sarah’s favorite things 2015 + holiday giveaway

December 15, 2015 by Sarah 86 Comments

sarahs favorite things 2015

It’s that time of year again! Time to share my favorite things of 2015. From kitchen necessitates, to gluten free goodies, to things that just make this baker’s heart happy. It’s always hard to narrow it down to my top 10, but I think this is a mighty fine collection. I’ve included links to all of these lovely must-haves, as well as a holiday giveaway to knock your stockings right off!

1. Clever Coffee Dripper
Where has the Clever been all my life? This little contraption makes the best coffee ever. Add filter, your favorite ground coffee, slowly pour over hot water and the stopper allows it to sit and brew. Place on your mug and the fresh coffee deliciousness is released right into your cup! Genius.

2. Best Wood Handle Balloon Whisk
Every baker needs a good whisk. This whisk is big enough for all of your whisking and mixing jobs, plus it’s got a nice wood handle. I use mine when I whip up my flour blend, as well as cake and muffin batters.

3. Norpro 2-Tablespoon Stainless Scoop
Your cookies will never be the same when you start using a cookie scoop! It makes all of your cookies the same size, saves so much time and is super fun for kids to use too. Scoop, scoop away!

4. So Delicious Dairy Free Original Coffee Creamer
The wait is over! So Delicious Dairy Free has released their carrageenan free coconut milk coffee creamers! Same great, creamy texture and taste. I always have a splash or two in my coffee. Who needs Starbucks?

5. Nutiva Refined Coconut Oil
I learned this year {a little late} that refined coconut oil gives a more neutral flavor, not so coconutty. I love anything and everything coconut, but sometimes I want a subtle flavor in my cookies and muffins. This refined coconut oil from Nutiva is a great addition to your baking pantry.

6. KitchenAid Flex Edge Beater
If you have a KitchenAid mixer, pleas oh please go buy one of these! Having this beater attachment makes my life so much easier. It helps to scrape and mix all that good buttercream on the sides of the bowl. Works like a charm!

7. Cybele’s Free To Eat Cookies
These top-8 allergen free cookies are the best in town. Hands down. They come in 4 flavors now…chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, chocolate chunk brownie and snickerdoodle. I’m totally addicted to the oatmeal raisin. Crazy good.

8. Waring Pro Belgian Waffle Maker
My family loves waffles and I love this waffle maker. My go-to waffles come out perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I’ve had my Waring Pro Waffle Maker for years now and it’s still busting out top notch waffles!

9. Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pie Crust Mix
Pie season is all year round in my book. I always keep this gluten free pie crust mix from Bob’s Red Mill on hand because it’s that awesome. Flakey pie goodness. That’s what dreams are made of.

10. GFF Magazine
This is the most gorgeous gluten free magazine out there! Every recipe, every article, every photo is stunning. I’m always drooling as I flip through the pages. I’m so impressed with every issue. You can even use my 20% discount when you order {cause I love ya’ll so much}. Just use my code GFFSarah!

Now onto this AMAZING holiday giveaway! Seriously, friends. Are you ready? I’ve saved the best for the end of the year. The winner of this giveaway will receive ALL of these items…

  • $50 Amazon Gift Card
  • Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Bakers Bundle and Mixes {all you need to make my blend!}
  • 1-year GFF Magazine subscription
  • 10 VIP So Delicious Free Product Coupons
  • 8 boxes Cybele’s Free to Eat Cookies

a Rafflecopter giveaway
