Cinnamon Blueberry Bread: gluten, soy, egg, dairy free
One of the hardest gluten-egg-dairy free things for me to bake is bread. My breads with xanthum gum mixes come out ... strange...too stretchy.... can't bake, won't bake... if you've had it happen to you, you know what I mean. Also, I don't like the taste of the xanthum gum free mixes I've tried. After… Continue reading Cinnamon Blueberry Bread: gluten, soy, egg, dairy free
Cinnamon Roll Saturday (with recipe)
Rainy day baking happiness Recipe: https://justwhatweeat.com/cinnamon-rolls-gluten-free-vegan-refined-sugar-free-yeast-free/ Notes: I subbed sorghum flour for millet and used half coconut sugar half unrefined cane sugar (because I ran out of millet flour and coconut sugar). I used almond milk instead of coconut milk for the same reason. Also, use an 8x8, rather than 9x13 pan.

No bake cookie dough bites
My new favorite "indulge" snack comes from The Beaming Baker (click for recipe). 7 ingredients only (I added a bit of salt and a little extra oil) and free of all the things that make my tummy hurt, just enough sweetness, and filling with the knowledge that they are actually healthy! Tips: Add salt to… Continue reading No bake cookie dough bites
Holiday Nog Scones: eggnog scones that are gluten, dairy, egg, soy, and nut free
It's probably no secret that scones are my favorite thing to bake. I still had leftover coconut milk holiday nog and wondered how this recipe might taste with that change. These scones have an overall vanilla taste, with just the right amount of sweetness and hint of cinnamon and nutmeg- perfect for a holiday brunch.… Continue reading Holiday Nog Scones: eggnog scones that are gluten, dairy, egg, soy, and nut free
Post- Christmas Pancakes: Holiday Nog Edition
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I ended up with quite a bit of leftover holiday nog. I love the taste of holiday nog - whether it tastes like eggnog or not, I wouldn't know- but two cartons is a bit much for one person to drink. Naturally my mind turned to baking... and breakfast… Continue reading Post- Christmas Pancakes: Holiday Nog Edition
Grain-free Golden Chicken Tenders
For the summer, I'm really trying to limit my grain consumption, including rice and, tragically, scones. I recently purchased chicken to begin re-introducing them to my diet. Since it's also a day with a free afternoon, I decided to try grain-free fried chicken. This recipe was quick, easy, and oh so good! Clean up is… Continue reading Grain-free Golden Chicken Tenders
Monday Meals: Butternut Squash and Spinach Rice Bowl
This is a spin on last week's Monday Meal (click here for Zucchini Noodles and Rice). They say that necessity is the mother of invention. This is no less true than trying to cook for a road trip because of food intolerances. Happily, shredded butternut squash was on sale at Kroger last week, so I… Continue reading Monday Meals: Butternut Squash and Spinach Rice Bowl
Monday Meal: Zucchini Noodles
1 cup zucchini noodles sautéed in 1tsp. grapeseed oil and 1-2 Tbs tamari sauce (gluten-free soy sauce). Allow noodles to caramelize a bit for extra flavor. (10-15 min) Serve on top of 1/2 cup cooked white rice. Delicious as a side dish or a quick lunch!
