I’ve made quite a few alternative baked goods over the years. Most ‘tasted good’ (in the words of my children) but didn’t quite look the same. I’ve used blueberry juice for blue food coloring, grated coconut for the topping, coconut cream sweetened with vanilla and stevia for frosting and I’m certain a few other adhoc substitutes hoping that my son would be pleasantly surprised. I had very little success.
Fortunately, I love where technology has brought us today. The cloud-based software I use for recipes is a tremendous resource.
Here are two gluten free, dairy free, low to no sugar, recipes that involve creative twists that include red sprinkles made from powdered goji berries (I never thought of that!).
Ginger Cookies with red sprinkles
Much light,
