    Salads

    Here, you'll find flavor-packed and colorful salads that are delicious for lunch or dinner.

    This quinoa and cucumber salad has feta, mint, and dill, and is perfect for meal prep. Or, try out this herbed kale salad with persimmon, or this apple and chicory salad — both have a punch of flavor and go beyond your typical salad! I also love this vegetarian cobb salad topped with grilled tofu, and this peach panzanella.

    This gluten-free Basque-style burnt cheesecake has This gluten-free Basque-style burnt cheesecake has a secret ingredient: Vermont Creamery fresh goat cheese! It adds a bright, tangy flavor and velvety texture. 

Think crème brulee meets cheesecake. Break through the caramelized sugar crust to the creamy center that’s light and airy like a cloud, yet rich and dense at the same time. 

Basque-style cheesecake has no crust, but a high oven temperature browns the outer edges to keep slices intact. Use sweet rice flour to make it gluten-free if you like!

    Gluten-free cherry clafoutis 🍒 This is the des Gluten-free cherry clafoutis 🍒

This is the dessert I make every year when cherries come into season in early summer! 

Cherries soaked in a little brandy (or GF whiskey) dot a vanilla-scented almond flour batter. Together they bake into a silky custard that's somewhere between a dutch baby and pudding cake in texture. 

Whip up this simply sublime cherry dessert and you'll understand why it's a French classic. 

Bojon appètit, friends!

    Gluten-Free #treslechescake (DF option) Last week Gluten-Free #treslechescake (DF option)

Last week I shared my favorite gluten-free sponge cake recipe, and here's another fun way to use it. Add an extra egg white to the batter and soak the cake with sweet milks (or coconut milks) for a gluten-free (and optionally dairy-free) riff on the beloved Latin-American sweet. 

I developed the gluteny version of this recipe during my years as a pastry chef at a Latin-American restaurant here in SF. I would bake the cake in a large hotel pan, cut out rounds to make individual cakes for plating, and promptly devour all the cake scraps. 

While I don't recommend having cake for lunch, I do recommend whipping up a tres leches cake for your next gathering. They're brilliant for parties because they can be made a day or two ahead and refrigerated until ready to serve. 

Top slices with whipped cream (or whipped coconut cream) and fresh berries or, more traditionally, a layer of cinnamon sifted over the top. Creamy, comforting deliciousness. 

The last shot is the coconut flour tres leches cake from #alternativebakerbook topped with lime-kissed mango. So fresh!

    As blueberries come into season here in California As blueberries come into season here in California, I've been dreaming about this gluten-free blueberry coffee cake. It's moist and tender, layered with jammy fruit and an addictively salty-sweet streusel topping. 

Oat flour, sorghum flour, and sweet rice flour build a moist and flavorful cake, and almond flour in the topping helps the streusel hold together. 

It would be an ideal addition to weekend brunch or potlucks, and it takes well to variations. I've made it with rhubarb instead of berries, for instance - so good!

Here are a few things readers have said about this cake:

"Better than any gluten-full coffee cake I ever had. This recipe is a keeper. THANK YOU!!" 

"So this is the best coffee cake I’ve ever had, GF or otherwise! Another genius recipe!"

"This was such a hit last night served as a dinner dessert. People were having seconds and thirds! It was absolutely delicious, fluffy and moist and flavorful with a crunch from the pecans on top." 

"This coffee cake is so good - a light, tender crumb and with a pleasant touch of lemon. If I didn’t know it was gluten free I wouldn’t even suspect so."

    Gluten-free sponge cake is so easy to make. This a Gluten-free sponge cake is so easy to make. This airy cake can be turned into #victoriaspongecake, tiramisu, tres leches, or layered with your favorite frosting and toppings. 

This version with whipped mascarpone, berry chia jam, and fresh berries was actually our wedding cake!

A trio of flours - millet, sweet rice, and oat - give the cake a mild, neutral flavor with a moist & springy crumb. 

The cake layers are naturally dairy-free and can be sweetened with maple syrup instead of sugar if you prefer.
