Vanilla Blueberry Scone Recipe: gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-freedom

Today is a snow day! In keeping with snow day tradition, I slept in and then made my way to the kitchen for coffee and morning baking. Last snow day, I made pancakes (recipe here). Today, however, I wanted something a little lighter and not as fried. Scones. These blueberry-vanilla scones are every bit as… Continue reading Vanilla Blueberry Scone Recipe: gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-freedom

Happy National Doughnut Day

So today is National Doughnut (Donut?) Day.  Even though I am dairy and gluten free, there is never a time a will say a don't want a doughnut (or pizza, for that matter). Since I'm on summer vacation and had no plans, I thought it would be the perfect day to experiment.  After much perusing… Continue reading Happy National Doughnut Day

(Not Another) Pancake Post

Yesterday, I tweaked my recipe for dairy-gluten-egg-soy free pancakes. I've had trouble with egg-free pancakes.  They taste fine, but it's hard to add nuts and fruit to them, they crumble easily, are held together by coconut oil and a prayer, and have a wet texture, even when fully cooked.  Well... yesterday's tweaking gave me the… Continue reading (Not Another) Pancake Post

Roasted Sweet Potatoes

The sweet potato is an amazing food.  I've developed a new appreciation for it over the past year. (I hear they can even be made into doughnuts!) Anyway, here is my recipe for oven roasted sweet potatoes:   Sweet potatoes are much stouter than their russet potato cousins.  I've found that cutting the sweet potato… Continue reading Roasted Sweet Potatoes

No-mato Spaghetti Sauce

Summer vacation means extra time to try cooking new dishes.  This week's experiment was no-mato sauce for spaghetti squash spaghetti.  I love spaghetti, but tomatoes are not on the friend list.  Just for good measure, I wanted to leave out garlic and onions, because they're a little suspect at the moment.  I can't say much… Continue reading No-mato Spaghetti Sauce

Pancakes II

This recipe is very similar to the other gluten-free, dairy-free recipe I posted here.  However, in an attempt to stick as close to my elimination diet as I can (and still eat pancakes, of course), I've left out the eggs... and added a few more things. So, here is the gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, egg-free version!… Continue reading Pancakes II
