Stonewall Streusel Egg Loaf Muffins


The Keto egg loaf sprung from instagram and is now found everywhere.
Everyone is talking about how it is very easy to fix and easy to fix- up! Play with all kinds of additions. Serve as a french toast or muffin as we have done here. Here we honor the 50th anniversary of Stonewall. 
 

You can bake an egg loaf in a square pan, cut as serve with syrup, or top with berries. Use your imagination and create something special!


Ingredients

4 eggs, room temperature
4 ounces no fat cream cheese, room temperature
4 Tbs butter, room temperature
1 tsp cinnamon
2 Tbs non-sugar sweetner (the kind you can use in baking)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup flour
2 Tbs butter, chilled
1 tsp cinnamon
2 Tbs non-sugar sweetner
¼ cup chopped pecans
oil spray

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F


In a mixer, combine eggs, cream cheese, butter, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 2 tablespoons sweetener and the vanilla extract. Blended until well combined and slightly foamy, about one minute.



Grease your muffin cups with spray and pour the egg combo evenly into six muffin cups.
Bake for 10 minutes. While the egg loaf muffins are baking, prepare the streusel.


In a bowl, add the flour, cinnamon, sweetener, butter and pecans. Using your fingertips, combine the ingredients until well mixed but crumbly.



After the egg loaf muffins have baked for 10 minutes, top them with the cinnamon streusel. Bake another 10 minutes.
Remove muffins from oven and let cool for about 6 minutes before trying to remove. They will appear puffy at first, but will sink back down as they cool.

==========================
The Road to Stonewall
As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising I find many have no idea what led up to the riots.
So as a quick background lets review conditions of taverns and bars that broke the laws and catered to homosexuals.
Our example focuses on New York City.

First, the state liquor laws forbade the sales of alcohol to native American Indians and known homosexuals. This would cause the loss of your license. A known homosexual on the premises constituted an unsafe environment and the establishment would be closed. No same-sex dancing was allowed, again a loss of license could be imposed.

If you were sitting at the bar, you could not face another of the same sex. You had to speak to them via the mirror behind the bar. If an officer saw you talking with another, you could be charged with "lewd and lascivious" conduct and be arrested.

Under the state anti-masquerading laws of the 1800s, you had to be wearing at least 3 articles of visible clothing ascribed to your birth gender. Again you could be arrested.

Now when you were arrested your name and home address was published in the newspaper. This most often caused loss of work and housing!

Such rules and laws provided organized crime with golden opportunities for making money. Since you couldn't get a license, you didn't have to follow any rules! Your vending machines and jukeboxes came from other branches of the mafia. Liquor was often hijacked and watered down. You could charge three times the amount normally charged across the street.

At the Stonewall Inn, there was no running water behind the bar. Dirty glasses were swished in a tub of water, dried off, and used again.

The local police also used this to raise money! Kickbacks were commonplace. The owners would be tipped off of a raid on a Wednesday. (fewer weirdos to deal with) After the place was cleared out, money was paid, the bar could then clean up and reopen for the weekend. Police often wanted the bars to make money so they could get more of it. 


This "golden handshake" was tolerated because it allowed LGBT's a place to be, to meet others and to dance!

Yes, they had created a new form of dancing apart from your partner – so the police didn't know who you were dancing with. Still, a few bars would allow you to dance in the arms of another.

Some referred to the LGBTs as "Twilight" people who only came out at night. There were places in the parks where some could gather if they were careful! But these bars offered sanctuary, a place of their own.

Entrapments were set up in the subways and parks.
Gays were hunted down like animals and "Beating up a fag" a sport enjoyed by both citizens and police.

That Friday night 50 years ago at Stonewall changed history. The bar was filled, many drag queens openly crying at the funeral of their beloved Judy Garland that day. Crowds of both rich & poor out to dance and forget their everyday battles. A microcosm of New Yorkers. Before the night was over the mixture of street kids and drag queens, closeted lawyers and bankers, became a "tribe" a people for the first time. They found an identity and flexed their muscle.

The warfare continued for six days! Bars all over the city were trashed, police cars overturned and set on fire. Broken glass and blood lined the streets of our nations largest city. Yet through all of this, a single Associated Press article was released that night and nothing further. As usual, our western culture began quickly to erase LGBT history. That way others across the world would never know. 
 

At least that's what had always happened before, but not now!
