Gluten Free Cranberry Crumble Bars

These melt in your mouth crumble bars were adapted to gluten free using oat flour and almond flour.  They hold together well and taste amazing. They are great for a dessert, a holiday brunch, or anytime you want a little sweet and a little tart combined.  The crust tastes like an oatmeal cookie, moist and sweet.  I usually don't use refined sugar but it's the holidays so I let my standards go a little. I tried to make these vegan by using coconut oil but I could not get them to stick together even when using a chia egg.

Gluten Free Chocolate Maca Energy Bars

Finding a healthy granola bar that is healthy and all my kids will actually eat is nearly impossible.  But I finally succeeded!! I was tired of paying so much for bars that my kids didn't eat and that costs like a million dollars. I have made many, many batches of granola bars that were  "too healthy" and my kids (and my husband) wouldn't touch them. (Ok, maybe trying to add powdered green was a bit ambitious).  So I  finally came up a recipe that will give my kids some nutrients and they will actually eat them.  We all like these and they are great for a quick breakfast on the go, a hearty snack before sports. or even as a meal replacement bar.  They are high in fiber and protein. They also have omegas, healthy fats, and Maca to increase your strength and stamina.  I added the maca since I give these to my kids before sports and it gives them lasting energy. I wrap these individually and freeze them.  I throw them in lunches or grab them on the way out the door.  Easy to make!  Great on the go! Full of nutrition!

Gluten Free Herb Focaccia Bread

Who doesn't love a good focaccia bread with some pasta or a bowl of soup?  I couldn't find any in the store so I decided to make my own.  After some experimenting I came up with this recipe.  I like the texture and the taste and have been using the leftovers for sandwiches.  And I love that it has no rice flour in it.  I used sorghum flour, which is more nutrient dense and is a whole grain. With rice being high in arsenic I have been trying to cook with it less. The gluten free diet so high in rice so I like to vary the flours I use.  Sorghum and Almond flour work great in this recipe.

Gluten Free Crackers- Wheat Thin Style

My kids love snacks. But most gluten free snacks you buy in the store are very expensive and have very little (if any) nutritive value.  I like most of the food my kids eat (even snacks) to feed their body the vital nutrients it needs.  So, in an effort to save money and add more nutrition to their lives, I started making my own snacks.  Everyone in my family loves these crackers.  They are easy to make and have lots of nutrition.  They are packed with fiber, iron, Vitamin E and magnesium.
