Coconut Flour Chocolate Chip “Mini” Pound Cakes

These little pound cakes are a great grain-free treat, perfect for Easter celebration or anytime. They are made with naturally sweet coconut flour, filled with shredded coconut, and kissed with chocolate chips. My kids especially love these little loaves…. their words exactly, “They’re yummy!” :)

Coconut Flour German Chocolate Muffins

These chocolate muffins are made with coconut flour, which is very nutritious. Coconut flour is made from the meat of the coconut so it has a slightly sweet taste already, meaning you can use less sugar in your recipes. These muffins are light and fluffy in texture and loaded with chocolaty flavor…….with the coconut-pecan topping, they remind you of a german chocolate cake except with out all the super-sugary icing.

This lemon cake is simple enough to serve as an ordinary weeknight dessert, but extravagant enough to serve at a party or special event. The honey-lemon glaze really makes this cake just come alive with lemony flavor. Spelt is used in this cake to give it that whole-grain goodness, while making for a moist, dense, and rich cake. Serve this cake with fresh raspberries or sliced fresh strawberries for a delightful treat. And don’t forget a cup of tea!

I love cheesecake! This one is lightly sweetened with honey and stevia. Top with the delightful fresh blueberry sauce, and it is really out-of-this-world! The cheesecake is very easy to make…no special equipment needed here, like a water bath, special pan, or magic wand. Just bake it in a regular pie pan for about 30 minutes.
