From Nicole at GFOAS. Great gluten free recipes that really work.
Hey e,
Next week is Mother's Day, and I have 3 children and love many, many things about being a mother. But I have a complicated relationship with my own mother, at best.
Life is complicated. I can only hope that as my children grow up (my oldest just turned 20! my middle child is going to college in a few months!), when they think of me, they think of comfort, support, and love.
But who knows, right? I can truly only hope.
Maybe you have children, maybe you don't. Either way, I bet you are mothered by someone, and that you mother others.
When I think of Mother's Day, I try to think of how we are meant to take care of one another. This Fake TED Talk is a week early this year, but I was feeling bold!
Now, this week's recipes. Both good for a spring/summer/Dads and grads season day...
Make dessert the first meal of the day with this delicious gluten free breakfast cake, studded with fresh seasonal strawberries.
Celebrate a special brunch or everyday mornings with this fruity treat!
Then, an easy homemade gf ice cream layer cake, made of creamy vanilla ice cream and chocolate crunchies between 2 layers of rich gf chocolate cake.
A simple chocolate frosting on top turns this cake into an instant celebration! 🎉

Listen, you can eat whatever you want for breakfast or any other time of day for that matter. The beauty of being an adult, right?!
But this cake has less added sugar and less butter than a 'regular' cake, and it's still super tender—thanks to all those strawberries baked into the cake.
It's perfect for a Mother's Day brunch, served with strawberry syrup, powdered sugar, extra fruit or just plain. But I've been known to slice it into squares and stock my freezer with it for busy mornings. A real multi-tasker!

As we near Mother's Day, then move on to Dads and Grads, it's time to talk about ice cream layer cake. This cake-and-ice-cream layer cake can be just about as simple or as fancy as you want...
Shown above, this cake has 2 9-inch gf chocolate layers, and a middle of homemade marshmallow ice cream mixed with gf chocolate crunchies (gf Oreos + melted chocolate).
Believe it or not, the easiest way to do this is with homemade no churn ice cream, since you can mix it when it's cold but not frozen. But the flavors are yours to customize. Then, stand back and soak up the applause.
On Gluten Free on a Shoestring, we make gluten-free food enjoyable & affordable. If they can make it with gluten, we can make it without.
That's a promise!
