Gluten-free Apple Pie Bars
If you love apple pie, then you'll love these apple pie bars. These bars are made with a delicious shortbread crust that melts in your mouth. Next, the fresh apples are cooked down to be soft with classic fall flavors like butter and cinnamon. The crumb topping is the last addition to these bars, adding a sweet, buttery, delicate crunch that is just like a crumb pie topping.
These apple pie bars are great for a party or get-together because you can easily cut them into squares to serve a crowd. Besides being super easy to make, they're super delicious - whether you serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or even just plain!
THE BEST Gluten-free Texas Sheet Cake
It looks good, doesn't it? This is another recipe that I got from my mom. She LOVES chocolate and so do I. Maybe she passed her love of chocolate down 🤷🏻♀️. This cake is so moist and rich that it may become your favorite chocolate cake of all time. It mixes up fast and while it's baking you can gather all of your ingredients for the frosting. Then you pour that creamy, rich frosting right on top of the cake and let it cool until you cut it. It's so delicious that you'll want to keep sneaking small pieces every time you walk by it! It's perfect for parties, great to take to cookouts, and really, just perfect.
Gluten-free Blueberry Cake
It's almost blueberry season! 🫐 What an awesome time of the year. I am lucky enough to live 5 minutes away from a berry farm, so I can go pick berries whenever I need to. How great is that? My daughters and I usually go early in the morning before a crowd forms and fill our buckets to the top with the sweet, juicy berries. What a great way to start the day! Of course, all of these berries means it's time to bake something delicious. Today is the day for fresh blueberry cake!
This blueberry cake is an old family recipe that has been a huge favorite for many years. It didn't start out gluten-free, but after a little tweaking of ingredients, this blueberry cake can be enjoyed by everyone with a gluten allergy/intolerance. It's a perfectly sweet buttermilk cake that is jam-packed with fresh blueberries and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. To top it off there is a little drizzle of lemon glaze. It is truly a perfect spring/summer dessert. It's super easy to make and stays moist for days! This makes it really nice for picnics or cookouts. Just slice it up and you're ready to go.
Gluten-free Sweet Potato Brownie Bombs
Brownie lovers, unite! These sweet potato brownie bombs are heaven on earth. So moist, so fudgy, so chocolaty, so amazing. I know what you're thinking. "Sweet potato?!". Yes, sweet potato - they add natural sweetness and tons of moisture to keep these brownie bombs wonderfully moist and chewy. Of course, using sweet potatoes gives you an added boost of nutrition - a win-win! Also, just for your info, you don't taste the sweet potatoes at all. You don't even know they're there.
Another secret ingredient is peanut butter. We used peanut butter instead of butter or oil. It adds a subtle nutty flavor and helps keep these brownie bombs super fudgy. Plus, we threw in some semi-sweet chocolate chips because, well, why not? Last, but not least, these brownie bombs are topped with a smooth, creamy chocolate frosting. Pure chocolate heaven. When you try these brownie bombs you'll understand why we are so crazy about them - moist, fudgy, and pure chocolate bliss make these sweet potato brownie bombs one of our favorite treats.
Gluten-free Almond Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies
These delicious almond thumbprints are made with a mix of butter and shortening, which gives you the benefits of both. The great taste of butter along with a tender, lightly textured cookie resulting from the shortening. The almond flavoring in the icing pairs perfectly with the raspberry jam. These cookies are so yummy, it's hard to only eat one!
Gluten-free Cappuccino Brownies
These brownies are soooooo rich, fudgy, and dreamy! The thin layer of ganache on top gives them an extra element of fudginess that nobody can say "no" to. A tiny hint of cinnamon adds to that warm coffee flavor and makes it taste like you're actually drinking your favorite fancy coffee. I was adamant about having a dusting of cocoa powder on the very top, not only for the looks, but for the very slight bitterness to even further mimic the coffee flavor. So yummy.
Chocolate Buttercream
Chocolate cake topped with chocolate buttercream is one of my favorite desserts. Actually, it has been my birthday cake of choice for many years. There is nothing like homemade chocolate frosting on top of homemade chocolate cake. It's honestly a match made in heaven, for sure. This frosting is quick, easy, and pipes like a dream. Give this chocolate buttercream a try. I know you'll love it as much as I do.
Gluten-free Carrot Streusel Cake
This carrot cake recipe was my grandmother's. She used to make it in a large sheet pan and everyone loved it, so making this cake gluten free was a no-brainer for me. The brown sugar topping is delicious and perfect if you aren't a fan of icing. It is great with a steaming, hot cup of coffee in the morning...who doesn't love cake for breakfast.
This cake bakes up quickly and easily. I don't know about you, but this is the only carrot cake I know of that uses boiled and mashed carrots. I guess Grandma was a trendsetter. Once the carrots are ready, just mix up the batter, sprinkle on your glorious walnut topping, and drizzle with melted butter. Sweet cake perfection.
Gluten-free Soft Pumpkin Spice Cookies with Brown Sugar Icing

Gluten-free Boozy Chocolate Cherry Cordial Cookies
Chocolate and cherry - what a great combination...especially when you add booze into the mix! These delicious cookies have been in my family for many years. We make them every year for Christmas and they're always a hit. So, when my daughter and I decided to make these gluten-free we thought "Why not change them up a little bit?". Hellloooo, Southern Comfort! A little, red, sweet gem soaked in booze and maraschino cherry juice. Combine this with chocolate and you definitely have a winner on your hands. A fudgy, chocolate, boozy cordial cherry cookie.
Of course, if you don't want to soak the cherries in Southern Comfort you don't have to. You can keep them classic by using plain maraschino cherries and they'll still be insanely delicious. They'll be perfect for the kiddos to enjoy as well!
Gluten-free Chocolate Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies
Chocolate and raspberry are the perfect combination of flavors. These cookies are the perfect balance of the two. A delicate chocolate flavor that goes wonderfully with the sweet raspberry jam. I guess that's why these cookies are a must-have in my house during the holiday season. In fact, they are my daughter's favorite Christmas cookie as well as a huge crowd favorite. We usually end up needing to make a second batch for the holidays because the first batch gets devoured so quickly.
Along with being great for the holidays, these chocolate raspberry thumbprints are perfect any time of year. They are super simple to mix up and are baked in no time at all. So, whenever you need a chocolate-raspberry treat, whip up a batch of these cookies and enjoy.
