The Basics of Clean Eating and Baking For the purposes of this book, the treat recipes avoid ingredients that are highly processed; meaning, that they are so far from nature that they lack any nutrition. This includes ready-made mixes and items with preservative-filled, mystery ingredients. When it comes to using a sweetener for the treats in this cookbook, I’ve chosen to test and create recipes with honey, maple syrup, and coconut palm sugar. Coconut sugar also contains zinc and calcium, plus antioxidants and probiotics. So, for these reasons, along with the fact that it’s unrefined, I’ve chosen it as the replacement for granulated (white and brown) sugar in this cookbook; it’s my favorite clean sweetener to use. This is not a sugar-free cookbook, however. It’s a desserts cookbook that includes recipes made with clean ingredients. Of course, ingredients will always vary by brand, such as the case with chocolate chips. So make sure to check the label whenever possible. When it comes to clean meals, it’s easy to follow a recipe and stick with a plan. The key word: plan. But when the craving for something sweet sets in, it’s tempting to grab a candy bar while waiting at the check-out line or to throw a box of cookies in the grocery cart. I hope the recipes in this cookbook help you avoid purchasing convenient, processed desserts while letting you enjoy a sweet treat from time to time with your family and friends. At a glance, you’ll know whether the recipe fits within your dietary restrictions. Gluten-free Dairy-free Egg-free Nut-free Vegan Cranberry Orange Muffins Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Nut-free These are my favorite muffins to make during the holidays when cranberries are abundant, and I go overly zealous in purchasing them. Since they store in the freezer for a long time, you’ll find me making a batch of these muffins also in mid-March (seriously). The fresh cranberries and fresh orange zest give these muffins the holiday flavors we all love, and their scent will fill your home. With a hearty texture, they are just the kind of muffin that I enjoy eating while I sip a cup of coffee. Lemon Bars Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Nut-free These lemon bars have a thick lemon filling over a sweet crust. They’re perfect for parties, family gatherings, and bake sales. Flourless Chocolate Cookies Gluten-free, Dairy-free My original “flourless” chocolate chip cookie can be found inside my cookbook The Best Grain-Free Meals on the Planet. This recipe was supposed to make it into that book, but after many rounds of testing, I ran out of time to make baking magic and saved it for later. This fudgy, cake-like cookie with crispy edges is one I’m happy to make when I want a simple, one-bowl recipe without flour. Matcha Green Tea Bites Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Egg-free If you enjoy matcha green tea, you’re going to love this portable, full of nutrition, bite-size option! Blueberry Cheesecake Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Egg-free Don’t let the no-bake method fool you. This cheesecake is just as good (or even better) than the laborious traditional recipe. With a creamy, smooth texture that takes over your taste buds without overpowering in sweetness, this cheesecake is bursting with blueberry flavor, thanks to the added pureed blueberries, making it a simple yet decadent dessert. Chocolate Fudge Pops Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Egg-free, Vegan My family loves these so much that they disappear faster than I can make them!
