As real foodies, most of us try to limit our intake of sweet treats. On the occasion that I do indulge in a treat, I want to make sure that I am not reversing all of the good I’ve done with my regular routine of clean eating. Fortunately, there are plenty of amazing options for gluten-free cookies, brownies, and bars made with high-quality ingredients!
Store-bought treats, even the gluten-free ones, are usually filled with artificial sweeteners, crazy amounts of sugar, food colorings, preservatives, and a bunch of other stuff that I just won’t eat. When made at home, you can select the best ingredients. You can choose to soak your nuts for better digestion and you can use organic or local ingredients.
I also love the idea of making cookies, brownies, or bars as treats, because of the built-in portion control. It’s easier to tell myself that I will have one or two cookies than it is to cut a small piece of pie!
Cookies, brownies, and bars are also perfect for sharing. Need to bring something to a party or a bake sale? Cakes and pies are always fun, but no need to bring a knife when you bake handheld treats!

Learn How to Make Perfect Ice Cream (and Other Frozen Treats) at Home
Ice cream is the quintessential dessert (and, ahem, it would probably go pretty darn great with any of these recipes!). I mean, I can’t think of a single person that I’ve ever met who doesn’t like ice cream. While not everyone is as passionate about the cold, creamy, sweet concoction as I am, I am betting that if you’re reading this, you probably enjoy a frozen treat of some sort every now and then.
If so, then I have the PERFECT resource for you today.
I am crazy for ice cream, but I find that there are very few commercial ice creams that I can eat. I can’t do dairy, so that scratches a good 75% of them off the list. And the non-dairy options either taste funny, have too much sugar, or have weird gums and additives that my poor gut just doesn’t tolerate.
So, what’s a gal to do?
Master the art of making her own ice cream at home, that’s what!
And create I did and The Splendid Scoop and Other Frozen Treats eBook was born! This is one of my best-selling eBooks because I arm you with everything you need to make your own perfect ice cream (or other frozen treats) at home any time you want.
And I do it all with real food ingredients, no refined sweeteners, not gums, not stabilizers. No junk here.
Oh, and I also have made the recipes allergen-friendly and even adaptable for stricter healing diets (like the AIP).
So, if you are ready to master the art of making your own ice cream at home, this is the perfect book for you. Don’t let another special occasion or hot day in the summer pass you by watching everyone else enjoying cold treats while you sit on the sideline due to your dietary restrictions.
No more!
