Gluten free hazelnut cracker recipe with dairy free herb cream cheese spread and both recipes are vegan
Gluten-free hazelnut crackers and vegan herbed cream cheese.

Holiday fever has struck. The wheel of the year has turned once again and Winter Solstice is fast approaching. And that means party food, Dudes and Dudettes. Appetizing little bites of joy and peace. Gluten-free hazelnut crackers you can serve your guests without apology. Snowy soft herbed cream cheese you can offer your favorite vegan and your die-hard carnivore. That's right. Both. At once. To whet their appetite. A tease. A taste of deliciousness to get the festivities rolling.

And no one has to know how crazy easy it was to conjure these goodies.

They'll just be totally impressed you made your own crackers. And after they try one? You might even score a kiss beneath the mistletoe.

You've got your mistletoe hung, right?

Nothing beats golden, crispy, lacy latkes.


A gluten-free favorite from the archives- these tender, lacy latkes are easy to make. Serve with homemade applesauce and sour cream spiked with a hint of horseradish or chives. And PS: I just passed my 5th year blog anniversary! Five years blogging gluten-free recipes.

Delicious thanks to all of you- much love xox Karina

Delicious gluten-free pumpkin pancakes with maple syrup and apricot jam
Pumpkin pancakes with apricot jam and pepitas.

I haven't made gluten-free pancakes in a long time. I am- typically- not a big breakfast person. A solo slice of warm gluten-free toast glistening with melting peanut butter and a hot coconut milk chai usually does it for me. So what possessed me to change my routine? Why did I suddenly have a deep growling desire for pancakes?

In a word: pumpkin. My favorite cucurbit.
