Pumpkin Blondies

October 15, 2021 by Erica 6 Comments

I highly recommend adding pumpkin and squash purée into baked recipes. It lends sweetness and moisture, and can be used to replace some or all of another ingredient. This recipe is based on my popular recipe for blondies, found on my site and in one of my cookbooks. I reduced a bit of the almond butter and …

Thai Coleslaw

April 25, 2021 by Erica Leave a Comment

When I’m craving something sweet and healthy, I often turn to my Thai dressing and this salad mix. I vary it somewhat from time to time, and I’ll toss in any leftover lettuce or other greens and veggies, but this is basically what I chop and mix together for the coleslaw base. Then I whip …

Thai Dipping Sauce & Dressing

July 12, 2020 by Erica 8 Comments

Thai Sauce & Marinade

I’d like to introduce you to my favorite Thai sauce, and in my opinion the best Thai sauce. It’s packed with vitamin C, folate, and potassium, and uses fresh ingredients you may already have on hand. I avoid soy sauce and other processed ingredients in favor of natural juices, sweeteners, nut butter, and salt. I …

Almond Toffee Brownies {grain free}

February 16, 2019 by Erica 27 Comments

Almond Toffee Brownies

One of the things I love about creating recipes is all the additions and changes that readers suggest. I feel equally happy about recipe testing and happy accidents. When a reader, Bhavna, told me about adding a cup of coffee to my blondies recipe, I immediately thought I need to try that! I only had …

Peanut Butter & Jelly Cupcakes

September 11, 2018 by Erica 4 Comments

PB&J Cupcakes

There was a period of time where one of my boys lived on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. It’s likely one could live on these cupcakes for a few days, if necessary. I speak from experience. I really just wanted to have some fun with the nut butter cream frosting I created, and I love …

Nut Butter Cream Frosting

September 10, 2018 by Erica 14 Comments

Nut butter cream frosting

This nut butter cream frosting is decadent. Which is why it has a post all to itself. I was going to call it “nut butter frosting” but it’s definitely a level above frosting due to the butter component, making it more like butter cream frosting. And any nut butter will work with this frosting. If …
