Molasses Spice Cookies
Posted on January 5, 2010
These cookies were inspired by Dorie Greenspan’s delicious looking Molasses Spice Cookies which I saw in a recent Parade Magazine. I read Parade every weekend (it comes in our local paper), and I especially enjoy checking out the recipes in it and then renovating them for my gluten free higher protein desires. Spice cookies are

Cinnamon Bun Muffins
Posted on December 16, 2009
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. She said it would be perfect for Christmas morning. Being smack in the middle of Hanukkah that wasn’t something I had thought about. Thanks Courtney! So, here’s

Homemade Hot Apple Cider
Posted on December 14, 2009
Many apple cider recipes have sugar added to them and are overly sweet, for my taste. This recipe however goes in the other direction, I add water to it to dilute the natural sweetness of the apple juice. This also stretches the amount, making the recipe more economical. I made this the other day during

Candied Pecans

I love making candied nuts during the holiday season. There’s something very festive about them and they are satisfyingly sweet and filling at the same time. Lately I’ve been on a candied pecans kick. They’re super easy to make and my husband loves them. You could jazz up this recipe with some spices like cinnamon

Pumpkin Pie Muffins
Posted on October 17, 2008
These gluten free Pumpkin Pie Muffins are, of course, a favorite of my younger son. When he was little, he ate so much pumpkin and winter squash that he turned a slightly orange hue. Luckily, he’s back to normal now. I often forget how much I love cooking with pumpkin until fall arrives. Well, fall

Acorn Squash with Cranberry Apple Stuffing
Posted on October 10, 2008
Some days I need a little inspiration. I knew that I would be baking squash for our Shabbat dinner tonight. And I knew it would have some delicious dried cranberries in it. I just wasn’t entirely sure what form it would all take. I looked around on the internet for a bit and saw this

Charoset
Posted on April 2, 2008
Charoset is one of my favorite Passover foods. During the Seder, this sweet, fruity dish holds a special, symbolic place, reminding us of the mortar which the Jews used to bond bricks while enslaved in Egypt. European Jews (Ashkenazi) traditionally use nuts, apples, cinnamon and sweet wine for this dish. Jews of Middle Eastern descent

Homemade Applesauce
Posted on December 2, 2007
I love the season of late fall, just before the winter solstice. The days get super short –well, I don’t love that. Nevertheless, I enjoy the chill in the air and seeing the mountains covered in snow. For me, cold weather is merely a great excuse to stay home and bake, and this time of

Baked Apples
Posted on October 28, 2007
To me, fall means baked apples. Simple. Delicious. Sweet. Warm. Comfort. The other day, my older son asked if we could partake in our favorite fall ritual and bake up some apples. I was busy with a bunch of other cooking projects so he took matters into his own hands, cored a couple of apples,

Granola
Posted on September 11, 2007
I love gluten free granola; sweet and crunchy, it always satisfies a good snack attack. I also get a kick out of using the term “granola” to ridicule my Boulder brethren. However, when I’m feeling earthy, dousing myself in patchouli (which my husband dislikes to no end) I can easily apply the term to myself
