Pumpkin Pie Muffins (gluten-free and regular)

There’s not much to say about these delicious muffins! This recipe will be in my cookbook. One of the testers said “My daughter said they tasted like pumpkin pie. And my little guy couldn’t help himself from stealing fistfuls of the ones we were trying to save for his daddy.” You can easily call them […]

Gluten-free crepe recipe

Sometimes I can be intimidated to cook certain foods, especially new gluten-free dishes. For some reason, I had thought crepes would be similar to going into the chem lab.

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Recipe

I created this recipe in hopes of it being a big hit at our local festival. I was co-chairing a food booth for my son’s school and I thought this would fly off of the proverbial shelves. A combination of bad location and signage led to less than enthusiastic results. However, on the upside, I […]

Wheat-Free Banana Muffins or Bread

Like most people, I don’t like to throw out food. Most food, as it gets “older” just gets closer and closer to the garbage (or disposal or compost bin). But one food, bananas, can change from a mushy, smelly fruit to a delicious muffin or bread. For whatever reason, last week, I bought too many […]
