Vegan Gluten-Free 7 Layer Bars
In fulfillment of my ONE new year’s resolution, I’m finally posting my recipe for Vegan Gluten-Free 7 Layer Bars. I’ve intended to bring these toothsome delights to you for TWO successive Januaries now, and missed the mark each time. Forgive me. We’re going to fix that today. Continue reading…
Gluten-Free Coconut Lemon Bars
Well, hello there! Just in time for cookie season, I have Gluten-Free Coconut Lemon Bars for you today. In a quick audit of my favorite cookies (seven layer bars, crumble bars, brownies, and these beauties), a pattern comes to mind. Specifically, a grid. Because who doesn’t love bars? Continue reading…
Gluten-Free Plum Cake
Hello, autumn! Today’s feature is a gluten-free plum cake, a lesser-known but nonetheless quintessential harbinger of fall.
Maybe you’ve heard of Marian Burros’ famous plum torte via the New York Times. A longstanding tradition, the recipe has appeared in the Times every September since 1983, and no one is tired of it yet. After a month of baking plum pies at work, I’m just now getting around to experimenting with the last of the stone fruit at home. If I baked one thing with plums this year, I reasoned, a simple gluten-free plum cake would be the best use of my time. Continue reading…
Village Salad
August! Where to begin with all this produce? Nightshades (tomatoes, eggplant, peppers) are here in abundance, zucchini and cucumber and green beans are still going strong, and sorry, kale is going to be around forever. And the fruit! Peaches, plums, blueberries and blackberries? Honestly, it’s overwhelming.
Good thing there is salad. And not just any salad, mind you. My favorite salad from the Yemeni restaurant next door: the Village Salad. Read on for the recipe!
Back from our latest summer adventure, this time with blueberry biscuits! I meant to post these before we left, but of course work and sloth intervened and here we are. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But with blueberry biscuits, aka scooones, just in time to catch those little globes of delight in season.
I love a good salad. This cherry, quinoa and beet salad pushes all the right buttons for me: sweet (cherries), salty (feta), tangy (lemon dressing), hearty (quinoa), and crunchy (hazelnuts), with a peppery bite from the arugula. Continue reading…
“Oops,” my mom texted me, “I had a garden malfunction…” Those six butternut squash plants? They were actually zucchini. On top of the six zucchini plants she’d already bought. Oooof.
If you find yourself in a similar pickle this summer, you’ll need a gluten free zucchini bread recipe in your back pocket for when shit hits the fan. Read on for a zucchini recipe roundup and some exciting updates after the jump!
Boston Cooler Pops
Happy Popsicle Week 2016, bebes! I’m posting today as part of a collaboration hosted by Billy of Wit & Vinegar to bring you a wide assortment of frosty treats on a stick. Check out all the other recipes here!
My contribution to this fresh and fabulous gathering is the Boston Cooler pop. Sounds good, but…what is it? Don’t worry, I’ll explain.
First, let’s talk ginger ale. Continue reading…
{Vegan} Chia Banoffee Pudding Parfaits
Oh dear, bikini season.
It always comes as a bit of a shock, because for the most part I’m pretty covered up. (Modest is the hottest?) Reason being, sweaters are awesome and I am so, so tired of conversations about whether I play volleyball or tennis (Answer: Stop imagining me in tiny shorts, creep).
I’m also somehow without a full-length mirror (more tall girl problems), so really, the only time I get a good look at myself is the odd photo. Perhaps we all romanticize our physiques, but the sight of your pale, droopy self looking back at you from a vacation shot is always a rude awakening. Eek. And then it’s salad time, yoga time, hold in your stomach time, break out the bronzer time, and stand up straight time. Continue reading…
Hey, stranger! After an extended break from baking, I’m back, blogging straight to your device from beautiful(?) Detroit. To make up for the long absence, there are gluten free brownies with cocoa powder. We cool?
Let’s catch up.
