From around 1999-2004 milk was a major part of my diet, some might say that my increased consumption (I'd always been a fan) was a factor in my incredibly high metabolism during that period (for those that are unaware, you may wish to seek out my articles and podcasts discussing my 6000 kcal intake). For those that are fans of the work of rebellious scientist and philosopher Dr Ray Peat, the milk consumption coupled with my jelly sweet consumption, love of coffee and general carbaholic status gives good evidence of the effects of a so called "peatatarian" diet.
Whilst I had an awareness of Ray via my studies of Broda Barnes, I had yet to fully immerse myself in the Fan Girling whirlwind that encircles Ray...although he is totally unaware of his celebrity status. What happened next was a few years of hell that eventually brought me full circle and ensconced me in Ray's work. A place that not only felt comfortable and reassuring, but a place that reaffirmed how close I'd been way back when. It showed me that my time in the whacky paleo/metabolic typing/CHEK world was damaging but the ultimate experiment/lesson.
And so it came to pass that I once again began consuming milk (I gave it up during faileo as I couldn't get raw pasture raised). And with it I returned to my milk powder bake. As ever it was a Ray statement about milk powder pancakes that sparked the memory, so I adapted my recipe to use his ideas, but baked it my old way rather than frying in a pan.
Enjoy
Ingredients
1 cup of milk powder (I use Organic Skimmed)
1/3 cup of Milk (I use Organic Skimmed)
2-3 tablespoons of sugar
1 egg
Directions
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl to a smooth consistency. Pour into a dish that is suitable for the over (I use the glass lid from a casserole dish)
Bake in the oven at 180-200 degrees C for around 15-20 mins, or until golden brown. Around 10 minutes slice a cross to allow the inner part to cook.
Serve with Greek yogurt, cream or Ice Cream
