Caramel Almond Cake
This Caramel Almond Cake is one of my favorite ways to use the Pear Caramel Sauce that I posted last week. It comes together easily, but makes a beautiful, moist and delicious cake that is great for holiday celebrations (or anytime!).

Vegan Pumpkin Cheesecake (Full-Size and Bites)
I have been making a vegan pumpkin cheesecake for years now, and it’s always a big hit even with non-vegans.

GF Flour Tortillas
These homemade gluten-free flour tortillas are a game-changer. Store-bought versions tend to be too small to make a burrito, tear easily, and lack flavor. These are soft and flexible, large enough to wrap, and taste amazing, even though they only use a few ingredients. It takes some practice to roll them out and keep them…
