I'm a through and through muffin girl. I would make muffins every morning if I could ('m sure my family would be ok with that). Maybe I like them so much because they are a breakfast version of a cupcake. Or maybe it's because there are endless flavor combinations. I think it's simply because they are a delicious hand-held morning treat. What do you love most about the glorious muffin? I have had many requests for gluten free blueberry muffins lately. Which is funny because I've been testing ... read more

gluten free vegan chocolate chocolate chip cookies
For these sinful cookies, I took my chocolate chip cookie recipe and changed them up a bit. Most of you know that I have a habit of altering recipes to make them even more fabulous. It was easy to do with this recipe, as I was just adding a good, quality cocoa to enhance the chocolate flavor. I find it really does make a difference. I like Ghirardelli cocoa powder, which I usually find at Target. What is your favorite brand of cocoa to use? I do enjoy the classic chocolate chip cookie, ... read more

guest post…gluten free vegan banana bread
My husband is a happy man when he comes home from work and sees a fresh loaf of banana bread sitting on the counter. It's like dessert to him.

Today I'm sharing my new recipe for gluten free vegan banana bread over at Ask Anna. It's a good one! The bread is naturally without eggs or dairy. ... read more

gluten free vegan chocolate blackberry cabernet cupcakes
Sometimes after a long, exhausting day, all I want to do is put my feet up and enjoy a glass of wine. Sure does help this mama relax.

That's when I decided to pair a rich, chocolate cupcake with the bold and robust taste of cabernet sauvignon. I know that only good things can come from combining wine and chocolate! It was so simple to transform an ordinary chocolate cupcake ... read more
gluten free vegan orange creamsicle cupcakes
One of those nostalgic treats I'm sure many of us enjoyed growing up...creamsicle ice cream bars. It was an orange popsicle with vanilla ice cream in the middle. They were also called 50/50 bars. A frozen treat with the perfect combo of zesty orange and creamy vanilla. So refreshing! For my next cupcake recipe for Cupcake Week, I wanted to capture the flavors of an orange creamsicle in a cupcake. It's my husbands favorite so it was a must that I got it just ... read more
gluten free chai latte cupcakes
I'm a chai tea girl. When I go to Starbucks, I don't order a tall mocha frappaccino or a grande carmel macchiato. I go for the chai latte with soy. Every time. That's my drink of choice.

It's day two of Cupcake Week here on Sarah Bakes Gluten Free Treats. ... read more
