GF Sweet Potato Pancakes

It's that time of year when kids head back to school and mornings get even busier. These pancakes sneak in an extra serving of vegetables and are a delicious way to start the day. Or make them for dinner - breakfast for dinner is always a hit at our house.

GF Buttermilk Ricotta Pancakes

GF Baked Buttermilk Apple Pie Donuts

GF Elvis Pancakes

Inspired by Elvis’s favorite sandwich cravings… but in pancake form! This is a great way to use up bananas that are overripe or partially eaten by picky kids.

GF Cherry Lime Sweet Bread

This sweet bread is a cross between cake and a quick bread. Enjoy a slice with a cup of tea.

GF Milky Way Cake

Editors’ note: many thanks to Cheryl Doyle Ruffing for pointing out that ONLY the Simply Caramel Bars are appropriate for this recipe. Regular Milky Way bars are NOT gluten free!!!! Product ingredients often change, so you need to consult Mars company any time you want to make this recipe to ensure the candy bars you want to use are still gluten free.

GF Banana-Blueberry Muffins

Check out this updated Better Batter recipe! These soft, flavorful muffins get their sweetness from very ripe bananas and fresh blueberries - no extra sugar added! Want a vegan alternative? Look in the directions for how to substitute flaxseed for eggs.

GF Italian Sliders

These sweet little slider burgers are a taste of Little Italy! Grill them tonight and put on top of the yummiest, tastes-like gluten-y rolls (see recipe link below) along with sauteed onions and peppers. These would be great for a crowd or a hungry family. Bake the rolls ahead of time and take this recipe with you on your next camping trip. If you have been searching for a delicious, 'tastes-like-regular' hamburger roll, look no further. Check out the link below for a recipe for a roll that is a perfect companion to these Italian sliders. There are some special ingredients needed to make these yeast rolls, but it is well worth it. My gluten-eating palate cannot taste the gluten free difference. These are best eaten then day they are baked. Give them a try! For the slider rolls: 1 recipe of No Rise Gluten Free Yeast Rolls from Gluten Free On A Shoestring (plan ahead! Special ingredients include whey protein isolate and Expandex modified tapioca starch which can be purchased at a local health food store on online at Amazon)

GF Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

GF Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Packed with apples and warm cinnamon flavors, these tender and sweet muffins are perfect for a breakfast or snack. Bake up some mini muffins for bite-sized treats.

GF Banana Apple Oat Bread

GF Spinach Breakfast Bites

My husband first ate these spinach bites at a potluck and loved the savory flavors so much that he immediately requested the recipe from my friend who brought them to the party. He eats them for breakfast alongside a cup of coffee instead of his usual veggie omelette, but I can see these being on the menu as a brunch item or make them ahead and serve with a salad for a light lunch.

GF Lemon Poppyseed Muffins

I adore all things lemon and these sweet muffins pack a punch of delicious, tart lemon flavor. The yogurt used in these muffins helps yield a soft, tender crumb. Guild the lily by drizzle on the lemon icing for a special brunch or maybe just for a Monday morning breakfast.

GF Bagels

Who doesn't love homemade bagels? These are a snap to make and are ready in less than an hour - and smelly heavenly right out of the oven. Smear with your favorite bagel topping or use as the bread in a sandwich.
