Gluten Free Cherry Vanilla Mini Loaves

Gluten Free Cherry Vanilla Mini Loaves

Cherry season is starting to wind down, which means the cheaper prices that have allowed me to be well stocked all summer will be ending soon. Bummer!

So, how about we enjoy another recipe made with my favorite summer time fruit before they disappear from stores for another year?

Aren’t mini versions of regular sized foods just the cutest? For instance, these Cherry Vanilla Mini Loaves. Adorable. And cherries + vanilla, so yummy. I also love the built in portion control. Baked goods are a weakness for me (along with dark chocolate) and having a smaller version makes it easier for me to not overindulge.

Gluten Free Cherry Vanilla Mini Loaves

This recipe could not be any simpler to make. Just 11 whole food ingredients you may already have on hand and 35 minutes, that’s all you need. I used a mini loaf pan, but you can also use a regular muffin pan if you’d like. Just be sure to adjust baking time accordingly.

Gluten Free Cherry Vanilla Mini Loaves

These little loaves of muffiny goodness are also gluten free, oil free, and naturally sweetened if you skip the glaze. It’s delicious with or without it. I also think a chocolate drizzle would be fantastic. Remember that weakness for chocolate I mentioned earlier?
And these loaves are great for an afternoon snack (with tea) or an on the go breakfast.
