Grain-Free Vanilla Cupcakes with “Paleo-fied” Chocolate Frosting

Oh, friends. I’m so happy to share this recipe with you. I’ve been trying to come up with a good frosting recipe for awhile now. One that didn’t use powdered sugar.

Peanut Butter (or almond butter) Oatmeal Cookies

Ok, before the Paleo Police call me out on this recipe, these really aren’t “Paleo” since they use oatmeal. However, for a grain, oatmeal works pretty well for the occasional indulgence in our house.

Grain-Free Cinnamon Funnel Cakes

Oh, the fair. Carnival rides, overpriced stuffed toys, and fried, greasy foods. Nothing like it, right? Not really the place for grain-free funnel cakes, though. I’ve only tried traditional funnel cake a few times, but they burned a sweet, greasy image into my tastebuds. These grain-free cinnamon funnel cakes are seriously good.
