I’m going to be totally honest with you guys. I don’t like carob. Not that I dislike it in and of itself, but I dislike the fact that it tries to be chocolate. One Direction will never be The Beatles*, and carob will never be chocolate, even in carob chip cookies. That said, carob can…
Paleo Carrot Cake Bars (nut-free)
I remember the first time I had paleo carrot cake. It was actually a recipe from Make It Paleo by Bill Staley and Haley Mason. It was delicious, and I have been in love ever since. I loved the idea of putting a vegetable in dessert. It practically makes it a salad. I’ve had paleo carrot…
No Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies
I sent out a poll on my Facebook page a couple days ago: Within 24 hours, I had lots of votes. The race was close, but the No Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies eventually won the day with 12 votes to 10 for the meatballs. I must admit that you who voted chose well. These no bake…
Coconut Panna Cotta (AIP)
My local health food store just got young thai coconuts in stock!! I was sooooo excited!!! As you can tell from my use of multiple exclamation points!! I’ve always wanted to make something with a fresh coconut. So I bought one. I had absolutely no idea what I was going to do with it, but…
Paleo Cereal Flakes (AIP)
I’m sure that most of us paleo people have heard of Julian Bakery by now. Paleo bread, paleo cereal, wraps, pizza, etc., etc. I recently tried their Paleo Coconut Flakes and really liked them, but I will not buy Julian Bakery’s products because of some drama that went down earlier this winter. I won’t rehash…
Paleo Berry Cobbler (AIP)
Here in the Resler house, we love our cobblers and crisps. We have one at least twice a month, and it’s our company dessert of choice. Crisp is so easy to throw together, but it tastes like pie; what’s not to love? This paleo berry cobbler recipe is great because it’s so low in sugar…
Chocolate Espresso Snack Bars
I have a confession. I am not perfect paleo. Go ahead, unlike me on Facebook, unfollow me on Twitter and Pinterest; I won’t cry. Too much. I am totally gluten free and mostly dairy free and 95% paleo, but I have one vice, and that vice is… wait for it…. protein bars. Think Thin…
Chocolate Triple Berry Muffins
It’s almost spring!! Well, sort of. Kinda. Not really. But an early sign of spring here in the Midwest is when the berries go on sale at the supermarket. I just got some of this awesome tigernut flour from Organic Gemini. Tigernuts are not actually a nut; they are a starchy tuber. Tigernut flour adds…

Blueberry Breakfast Cake
I don’t think it’s a secret that I love to bake. And my family loves me for it. At least for the things that turn out well. While I love to create delicious confections, I also want to insert as much nutrition as I can and as little sugar as I can get away…
Orange Poppyseed Paleo Teacakes with Thyme
This paleo teacakes recipe reminds me of when I was a little kid, and I and my friends would play this game where I was the grumpy “Miss Manderly” teaching my friends to act like proper ladies over teatime. Most of the time the “tea” and “teacakes” were simply imaginary, and the fun in the…
Paleo Chocolate Doughnuts
I hope everyone had a wonderful and memorable and Christmas! Christmas is my favorite holiday of all time. I had a couple more Christmas posts planned, but what with all the festivities it just didn’t happen. One of my favorite Christmas presents was a doughnut pan, and I simply had to cook with it immediately!…
Paleo Sugar Cookies (with egg-free option)
I recently did a poll on my Facebook page: 19 comments later, I was fairly surprised by the results: I was expecting everyone to ask for pizelles or or something really fussy like that. But what everyone really missed was a good old-fashioned paleo sugar cookies recipe! Here’s a tally of the top…

Pumpkin Crepes with Roasted Apple Butter
I love crepes. And pumpkin. And apple butter. Putting them together = perfection. In my book, crepes always go with apple butter because one of my friend’s moms always serves her crepes with apple butter, and the results are pretty amazing. This apple butter contains no added sugar, and it is so full of flavor…
Pumpkin Fudge
I am obsessed with all things pumpkin these days. Can I just eat pumpkin for every meal? So delicious, and so many ways to use it too. I am also a total chocolate lover. Especially dark chocolate. So I decided mixing pumpkin and chocolate couldn’t be a bad idea. I was right. This pumpkin fudge…
