Featured Product

Our Grade A Very Dark Maple Syrup is sourced 100% from small family farms in southwestern Wisconsin. A variety of species of hardwood trees, including our maple trees, grow on the steep hillsides of the Ocooch Mountains that surround the beautiful Kickapoo River Valley. These natural forests in Wisconsin are a healthy mix of many species of trees, unlike huge commercial maple plantations that are often planted in former wheat fields. Great care is taken in harvesting the sap to make the Maple Syrup, ensuring that the health of the tree is not compromised. Our syrup comes from farms that practice sustainable agriculture and that are committed to the following:

No pesticides or chemicals were used to manage this forest. Our farmers do not use any chemical pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers to manage their forests. Our syrup is also tested for the presence of glyphosate, the most common herbicide in the US, as an added assurance.

A healthy forest. Our farmers limit the number of taps they use in their forests to help sustain the health of the trees. There are no standards in place to limit the number of taps they may have, but the farms have imposed limits on themselves because it is what is best for the trees in the long run.

Blueberry, Coconut Cream “Ice Cream” Sandwiches

Servings: About 8
Preparation Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 3 eggs, (large)
• sweetener of choice, to taste
• dash of vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup of heavy cream or coconut cream
• 5 tablespoons coconut flour
• 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1/8 cup–1/4 cup milk of choice (if your dough is too dry)
• 13–15 ounces coconut cream or full fat coconut milk, refrigerated overnight

Directions:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, sweetener, vanilla, and cream until well mixed. Sift the coconut flour into the egg mixture and mix until smooth.

Wait for a few minutes until thick. Add the blueberries and milk if needed. Drop 1 tablespoon-sized cookies onto cookie sheet. (You can make them bigger if you would like!) Flatten into cookies.

Bake until golden with golden brown edges or until you think they are ready. It took mine about 20 minutes. Let cool enough to handle, and then transfer to fridge to get firm and cool.

Using a mixer, beat coconut cream or coconut milk until fluffy and stiff peaks start to form. Chill until firm enough to be sandwiched in cookies. Sandwich 1 tablespoon of filling between 2 cookies. Put in freezer overnight or until you think they are ready to eat.

*For the freshest coconut milk, make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)
