Healthy Gluten Free Dessert Recipes Made From Scratch

Our gluten free dessert recipes page covers nine masterfully perfected treats.  We've spent the last five years making sure our visitors have alternatives other than just the high glycemic desserts you see in stores.

That's where The Healthy Diet Paradise separates itself from mainstream America.  Not only are our desserts gluten free, they're sugar free.  This is a tall order.

There are gluten free stores popping up all over the place. Store bought gluten free items are chock full of high glycemic sugar and flour products.  These gluten free foods still cause diabetes and other very serious issues that create debilitating illnesses.

In stores across America, food suppliers are creating the same problems with their high glycemic flours and grains. We avoid processed foods at every turn.   

We show you step by step how to cook to avoid the shocking health complications that come from eating wheat-based foods.


Gluten Free Dessert Recipes List


Zucchini Bread Recipe

This zucchini bread recipe below is highly requested in our family.  This recipe can be used for the holidays or any special occasion.  In the picture below, we used garbanzo bean flour.  We've also combined garbanzo bean (chickpea) flour and gotten excellent results.  We use xylitol and coconut sugar, but you can use any healthy sweetener that's available.

Chocolate Brownie Recipe

Our recipe for gluten free chocolate brownies is made with garbanzo bean flour.  This recipe needs a lot of xylitol to sweeten the natural 100% bitter cacao bars that we use. Xylitol can cause lax stools, so we mix coconut sugar into this recipe to lessen the effects of the xylitol.  

Xylitol is a 100% natural sweetener, and we use it often in our gluten free dessert recipes.  Click here to learn the science, history and use recommendations for xylitol



Gluten Free Oatmeal Cookie Recipe

For most of our gluten free dessert recipes, we use soy flour, but not all of them.  For these oatmeal cookies, we strictly use soy flour.  When we first started making these, we did not have a substitute for brown sugar, which makes these cookies chewy.  We use grated orange peel to create the texture that brown sugar gives.  You can also use organic coconut palm sugar to give these cookies a gorgeous chewy texture.

Gluten Free Banana Walnut Bread Recipe


Our gluten free banana walnut bread has been perfected after several years of trial and error.  We use soy flour, organic eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla and butter. When this is baking, the smell is just astonishing.  

Remember that fat from butter is an essential nutrient that your body desperately needs.  Click here to learn about the health benefits of fat.

As you can see from the picture below, the texture is firm, and it's crunchy around the edges.  Make sure you spread natural butter to prevent the bread from sticking.  The butter makes this bread taste wonderful.

This buckwheat banana bread recipe was donated by one of our visitors.  As you can see from the picture below, the texture for this buckwheat flour banana bread is firm with a great texture.
