Riesling Biscuits
Posted on April 30, 2010
A while back, I posted a recipe for Cabernet Cookies, using Cabernet Grape Seed Flour from AprèsVin. I thought they turned out very well –not too sweet, full of antioxidants and rich, dark chocolate; basically, my family was hooked. Recently, I was reviewing the comments for that post and saw this one that Jenné from

The idea for these delicious gluten free Lemon Poppy Seed Bunny Cookies for Easter came from Gluten Free Foodie Heaven and her Lemon Poppy Seed Bunnies recipe.

Carrot Kugel –who would have thought of that? Well, the fabulous Lisa Stafford, that’s who.

This gluten free Double Chocolate Orange Torte will make a nice treat for Passover, which is rapidly approaching!

Chocolate Chip Cookies with Grapeseed Flour
Posted on February 12, 2010
These yummy little protein-a-licious cookies are the result of a complimentary sample of Chardonnay Grapeseed Flour that I received from Eric Leber of AprèsVin. Grapeseed flour? Yes, you heard it right, grapeseed flour. While these treats look like they are double chocolate chip cookies, they actually are not. It is high protein, antioxidant rich grapeseed

Magically Moist Cherry Apricot Cake
Posted on February 9, 2010
My husband loves this simple, moist gluten free Cherry Apricot Cake. I make sure to use organic dried fruit in this dessert since pesticides levels tend to be high in conventional cherries and apricots and more concentrated in dried fruits. I often purchase my organic dried fruit at the local health food store, Vitamin Cottage;

Lemon Lavender Cookies
Posted on January 12, 2010
I think I’m on a bit of a vegan kick these days. First came the Marcona Almond Mayo sans eggs and now these vegan Lemon Lavender Cookies. Don’t worry, even though this recipe sounds a tad weird, it’s subtle and I think, delicious. It kinda reminds me of the recipe in my gluten free cookbook

These cookies were inspired by Dorie Greenspan’s delicious looking Molasses Spice Cookies which I saw in a recent Parade Magazine.

These gluten free muffins taste like cinnamon rolls and make the perfect breakfast treat! One of my favorite readers Courtney recently suggested that I create a gluten free cinnamon roll recipe.

Dark “Rye” Bread
Posted on July 24, 2009

I chose to go with a messy “action” photo of this crumble to demonstrate just how much my husband liked it! He came home from work and devoured the section you see missing above.

Rosemary Fig Crackers
Posted on July 6, 2009
I was reading our local paper yesterday and saw an article on Rosemary Fig Crackers (glutenoid of course) and decided I had to make my own gluten-free version (or g-free, if you prefer). These gluten free crackers are super easy to make and delicious as well. My husband gave me the thumbs up on them.
