Gluten Free Recipes (Most Popular)
Gluten free oats, brown rice flour, cornmeal and flaxseed star in this sweet-tart cookie packed with chopped fresh (or frozen) cranberries! Virgin coconut oil adds a hint of extra flavour too - you'll never miss the dairy, eggs or gluten!
Adapted slightly from Put 'em Up! by Sherri Brooks Vinton. I love that this plum sauce was actually made from plums and not buckets of sugar like commercial sauces (the one we usually buy is made of "sugar, pumpkin, white vinegar, modified corn starch, plum purée, salt, concentrated lemon juice, garlic (contains soybean oil), red jalapeño pepper, citric acid, acetic acid, caramel colour").
Baked in a casserole for 2 hours, this melange of spicy trimmings from a leg of lamb (the meat that was too close to the bone for mom to bother with back at Easter), Thai chili, garlic, carrot and onions is meltingly tender and rich - but deceptively low in fat!
These mini cakes are dark, dense and rich - just sweet enough (with a complex sugar profile from xylitol, stevia, glycerin and brown sugar), and with a touch of fruity elegance from cherry jam. A nutty note from coconut oil, quinoa and adzuki beans seals the deal on these gluten free, vegan wonders. This is rich, so a tiny piece satisfies!
I wanted to make the toddlers at school something pink in honour of Valentine's Day, since the older kids were getting a taste of my Red Velvet Popcorn. Leftover sushi/sticky rice, a mix of stevia and sugar, whole milk and a few beaten eggs cooked together into a creamy mix that got a punch of colour, flavour and nutrition from frozen raspberries!
Tangy, a little sweet and a touch spicy, this chutney is a perfect way to use up the end of the season's green tomatoes. Dried fruit and cider vinegar add sweet and sour, while the onions and garlic team with hot peppers, cumin and mustard seed for a savoury note.
Rich with browned butter, butterscotch extract, butterscotch chips and Demerara sugar, you'd never guess these cookies made with ground pecans and flax were also gluten free and eggless!
Sure, it's a bit of a carb fest - potatoes on pizza! - but you can't beat the incredible flavour you get from a simple, crispy crust, topped with roasted garlic, onions and chevre, not to mention three types (and colours) of potato!
This is a delicious, moist sweet pumpkin-based cornbread - good to serve with a spicy chili or bean dish or have for breakfast with a dab of jam. Adapted from NourishingMeals.com
The recipe for one of my dad's all-time favourite pudding. Sunny yellow (but not off-putting) and a blend of sweetness and flavour that puts instant mixes to shame!
Flavourful and tender marinaded lamb chops grilled to perfection. Would be great alongside a couscous or rice pilaf!
Grilled veggies and marinated tofu paired up with fragrant, healthy brown rice makes this a bowl perfect for anybody's beachy ambitions... any time of year! Perfect hot from the grill or room temperature.
Adapted from Amanda Knauer. These gnocchi hold together best when well-chilled and sauteed before being tossed with sauce instead of being boiled. Bake the potatoes in their skins, peel and run them through a ricer for the smoothest gnocchi, and feel free to mix in your favourite seasonings too (I like a bit of paprika, garlic powder and oregano). Makes about 80 gnocchi, 4 main course servings
A spicy, slightly sweet and definitely nutty snack that's perfect for those with dairy, egg and gluten intolerances... as well as those who love them! If soy is a concern, hemp milk or almond milk (use unsweetened for best results) are great swaps too.

What started as her one "sweet treat" on a diet turned into an obsession that everyone who tries it craves! With the combination of Greek yoghurt, unsweetened cocoa, vanilla stevia and a few spoonfuls of jam, it tastes just as good as it is for your body!
This is hands-down my favourite vanilla frosting recipe - it is decadently butter-rich, not too sweet and is stable enough to stand out at a party for a few hours without melting. My picky sister gave it her seal of approval too!
This sweet, spicy and tangy dip tastes deceivingly like ketchup - but surprise! There are zero tomato products involved.

My mom loves mulligatawny - a thick curry soup with the unusual addition of apple. I used leftover turkey instead of chicken, and thickened the works with lentils and rice too. A finishing dash of cilantro and lemon juice lightens up the flavours.
