Wild Berry Cobbler {Dairy, Gluten & Sugar Free}

Wild Berry Cobbler {Dairy, Gluten & Sugar Free}

This recipe is a simple easy one to make one evening to enjoy the next day. 

Start by melting your frozen berries with some honey and tapioca starch to thicken the mixture.

I personally enjoy a mixed berry blend with some dark cherries. 

Then combine all the topping ingredients together in a bowl. 

 

Feel free to add oats or hemp seeds for some more texture. 

Then once your berry mixture is to your desired consistency, pour it into a cake pan. 

 

Note: It will not thicken much more than this when you place it in the oven. 

 

Then add the topping mixture on top and spread it out as evenly as possible. It won’t look super pretty, but it will taste very good! 

 

Bake in the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown. 

 

This recipe will serve about 6 people. 

 

Top with some Dairy Free Whip Cream and ENJOY!

Mini Cinnamon Buns {Review}

Mini Cinnamon Buns {Review}

This recipe is originally from Heal Me Delicious

I really love how this recipe was created – it’s super simple, very afforable to make and tastes delicious! 

To begin the first thing you have to do is cook your sweet potato.

Once this is complete I found after many attempts that whipping it in my Kitchen Aid mixer made it the easiest to work with and form a dough. 

You will want to wait until the mashed/whipped sweet potato has cooled significally before you try to roll all the Cinnamon Buns together.

Next add in the Cassava Flour and Sea Salt and mix again. I use my kitchen aid mixer for this as well and it forms the perfect ball of dough.

Next is the filling!

 

Melt your coconut oil over medium heat on the stove or use the microwave. Then mix in the remaining ingredients.

You can add some more coconut sugar if it’s not quite a sandy paste.

 

Rolling the dough is simple when you use parchment paper! I actually typically do this for all my recipes, because when you are not using regular flour and sugar dough is often stickier. 

 

Roll between two pieces of parchment paper until it’s about 1-2 cm thick. Don’t worry if it’s not a perfect shape, your cinnamon buns won’t be either! 

 

Then add the filling on top. Spread it around until it is even. Don’t go too close to the edges or it will pour out!

 

Next cut the strips to your desired size. The original recipe includes some extra steps and makes full-sized Cinnamon Buns. I personally have tried both ways and LOVE making them mini and bite sized for on the go snacks. 

Take your time now, sit down and put some tunes on as you roll each individual bun! 

You’ll see in the images mine are all about an inch wide and 2-3 inches long. 

 

Next it’s time to bake them for 30-35 minutes. I personally like them a little extra cripsy on the edges and soft inside. 

You will find the perfect time length for your tastebuds and oven! 

Then enjoy!

Orange Spice Cookies {Nut, Gluten & Dairy Free}

Orange Spice Cookies {Nut, Gluten & Dairy Free}

This recipe came after I was asked if there was a gluten free cookie recipe that I enjoyed without nuts! Yes some people can be allergic to nuts and gluten sensitive – if that’s you, then this is a MUST READ! 

The flour used in this recipe is Cassava Flour – which is from a root vegtable. 

If you prefer to have a plain more sugar cookie version of this recipe you can do that by:

 

1) Removing the spices and orange rind

2) Adding in more sugar from 1/3 cup to 1/2 cup

3) Pick your flavouring almond or vanilla and enjoy! 

Once you have your cookies all mixed the way you’d like – place them on a tray in single tablespoon measurements and bake them in the oven!

NOTE: These cookies are very crumbly due to the type of flour you use, they taste amazing, but they are not the kind you can split in half and share!

The BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies {Gluten & Dairy Free}

The BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies {Gluten & Dairy Free}

The recipe you’re about to read is one of my best kept secrets that I feel the world should share, because everyone needs Chocolate Chip Chookies that not only taste like the real thing, but are easy to make and don’t come with regular cookie consequences.

When I was creating this recipe I went through a million paleo recipe ideas and ways that chocolate chip cookies can be made without dairy, sugar or wheat. 

 

However, I found none of them to be soft chewy chocolate chip cookies that you’d get from a local bakery – until I created this recipe! 

 

This recipe is also made without egg – not because I am vegan – but because then the cookie dough is safe to consume! 

 

Alright so let’s begin! 

There are three types of flour you can use:

1. Almond Flour (this one you’ll need either way)

2. Coconut Flour – if you’re on a budget

3. Cassava Flour – if you want softer cookies

 

Next is the chocolate chips, these can be difficult to pick as pretty much all of them will have sugar inside.

 

If you’re feeling lost on what to choose, go read THIS BLOG POST

Once you have all your ingredients I do recommend mixing all the flours together first and then you can add in all the ‘wet’ ingredients. 

As for flavouring vanilla or almond extract both taste amazing! It’s up to you which to choose. 

 

One of the things that is going to surprise you the most about this recipe…

 

Adding water!

 

I know it may sound weird but it sure does work, every single time!

 

Trust me on this one and just give it a shot.

 

Once everything is mixed, I like like scoop them out using a tablespoon measurer, so that they are all a similar size.

Note: They do not expand like crazy, how you leave them on the tray is how they’ll bake. So if you want softer cookies don’t flatten them and if you like crunchier cookies, make sure the squish them down a little bit. 

 

Now that you’re cookies are on the cookie tray – all I want to say is good luck not testing the dough! It tastes amazing, but so do the cookies. 

These cookies I have frozen before, many times and they will remain just as good. Don’t leave them in the freezer too long though!

Let me know what you think of my favourite recipe of all time.

Ready to create some homemade chocolate that you can customize anyway you want?!

First we will start by melting your coconut oil over low heat.

Then flavouring! My ultimate favourite is sea salt dark chocolate but you could also add:

  • Peppermint
  • Nuts
  • Rum
  • Orange rind
  • Of anything else you’d like!

Next use a silicone tray for the chocolate molds.
