Hi ladies!!
Okay – is it just me, or do you go through phases where you’re totally into a certain type of food? For me it’s usually seasonal. This summer I was into all things Smoothie, Açaí and Overnight Oats.
Then literally the second it turned into fall – I’ve been all about “breads!” Gluten-Free and No Added-Sugar, of course. I haven’t gone that kray.
A couple weeks ago, it was Banana Bread, last week I made the most deelish Apple Cinnamon Cake with Pecans that was so flippin’ good, Oliver and I polished it off in a day. Ugh. I made one for my parents also, and…..same result. A day later – it was gone girl.
This week, it’s this Lemon-Blueberry Brunch Bread! A Healthier Option when you’re in the mood for Brunch or just want a little sweet treat around the house! Made with freshly grated lemon zest, lemon juice and anti-oxidant rich blueberries – it is addicting!
Baking Pan
Gluten-Free Flour
Erythritol
Coconut Oil
Vanilla Extract
Zester
Pink Mitts
Made healthier with Coconut Oil, Greek Yogurt, Gluten-Free Flour & a No-Sugar Substitute, it’s the perfect Brunch Bread!
Of course, any recipe that I bring you will always fall into 1 of 2 categories:
- Healthy: Nutritionally beneficial & good for you. These are recipes that are high in vitamins, minerals, fiber, anti-oxidants, good fats – and are very good to add to your daily diet. This usually accounts for 90% of the recipes.
- Healthier Option: These are “treats” that would normally have refined sugar, flour, trans or saturated fats (like baked goods). Instead, we’ll take classic favorites and use gluten-free flours, no-sugar substitutes & plant-based oils – resulting in a healthier option for times when ya just want a treat but still want to be kinder to your beautiful body!
Easy & Takes Less than 10-Min to Prep
This falls into the Healthier Option category. Super easy to make, I whipped it up in less than 10-minutes, then threw it in the oven for an hour while I walked the dogs. The entire house smelled warm and lemon-y!
11 simple ingredients that you probably already have in your fridge & pantry. Oh – be sure to spray the pan with cooking spray and dust it with some of the gluten-free flour. Don’t skip the flour-dusting step – you don’t want a hot mess on your hands :-/
Fresh lemon zest, a squeeze of juice and anti-oxidant rich blueberries will make ya swoon. It is SO good!
