Chocolate Hazelnut Banana Bread
Banana bread is great!! We LOVE banana bread over here, but let’s make it EVEN better by making it marbled with chocolate hazelnut batter. We start by mixing up our trusty almond-coconut banana bread, then divide the batter in 2 bowls. We keeping some of it vanilla, and add cocoa powder, choc chips & chopped hazelnuts to the rest. Alternate scoops into a loaf pan, and top with more chocolate chips & chopped hazelnuts, then bake, and enjoy!! So pretty & so good! Batter Ingredi

Chickpea Blondies from the Today Show 💫😍
I’ve been wanting to try these blondies since I first saw Samah Dada’s recipe - she even got to share her recipe on the Today Show! And says it’s her most popular dessert recipe, and it’s made with CHICKPEAS. Chickpea blondies were really having their moment a year or so ago (remember the Alix Earle viral chickpea blondies?) and I finally made some today, in between batches of naan, and date squares… They’re gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, egg-free, refined-sugar-free, a

Healthy Nuts & Seeds Granola | Oat-Free, Grain-Free, Vegan
I made myself a new batch of granola yesterday in between sourdough batches (luckily it’s super quick to put together and fits in my air oven so it doesn’t take up one of my big bakery ovens). This is my current “granola” obsession that I like to throw on my n’oat oatmeal , chia pudding or chocolate tofu pudding for a crunch factor. I really like the hearty-ness the almond butter adds, and all the chia seeds too. Feel free to double or triple this batch, and make 2 trays wo

Frosted Avocado Brownies | V & GF
If you have one avocado you need these small batch avocado brownies in your life - we put half the avocado in the batter which ends up so rich and decadent and delicious. I could eat it by the spoonful and there’s no ingredient in it that says you can’t (I didn’t lick all the spatulas clean…). Then after it’s cooled, we use the other half of the avocado to make avocado frosting, which is essentially chocolate avocado mousse on top of your fudgy, avocado brownies. And they’re

Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Cups 🍪🥜🍫
We tried Billie Eilish’s ooey gooey PB cookie recipe this week, and they were super delicious, but we had leftover cookie dough (we only baked half the recipe) so my daughter suggested we make Reese peanut butter cups but with the cookie dough ➡️ cookie cups. Super easy no bake recipe, kid friendly, and ended up tasting very much like Reese PB cups (but with the extra choc chips from the cookie dough, and who ever said no to extra choc chips?!?). What you need: 1) some cooki

Yes, the flattened croissant is totally worth the hype! We finally made one, but gf/df/v. Gluten-free croissants ARE a little fragile, so it was trickier, but in the end it turned out delicious.
