No Bake Coconut Snowball Cookies | We've been so excited to bring you this recipe for allergy friendly no bake coconut snowball cookies!

Spicy Chocolate Gingersnaps {gluten-free & egg-free} | This recipe for gluten-free and egg-free chocolate gingersnaps is adapted from Nourishing Traditions. I liked that it used sprouted crispy almonds and arrowroot flour, making it easier to digest. I couldn't fathom a gingersnap without molasses. And all things seem to be better with chocolate. They will forever be on our list of Christmas cookies to make each year! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Allergy-Friendly Chocolate Custard | We are in love with this custard. It's thickened with mineral-rich and digestive-supporting gelatin and it's allergy-friendly. You can use whatever milk you'd like, so dairy-free is an option. And it doesn't need eggs (thanks to that gelatin). Make it now and it will be chilled by dinner time! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

5-Spice Apple Chutney {lacto-fermented} | Kicked up with the Chinese 5-Spice Blend, lacto-fermented apple chutney has been rocking our house lately. I can't keep enough of it on hand for the kids. They love to put a scoop of it in a bowl of kefir. We just went through 1/2 gallon of it in 3 days -- and that was with me telling them not to take so much! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins | In the world of muffins, quick breads, pancakes, and waffles, I vary our whole-grain flours and use many that are gluten-free. After quite a bit of reading, finessing, adjusting, and trying, I achieved gluten-free muffin success! My family was excited (and surprised!) when I finally served these chocolate chip banana muffins which didn't crumble all over their plates, taste bitter, or compromise nutrition. | GNOWFGLINS.com

Cranberry Bread and Cranberry Cookies | I love taking family favorites and making them “new” using “old” methods. During the recent holiday season, my daughter and I decided to do just that with two recipes that we’d read about but never actually tried, both from the "Cranberry" books by Wende and Harry Devlin: Grandmother’s Famous Cranberry Bread and Maggie's Favorite Cranberry Cookies. We're on a roll and just might keep baking our way through the other "Cranberry" books! | GNOWFGLINS.com

Cocoa Almond Crumbles | Combining almonds and chocolate was one of my many culinary dreams last fall. This combination of cocoa, nuts, and coconut is sure to please everyone. Use for easy snacks, desserts, or breakfasts. Relish this crunchy, grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free delight, and/or enjoy gifting to others! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Apple-Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal | We can eat oatmeal year-round, but I have to say that baked oatmeal definitely crosses seasons. You can eat it hot or cold, as breakfast, snack, or lunch -- and with eggs and milk baked in, you've got a high-quality protein boost. This recipe uses soaked oats for best digestion! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

Halvah (Middle Eastern Honey-Sesame Candy) | Halvah is my absolute favorite Middle Eastern treat. I usually make it around Easter-time. The sweet honey and sesame tahini match my celebration of the Savior's resurrection and the coming of Spring. | TraditionalCookingSchool.com
