Strawberry Rhubarb Coffee Cake {Paleo + Gluten-free}

July 16, 2018 by Bethany 5 Comments

Take the classic pie combo to the next level with this Strawberry Rhubarb Coffee Cake! Made with coconut flour and a few other simple ingredients, it’s the perfect nourishing summer dessert!

“This post is sponsored by pacific foods, as always, the opinions stated are my own.”

Coming in hot with another dessert recipe today! No this is not a brownie, nor a blondie (we’ve been blowing up the blog with those lol) but a cake recipe because it was time for a change. And nope, it’s not a flourless recipe because I had coconut flour that needed to be used up so here we are.

This recipe was influenced by my dad’s favorite pie and the greatest pie flavor (in my opinion)of all……STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE! Does anyone know what rhubarb is good for besides pie? I honestly have no clue, but what I do know that it is a critical part of this pie!

For this coconut flour cake, I based it off of one of my Lemon Cranberry Cake recipe. If you are scared to bake with coconut flour, don’t be! It’s different from other flours (please don’t sub coconut flour one for one with another flour it will be a disaster lol) because it’s highly absorbent. That is why I added 3 eggs and a cup of Pacific Food‘s Cashew Vanilla Unsweetened Non-Dairy Beverage!

We have partnered with Pacific Foods for this recipe + recipe video becuase we share similar values when it comes to foods. Pacific Foods is all about nourishment, and so are we! The foods you are consuming should taste good and nourish your body at the same time<<<<<life motto right there.

This strawberry rhubarb coffee cake is so good that you’ll want it for breakfast, snack and dessert alike! It’s not hard to make either! Here is a video to showcase how easily you can make it:

Not too complicated right?? Now go ahead and make it!

April 21, 2018 by Bethany And Rachel 3 Comments

In the mood for muffins? Make these healthy Strawberry Tahini Crumb Muffins! They’re perfectly sweet without refined sugar. Also Paleo + Vegan friendly!

It’s been a super long time since I made muffins. We’re talking like early January when I made these Buckeye Brownie Banana Muffins, and that is NOT ok. Yes muffin tops have been made recently, but sometimes you just want the whole muffin.

Plus I was craving a bakery-style muffin, ya know, the ones with the crumb topping. Ahhhh the crumbs make it.

Who woulda thought that tahini and strawberries go together so well? It’s an interesting combo to say the least, but it works. If you’ve never had tahini before, you should totally try it because it’s amazing.

These muffins are unique, flavorful and sweet with no refined sugar what-so-ever. They’re pretty bomb in my opinion. Here is what you need:

almond flour

baking soda

tahini

apple sauce

egg or flax egg

maple syrup

strawberries

crumb topping

EASY Banana Split Oatmeal Bowl

August 29, 2016 by Bethany And Rachel 23 Comments

This healthy Banana Split Oatmeal is recipe that you can eat for BOTH breakfast and dessert! Very easy-to-make and gluten-free & vegan!

If you can’t tell, we really like banana split flavored things…

This healthy Banana Split Dessert Oatmeal is recipe that you can eat for BOTH breakfast and dessert! Very easy-to-make and gluten-free & vegan!

“Thanks to Good Food Made Simple for kindly sponsoring this post. As always, all opinions stated are my own.”

Like these breakfast cookies, This breakfast bowl and these dessert wontons. It’s an obsession. I mean, who doesn’t like strawberries, bananas, chocolate and walnuts into one perfect little dessert?

No complaining here. Now this Banana Split dessert bowl is something that I wanted to create for a long time.

It’s unique because it contains something that isn’t typically considered dessert…..Oatmeal. Yes I know what you’re thinking, I thought oatmeal was for breakfast, and yes, it is, but if you’ve never tried oatmeal for dessert, you are missing out BIG TIME!

Truth is, you can eat this oatmeal for BOTH meals!

This oatmeal dessert bowl is easy peasy thanks to the main ingredient, Good Food Made Simple Steel Cut Oatmeal. Now, if you’ve ever cooked steel cut oatmeal, you know how much better it tastes than old fashioned but you also know that it takes 5x longer to prepare which can be a pain.

Good Food Made Simple makes steel cut oatmeal hassle free with their steel cut oats already in single serving frozen packets. So all you need to do is take it out of the packaging and microwave and voila, your thick, nutty oatmeal is ready in only a few minutes.

Not only are these steel cut oats even more delicious and easier to make than traditional steel cut oats, but they are also completely natural with nothing added to enhance the flavors and nutritiously whole grain.

They come in three flavors, Fruit & Berries, Organic Unsweetened Natural and Organic Vermont Maple, all of them being 150-200 calories and packed with nutrition. You can read more about Good Food Made Simple and their ingredients HERE.

Banana Split Dessert Oatmeal Bowl

Now back to this beauty. This Dessert Bowl redefines what dessert means. It’s completely healthy, satisfying, and most importantly delicious made with hearty steel cut oats, strawberries, bananas, walnuts and dark chocolate. It’s also vegan and gluten-free friendly!

The BEST Roasted Strawberry Skillet Chocolate Chip Cookie {Paleo + Vegan option}

August 14, 2016 by Bethany And Rachel 45 Comments

Do you love cookies? You’ll swoon over this Paleo Roasted Strawberry Skillet Choco-chip Cookie! You only need one bowl and 8 ingredients! {Vegan option}

I believe that everything that’s bigger is better. Now this might not be true for all things, but it certainly holds true for baked goods. Why have a small blueberry muffin when you can have a giant Costco-sized one? Why have a small cookie when you can make one huge one? My point exactly.

I think we can all agree that pretty much everyone on the face on the earth enjoys cookies, chocolate chip to be exact. They are like the little black dress of the baking world, never seems to go out of style.

But when you ask people if they like healthy cookies, they usually turn their nose up in disgust. Yes I get it, cookies were designed to be a not-good-for-you-once-in-a-while-treat but can we break that mold for a quick minute?

Mainly because I need to justify to the fact that I NEED dessert every night, and I can’t fathom the thought of having it as a once-in-a-while-treat.

So thankfully I made this giant skillet cookie as healthy as possible, but you would never tell by the taste. I used Honeyville blanched almond flour to help create a fluffy texture and a great taste while keeping the recipe gluten-free and grain-free.

If you are an avid baker who desires to eat healthier but still wants to make your favorite sweets, I highly suggest baking with Honeyville Blanched Almond Flour.

Not only is it high in protein (6 grams per serving), but it is rich in calcium, contains heart healthy fats and is the perfect sub for all-purpose flour! Don’t believe me? Try it for yo self.

Back to the skillet cookie because I know your mouth is drooling…..

Only one bowl + 8 ingredients are needed for this delight:

Roasted Strawberries

Honeyville Blanched Almond Flour

Cashew OR almond butter

Egg or flax egg

Vanilla

Baking Soda

Chocolate Chunks

+ Vanilla Ice Cream (optional, but not really😜)

Roasted Strawberry Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie

Roasted strawberries and chocolate chunks are mixed into a fluffy giant cookie that is made with all-natural, healthy ingredients! It’s hard to believe that this mouth-watering dessert is gluten-free, grain-free, paleo friendly and vegan friendly!

1/2 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven at 350 degrees
Place strawberries on a cookie sheet and roast for 10 minutes, or until strawberries are oozing with juice, let cool,
Combine Almond butter, flour, egg, maple syrup, baking soda and vanilla in a large bowl, mix well, and stir in chocolate chunks and strawberries.
spray a cast iron skillet with cooking spray and spoon in batter.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until done.

Now that I’m home for the summer, it means less oatmeal for breakfast and more creative breakfast ideas. I’m not complaining though, cause y’all know that love getting my creative juices flowing, and I also love a good breakfast! Who doesn’t? My point exactly.

Fruit is great for breakfast, but so are muffins. And chocolate chunks. And jars. Jars? Yea, they make breakfast portable and super duper cute. So like, breakfast in a jar that’s not oatmeal? Can I get a HECK YAS!?

You will SWOON over the strawberry-banana-chocolate combo (oh hello banana split) while your sippin’ your morning latte. The best part is that the chocolate is still melty and gooey and when you dip your spoon in, its pretty magical.

It’s also incredibly filling and full of healthy ingredients and can double as a dessert. Genius right? Yeah…..

We were figuring out what to make for the blogiversary, and it hit us that we have never made a banana bread version of our favorite kind of recipe. Like how did we miss that? Banana bread is the BEST kind of bread ever? #amirightoramright?

So of course we had to make this banana bread version and top it will ALL the toppings for this special celebration! This is actually our favorite breakfast/dessert pizza of all-time, well so far anyways…

Unlike the other sweet pizzas we’ve made, this one serves 2, not 1 but it’s a GIANT serving for two people, so more pizza=more fun. You can honestly eat it for any meal because it’s that good and good for ya.

We split it for our birthday breakfast but wished that we made another one for that day because we loved it so much and wanted it for dessert.

This Pizza’s got three fantastic layers that will make you swoon:

Strawberry cream cheese frosting

Toppings consisting of sliced fruit, nuts and CHOCOLATE

Sometimes my mind is swirling around with 57,000 recipe ideas with over-complicated flavor combos and instructions. But guess what? None of those recipes that I sometimes think that are a good idea never even make it on the blog.

Gluten-free Roasted Strawberry and Toasted Coconut Scones

February 3, 2016 by Bethany And Rachel 56 Comments

These Roasted Strawberry and Toasted Coconut Gluten-free Scones are so fluffy and delicious that you would never guess that they are made without butter and are completely vegan! Serve these with coffee or tea for a tasty breakfast or brunch!

I want to start this post off with a serious question. What exactly are scones? Are they just dressed up biscuits or just fluffy-single serving cakes?

I am confused about what they actually are, but that really doesn’t matter. Scones are delicious, sweet and just perfect in their own unusual way. The world may never know what scones really are, but it’s a beautiful mystery.

This brings up another question that I always get confused about. Since dolphins are considered whales, why aren’t whales considered dolphins? Ok sorry, a little off topic that time. Besides the point, who wouldn’t want a scone for breakfast?

I actually feel sophisticated when I eat a scone because I pretend I’m at a British tea party wearing a formal dress. Then I remember that I hate wearing dresses and continue to eat my scone and sip my tea(pinky up) in sweatpants looking like I got hit by a train #judgeme.

When I was looking for a recipe to adapt from, almost all recipes included tons of butter. I’m not against the golden spread, but I wanted to make these vegan for all my vegan homies out there (holla!). I finally came across this recipe that included only a little bit of melted coconut oil.

Who says scones are always full of fat and sugar? Not I, my friend! These babies are gluten-free, vegan-friendly and refined sugar-free! Roasting the strawberries brings out the sweet flavor even more and the addition of the toasted coconut is dynamite!

These scones are also perfect for valentines day to serve to your sweetie for breakfast<3

Roasted Strawberry and Toasted Coconut Gluten-free Scones

Print Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups gluten-free flour (I like this one
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil melted
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup hot water
1 1/2 cup whole strawberries
1/2 cup toasted coconut

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Place strawberries on a cooking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20 minutes until roasted, set aside.
Combine flour, baking powder and cinnamon in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla. Mash roasted strawberries into mixture.
Add wet mixture to dry ingredients and stir well (batter will be dry). Add hot water to mixture and mix until all ingredients are completely combined. Add in toasted coconut and mix well.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place parchment paper on a cooking sheet and drop batter by 1/3 cup measurements. Round edges with fingers so they are shaped like scones (or big cookies).
Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden.
Enjoy!

My dad always tries to give me pointers when I brainstorm for different and unique recipe ideas. Im always like, dad what should I make? He always replies “make something good.” Thanks dad, your so helpful (I hope this Frozen Greek Yogurt Bark is GOOD ENOUGH for him lol).

Truth be told, my dad isn’t the best taste tester because he likes everything. He even ate my dog’s treat because he thought it tasted good. I feel bad for my dog, every time we get here a treat my dad thinks its a cookie and eats almost all of it.

caught red-handed

Alright I got a little off topic, but what I wanted to address is that my dad is open to eat anything #perksofahealthyfoodblogger . He always searches for snacks he can eat when he isn’t hungry (yes, when he is NOT hungry). So I always try to come up with snacks that are tasty, yet healthy in disguise.

PB&J Frozen Greek Yogurt Bark

The greek yogurt is super high in protein and is a perfect match when paired with the healthy fats in the peanut butter. The flavor combo is a classic and will please any folk!
