I am so excited to share this recipe! I grew up eating a dessert my aunt made called Cranberry Crunch. It’s always been my favorite dessert. In fact, I love it so much I always have it on my birthday instead of a cake. I don’t like overly sweet treats, so the tartness of the cranberries is just perfect. We also always served it on Thanksgiving. So, this year I decided to revamp the recipe so we could enjoy it {Read More}

Macaroon Oatmeal 2 cups rolled oats3 cups Silk vanilla coconut milk1 cup flaked coconut1/2 cup dried cranberries Combine ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl over medium-low heat, {Read More}
These cupcakes are naturally sweet (so, no sugar added) and egg-free. Perfect for your baby’s first birthday cake smash! Happy’s first birthday is approaching, so I thought I’d better get a jump on coming up with a cake recipe for his celebration. When my 2 year old turned one I baked two cakes- one from scratch for him and all the other babies attending and one boxed mix cake for all the parents. I feared that the babies’ cake wouldn’t be sweet enough {Read More}
