“Don’t put things in the ice tray to cool!” My dad said for the hundredth time regarding my habit of placing hot dishes in the ice tray of our automatic ice maker so they would cool quickly. I nodded my assent and murmured my apology. But then I made these amazing gummies. The red…
Blueberry and Peach Tart (guest post from Goodies Against the grain)
Note from Heather: I can’t remember how I found Sadie’s blog, but I was impressed with her recipes, photography, and blog overall! Her recipes are paleo-friendly and so delicious-looking! And guess what: she is only 13 years old!! I love finding other paleo bloggers, but I especially love find other teen paleo bloggers! Go check…
Mango Coconut Mug Cake (paleo, nut-free, fruit-sweetened)
I just love mug muffins. There’s something amazing about mixing up an egg with some coconut flour and eating a big ol’ muffin a minute later. I’ve made so many mug muffin variations; it’s almost embarrassing. Not quite though, because mug muffins are awesome! Mangoes are in season again and so now…
Soft Paleo Cinnamon Rolls (Nut-free)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH Sorry about that, I am just so excited about these paleo cinnamon rolls! I have tried and tried to make cinnamon rolls without grains. Dozens of times.

Cassava Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies
The true test of a flour is the chocolate chip cookie. Yes, I know I’ve made french bread and pasta and pizza with cassava flour, but really, the cookie is the real test. The first time I tried these cookies I added some coconut flour. The resulting cookies was too tough. I decided to…
Paleo Chocolate Cookies (paleo, nut-free, egg-free, seed-free)
When we first started paleo when I was 14, the food requirements weren’t too hard. Grain-free, legume-free, refined sugar-free. Now, things are a little more complicated. It seems like everyone is allergic to dairy, and so many people can’t have eggs, these restrictions being in my own family. I have at least one paleo chocolate…
Pineapple Muffins – a guest post on Hold The Grain
Pineapple is one of my favorite fruits. I don’t know what it is, but I could eat whole pineapple in one sitting, except that my mother and friends love it just as much as I do. I also have an affinity for coconut. I just can’t understand people not liking coconut. To each their…
Paleo Lemon Biscotti with Poppyseeds
Lots of amazing things are happening in my neck of the woods! I can’t tell you about everything yet, but here are two things that I am ready to shout to the world: 1) I am on Instagram!! It’s officially my new favorite social network. If you want to see a behind-the-scenes part of…
AIP Scones with Raspberries
When I was 7 years old, and was absolutely obsessed with my Easy Bake oven. I loved to stir up the little mixes, scoop them into the pan, and push them into the oven. The seconds would tick by so slowly as I waited for my confection to bake. When the timer finally beeped, I…

Plantain Brownies 2.0
Many of you may remember my first attempt at plantain brownies: Were they delicious? I thought so. I have a pretty low “sweetness threshold” though. Other people were saying that they weren’t fudgy enough and not sweet enough. Since I only have 2 recipes for brownies on my blog (the other one is…
Maple Vanilla Chia Pudding (guest post from Hold The Grain)
From Heather: I’m so excited to have the amazingly talented Tess from Hold The Grain guest posting today! Doesn’t this vanilla chia pudding look so amazing? I found her blog by accident and I am so glad I did! Her photography is beautiful, and she’s got such a great mix of grain…
Paleo Pancake Bread with Blueberries
I feel like doing a major happy dance right now. Why? Because every time my mother goes grocery shopping, she gets fresh berries! In my mind, that means spring is here! I love cooking with berries. It’s so fun; how else can you add big sweet blue blotches to a loaf of paleo pancake bread?…
Paleo Apple Strudel (nut-free)
Mother’s day is coming, and I’ve been thinking of the apple strudel that Mom always used to make for Mother’s Day brunch before paleo. She would use homemade dough and apple filling that she would make in the fall and freeze for later use. The result was a sweet apple pastry with a flaky dough that…
