I have been working on this almond and coconut bread recipe for a year now. In case you’re wondering, I did try using arrowroot in place of the psyllium and it didn’t work as a loaf. At all. First of all I had to double the amount (twice as much arrowroot as psyllium), and it…
My Korean Deli by Ben Ryder Howe
Hi everyone. It’s Kelly’s husband here, and I have a book review for you. It’s not a new book. It was first published in 2011, so it’s not like I’m sharing big news after reading an advance copy. This is more of a “Hey, have you heard of this book? It’s really good.” When the paperback…
Almond & Apricot Dairy Free Cheese Danish Cake
This dairy free cheese danish cake is based on my ooey gooey cake. And I think it’s even better this way. I’ve made it a few times now with the apricot spread, and next I’m moving on to either raspberry or strawberry spread. I can’t wait.I have been dreaming of cheese danish for years, and…
Most Popular Recipes of 2012
My friend Lexie had this great idea to post All-Star Recipes of 2012 on her blog this month. I thought I would do the same here, and post some of my most popular recipes of 2012. As I was going through them I realized that the majority of my most popular recipes were baked goods and…
Nut Crackers? No, Nutcrackers!
Hi, It’s Kelly’s husband Andrew here with a funny story for you. Putting away Christmas decorations reminded me of this. When we first went gluten-free we often bought almond nut crackers from the store (we don’t buy them these days because of the rice and butter). Maybe it was the Christmas of 2003 that Kelly…
Coconut Cream Roulade
Years ago I saw a roulade in a Scandinavian holiday cookbook and I thought it was so pretty. I couldn’t wait to make it with my ingredients. But after a few tries I was no where near close to something that could be rolled. The cake broke into pieces. Fast forward to a few months…
Christmas Cucidati (Italian fig cookies)
Hi everybody. It’s me Andrew, Kelly’s husband. I made a recipe for the blog. With holidays coming up I’ve been thinking about Christmases past. My family moved to Pennsylvania when I was a little kid, but we drove back to Schenectady, NY for a week every Christmas. My Grandpa Corty and Grandma Margo’s house was…
Around the house
This is the new view through my kitchen window. I love the house we’re renting. Of course it isn’t perfect—nothing is—but like all things in life I choose to focus on the positive. This is the view as I make dinner… ——> Absolutely perfect. Look at this smile as Ginger gets a ride though the…
Individual Chocolate Hazelnut Pies
This fall we ate so much pumpkin pie that I decided to make something else for Thanksgiving: Individual chocolate hazelnut pies, although they were actually so rich that we had to split them. The pies were great just as they are, but I kept imagining them drizzled with coconut cream. Doesn’t that sound good? Or…
Happy Thanksgiving
I am so grateful for all your love and support! ♥, Kelly P.S. My sweetie made this cranberry sauce (above) late last night when we realized we had forgotten 🙂 He used THIS recipe, but with 1/4 to 1/2 of the sweetener. It’s a-mazing.
