About Only Gluten Free Recipes

You can never have enough healthy, delicious, gluten-free muffin recipes. Extra light and moist, these grain-free muffins are made with poppy seeds and apples. I wanted to include poppy seeds in this recipe because these tiny seeds carry a lot of punch. They are a rich source of essential minerals such as calcium, iron and zinc; also, they pack plenty of fiber and protein. For flavour, I used cardamom a delicate Indian spice, and I lightly sweetened the muffin with maple syrup. The muffin turned out sooo good, you'd never guess this gluten-free muffin is on the healthier side. I promise this high protein, and high fiber muffin won't disappoint!

I am super excited about this so tasty and so different Indian flavoured vegan dish. In this recipe, I used tofu for the faux chicken which is coated with tandoori spices and baked, and the quinoa is made with chickpeas, carrots and peas all cooked in an Indian flavoured broth. This tandoori faux chicken quinoa bowl is so, so flavourful! To finish the dish, drizzle everything with plenty of fresh lemon juice and serve with tomatoes and or snap peas. If you are not a fan of quinoa, you will become one after you try this dish :-D  Quinoa is a gluten-free super seed high in protein and one of the few plant foods that contain sufficient amounts of all nine essential amino acids. It is also high in fiber, iron, potassium, calcium, magnesium, B vitamins, vitamin E, phosphorus, and various beneficial antioxidants. To your health! Have you visited my online store lately?

There is no wrong way to make vegetables the star of your next meal especially when there is cheese involved. Here is the most delicious gratin that is easy to whip up and is sure to please. Layers of zucchini, leeks and melted cheese lightly flavoured with bacon and caramelized onions make this into a winner all the way! The best part, this gluten-free recipe is super easy to make and is also keto friendly. Initially, I started to create this recipe as a side dish but this vegetable gratin can be easily served as a main with a light salad. I would describe this zucchini, leeks and bacon gratin as a hearty and comforting meal.

This is a silky banana mousse topped with fresh strawberries lightly coated in chocolate sauce. What inspired me to make this gluten-free dessert is my ripe bananas. Bananas can be used for many recipes like muffins, cakes or breakfast bread so why not a mousse? What I love about bananas is, they add natural sweetness, flavour and moisture to desserts so you can cut back on sweeteners and fats. By adding the strawberry chocolate sauce, this simple banana mousse becomes a dreamy lip smacking dessert. Last minute guests? No problem, this entire dessert takes only 10 minutes to make. Enjoy!

These gluten-free peanut butter chocolate chip cookies are sooo delicious! The cookie 🍪 will melt in your mouth and all you need is five ingredients for this recipe. Just imagine a cookie recipe without flour, doesn't this sound good? As a sweetener I used coconut sugar, you may ask why? Coconut sugar is low glycemic and unrefined, lower in fructose than cane sugar, agave or maple syrup, so a little better option to avoid the sugar spikes. This cookie is a high protein snack and smooth peanut butter has about 1 gram of fiber per one tablespoon. Moving on, not only this gluten-free peanut butter chocolate chip cookie will satisfy your sweet tooth, it will also supply you with energy. So after a workout or later in the day when you need a little pick me up this cookie works wonders. I have also made these cookies with almond butter and they are just as delicious. Enjoy! 😉 

With the temperatures soaring it is time to fire up the barbecue, and this means burgers and healthy salads especially potato salads. When it comes to burgers, there are many options, beef, steak, fish, chicken, turkey or vegan burger. 🍔 This means gluten-free hamburger buns! I wanted to create gluten-free buns that are soft and easy enough for anyone to make. Barbecues are all about casual dining, so the last thing you want to be doing is spending unnecessary time in the kitchen. This gluten-free hamburger bun recipe is easy, and the buns are outstanding. All you do is mix dry ingredients, add wet ingredients and using a mixer mix for one minute. Then shape into balls and let rise. That's it, easy recipe, and the buns are perfect! Enjoy!

Today I will share with you my favourite gluten-free crispy thin pizza crust recipe. Since my favourite gluten-free pizza is vegetarian, I made this into a vegetarian pizza, but feel free to add your favourite toppings.  I have also included a delicious pizza sauce recipe that is super simple to make. When making a gluten-free crispy pizza crust, it is essential to par-bake the crust before adding the toppings. To keep the topping flavours harmonized after I added the sauce, I sprinkled it with some of the cheese before adding other toppings. This makes a big difference in the taste and the texture outcome of the pizza. 🍕 And I always finish with cheese. By following these few steps, you will get that perfect crispy thin pizza crust, and the toppings will compliment each other instead of blending into one flavour. Give it a try and let me know what you think in the comments below. I always like to hear from you. 

When it comes to soups, Vietnamese beef pho has become very popular. Pho is a type of Vietnamese soup made with a clear deliciously flavoured broth, rice noodles, slices of meat and various toppings. Authentic pho takes anywhere from 6 to 10 hours to cook, this is why I chose the Instant Pot. To make a rich beef broth in an instant pot takes only 2 hours, and the exotic flavours are the same as cooking the broth the traditional method. When making beef pho you can use many different cuts of meat, like brisket, oxtails, or bones, but I chose the beef shank bone. By using the shank bone, there is a lot less fat, and the beef flavour is rich, making it an excellent choice for the pho. But the pho isn't complete without the various toppings and garnishes. To summarize, the best Vietnamese pho has a rich flavourful broth, rice noodles, toppings such as bean sprouts, snow peas, julienned carrots, bok choy, and mushrooms and garnishes like lime wedges, Thai basil and jalapeno peppers. Because Pho is served with rice noodles, this soup is also gluten-free. Enjoy!

Today I want to tell you about these gluten-free digestive cookies. They are nothing fancy but will satisfy your craving for a cookie. In this gluten-free cookie recipe, I added oats and sweet sorghum flour for extra protein and fiber. To sweeten them up, I used a little maple syrup. To seal the deal I drizzled melted chocolate over the cookies. The chocolate is optional, but it doesn't hurt to add chocolate to desserts. When I make the cookies, I only decorate some with chocolate and leave the others without it. Why are these gluten-free cookies different from most? It is because the cookies are not as sweet and you can serve them with cheese or other savoury toppings. Enjoy!

Let's talk about leftovers! I don't know about you, but I always have plenty of turkey leftovers and not enough gravy. Let's face it, turkey without gravy doesn't quite make it. So, the dish I was going to make had to be flavourful, and I still wanted to keep it simple. Because exotic flavours and noodles are my favourites, I decided to turn the turkey leftovers into a gluten-free Singapore style noodle dish. This means snow peas, mushrooms, bell peppers, carrots, rice vermicelli and spices such as curry, garlic and ginger and of course leftover turkey. What I love about this recipe, if you don't have turkey, you can use leftover chicken, pork or beef. Who said turkey leftovers have to be boring? Enjoy! 

There is no wrong way to serve a chocolate cake! But, the best way is with a pure chocolate glaze made from scratch. If you are a chocolate lover, you will love this gluten-free chocolate dessert not only because of how delicious it is but because it is healthier. This is a basic grain-free chocolate cake recipe, made with almond flour adding more protein and fiber, and as a sweetener, I used bananas with maple syrup eliminating refined sugar. What I love the most about this dessert is, all you taste is heavenly chocolate. This is a simple every day gluten-free chocolate dessert. To make this bundt cake extra special add vanilla bean ice cream or whipped cream with berries. Enjoy!

There is no better and easier gluten-free tortilla recipe than this. The tortillas taste is authentic, they are soft and easily folded. When I decided to create this gluten-free tortilla recipe, I also wanted the tortilla to be healthy. I used millet, and chickpea flour both are enriched with the goodness of nature. They are an excellent source of fiber, iron, protein, calcium zinc and minerals. It is the millet flour that adds that authentic flavour and makes these into perfect gluten-free tortillas. Did I mention that all you need is 3 ingredients plus salt and water and no oil? How wonderful is that :-) I hope you enjoy them as much as my family does. You can use them for a quesadilla, soft taco, pizza, wrap, burrito or make them into chips for dips. Enjoy!

These gluten-free savoury mini scones are pretty special and sure to please. They are made with Manchego cheese, caramelized red pepper and onions flavoured with chili pepper. I can say they have a subtle Spanish flavour. When it comes to cheese, and savoury baking Manchego cheese is my favourite. The cheese has a buttery, nutty flavour with slight piquancy and melts beautifully. I love to serve these scones as a starter with a salad or as an appetizer because they are small and you can top them with just about anything like avocado, smoked salmon, ham, eggs, tomatoes the list is endless. My favourite way to serve these mini scones is as burger sliders because of their size and flavour. These gluten-free scones have a light texture, and they are best when freshly baked. For any leftovers, I reheat them in an oven at 375 F for 5 minutes, they come out just as if they were freshly baked. On a side note; I would like to share my favourite gluten-free cookbook selection

Matzo also called Matzah ball soup is served on the Jewish holiday of Passover. The soup is traditionally chicken soup which is served with Jewish dumplings called matzo balls. Matzo balls can either be incredibly bland or the ultimate addition to chicken soup. When I was creating this gluten-free matzo ball recipe I wanted to have a lot of flavours, so I added herbs, garlic, ginger and nutmeg. Then I cooked the dumplings in the chicken broth infusing them with the broth and also adding more flavour to the soup. Sometimes the matzo balls are served in a clear chicken broth, but I wanted to make this soup heartier, so I kept the chicken and the veggies making this soup a big success. It's no secret that chicken soup is one of our favourites, enjoy!
