Blueberry Lemon Yogurt Cake

This delicious, lemony yogurt cake is studded with blueberries. It’s made with healthy whole wheat flour, olive oil and yogurt and tastes amazing, I promise! This cake takes cues from traditional French yogurt cake and tastes like a lightened-up pound cake. Recipe yields one loaf.

Peanut Butter and Honey Ice Cream

Creamy, dairy-free peanut butter and honey ice cream made with coconut milk instead of cow’s milk. This ice cream is rich, delicious and easy to make! Remember to put the bowl of your ice cream maker in the freezer at least one day in advance. The recipe yields a little less than 1.5 quarts of ice cream.

Course

Honey Almond Cake with Raspberries, Orange and Pistachios

Super simple, moist and delicious almond meal and honey cake! This cake is gluten free and paleo friendly. Feel free to change up the flavors (see notes on how to do so). I think a lemon blueberry version would be delicious.

Roasted Strawberry Rhubarb and Yogurt Parfaits

Roasted, honey-sweetened strawberries and rhubarb yield a delightfully sweet and tart sauce. You swirl the sauce into yogurt, oatmeal and milkshakes. The warm sauce would be a killer topping for ice cream, cheesecake or toast.

Brownies

Rich, dark, chewy and fudgy brownies made from scratch. These brownies are flavored with cocoa powder and brown butter and feature a beautifully swirled, flaky top. I don’t dare make claims like this very often, but this is the very best brownie recipe!

Course

Blueberry Frozen Yogurt

This tangy, honey-sweetened lemon blueberry frozen yogurt is a delightful summer treat. Use full fat yogurt for the best texture, and buy organic berries and lemon if you can.

Course

Orange Poppy Seed Pound Cake

Lightened-up orange poppy seed pound cake cheers up chilly days. Made with whole wheat pastry flour, olive oil and yogurt, this pound cake is healthier than most. Serve slices as is, or add a scoop of ice cream for dessert or yogurt for breakfast.

Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

This gluten-free chocolate chip cookie recipe is naturally sweetened and made with almond meal and coconut flour. These cookies remind me of classic Tollhouse cookies, but much healthier and easier to make—only one bowl required! Recipe yields 24 small cookies.
