If you are new to bread making, this is a great intro bread to start you off. It’s delicious! And quick! And there is no kneading required, just easy shaping (what this means is in the directions). You’ll be a artisan bread maker in no time!

Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Oat Squares (GF/DF)

I was inspired to make these squares as I had a jar of delicious hazelnut butter in the cupboard and thought it would be a nice change from peanut butter in baking. It looks like a lot of ingredients but it comes together quickly and the results are delicious. Don’t be tempted to bake them until they are really browned – they will be too crumbly that way. Enjoy these for breakfast, a energy boost snack or for dessert.

Stone Fruit Crisp

My gluten and dairy free Stone Fruit Crisp is a medley of ground almonds, oats, warming spices, natural sweetener, nuts and coconut. Combine that goodness to top slices of ripe nectarines, peaches, plums or pitted cherries and bake to create a delicious and nutritious juicy fruit-bottomed, crispy-topping dessert. Leftovers are wonderful for breakfast the next morning!

Cashew Milk -(Plain and Chocolate)

Making your own plant-based milk with cashews is so easy. The cashews are soft and blend smoothly so there is no need to have to strain the pulp out as you have to do with other nut milks. Cashews are rich in fiber, iron, high in magnesium and the unsaturated fat in cashews is predominantly a healthy oleic acid (the same as in olive oil). Plain cashew milk is delicious to use in coffee or tea, over cereal, in baking, or to drink on its own. Adding cocoa makes chocolate cashew milk which is heavenly!

Saskatoon Berries are a superfood, packed with antioxidants and high in plant-based fiber, they look like blueberries and have a similar taste but they are not related.
