Bakery Blog & Recipes


Welcome to The OTHER Side of Mindful BakeHouse
The side for the do-it-yourselfers, the adventurous bakers, and those that live a little to far away to make it to our bakery in person. This is where I post all the fun gluten-free dairy-free things I've been testing/making that aren't official BakeHouse recipes. Most of which we also share on our YouTube Channel, as well as our second instagram account, & TikTok. So if you're like me and you'd rather watch than read, feel free to go follow us on your fav social media app in

And today? I fell hard for these Macadamia Crack Bars — gl

🍒✨ Maple Syrup Orange Cranberry Sauce | Fresh & Easy
You have no excuses to use canned gelatinous cranberry sauce - making your own is super easy and you'll never go back to canned!! Watch how easy it is: https://youtube.com/shorts/b57pDkBj3Xc?feature=share Growing up with Dutch parents, we always had homemade applesauce on the table for Thanksgiving and Christmas—a bright, refreshing contrast to all the rich dishes.
