Chocolate Chip Miso Cookies (GF) (DF)

Two things I never would have thought to put together. Chocolate chip cookies and Miso! I mean?!? Who would’ve thought?!?

But, because I love and trust Candice Kumai and loved her book so much I decided to give it a try - just made a few edits for my own dietary preferences - however I’m sure these are perfectly amazing as is! But you’ll have to get the book for that version in Kintsugi Wellness

Fudgy GF Chocolate Chip Cookies

It’s all about the fudginess of the cookies. I mean who doesn’t like a half cooked cookie with the doughy center? Come on! The absolute dream cookie! Am I right?!? The trick is the consistency in the beginning. This is where you really want to pay attention to the amount of almond milk. You may want to add more if needed. The batter should be fudgy and sticky. Not runny. Not dry. Fuggy. That’s exactly how your cookies will turn out so pay attention here!

Apple Cinnamon Granola with Comparisons to Store Bought!

I absolutely love making my own granola! I did a presentation last week on healthy snacks on-the-go and I wasn’t surprised at all to see the amount of sugar found in these little healthy gems! This one is actually one of the many reasons why I started making my own because I always got a sugar high and before I knew it polished off an entire bag! This defeats the purpose of granola in the first place!

First, let’s discuss the granola that’s out there. It comes in many forms and you can really buy so many varieties its ridiculous. This is a highly saturated market from gluten free, to paleo, to grain free, to nut free, to really anything you want. Marketing is all about labels and you absolutely have to look at the ingredients and nut trust labels.

Paleo Blueberry Pumpkin Seed Muffins

This recipe was inspired by my favorite coffee shop that serves the most amazing blueberry muffin.  I go there a few days a week to work and they have the absolute best cappuccino ever - strong and smooth - and I always get their paleo muffin.  Its a perfect blend of light and fluffy, tasty, blueberry filled, a bit of crunch and very filling!   I would eat one of these and be satisfied for at least 3-4 hours which if you know me, is quite a feat!  So after paying $4 for my favorite muffin several times and carefully studyihg each bite, I decided to give it a try and make it myself!

Strawberry Lemon Breakfast Bake

This recipe came out of nowhere.  I was in the mood for something refreshing like strawberry and lemon combination sounded delightful.  I also LOVE bakes so I really wanted to pair something in a form of a bake with these two flavors. 

I started looking at a ton of recipes - which I normally do to get inspiration.  Then I looked at what ingredients my mom had at her house.  I pulled out chia, hemp seeds, bananas, plant protein, oats, honey, coconut oil and she also had some eggs and I picked up fresh strawberries, lemons and eggs.  With that I figured I could some up with something so I just started mixing.  Meanwhile, my sister decided to sit and watch - with much anticipation I might add as well as some disbelief I could even make this work!
