Frontier Co-op: Ethically Sourced Spices Available at Vitacost
Frontier Co-Op Certified Organic Whole Lavender Flowers Description
The fresh, sweet aroma of Frontier Co-op® Organic Whole Lavender Flowers has relaxing and uplifting qualities that leave users with a sense of calm and balance, making it one of today's most popular scents. Lavender is a gentle, multi-purpose herb.
This product is certified organic, kosher, and non-irradiated. There are no artificial additives or chemicals used at any stage of growing, harvesting and manufacturing.
Due to higher-than-normal temperatures, there has been a strain on the global supply of lavender (Lavendula angustifolia), resulting in shortages in supply. Consequently, there has been an increase in the availability of hybrid and alternative-type flowers, misnaming and adulteration of lavender on the market. After evaluating and rejecting over fifty samples, Frontier has secured organc lavender (Lavendula angustifolia) from Bulgaria. This Bulgarian lavender (Lavendula angustifolia) meets our quality requirements with the exception of color. This supply of lavender (Lavendula angustifolia) was harvested late in the season which has resulted in less-than-optimal color. However, we're working closely with our grower to ensure the next harvest is completed at the optimal time.
Directions
To make tea, pour one cup of hot water over 1 teaspoon of organic lavender flowers and steep 3 to 5 minutes.
Suggested Uses: Use in herbal sachets, candles, facial steams, baths, and in DIY creams, lotions, shampoos, body powders, salves and body mists.

Gluten-Free Lemon-Lavender Donuts (Vegan)
Lemon-Lavender Sugar
- 1/2 cup Wholesome Organic Turbinado Sugar
- 2 tsp. Frontier Co-op Organic Dried Lavender
- 3 tsp. lemon zest
Donuts
- 2 cups King Arthur Baking Company Gluten-Free Measure-for-Measure Flour
- 1 Tbsp. Bob's Red Mill Baking Powder
- 1/2 cup lemon-lavender sugar (from above)
- 1 cup Native Forest Organic Coconut Milk
- 1/3 cup Wildly Organic Refined Coconut Oil (melted)
- 1/4 cup Butternut Mountain Farm Maple Syrup
- 1 tsp. Frontier Co-op Vanilla Extract
Lemon Icing
- 2 cups Woodstock Organic Powdered Sugar
- 3 tsp. lemon zest
- 2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp. Native Forest Organic Coconut Milk
- For lemon-lavender sugar, in food processor, add sugar, lemon zest and dried lavender and pulse until mixture is well combined. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease 12-welled donut pan.
- In large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and lemon-lavender sugar.
- Add coconut milk, melted coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined and smooth. (Note: Batter should have a thick, pancake-like consistency.)
- Fill each donut well about ¾ full with batter.
- Bake 15 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and let donuts cool slightly before transferring them to cooling rack.
- For icing, in medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and coconut milk until smooth glaze forms.
- To glaze donuts, dip the cooled donuts into the lemon icing, allowing any excess to drip off. Place them back on the cooling rack and let the icing set until firm.
These donuts are best enjoyed fresh. They can be stored in an airtight container for a few days, but for best texture, store them without icing and glaze them just before serving.
