any foods but I have a few friends who are now gluten-free, I am defintiely going to get them a copy of this wonderful resource. Thanks xx

    Hi Cara! Just found your blog tonight and I’m loving it! I’ve been GF and DF for several years, but recently discovered I don’t do well with eggs (and corn), so I’m in need of GF vegan recipes/cookbooks. I love the food on your blog and your beautiful infographics! Thanks so much! Will definitely try the tortilla/wraps recipe – yum – and would love to own Lexie’s cookbook as well. All the best!

    I also kinda hate those store-bought brown rice tortillas, but up until now I haven’t ever seen a recipe that would work for my multiple food sensitivities! I really can’t wait to try this recipe and would love a copy of her cookbook, as I can’t have gluten, dairy or eggs.

  12. Amy

    March 23, 2014 at 5:46 pm

    I can’t tell you how excited I am to make these vegan/GF tortillas. I’m half Hispanic and tortillas are one the biggest things I’ve missed since giving up gluten. I haven’t found a recipe that does it for me yet, so I can’t wait to give this one a try! I would also LOVE the cookbook so that I can continue to try to expand my horizons in the kitchen!

  13. Kris Kandel

    March 23, 2014 at 5:42 pm

    After suffering for years with various gastric issues I was diagnosed with multiple food sensitivities. I am just now facing the fact that I will have to change the way I eat so that I can thrive. I would love to add this book to my cookbook collection. It will be my first book with recipes that won’t hurt me. Thank you!

      I have the same problem. You will feel so much better with out them. You can find a Neat practitioner who may assistance you too. I am also allergic to chemicals & fragrances. This is life threatening for many of us. Perfume & cologne will put me in bed sick or send me to the hospital. It is good you found Cara.

    I would gift this to my 11 year old vegan. She’s had ribs, chicken, milk and cookies thrown at her, and still stands firm! I admire that determination. Now would like her to have her own book, this one to start cooking!

I can hardly wait for your next ray of sunshine.

    I have been a vegetarian for years and have off/on tried to be committed to a vegan diet. I hate to admit it, but I have gotten lazy and don’t always read labels…and just “go with it” if you know what I mean. But after some diving in to Vegan books, Neal Burnhart from PCRM is favorite…he turned me around. I have been fascinated by your ideas and glad to be back into the kitchen and buying REAL ingredients! I would be thrilled to win your recommendation or buy it on Amazon! Sandie B.

    This cookbook looks wonderful! Cara, I recently had to switch over to gluten-free living after resisting due to severe GI issues after already being dairy (lactose) sensitive. Your recipes are a lifesaver and I trust your recommendations!

    Thanks for all you do!

    I really love your blog, so awesome! Some of the recipes I have tried out have turned out really good ex falafel. I have tried some recipes from the back of gluten free, dairy free stuff which were gross. So glad I was introduced to your blog.
    I would love to have a chance at Everyday Recipes! Gluten free, dairy free, soy free is very appealing. That’s why I love your blog.

    This looks like a great book! I would love to own a copy. I keep collecting recipes on Pinterest but I still like something handheld the best. I’ve been trying to get my family to eat healthier, and I need all the help I can get!

  114. Heather

    March 22, 2014 at 2:38 pm

    This looks great; so tired of GF recipes that are stuffed full of dairy!

    How do I not know about Lexie’s blog and book?! Sounds too good to be true! Great that there are so many vegan recipes as well as gluten free ones.
    I don’t know if this giveaway is open worldwide (I’m in the UK) but if so I’d love the chance to get my hands on a copy of the book.

    I love your blog, your enthusiasm for healthy good food and your recipes. It can be so discouraging to spend forever making something that turns out tasting like cardboard (or worse). Thanks!!!

    Looks awesome! As a senior citizen who has been gluten-free now for almost 6 yrs. – find it a challenging road to put in all the work only to have the recipe not so good. This cookbook sounds interesting and
    doable! Thanks for introducing us to a new cookbook!

    Thanks Clara for the tortilla recipe until now I was unable to find one I liked1

    The tortillas look amazing. Thanks for the chance, Cara!

    Thanks Cara, You’re excitement is infectious.

    I just got a tortilla press. My Dad remembered it was stowed up high on one of the shelves in their garage. So the tortilla recipe is gonna get a try – for sure.
    So love the idea of Lexie’s new book. I could most likely have every single recipe in her cookbook. It’s so hard to find vegan and GF recipes together. Especially baked goods rely on many eggs out there in the GF world.

    Thanks, Sat Nam Kaur

    Lexie’s cookbook would be a wonderful transition from DF and Egg free to DF, EF, SF, and GF. Her recipes sound and LOOK fabulous! It’s sweet of you to host this contest! Good luck to all! 😀
