Welcome to The OTHER Side of Mindful BakeHouse
The side for the do-it-yourselfers, the adventurous bakers, and those that live a little too 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 i

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

Turtle Ice Cream Bark
Let’s make ice cream bark a thing! Like the viral TikTok yogurt bark, but made with ice cream & fun toppings - this one is “turtles” inspired with our caramel-y 2-ingredient date-sweetened ice cream, crispy chocolate, crunchy pecans, and our no cook caramel. You could even use a protein ice cream to boost the protein content (for that, see protein option in ice cream recipe/video. There’s also a lower sugar version and a chocolate option too). Here’s what I used for this bark

Chocolate Tofu Pudding ✨🍫
This pudding is rich & creamy, high in protein, and secretly healthy - you could eat it for this breakfast (I am!!) And it’s made with tofu! All you do is blend tofu with maple syrup, cocoa powder , vanilla, and salt. And you’ve just made a decadent chocolate pudding that’s super simple, sneaky good and secretly packed with plant-based protein. Ingredients 1 block (10.8 oz) silken tofu ¼–⅓ cup cocoa powder* ¼–⅓ cup maple syrup* (or sub your fav sugar-free syrup for a low carb

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

🤍💖 3-Ingredient Raspberry Truffles
These vibrant little truffles are fresh, fruity, and the perfect no-bake treat 💕 A fun break from classic chocolate truffles! The filling is made with freeze-dried raspberry powder, coconut milk, and vegan white chocolate, then dipped in melted white chocolate and finished with a pretty drizzle + a sprinkle of raspberry powder. Tip: white chocolate is thinner, so I usually do a second dip for that perfect coating ✨ This batch makes 8 one-tablespoon truffles, but feel free to

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

🥐 Viral flattened croissant, but gf & vegan?
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. I love how crispy it gets after cooling. Watch me make it: https://youtube.com/shorts/KA6q7aCkkuc Here’s how we did it: Ingredients: -gluten-free/dairy-free croissants (see note below for sources*) -avocado spray oil, instead of butter -organic maple syrup, instead of brown sugar -veg

Healthy 3-Ingredient Rice Crispy Squares
With maple syrup and almond butter, I thought these would be perfect for my kid with braces (instead of sticky marshmallows) & bonus you get to avoid over processed ingredients like corn syrup, they come together super quick, and are endlessly customizable (sub your fav cereal, a diff nut/seed butter or sticky sweetener of choice!!). They have a similar texture but without the sticky pull. I was quite impressed, though I felt like they took much longer than 30 minutes to set

Miraculous 1-Ingredient CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
I keep seeing these 1 or 2 ingredient chocolate recipes, and sometimes they fail, and sometimes they look delicious - It makes me think, do they really work? And are they any good? So we’re finally giving it a try. Here’s how we’re doing it: Ingredients: 150g dark choc (you want good tasting, high cocao content, good quality choc since this is the only flavour component - I used 70% allulose-sweetened-dark chocolate) 1/2c boiling water (not cold, as some recipe say - we want

Soft & Gooey Banana-Date Sticky Buns | GF/DF/V
Watch the step-by-step video here: https://youtu.be/l2XuXBvGvoc Banana sticky buns are my nostalgic go-to for using up way too many ripe bananas. When I was little, my mom used to make Banana Sticky Buns from the Bisquick cookbook. (Sidebar: do you remember when every baking brand had its own cookbook? The Robin Hood flour one will forever be my favourite.) When I first started my YouTube channel, I tried to gluten-free-ify that recipe. And while it was… fine? It definitely
