Pear and coconut cake

Baking without rice flour is a bit of a headache, because it was so easy to put rice everywhere. I got set in my ways, and probably overused it, contributing to it falling out of Chipmunk's diet. My creativity seems to be back on track though, this cake came out extremely tasty.

Pear and coconut cake - gluten free, eggless, dairy free, rice free, soy free, nut free 

100 g coconut oil (melted)
140 g sugar
50 g applesauce
100 g coconut milk
2 tsp vanilla sugar
50 g corn flour
100 g tapioca starch
100 g buckwheat flour
1 tsp xanthan gum
0.5 tsp cardamom
0.5 tsp cloves
1 tsp baking soda 

2 ripe pears, peeled and cubed 

Mix the dry ingredients together, add everything else except the pears. Mix together well, then fold in the pears. Bake at 200 C for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out sort of clean. 

Lingonberry and coconut pie

We're no longer using rice.
Food intolerance test told us not to, and I'm inclined to believe it.  Have suspected that rice isn't good for Chipmunk for a while, but I didn't want to believe it, as it was the basis of our diet. However, !#<@ happens and life goes on. Henceforth we shall be rice-free.

This pie came out quite good. It's based on this recipe, which I've modified to contain no gluten, eggs or dairy.

Lingonberry and coconut pie - gluten free, eggless, dairy free, nut free, soy free, rice free

Pie:
160 g margarine
1 dl unsweetened applesauce
1 dl sugar
4 dl flour (equal parts buckwheat, tapioca, potato starch and cornflour)
20 g shredded coconut
3 tsp baking powder
0.5 tsp ground cardamom
pinch of salt
300 g lingonberries (frozen works)

Topping:
50 g melted margarine
80 g shredded coconut
0.5 dl flour (equal parts potato starch and cornflour)
0.5 dl sugar
2 tsp vanilla sugar

For the bottom, melt margarine, add applesauce and baking powder to it and mix well. It will foam. Mix dry ingredients together and add to the applesauce-y foamy mix. If too thick, add some water or non-dairy milk until it's spreadable. Make topping: melt margarine, add rest, crumble. Spread into pie tin, add the lingonberries on top and add the crumb topping. 

Bake at 200 C for about 30 minutes.
