Gluten Free Chocolate Madelines

These Gluten Free Madeleines are the perfect little treat when you want something elegant but incredibly simple to make. They’re soft, buttery, lightly sweet, and bake into that classic scalloped shell shape that feels instantly fancy — even though they come together with basic pantry ingredients.

To make them extra special, I dip the cooled madeleines in rich dark chocolate and finish them with a sprinkle of crushed hazelnuts. The combination is absolutely dreamy: the tender sponge, the snap of the chocolate, and the nutty crunch on top. They look like something from a bakery window, but they’re surprisingly easy to whip up at home.

These gluten free madeleines are perfect for holiday gifting, serving with coffee, or adding to a dessert board. And trust me — once you start dipping them in chocolate, you’ll want to try all kinds of variations!

Gluten Free Lemon Tart

Gluten Free Lemon Tart

If you love lemon desserts, this Gluten Free Lemon Tart is going to be your new favourite. It’s bright, silky, and perfectly tangy, the kind of dessert that wakes up your taste buds in the best way. The filling is smooth and lemony with just the right balance of sweetness and citrus, all tucked inside a buttery gluten free tart crust that bakes up beautifully crisp.

I love this tart because it looks fancy and elegant, but it’s actually incredibly simple to make. No complicated steps, no special equipment, just whisk, bake, chill, and enjoy. It’s the perfect dessert for spring, summer, holidays, or honestly any time you’re craving a fresh, vibrant treat. Especially when Chris asks what I am going to bake next, and asks if I have posted a lemon tart on my blog yet…. It is that good!

Gluten Free Chocolate Almond Loaf

Gluten Free Chocolate Almond Loaf

If you love chocolate as much as I do, this Gluten Free Chocolate Almond Loaf is going to be your new favourite bake. It’s rich, tender, and full of deep chocolate flavour — and just when you think it can’t get better, it’s topped with a glossy chocolate glaze and a sprinkle of chopped almonds for the perfect crunch.

This loaf has everything I want in a chocolate dessert: a moist crumb, a smooth, melt-in-your-mouth glaze, and a balance of sweet and nutty flavours that makes every bite irresistible. It looks impressive but is actually so easy to make — no mixer needed, just a bowl, whisk, and loaf pan.

The glaze seeps slightly into the loaf, keeping it extra moist, while the toasted almonds on top add a beautiful texture contrast. It’s perfect for an afternoon coffee break, a simple dessert, or even a homemade gift that looks straight from a bakery display.

Gluten free triple berry muffins

Gluten Free Triple Berry Muffins

There’s something extra special about a big, bakery-style muffin—and these Gluten Free Triple Berry Muffins are exactly that. They’re soft, fluffy, and loaded with juicy berries in every bite. I love that they bake up with those tall, with golden muffin tops that make you feel like you’re sitting in your favourite coffee shop, only these are gluten free and made right at home.

I used a mix of blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries for a sweet-tart balance, but you can use whatever berries you have on hand—fresh or frozen both work beautifully. The secret to that bakery-style rise? Filling each muffin cup almost to the top and only filling every other cup in the muffin tin so they have room to expand and lift while baking.

These muffins are perfect for breakfast, a mid-morning snack, or a quick grab-and-go treat. Since they freeze well, taste amazing warm, and are a simple way to bring a little bakery magic into your gluten free kitchen.
