(vegan, gluten-free) JUMP TO RECIPE The gauntlet had been thrown down. My friend had all but challenged me to create my own personal vegan gluten-free salted caramel apple Dutch baby pancake recipe.

Chocolate-Filled Buns
(vegan, gluten-free) JUMP TO RECIPE Imagine a slightly sweet hamburger bun filled with chocolate and pecans. I imagined it, I experimented with it, I made it, and I am very happy with the results.

Carobanana Cookies

My mother, a strong advocate of the natural foods co-op movement and an experimentalist in her own right, introduced me to carob as... Continue Reading →
