Banana Puddings with Butterscotch Sauce – Gluten Free

Posted on by
Gluten Free Banana Puddings with Butterscotch Sauce

The winter weather has arrived in Melbourne which means it’s time for pudding, this Gluten Free Banana Puddings with Butterscotch sauce to be exact! These gluten free puddings are a great dessert to share with friends or just because you like bananas.

Like a lot of my recipes, you can easily substitute the gluten free flour for normal flour if you don’t need to follow a gluten free diet. Be sure to warm the puddings up and serve with a scoop of ice cream. If you run out of ice cream, a dollop of cream also goes nicely.

How about you give them a try this weekend? Feel free to share your baking efforts with me by tagging me on my Instagram account or Facebook page. Enjoy the rest of your week and thanks for reading.

Gluten Free Mini Cinnamon Doughnut Cakes

Gluten Free Mini Cinnamon Doughnut Cakes

I made these Gluten Free Mini Cinnamon Doughnut Cakes a few weeks ago and I’ve been dying to make another batch ever since! Coincidentally, I happened to bake these on National Doughnut Day. Who knew there was such a day?

I also have to admit I miss normal cinnamon doughnuts. We used to get them fresh and hot from the bakery when I was little.So I now have motivation to try making a batch of gluten free cinnamon doughnuts. If  you have a recipe for them please send it my way?!

A special thanks to the queen website once again for the original recipe. I halved it and modified it to be gluten free.

Thanks for reading, hope you’re all having a great week!

Gluten Free Almond, Cranberry and Pistachio Nougat

Gluten Free Almond, Cranberry and Pistachio Nougat

Last week I made this delicious Gluten Free Almond, Cranberry and Pistachio Nougat. Not a bad effort for my first attempt at making Nougat! It’s got that perfect balance of chewy sweetness and a little crunch and wasn’t at all hard to make. You just need a good candy thermometer and some patience to let the nougat set before you can take a bite!

Thanks to the Queen website for the original recipe. I made a few small modifications for my own taste preferences and ease of baking.

In other news, I missed posting new recipes over the last two week thanks to a nasty bug that got the better of Jesse, Lyla and I (my husband and 19 month old for those new to my blog). Thankfully we’re all on the improve now. I’m also really close to being allowed to start rehab after my recent back surgeries. I’m so excited! I plan on making an extra few treats to celebrate this weekend!

Hope you’re all having a great week so far and thank you for stopping by.

Mini Carrot Cakes Gluten Free

Gluten Free Mini Carrot Cakes

Today II’m sharing these Gluten Free Mini Carrot Cakes with Cream Cheese Icing. I was craving cream cheese icing and these carrot cakes certainly hit the spot (and then some) for afternoon tea. Though in all honesty I made these cakes for friends, as a way to say thank you for all their recent support.

Speaking of support, I couldn’t have made these cakes without Jesse’s help (that’s my husband for those new to my blog). I’m sure I irritate him at times but I don’t think he truly minds helping me in the kitchen when he gets to “taste test” the recipe at the end of it all!

How about you? Do you have family or friends who love to bake with you? Feel free to bake this recipe with them or try out my wedding cupcakes for something a little less traditional.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend and thanks for stopping by The Naughty Dietitian,

Peanut Butter White Chocolate Blondies Gluten Free

Peanut Butter White Chocolate Blondies Gluten Free

These Gluten Free Peanut Butter White Chocolate Blondies are the perfect treat for morning or afternoon tea this Mother’s Day!

They’re super quick to make, taste heavenly and only require one bowl for mixing, so what’s not to love? If you’re looking to impress your Mum with something a little different I’d also highly recommend my Lemon Curd Cheesecake or Pecan Blondies. Yum!

Although I don’t get the chance to celebrate with Mum this weekend, I’ll be sending her these treats to enjoy while she’s busy creating floral arrangements for all the other Mums out there to enjoy.

Wishing you all a lovely Mother’s Day and weekend ahead!
