This is Day 15 of my Daniel Fast. I made these to snack on for my third week. These are a tasty treat !!!! My husband even likes these - he actually ate most of them !!!!
Ingredients:
apples, sliced (about 1/4" thick slices) 1/2 cup water 1/4 cup lemon juice ground cinnamon Directions: Mix the water and lemon juice in a bowl. Place the apple slices in the bowl and let soak for 3-5 minutes. Put the sliced apple on the mesh sheets on dehydrator trays, in a single layer and so the slices do not overlap. Sprinkle the slices with the cinnamon. If your dehydrator has a temperature control, set it to 135 degrees. The average drying time is 5-10 hours. The drying time is affected by the thickness of the slices, the humidity, the moisture content, how much is being dried. So you will need to check every once in a while and see how they are drying. I have a Nesco-American Harvest Gardenmaster Dehydrator which I ABSOLUTELY LOVE. Part of the Daniel Fast is praising God.....SO......
Praise God for he is: omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, owner, order, Omega
God decided to let his people know this rich and glorious secret which he has for all people. This secret is Christ himself, who is in you. He is our only hope for glory. Colossians 1:27 (NCV)
This is Day 14 of my Daniel Fast. One more week to go !!! This makes a great breakfast or lunch or snack. This is REALLY thick....I ate it with a spoon !!! If you want it thinner, reduce the peanut butter to 2 Tbsp (or reduce the cocoa powder to 1 Tbsp or add more liquid).
Ingredients:
2 bananas, sliced 2 Tbsp Hershey's Unsweetened Cocoa Powder 1/4 cup peanut butter (no sugar) 1/4 cup water Directions: Put bananas, cocoa powder, peanut butter and water in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to add more liquid if you do not have a high-powered mixer. My favorite food processor is theKitchenAid 7-Cup Food Processor. For blenders, I use both the Vitamix Blender and Ninja Master Prep Professional Blender Part of the Daniel Fast is praising God.....SO......
Praise God for he is: near, Nazarene, now The Son is the image of the invisible God, the one who is first over all creation. Colossians 1:15 (CEB)
This is Day 12 of my Daniel Fast. As with all Daniel Fast muffins, since you can not use any leavening agents (baking powder or baking soda), they do not rise like "regular" muffins - resulting in a denser muffin.
1 tsp ground cinnamon 1/2 tsp cardamom -------- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce 2 medium to large very ripe bananas, mashed 1/3 cup date syrup 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 and 1/3 cup fresh blueberries Directions: Mix applesauce, mashed bananas, date syrup, vanilla extract and blueberries in one bowl. Mix the dry ingredients in another bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Pour into muffin pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. I like using the silicone bakeware for my muffins. The muffins come out so easily and I don't need to grease the pan. My favorites are: Casabella Silicone Standard Muffin Pan, Casabella Silicone Large Muffin Pan,Casabella Jumbo Muffin Cups. The OXO Large Scoopis GREAT for scooping out batter into the muffin pan. It is MUCH neater than when I used a spoon to scoop the batter into the pan - I no longer get batter all over the muffin pan !!! Part of the Daniel Fast is praising God.....SO......

This is Day 10 of my Daniel Fast. This salad is great for a side dish or for lunch.
Ingredients:
2 cans pinto beans (no added sugar), drained and rinsed 1 can corn (no added sugar), drained 1 can diced tomatoes (no added sugar) 2 stalks celery, chopped (optional) 1 small bell pepper, chopped (I used 1/2 orange and 1/2 red) 1 small onion, chopped 2 Tbsp dried parsley flakes 2 Tbsp dried cilantro flakes 1 Tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp minced jar garlic 1 tsp chili powder 1/4 tsp ground pepper 1/4 to 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper (depending on how spicy you want it)
Directions: Mix everything together in a bowl - serve immediately or after it has been in the fridge. I thought it tasted better after it had been refrigerated first. Part of the Daniel Fast is praising God.....SO......

This is Day 9 of my Daniel Fast. This makes a great breakfast or lunch or snack. This is thick.... I ate it with a spoon !!! Leave out the oats for a thinner smoothie.
Directions: Slice bananas and put in freezer until frozen. I always keep sliced bananas in a container in the freezer so I don't have to wait for the bananas to freeze. Put frozen bananas, oats and blueberries in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. If you do not have a high powered blender, you might want to use half frozen bananas and half "non-frozen" bananas so that it is easier to blend.

This is Day 8 of my Daniel Fast. I made these to snack on for my second week. These are SOOOOOO good, I can't stop eating them !!!! I'm going to end up eating the whole batch in one sitting !!!! My husband even likes these !!!!
Ingredients:
zucchini, sliced (I had 3 small zucchini sliced into 1/4" thick slices) 1/2 cup water 1/4 cup lemon juice 1/2 tsp ground cumin 1/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp pepper
Directions: Mix the water and lemon juice in a bowl. Place the zucchini slices in the bowl and let soak for 3-5 minutes.

Directions: Put everything in a blender and blend until well blended.
Form into balls and store in fridge. Each day these balls tend to get more flavorful. I like these better after they have been in the fridge overnight. I've started using the Farberware Cookie Scoopfor forming the snack balls, instead of using my hands. It is easier and not as messy. My favorite food processor is theKitchenAid 7-Cup Food Processor.

Since my "guinea pig" testers REALLY liked these muffins, I decided to try a Daniel Fast version of them. As with all Daniel Fast muffins, since you can not use baking powder or baking soda, they do not rise like "regular" muffins - resulting in a dense muffin. As usual, I like mine warmed up in the microwave.
Ingredients:
1 cup wheat flour or Spelt Flour 3/4 cup Barley Flour 1 tsp ground cinnamon 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice 1 tsp corn starch -------- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce 2 medium to large very ripe bananas, mashed 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/3 cup date syrup
Topping:
1/2 tsp cinnamon Directions: Mix the applesauce, mashed bananas, vanilla and date syrup in one bowl. Mix the dry ingredients in another bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Pour into muffin pan and sprinkle topping over batter. Swirl the muffin batter with a toothpick. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. I like using the silicone bakeware for my muffins. The muffins come out so easily and I don't need to grease the pan. My favorites are: Casabella Silicone Standard Muffin Pan, Casabella Silicone Large Muffin Pan,Casabella Jumbo Muffin Cups.
