Diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, I found that the SCD helped me to heal when nothing else worked.
For more information on the SCD, check out Elaine Gottschall’s book, “Breaking the Vicious Cycle.” It’s an invaluable resource for anyone looking to explore the benefits of this diet.

How Do You Make Cashew Flour?
If you want to make your own cashew flour for this cashew bread recipe or for other gluten-free recipes, you can start with 2 cups of raw cashews.
Put them in a food processor and process until they reach a flour-like consistency. You will have some bigger chunks that may not grind down, if that is the case use a fine-mesh sieve to filter them out.
Remove the flour that has reached the proper consistency, transfer it to another container, and then add the bigger chunks back to the food processor.
Process them until they reach the desired consistency and can pass through the fine-mesh sieve.
For best results, store your homemade cashew flour in an air-tight container in the freezer until ready to use in your next grain-free recipe such as cashew flour bread.
How Do You Make Cashew Butter?
To make your own cashew butter you will need to start with about 2 cups raw cashews and 1-2 teaspoons of coconut oil.
Place cashews on a baking sheet and toast in an oven preheated to 325ºF for about 10-12 minutes.
Allow the cashews to cool and then put them in a food processor.
Run on high speed for about 10 minutes until they begin to cream then add in the coconut oil. Run for another 5-7 minutes.
Be sure to store the cashew butter in an airtight container or use it right away and make cashew nut bread.

Thanks for stopping by Roma but unfortunately that isn't going to work. The cashew butter is an essential part of this recipe although you may be able to try another nut butter with similar results. I would love to hear your feedback if you give it a try.

Intersting flavor compared to regular bread -- it actually makes the sandwich better -- and great, moist texture. Also super easy. Planning on making this every week. Thank you so much for this recipe.
