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 …
Cheesecake Brownies {coconut flour}
A few readers asked me for this recipe, and I am most happy to oblige. It might be a bit early for brownies in some parts of the world, but what the heck. And really, it’s always a good time for brownies. I don’t have much desire to cook or bake during the summer, so …
Chocolate Zucchini Bread {almond flour}
Zucchini is one of those vegetables that grows like crazy in the summer. And it’s easy to grow. And chocolate is, well, wonderful any time of year.

Fudge Popsicles {dairy free}
Fudge popsicles remind me of hot summer camp days, merry-go-rounds, and city parks (I grew up in New York City). When I went to camp, counselors handed these pops out in record time (but not fast enough), while we sat patiently in the grass, sweat dripping down our faces. I couldn’t get the wrapper off …
Chocolate Donuts & Cupcakes {almond & buckwheat flour}
My family loves donuts, but basically I refuse to buy them. Hence this recipe for chocolate donuts and cupcakes. I have used buckwheat flour and almond flour for this recipe, and both work well.
