If you have a bunch of apples and don’t feel like making pie or apple crisp, try our easy, four-ingredient applesauce! It’s vegan, gluten-free, and super inexpensive.

As you can probably tell, we are huge fans of muffins. After we began to pursue a vegan, gluten-free diet, we were saddened to discover that most coffee shops and stores only sold pastries filled with dairy, gluten, and/or eggs.

We still had a bunch of hazelnuts left over from the holidays, so we decided to put them to good use. There’s nothing quite like the aroma and flavor of hazelnuts — slightly exotic, nutty but sweet, and so delicious!

There’s nothing as delicious as pancakes on a chilly January morning. And when the pancakes are vegan, gluten-free, and chock-full of applesauce and pecans, they’re even better!

You’re going to flip your lid when you bite into one of these moist, tasty apple cupcakes. They contain both applesauce and grated apples, so they’re ultra-dense and rich. Grocery stores carry a variety of different vegan cream cheese products, but our go-to favorite is Kite Hill. It’s a bit spendy compared to other brands, but worth every penny. These muffins are perfect for the holidays, since they contain cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Heavenly!

Morning glory muffins have been a favorite of ours for many years. This recipe utilizes your favorite vegan and gluten-free ingredients!

Nothing is more festive than cranberries, yet we often don’t use these tart little fruits for anything except sauce. (We’re going to assume that you eschew canned cranberries entirely. If not, we don’t want to know about it 🙂 ). When you finish making your own sauce from scratch, you may have berries left over. What to do with them? Of course, you can also buy fresh cranberries specifically to make this wonderful applesauce cranberry bread!
