The unthinkable happened. My food processor is temporarily out of commission. But I’m happy to let you know that I tested these chocolate zucchini muffins without any electrical gadgets with great success. I grated the zucchini using my hand-held metal grater and mixed all the ingredients together in a bowl with a fork. It was that …
Red Velvet Torte {flourless}
I’ve eaten so many beets this week, I’m peeing pink. For a good cause, of course. I wanted a recipe for a red velvet torte that is flourless and uses beets. This torte is moist, sweet and chocolatey. And dark red. I have a recipe for red velvet cupcakes using coconut flour in my coconut flour cookbook, …
Chocolate Cupcakes {almond flour}
I’ve been wanting to whip up a reliable chocolate cupcake recipe using almond flour.

Almond flour baked goods tend to be a bit heavier, but there are techniques to lighten them. Let me …

Chocolate Chip Scones {coconut flour}
My chocolate chip scones recipe appears in both my Healthy Coconut Flour Cookbook and my Everyday Keto Baking cookbook. These scones pair well with your morning cup of tea or coffee, but they are also a great on-the-run breakfast meal or snack. They are a bit on the lighter side, as far as scones go, …

My current banana ice cream habit would come to an abrupt halt if there was a banana shortage. But let’s think positive thoughts. This recipe makes the most satisfying chocolate soft ice cream. I think you’ll be amazed at how simple and easy it is to whip up. Sometimes I have it for breakfast and …
Fudge Brownies {coconut flour}
This recipe is new and improved to create a better fudge brownie. And all you need is 1 bowl, 6 ingredients, and 15 minutes to bake! You may be familiar with these brownies, which are more cake-like and still a favorite. But sometimes you just want something with a bit more. And I recognize there …
Chocolate Zucchini Bread {coconut flour}
How is your zucchini inventory at these days? Here’s my recipe for chocolate zucchini bread using coconut flour, which is in my Healthy Coconut Flour Cookbook.

Chocolate Cheesecake {dairy free}
I truly belong in a chocolate lovers support group. I few weeks ago I starting feeling a bit sick from eating too many raw brownie bites in order to keep me going on a crazy schedule and fill in for some missed lunches. I’ve successfully avoided chocolate with evaporated cane sugar, but I think I overdosed …
Peace Truffles
I wrapped up my holiday bark production a few days ago. There was the equivalent of about 15 pounds of chocolate in my kitchen, and that means a lot of sugar. For a chocolate lover like me, it can be a very dangerous place to be. But I held back, for the most part. That’s because I avoid …
Chocolate Macaroons
What do you get when you bring cocoa (cacao), coconut, and almonds together? In this case, very decadent chocolate macaroons. And while I’m not a huge consumer of shredded coconut, I enjoy a few macaroons every now and then, including these lemon, vanilla, chocolate-coated macaroons. I’ve been playing around with coconut oil and cocoa butter …
Date Walnut Brownies
The only reason I call these brownie bites is because they’re intoxicating, and therefore I suggest you savor these slowly and in small amounts to prevent any sudden overdose of enjoyment. This recipe is different from the gluten-free baked brownie recipes I’ve made in the past, not only because there’s no baking involved, but also …
