Delicious Grain-Free Recipes
Happy Friday, Friends!🎉
My very first birthday cake, or I should say the very first cake I have memory of, was a beautiful and traditional chocolate frosted 2 layer yellow cake. More than likely, of the Duncan Hines variety. It was so delicious looking, that I smashed my 4 year old hand right though it! …
Happy Sunday! We wanted to go ahead and get this super scrumptious grain-free stuffing recipe out to you in plenty of time for the holidays. It can be a mad rush, so it’s always good to know what you’re working with ahead of time!:)…
Happy Monday, Friends!
I know, that never sounds quite right, does it. Monday does not often bring with it happiness.
Well, how about, Happy 4 Weeks Until Christmas?!…
Happy Saturday, Friends!
Our furry canine friends deserve a sweet Fall treat just like the rest of us, don’t you think? And nothing says Fall like pumpkins, maple syrup and spice! And not to worry, these delicious little biscuits are light on sugar yet full of pumpkin pie flavor. …
Good Afternoon Friends + Happy Friday!
We have something special in store for you today– three delicious versions of our Peanut Butter Dream Cupcakes! These treats are exceptionally scrumptious, so we wanted to accommodate as many dietary restrictions as possible….
Happy Saturday!🎉
We are so obsessed with all things chocolate that sometimes we forget it’s amazing counterpart, vanilla. It has an understated elegance– though not as rich as chocolate, it is deeply aromatic and soothing in flavor. And though they do pair beautifully together, it’s sometimes nice to encounter them individually, appreciating the particular allure and flavor specific to each one….
As a rule, I generally try to steer clear of fried foods. It’s the whole, I love my heart and need it to work, kind of thing. But the churro, my friends, is a definite exception to this rule. It’s a once in a while treat that when made, receives my complete and utter devotion. It’s just too delicious– and absolutely worth the splurge. And as they say, everything in moderation, right??😊…
Happy Wednesday!! We’re half way through the week! We’ve been busy bees working overtime to get this bagel recipe to you sooner rather than later. I know we sometimes move at a turtle’s pace. That being said, I’m just going to get right down to it– this is my new favorite recipe! Before testing, I really had no clue how easy it would be to make bagels. The process is even easier due to the fact that there is no yeast in the recipe–and it doesn’t even need it!…
Everyone loves breadsticks, they’re just yummy, crusty, chewy goodness. Add toppings and a side of marinara for dipping and I guarantee you’ll have a house full of happy people— kids especially, because it’s basically pizza deconstructed– and something you can pick up with your hands!🙌…
I am a cake donut person, always have been. Don’t get me wrong, I used to love light + fluffy, yeasty donuts. (I mean really, what’s not to like??) But for me, it’s the denseness of the cake donut that does it. You get more bang for your buck with the flavor. Add glaze for an icing-sweet exterior, and I am sold!…
When life gives you lemons, make lemon apricot nectar cupcakes!🍋💕
It never would have occurred to me to combine these two beautiful flavors had it not been for my great grandmother’s amazing recipe. The apricot adds a soft elegance and just the right amount of sweetness to the tart lemon. I’ve always loved lemon cakes and bars, but the apricot here really brings with it that special something that can’t quite be explained. The je ne sais quoi, if you will. Needless to say, this was my very favorite cake growing up and I have the fondest memories of it. It was an exciting challenge creating a grain-free version—can’t wait for you to try the recipe!…
Happy Friday!🎉
I’m genuinely excited about today’s recipe–I mean it doesn’t get much better than toasty, chewy English Muffins slathered with butter and jam, right?? Or maybe you prefer a thick layer of vegan cream cheese topped with fresh fruit–or one of our all-time favorites, English Muffin Mini Pizzas! Now those are the very best.
However you slice it (terrible pun intended), you end up with a delicious sweet or savory treat. And a treat you don’t have to feel guilty about because it’s both vegan and grain-free!…
Happy Monday!💜
I know, Mondays are a super drag– but a few Grain-Free Pop Tarts might take the edge off, right?? These delicious pastries are the result of a happy accident of sorts. We overestimated how much dough was needed for our pot pies and ended up with quite a bit left over–I decided it would be best to wrap it up and save it for a rainy day. But as I was storing it in the fridge, a jar of blueberry preserves caught my eye and the image of freshly baked frosted berry Pop Tarts quickly sparkled it’s way into my brain–unicorn dust and all.✨ Needless to say, dough was immediately rolled out, filled and baked. Never have I been happier with leftover scraps of dough!…
Cinco De Mayo is just around the corner! Time for Piña Coladas!😎
This smoothie is loaded with all kinds of goodness–fresh pineapple, banana, lime, honey, and a lovely blend of coconut + almond milks. (And a rum option if you prefer a boozy smoothie)!…
Happy May!🌤
It’s been so warm, sunny and beautiful here in Brooklyn that it feels as though summer has already begun–and we can’t stop dreaming up grain-free summer recipes! It doesn’t have to officially be summer to start breaking out summer treats, right?? Well if it is wrong, then we definitely don’t want to be right–because we couldn’t wait one more minute to post this Summer Berry Pie recipe!💕…
Happy Easter, everyone!!💗
Here is our grain-free & vegan take on the beloved Tagalong cookie—all dressed up and ready for your Easter basket!!…
Happy Birthday!!
It has to be somebody’s birthday, right?? Well, whoever you are, this one’s for you! 😀

PIZZA!🍕🍕🍕
And yes, it’s chewy!! Do I want chewy pizza, you ask?? Yes, you definitely do! I know, I’m clearly a little too excited about this, but it’s been a long time in the making. I’ve been testing grain-free pizza crust for a few years now, but was never quite satisfied with the recipe. I was pleased with the taste, but felt it was missing “chew” to it– you know, that glorious bit of resistance you’re met with when biting into a slice?? That “chew” also lends to the flexibility of the crust–you want to be able to fold it in your hand without fear of breakage. Lack of flexibility was always a source of frustration when I would purchase store bought gluten-free crust. It was delicious, but it did not behave like a true pizza. Good taste is paramount, but look and feel are also greatly important. Admittedly, achieving this in grain-free crust was not easy– this is 3 years in the making, but it was definitely worth the wait. What was once–“this is really good grain-free pizza!” has turned into “this is really great pizza!”–and that is music to my ears. I hope you enjoy the recipe!!…
Happy St Patrick’s Day!🍀 Well almost, anyway. 😉
Gone for us grain-freers are the days of green beers and shamrock shakes. (Although, I might need to rethink that last one!) But never fear, there are surprising possibilities in the land of grain-free….
Happy Wednesday!
I have been meaning to post my grain-free bread crumbs for the longest time now! I’m afraid my crazy sweet tooth often prevents me from focusing on savory recipes, I’m lucky to get one in every two months! Hey, you certainly can’t blame a girl for loving cupcakes. 😉 Thankfully, my attention has returned to savory fare as I was recently asked to create an eggless version of my bread crumb recipe…
I cannot wait for you to try this Vegan Blueberry Coffee Cake recipe, it is seriously out of this world! I guarantee you’ll not want to share ANY of this cake and you may find yourself eating it for dinner! (Don’t worry, I won’t judge);) It is moist and dense, yet light at the same time–I can’t fully explain it, it is the magic that is this cake! And the fantastically thick layer of streusel topping is a delightful contrast in texture and makes it all the more heavenly. …
Happy New Year!! I hope everyone has been enjoying the holidays, I know we have! I wanted to get this little gem out to you ahead of New Year’s Eve just in case you have a vegan/grain-free emergency – Vegan Chocolate Chunk Blondies! I always like to have some grain-free, vegan and paleo alternatives on hand for gatherings to accommodate guests with different diets. It’s never fun to watch everyone else eat while you have the olive in your martini for dinner!…
Happy Monday! Are you ready to talk pie? I know I am, because this is my new favorite. I’m seriously obsessed, I mean look at that filling!!! I just had no idea about the true magic behind the cherry-cranberry union. Not only is it beautiful aesthetically with it’s gorgeous reds, but the flavor combination is glorious. And this pie is deliciously sweet yet tastefully tart and the dash of cinnamon and vanilla put the perfect holiday spin on it. This would make an excellent dessert for your holiday dinner table!…
I know I’ve been on a bit of a pumpkin bender lately, but it IS fall and who can blame me, pumpkin is wonderful in so many things– sweet or savory!
Today we have it for you in the form of deliciously soft + chewy sugar cookies, piled high with the dreamiest vegan frosting. …
