Slice and Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies (paleo & vegan)

Soft baked paleo & vegan slice and bake chocolate chip cookies. They are tender and chewy just out of the oven and develop the perfect outer crisp as they cool.  This recipe contains no raw eggs so the cookie dough can be eaten straight from the roll in a Buddy the Elf “eat a whole roll of tollhouse cookie dough” kinda way (which these days sometimes feels necessary). Slice them and bake them or slice them and don’t bake them (!), you decide!

Are you ready to give them a go?

Paleo Banana Date Muffins

Craving all of the warm and yummy baked goods from the oven? Yes, me too!  Luckily I have a few recipes up my sleeve that use only natural sugars and whole ingredients.  Like these Paleo Banana Date Muffins! They are sweetened only with bananas and dates and are warm, soft and perfect for those sweet treat cravings.  These are a new favourite around here and I plan on baking them again soon (as soon as I’m done eating my last batch;)!

Are you ready to try them?

Paleo Lemon Cake

Dear cake, thank you.

I have found myself saying this a few times these past few weeks. Can you relate?? There really is something about the comfort of baking- especially when it’s the perfect paleo lemon cake sweetened entirely with maple syrup! Somehow lemon desserts always feel like spring and sunshine and being OUTSIDE! So let’s bring a little of the outside in by making lemon cake and eating it all. Deal?

Have you ever had a cookie that tastes like an almond butter and jam sandwich? Because this cookie is just that.

This is a paleo and vegan thumbprint cookie made with almond butter and raspberry chia jam and it is deee-lish-ous.

They are doughy (if you have come for a crunchy cookie move along please) and not too sweet.  Filled with a tart raspberry jam and drizzled with just the right amount of chocolate and I cannot stop eating them.  *quietly sneaks into the kitchen for another cookie, or six*

And guess what? They are perfect for your holiday cookie swap or as a gift!  Let’s give them a go!
