I wanted to make a bar recipe where it would have a decent amount of protein just by including natural ingredient. It is vegan and gluten free! It’s also an easy carry on snack if you are doing an outing or if you want an healthy snack to fill you up when your stomach cries … Continue reading

Blueberry and chocolate pancakes
Sometimes, on weekend morning, we have a more elaborate breakfast. Last weekend, I decided to add some variety to the pancake recipe I usually make. There are also so many gluten free flours, it’s so nice to play with them. They all have their characteristic. I find buckwheat flour is a great substitute for whole … Continue reading
My “Fruit salad” muffins
Sunday afternoon, it’s actually pretty windy with flurries after the rain we had on Saturday. The kids had their ski lessons so we had no other choice than to go to the mountain. I could say we were “wet”. But it was rather comfortable. It would have been nicer without all this water but they … Continue reading
Vegan chewy molasses cookies
Last weekend, after our snowstorm, we put on our snowshoes and went to get our Christmas tree in the woods. It is not a perfect one, but it comes from the nature. The kids love this tradition we started a few years ago and now they count the day before we go and cut it. … Continue reading
Vegan buckwheat pancake

This recipe is so easy to make and very quick too. You can easily carry them for an outing or in a lunchbox. They are sugar … Continue reading
Banana dates loaf cake
“This is amazingly gooood” were the words my daughter said when she had the cake for dessert yesterday. Of course, the fact that it was coming out of the oven really helped. The chocolate was melted and the cake was still a bit warm. I haven’t been cooking much this summer, I never do in … Continue reading
Gluten free banana muffins
I find it sometimes hard to get the good combination of flours when I bake with something else than wheat. Sometimes the result is dryer or harder, but these muffins are soft and tasty. Preparation time: 10 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes For 12 muffins 1/2 cup (125ml) of quinoa flour 1/2 cup (125ml) of … Continue reading
Banana molasses chewy cookies
I was looking for cookies that could replace store bought ones I usually got every week and the most important, fresh and healthier. Industrial food usually looks for inexpensive ingredients that is also lower in quality. In this case I used “blackstrap molasses”, it is higher in iron. In this case it meets 15.3% of … Continue reading
