No-Bake Carrot Cake Cookies
I love carrot cake. I remember the first time I ever had carrot cake. It was actually a paleo recipe from Make It Paleo by Bill Staley and Haley Mason! It was so moist and delicious. I could’ve eaten that carrot cake every day. The reason I don’t is because making cake is quite a bit…
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…

Paleo Gingerbread Cookies (without molasses)
I was in the mood to make Christmas cookies this weekend, so I decided to recreate a gingerbread cookie recipe that Mom used to make. It did not have molasses, but used butterscotch pudding mix. Man they were good… In order to replicate that flavor, I used lots of vanilla and a healthy dose of…
Paleo Truffles
In practicing my food photography, I needed a new recipe to try out my skills on. That’s the origin of this fudge-y truffle recipe. Conventional recipes for truffles use butter and cream, but I had just made some homemade coconut butter and thought that it might work well. The coconut butter was easy to make…
