These gluten free mini dutch babies are cooked in a muffin pan to perfect serving-sized puffiness. Coated with fruit sauce, they are a beautiful and delicious breakfast or coffee accompaniment. And did I mention that they only take like 30 minutes to make? You need these. Now. See those plates? I am so excited about those plates. Yes, I know what your thinking: "Here it is at last. Confirmation that Linnaea is 100% insane. I think it's time I unsubscribed from this blog." Insane ...
Breakfast
Sausage, Pepper & Tomato Breakfast Frittata (dairy free options available)
With summer finally going full throttle, we have a ton of extra eggs tossing about in the house. When my sister remembers to collect them, anyway. Usually she leaves them out in the chicken house for several days so that they can get properly…seasoned. Then we lose several of the eggs to Ralphie. He's the cat (but don't tell him that--he's convinced he's actually a benevolent dictator). But every morning Ralphie is there, squeaking away whenever an egg appears. He can identify eggs in ...
Blueberry Swirl Muffins
It’s actually been a month since I made this muffin recipe, so forgive me if I fail to remember enough to wax eloquent on the glories of gluten free blueberry swirl muffins. I may be a foodie, but I can’t remember how my food tasted a month after I ate it. Frankly I’d rather not think too much about last month’s food. Because last month, shortly after making eating the last crumb of these muffins, I went to New Zealand and began The Diet of Tuna (which, by the way, is not required in New ...
Savory Baked Breakfast Crepes
I suffer from a chronic condition known as procrastination. Whenever I don’t want to do something (like apply for college or write scholarship essays), I bake delicious food and take hours photographing it. That’s what I did the morning I made these savory baked crepes. And, well, I also had to make a payment, so these crepes were the perfect currency. I’d traded a younger sister for her turn with the cat the night before, so I owed her breakfast. I don’t know why we even argue about ...
Old-Fashioned Oatmeal (no more gummy oatmeal, ever again)
Here's the thing about oatmeal: You're doing it wrong. I was doing it wrong too for a while, just merrily following the instructions on the package (after all, they make it, they must know what they're talking about). The finished result of my oatmeal was pretty much one large ball of snot, which isn't a very appetizing breakfast. My Dad taught me how to make good old-fashioned oatmeal the right way. It's supposed to be pretty dry, not at all snotty. A perfect oatmeal flakes apart ...
Cinnamon Roll Dutch Baby Pancake
I'm starting to love a good dutch baby pancake. They are so easy to make. Just put everything in the oven and then go about your business (usually for me this involves brushing my hair for once, putting away all the clothes that are laying about on the floor, and maybe even making my bed). Then, twenty minutes later, open the oven to see that something magical has happened. When I remove my beautiful Dutch Baby from the oven, it is usually greeted with gasps of awe and hunger. The Wheedler ...
Gluten Free Crepes with Caramelized Peach Spread
A delightful breakfast or a pretty dessert, these gluten free crepes with caramelized peach spread are simply divine. Refined sugar free, too! Jump to the Recipe. This morning I wandered downstairs in a daze and collapsed backwards onto the couch, legs swinging up into the air and head hanging off the edge (this is the proper way to sit/lounge/flop on a couch). The blood rushed all the way down from my feet to my brain, and I stared at the opposite upside down wall and faced that old ...

Paleo Pancakes Without Bananas
I figured that if I’m going to have some paleo recipes on this blog, I should have a pancake recipe....a recipe for paleo pancakes without bananas. Something I’ve noticed about paleo people: They must all love having bananas in their pancakes, because pretty much ever recipe I've seen contains bananas. I hate to disappoint them. But there are paleo pancakes without bananas. So in other words, you won't take a bite of these pancakes and get your mouth filled with ...
Gluten Free Dutch Baby Pancake
A Dutch Baby, as near as I can figure, is a baked pancake that puffs up and turns a delicious golden brown. It sounded good to me. I had to experiment a few times. The first one didn’t puff quite like it should’ve, the second one was too eggy. But this one was good. So enjoy. This recipe makes one 10 inch gluten free dutch baby pancake. Cover it with maple syrup, cinnamon, butter, and a dash of cloves. (And, yes, you'll notice that I changed my recipe format--Hopefully ...
Gluten Free Breakfast Casserole
I actually made this gluten free breakfast casserole last week, but haven’t gotten around to posting it until now. I’ve been experimenting a lot lately with different breakfast recipes, and I even considered the hated quiche (hated by me, anyway. You probably love it and I’m really sorry for offending you just now). This is sort of an adaption of quiche, made with potatoes, meat, spinach, and cheese to break up the “egginess” of it all. Of course, you can make it as quiche, but who would ...
Lemon Vanilla Crepes
I really should stop going on pinterest. A few days ago some beautiful lemon vanilla crepes flashed before my eyes, and suddenly I remembered that I hadn’t made crepes for a long time. But these ones were gluten-stuffed. And sugar stuffed. And they were too hard to make. And you had to let the dough refrigerate for a whole hour, or (gasp!) overnight. I don’t usually plan ahead the night before, and I especially will not get out of bed an hour earlier. Will not. So I made my ...
Gluten Free Cinnamon Roll Pancakes
There's something fun about taking pictures of food. Maybe it's because the food isn't impatient. It sits perfectly still and lets me do what I want with it. When I'm taking pictures of my sisters, they never sit perfectly still and they have their own ideas about what they want to do. It's also difficult to tell someone that the pose they are striking doesn't look that great. The food never has hurt feelings, even though sometimes I make it look terrible. Food photography is much ...
Apple Cinnamon Pancake Sauce
This apple cinnamon pancake sauce is super easy and quick, and it adds something new to pancakes. Even pancakes, since we have them quite often, can get a little boring now and then. This sauce took practically no extra time since I could make it while the pancakes were cooking. Anyway, my little sister demonstrated her approval by eating four big pancakes absolutely covered in this sauce! You can use pretty much any basic pancake recipe underneath this sauce. My favorites are Gluten-Free ...
Extra Fluffy Pancakes
I've made at least four different recipes for pancakes now. Extra thick and fluffy ones (at least ¾ of an inch thick), Medium thick and fluffy (about ½ an inch thick), extra dark outside medium thick and fluffy, and then these. These ones are only about ¼ of an inch thick. But they are very light and fluffy on the inside, with a nice soft brown outside. When I picked one up to put it on a plate, I was surprised by how little it weighed. That can only mean one thing: There is a lot of ...
Apple Cinnamon Granola
This makes a nice, flavorful gluten free granola. We eat it for breakfast and for snacks, which has helped make breakfast quick and easy time and time again! I have several other flavor variations which I will post. To those who don't have gluten-free oats: SOLUTION! You can find a "oat free granola" recipe in the "Breakfast" section or through the search bar. If you don't eat grains at all, I have a grain-free & vegan granola recipe in the grain-free, dairy-free, gluten-free ...
