Healthy Multi-Seed & Nut Bread aka āLife Changing Breadā Recipe
This was inspired by my recent visit to The Southwest Collective when I was visiting my friend back in April 2024. One day that week, her husband took the day off work, to watch their two young kids so we could go out together alone for brunch. I asked if they had a gluten-free bread option to go with my meal. The server said they had āLife Giving Breadā (but now Iām wondering if they had said Life Changing Bread and I heard them wrong). You can watch the short here:...

UPDATED Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread
So it's that time of year again! Lol! Anyone that knows anyone with zucchini plants are now being given all their extra zucchini. We didn't get our seeds planted early enough this year, so I thought we were going to miss out, but a friend of a friend, has been giving us BAGS of them (so many I brought some to my parents' house). Here's one of our favourite ways to use zucchini which dates back to my grandparents baking us zucchini bread when I was a kid. My mom told me last w

Apple Crisp Recipe (2 ways)
With apple season finally here (we got some yummy apples from Lee & Maria's this week, and also picked out first apple from our new Honeycrisp tree in our backyard!) I've dusted off my mom's old apple crisp recipe, and given it a gluten-free, refined-sugar-free overhaul. Hope you like it! I make it two different ways: 1. As one bigger crisp: This makes enough for a 8x8 baking dish, and is great for sharing. For that, we like to bake it in a square 8x8 pyrex baking dish. 2. On

Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread Recipe
In our house, zucchini season calls for double chocolate zucchini bread!! Back when I was little, my grandma would make us zucchini bread, using zucchinis they had grown in their backyard garden.

No fancy steps or equipment required, and it's all mixed in one bowl, so easy clean up too. INGREDIENTS 1 large or 2 smaller zucchinis (after shredding y

Buckwheat Pancake Recipe (gf)(veg)
Use this recipe to make heart pancakes in this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIrECcTgIg8&t=126s My family was making pancakes this morning for breakfast, and I felt like switching it up from my regular almond-flour based pancakes, so we made a buckwheat batter instead. They turned out great, and were easy to cook (not like a lot of other gf recipes that are super tricky to flip). So here's a great gluten-free recipe, for when you feel like switching it up too. B

Add some optional toppings for crunch, and youāre all set for a sweet-tooth-satisfying breakfast, full of healthy fats to keep you full until lunch.

Homemade Paleo Waffles (vegan option)
While my kids love pancakes ( you can try our pancake recipe here ), I've always been a sucker for French toast or waffles.

This one is a little trickier and has a few extra ingredients than the pancake recipe, but its totally worth it!
