December 4, 2018 By Tessa Leave a Comment

A combination of cocoa, almond flour, vanilla, and molasses make these Chewy Chocolate Molasses Cookies soft and delicious. An easy gluten-free, vegan cookie!

I am participating in the 2018 Cookie Campaign with Rodelle as part of their Brand Ambassador program. As always, all opinions expressed are my own.

Oh, how I love holiday cookies. I put them in the same “happiness factor” category that Christmas lights seem to bring me.

While the sparkling and twinkling of holiday lights bring small joys, these sparkly chewy chocolate molasses cookies are doing quite the same….

A healthier, moist, Gluten-Free Cranberry Orange Bread with an orange glaze made with almond and oat flours. Vegan. Have it for breakfast or dessert!

After coming off a week of some much needed downtime and family time (first Thanksgiving with my sister in 10 years!), the holiday baking bug has caught me.

I’m usually slower to embrace the holiday rush, but not this year. This might be due to the fact that we had a Thanksgiving weekend blizzard. And so with the snow, bring on the holiday cookies, breads, appetizers, and cocktails!…

This Gluten-Free Apple Tart with an Oatmeal Cookie Crust is an easy dessert recipe made with an oatmeal crust, a layer of date caramel, and topped with cinnamon apples. Prepare the crust and date caramel ahead of time for easier assembly.

The last few months have been a bit of a blur for me. Things have felt non-stop (in a good way). With Thanksgiving break in sight, I’m looking forward to the change in schedule and keeping things simple.

And while I love all that Thanksgiving meals entail, easy and no-fuss is what this year’s celebration needs most….

Gluten-Free Maple Walnut Blondies (Vegan)

November 8, 2018 By Tessa 2 Comments

Gluten-Free Maple Walnut Blondies made with almond flour, sweet rice flour, almond butter, walnuts, and infused with maple syrup. A delicious flavor combination that makes for a chewy vegan blondie recipe.

I love when I develop a recipe that reminds me of something I grew up having.

In addition to nostalgia, that also often means that something had gluten as well. …

Gluten-Free Apple Crumb Muffins (Vegan)

November 1, 2018 By Tessa 2 Comments

Gluten-Free Apple Crumb Muffins are made with whole grain gluten-free oat flour, almond flour, applesauce, and coconut sugar topped with a cinnamon sugar crumble. Dairy-free, vegan.

If I had to pick a muffin season—because surely that is a thing—it would be fall. Prior to my days living a gluten-free, dairy-free diet, I used to make pumpkin muffins loaded with cream cheese, white sugar, and streusel for our annual NYC Marathon-watching party.

Those kind of muffins are far behind me now. I’ve found that with combining certain wholesome ingredients, you can still have flavorful muffins with nutritional value and leave the gluten behind. …
