    Cranberry Orange Sage Cake

    If you’re looking for something a little something different for your holiday table, give this recipe for gluten free cranberry orange sage upside down cake a try. Delightfully spiced, fruity, and with just a background hint of sage (to make your tastebuds say “hummm, what is that?!) It’s light top off to a heavy holiday meal. Don’t get me wrong, pie is great, but it’s good to have options! One of my favorite things about November and December in Michigan is cranberry season. Heck, I love all the flavors of the holiday season. Cranberry, orange, sage, and all the warm spices that come along with them. But it can be…

    Best-Ever Gluten Free Banana Nut Muffins

    I am the QUEEN of letting perfectly good bananas go to waste. So in an effort to counter my own personal madness, I am constantly on the hunt for ways to use my ugly, but super sweet and delish bananas. That’s how The Best-Ever Gluten Free Banana Nut Muffins were born. After a quick little Google, I stumbled upon Sugar Spun Run’s recipe for The Best Banana Muffin. They looked incredibly amazing and with streusel topping-gasp-my fav! I had to give them a try. One problem. They weren’t gluten free! With my proclivity for culinary tampering, I give you what I dare say are just as good, if not better…

    Gluten Free Cherry Limeaide Bundt Cake

    Cherry Limeaide. The first time I ever had a cherry limeaide slush was on my honeymoon in Daytona Beach, Florida. I had seen commercials for Sonic but we didn’t have any in Michigan. And Sonic’s Cherry Limeaide was iconic. It was sweet, sour, and cold. Everything you could possibly want on a 90 degree day in December in Florida. Since my initial encounter with Cherry Limeaide, Sonic’s have been popping up in Michigan, one right around the corner from my house. Yaaaaassss! And my love affair with Cherry Limeaide has continued right into this Gluten Free Cherry Limeaide Bundt Cake. About a month ago, I was crusing the aisles of…

    Gluten Free Orange Cardamom Blondies

    Confession: I’m not a big chocolate fan. Go ahead, throw your shade, but I will choose a blondie over a brownie any day. Sorry, not sorry. It’s why I gravitate to these Gluten Free Orange Cardamom Blondies. There’s something about a gooey blondie. It’s a sure way to make my day. My coworker, Prindle, makes the best blondies in the entire world. And I’ve always aspired to make her calibur of blondie. So when TheFeedFeed launched a contest to revamp a s’more in partnership with Ghiradelli, my mind set off on the best way to tackle the task. Maybe it was my own personal craving, but I knew I wanted…

    Pasta with Butter, Sage, and Parmesan

    I LOVE pasta. So much so, that think I might have been an Italian grandmother in a past life. My love for noodles is on another level. Load that pasta up with butter, sage, and parm and I’m in heaven. Before I went gluten free, I ate pasta 3-4 times per week. It was my go-to dinner. Fast, easy, and not a lot of prep. For a working mom of three, pasta was a weeknight-savior. And then, cold turkey. No pasta for me. My kids kept enjoying it’s deliciousness, while I nibbled trail mix in the corner. Side-eyeing them while I stewed in my own jealousy. As time has gone…

    Gluten Free Millionaire Shortbread

    How do you make millionaire shortbread into billionaire shortbread with a flick of the wrist? Add hazelnuts, of course! When I first went gluten free, I missed Twix bars more than I could ever explain. They are by far my favorite candy bar. I knew that the classic millionaire shortbread would be a great stand in. Shortbread covered by luxurious caramel, topped with chocolate? I’ll take 10 please! When I was researching how I wanted to make these bars, I looked at several classic recipes. So much inspiration, they all looked yummy, but all seemed a little…boring. So I wondered if I could take the classic Millionaire Shortbread and dress…
