Paleo Coconut Flour Banana Bread
Hi friends, I’ve been experimenting with gluten-free baking more and more and although it is a lot harder to get good results, I am loving it!

Vegan Grain Free Chickpea Blondies
Hi friends, Call me weird but legumes are actually becoming my new favourite baking ingredient. They are full of protein, fibre & healthy carbohydrates. Plus they make baking so soft and fluffy!

Whole Wheat Cranberry Nut Biscotti
Hi friends, You know what I love? One bowl recipes. They make life 100% easier and sure maybe sometimes I must use more than one bowl, but often times, I’m like nope! It’s just not necessary. More bowls = more dishes right? This Whole Wheat Cranberry Nut Biscotti is a favourite of mine to dip […]
Chocolate Peppermint Cheesecake Squares
Hi friends! Happy December! I’m so excited about life lately. For the past few months I just felt a little bogged down and burnt out and have been taking as much time as I could to slow down and practice more self care for myself. During my “slow” down, I was in the kitchen quite […]
