Whole Grain Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Mini Muffins

By Denise Pare-Watson

What do you do when you have to bake for a young child who is unable to tolerate wheat or dairy? You can bake these delicious 8-grain or 4-grain mini muffins. This recipe for Whole Grain Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Mini Muffins uses a wheat-free hot cereal as a base. The cereal is soaked in non-dairy milk for 10-30 minutes before you add the remaining ingredients. The mini muffins have a wonderful crunchiness that is very pleasing. I have used either of Bob’s Red Mill 8-Grain Hot Cereal, or Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal (4 wheat-free grains) and both provide a very good result.

Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffins

By Denise Pare-Watson

This recipe was made for Easter breakfast when my two daughters were very young, and it has been a favourite ever since. I am unsure of the origin of the recipe – it has been adapted several times over the years.  Try this recipe for Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffins – they are ‘yummy in my tummy’ as my daughters often said.

Baking Dilemmas and the Fix

By Denise Pare-Watson

The Confident Kitchen Series

“I love baking, but baking hates me!!” This is a frequent comment that I hear, which clearly illustrates people’s frustration with baking. Typically, after just a few questions, it quickly becomes quite clear why they are feeling this way. There are several key issues which arise again and again. In this “Confident Kitchen” post, I am going to address some of the necessary fundamentals of baking. For the purposes of this post, I will discuss Baking Dilemmas and apply “The Fix” to a recipe for muffins.

One of the very best things about being a chef is that I am able to adopt a “pay it forward” approach to cooking and baking. There are many barriers that prevent people from attempting baking or cooking which can be resolved easily.

Best Ever Banana Muffins

By Denise Pare-Watson

Kids in the Kitchen Series

I have been making these Best Ever Banana Muffins for so many years now that I know the recipe by heart.  What does this tell you?  It tells you that this Best Ever Banana Muffin recipe will become a family favourite in your household, too!

My little daughters helped make these often…(sometimes with surprising results).  Like the time the baking soda perhaps found its way into the mixing bowl a few too many times and our muffins tasted mighty soapy.  Or the time that we forgot the baking powder and they ended up a little on the flat side.

Baking with children is always an adventure and one that I would not have missed for the world.  We look back on those times with fond memories and now have carried it into another generation with grand kiddies.  They enjoy it just as much as their mommas did.

Good Morning Cranberry-Coconut and Carrot Gluten Free Muffins

By Denise Pare-Watson

This recipe for Good Morning Cranberry-Coconut and Carrot Gluten-Free Muffins is bar none, one of the best gluten-free muffins, if not the best gluten free breakfast pastry I have ever tasted.  It is the closest thing to a Morning Glory Muffin that I can think of.  In my career as a pastry chef, I have made a ton of muffins for breakfast service and various morning events.   I mean A LOT of muffins!  I challenged myself to make a gluten-free muffin that no-one could differentiate from a gluten muffin.  I believe I have done that with this gem of a recipe.  The feedback that I receive from anyone who has tasted this muffin verifies my findings.  Try it!  Let me know what you think – I would love your feedback.
