Making sour cream is basically the same process as making yogurt. The only difference is that it’s more difficult to find raw cream, so then pasteurized cream must be previously boiled, while raw cream just need to be heat to 40ºC. Making yogurt from pasteurized milk is the same process as pasteurized cream.
The advantage of sour cream versus plain cream is that fermentation process eliminates lactose, and also, you will get a probiotic product that is rich in lactobacilli, which help the development of a healthy gut flora.

If your kids don’t like vegetables, you can try to hide them in another dishes they prefer or try topping with a home-made sauce (mayonnaise, ketchup, béchamel, tomato, etc).
You can try to find another way of cooking them that taste better for them: baking in the oven, boiling, steaming, grilling, frying, etc. Although steaming is, of course, the healthier way, it’s more important at the beginning to succeed make them eat the vegetable. Some time later, you can try cooking them in more healthier way.
Also, you can try different kinds of textures and presentations: puree, soup, small bits, grated, sticks, etc. Often, vegetable juice is well accepted if mixed with some fruit. You can begin with a juice made of carrot and apple.

The crust for an apple pie is basically the same than for a quiche but adding dates as sweetener, honey or syrups doesn’t allow the crust to be crusty. The recipe of the crust for making cheesecake can be used too for the apple pie.
Then, add the filling with apples and some tolerated sweetener, such as honey. I’ve added also some apple sauce with egg yolks to do a cream that coat the apples.

"Panellets” are the traditional desert in Catalonia on All Saints holiday. They seem like marzipan balls. The usual ingredients of the basic batter are almonds, sugar, eggs and sometimes also potatoes and flour.
Then pine-nuts, coconut, cacao, lemon, etc can be added, depending on different preferences.
I’ve modified the recipe to do them GAPS friendly, so I’ve replaced sugar by honey and avoided adding potatoes and flour.
