Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Breakfast Recipes
Oat-Free Rhubarb Crisp/Crumble
It’s that time of year!! I was gifted some fresh rhubarb last night, so that means… … rhubarb crisp!! (Or crumble, or whatever you like to call it. It’s so delicious fresh from the oven with a cold scoop of vanilla ice cream. Yum!!). Here we pair the rhubarb with some fresh strawberries and blackberries that we had in our fridge, but rhubarb pairs super well with any berry, or even apples - something sweet that plays well with the sourness of the rhubarb. Also, feel free to u

🤎❤️🤍 Layered Choc Strawberry Chia Pudding Without the Wait 🤎❤️🤍
With the warm spring weather here, I find myself leaning away from my cooked keto porridge I ate on repeat all winter and feeling more like a chia pudding. One of my favourites I’ve made today with a couple of tricks, you can get rid of that 3+ hour wait you normally need for a chia pudding to thicken and you can make it for breakfast that day. This is going to be a layered chocolate vanilla chia pudding that I’m adding some strawberries too, but you can also mix it up and d

Nuts & Seeds Cookies
Let’s try another recipe that has been all over my YouTube fyp recently, stating “I don't eat sugar! Healthy cookies without flour or sugar! Energy dessert recipe!” Looking at the ingredients, they are basically a bunch of mixed nuts & seeds held together with a bit of honey. And some are dipped in dark chocolate. So what’s not to like about that? (Unless you don’t eat honey - then try this with your favourite sticky sweetener instead). After trying them out, I have to say, t
