Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 cup cassava flour
  • 1/4 cup Tigernut flour *can use more cassava or almond flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp coconut sugar
  • 1 egg whisked (use 2 tbs. of pumpkin puree for AIP)
  • 5 Tbsp butter or coconut oil
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup

Filling

  • 4-5 peaches pitted and sliced
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbsp fresh grated ginger
  • 1 Tbsp arrowroot or tapioca starch
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 Tbsp coconut sugar

Topping

  • 1 Tbsp of olive oil
  • 1/2 Tbsp ground ginger
  • 1 Tbsp coconut sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Toss sliced peaches with the remaining filling ingredients and set aside.
  • Whisk dry ingredients for crust together then add whisked egg and remaining wet ingredients. Use a fork to cut the wet ingredients into the dry for a couple of minutes, then switch to your hands to combine everything fully and get a ball of dough.
  • Roll out the crust between 2 pieces of parchment paper. You can make whatever shape you want, but it should be about 12inch in diameter if it’s a circle.
  • Line your peach slices over the crust, leaving about 1/2-1inch of space around the border. Use the parchment paper to fold the crust over the edges of the peaches. If it cracks, that’s okay, just wet your finger and gently work the dough back together.
  • Brush the edges of the crust with the olive oil, then mix the sugar and ginger for the topping together and sprinkle around the edges. Use any extra to sprinkle over the top of the galette.
  • Bake for 40-50 min, until the crust is golden. Remove and let cool. Slice and enjoy with some fresh ice cream or whipped cream!

Ingredients

  • 3 cups chopped fresh fruit (I used peaches and strawberries)
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp coconut sugar
  • 3 Tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 cup Tigernut flour or almond
  • 1/2 cup Beth Blends flour mix or 1:1 gluten free flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4-1 cup milk of choice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Mix fruit, lemon juice, and sugar together in a bowl and set aside. If you use rhubarb, I highly suggest adding an extra tbs of sugar as rhubarb can be quite sour when baked.
  • Place coconut oil in a 9×9 baking dish and put it in the oven as it preheats, so oil melts.
  • Whisk dry ingredients together (flours, powder, salt) then add the maple syrup, vanilla, and 3/4 cup of milk.
  • Batter should be pretty runny, if not, add more milk.
  • Once coconut oil has melted, pour batter over the oil. You can tilt the dish side to side a little to evenly spread things, but don’t mix!
  • Dump the fruit evenly on top.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out just clean.
  • Let cool completely and enjoy with ice cream!

Gluten Free Berry Crumble Cake

Ingredients and Substitutions:

  • Flour: this cake is made with a combination of gluten free flour and tigernut or almond flour. I have not tested a Paleo version.
  • Yogurt: I use a vegan yogurt as I am dairy free, but Greek yogurt would also work!
  • Berries: this recipe calls for fresh berries. I have not tested it with frozen berries, but I think that would work just fine.
  • Crumble topping: the crumble topping is made with oats. You can eliminate the oats and use more flour or nuts if desired.
  • Sweetener: this cake is made completely refined sugar free by using coconut sugar and maple syrup.

I love chopping up a bar of chocolate to add to brownies or cookies because it melts and you get that chocolate pool when you bite into a warm slice. Chocolate chips are designed to hold their shape, but adding that chopped chocolate really takes it to the next level!

These healthier brownies have a fraction of the sugar while still being fudgy and delicious. These gluten free, dairy free, and allergy friendly brownies will make you realize you can eat healthier versions of your favorite foods!

Protein Packed Carrot Cake Cheesecake (Gluten & Dairy Free)

Protein Packed Carrot Cake Cheesecake (Gluten & Dairy Free)

Who says you can’t enjoy dessert and keep it healthy and nutrient dense? This delicious cheesecake will prove to you just how easy it is! This cheesecake uses yogurt and eggs to get the creamy filling, there is no cream cheese or other fancy ingredients. You can keep that protein level high based on the yogurt you use plus the protein powder and eggs. But, this cheesecake can easily be made completely dairy free. Healthy cheesecake? Yes!

Ingredient Notes

What Yogurt Should I Use?

I used a vegan yogurt in this recipe since I am dairy free. Oatly brand works well in this because it is thicker. If you tolerate dairy, go for a Greek yogurt for the right texture and to boost the protein content!

What About the Protein Powder?

I do add protein powder to this recipe to amp up the protein. You want to use a pea protein because it acts like flour. If you don’t have pea protein, you can just use 2 tablespoons of 1:1 gluten free flour instead.
