I’m almost at a loss for words at how good this cake is. My grandma made her own version for us when we would come visit her in Michigan every year and she would always keep some in the freezer for me because I liked it really cold (it is amazing – try it!). This … German Dark Chocolate Cake
Lemony baked goods are perfect for spring because they add brightness and freshness. These scones are chock-full of lemon zest, which really helps that lemon flavor to shine through. The tart raspberries, sweet sugar topping and the nutty almond flour are an amazing flavor combo. Serve these at your next breakfast or brunch gathering paired … Lemon Raspberry Yogurt Scones
With spring right around the corner, I am planning to add lots of light, lemony desserts to my menus. I’m always trying to come up with desserts that not only satisfy, but also boast some health benefits. Using coconut sugar not only adds delicious coconut-y flavor, but it slows glucose absorption, making this a good … Lemony Coconut Sugar Tart with Nut Crust
If you offer me any combination of nut butter and chocolate, I’m in. These cookies are full of heart-healthy fats and natural sweetness. Pack one in your lunch for an afternoon treat or enjoy one for dessert with a glass of red wine. If you can’t find cashew butter, any nut butter will do as … No-Bake Salted Cashew Butter Cookies with Dark Chocolate Drizzle
I’ve always loved the combination of chocolate and peanut butter (who doesn’t, really?). This dessert is great for dinner parties and upcoming holiday events where some of your guests may want to have a gluten free and/or dairy free dessert option.

This weekend at the farmers market I saw cranberries and got super excited because that’s when you know it’s almost the holiday season.

I don’t eat paleo all the time, but I do enjoy baking with paleo flour because it’s lower carb so it helps to keep my blood sugar steady. We often don’t put cookie and breakfast together in the same sentence, but these are an exception. They are chock full of good-for-you ingredients and will keep … Paleo Pumpkin Breakfast Cookie
I’m always trying to find new ways to use my avocados since I buy them in bulk whenever they go on sale. They work beautifully in baked goods to add moisture and creaminess similar to butter. These cookie bars make a great snack or breakfast paired with your morning coffee. For added goodness and texture, … Coconut Pistachio Cookie Bars
No matter how hard I try, I always seem to have 1 or 2 bananas left over at the end of the week that are way too ripe for my liking. I was digging through old recipes and found my Mom’s banana bread, which is fool-proof and so delicious. I decided to add my … Banana Bread with Ginger and Orange Zest
The words dessert and healthy often don’t go together, but this time I’m making an exception. This pudding is one of my all-time favorite desserts. Not only is it super rich and delicious, but it boasts nutritional benefits as well (who can remember the last time your chocolate pudding contained fiber and healthy fats?). Because … Chocolate Avocado Pudding with Coconut Whipped Cream
