My Story

Hi!  Welcome to my blog! 

 I started this blog because I love to bake and cook! I have been baking ever since I can remember. I was a cake decorator, and made my first wedding cake at 12, and a second one at age 13.
 At 16 I found out I had multiple food allergies and and extreme sensitivities. I am allergic to potato, fish, and hazelnuts. And am very sensitive to gluten, dairy, corn, sugar, soy and all grains.

Even with all of those I have figured out how to match what my family eats. Because of my passion for making food, I could not put baking and cooking aside because of diet changes. I have done a lot of research on how to use different flours and ingredients to make things I grew up eating.

Another reason I started this blog is because I hope to encourage people who are having reactions to food, that although it is not easy, it is well worth it to change your diet to feel better. Food is still amazing even though it does not contain gluten! 

Although most of my recipes are Paleo, I am not . It is a diet close to what I eat because of food allergies and sensitivities, but I don't follow the guidelines for a Paleo diet. So that is why you will see a few recipes that are not paleo friendly. :)
Sincerely, 

 Koryn Miles

Grain free and Paleo Crepes

Crepes are something that we make for breakfast on every birthday. I couldn't go without crepes, because they are a family tradition.  I created this recipe to be similar to the crepes I used to eat. They taste SO good! They are so easy to make, just blend all the ingredients together and your done!  Grain free and Paleo Crepes   Makes 12-14 crepes Ingredients 6 Eggs  1 C. Dairy Free Milk (I use either coconut or almond)  2 Tablespoons melted Coconut Oil 3 1/2 Tablespoons Coconut  Flour  1/2 + 1 Tablespoon Almond Flour  2 Tablespoons Arrowroot Starch  3/4 teaspoon Salt Instructions Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth.  Preheat grill, or pan on medium-low heat. Grease your grill or pan with coconut oil.  Pour 1/4 to 1/3 C. of batter on your grill or pan. You will know when they are ready to flip when the top is no longer shiny. Once flipped they don't take very long to cook. I use a pancake spatula to flip these.      Serve

Paleo & Vegan Avocado Key Lime Pie

I love this light simple key lime pie! It is so creamy and smooth and tastes so fresh, and doesn't make you feel heavy after eating it. You may worry that it will taste like avocados... I can honestly tell you that it does not.  When you put avocados with something, like lime juice, all you can taste is the lime. But you get the creamy and smooth texture of the avocado that makes it so good!      Paleo & Vegan Avocado Key Lime Pie Ingredients  Crust Layer   1/2 C. Almonds(any other nut will work)  1/2 C.

Moist Grain Free & Paleo Carrot Cake

I have been wanting to make carrot cake for a LONG time. It is one of my favorites! I created this recipe to have a moist and fluffy cake. It turned out so delicious!   I had an idea for creating "cream cheese" frosting with no dairy, I was getting so eager to try it out. I thought that a carrot cake was the perfect cake to go with it. It is so creamy and very similar to the "real" cream cheese frosting I used to make. I will be posting the recipe for it soon!  Moist Grain Free & Paleo Carrot Cake  Makes a double layer 6in round cake   Ingredients  1 1/4 C. Almond flour  2 Tbsp. Coconut flour  3/4 tsp.
