A Dash of Megnut

Hi, I’m Megan — gluten-free recipe developer and commercial food stylist. I’ve lived with celiac disease for 13+ years and have spent the last decade creating recipes that are safe, beautiful, and genuinely delicious. Gluten-free baking is my specialty — from chewy cookies to cakes that wow — Gluten-free baking is my specialty — from chewy cookies to cakes that wow — but I also share approachable, celiac-safe dishes that work for dinner parties, casual get-togethers, and everything in between.

5 easy GF dinners to get you through the rest of winter

Hi Reader! I'm going to be honest with you. My brain is absolute mush right now. February has that effect. The holidays are a distant memory, spring feels far away, and every night around 5pm I stare into the fridge like it owes me an explanation. If you're in the same late-winter fog, I've got you. Here are five of my easiest, most comforting gluten-free dinners. These are the ones I reach for when I have zero brainpower left but still want to eat well without thinking too hard. Bacon...

Hi Reader! If you're anything like me, tomorrow is going to involve a lot of time on the couch, and I'm not mad about it. The winter games just kicked off in Italy (that opening ceremony!), the big game is tomorrow, and honestly, that's a perfectly good excuse to spend the whole day snacking. Whether you're watching figure skating, football, or flipping back and forth between both, here are six gluten-free recipes to keep your spread stocked all day long. They're easy to pull together, some...

A gluten-free donut with vanilla frosting and rainbow sprinkles with a bite taken out of it.

Hi Reader! Remember my enriched yeast dough I used in my gluten-free dinner rolls? Well, I fried it. These gluten-free fried donuts are light, pillowy, and taste like real yeasted donuts. Not baked cake donuts in a pan. Actual fried donuts like you'd get at Dunkin, but better. This is the same base as my cinnamon rolls, crescent rolls and dinner rolls, so if you loved those, you're going to love these too. Finish with thick vanilla glaze and sprinkles, or keep it simple and toss in sugar...

Hi Reader! This one took me 9 tests to get right — and it was worth it. This gluten-free fried chicken is light, crispy and crunchy, with a coating that actually yields when you take a bite. Grab the Recipe Here If you make this fried chicken, I'd love to hear what you think. Reply to this email or tag me on TikTok or Instagram! -Meg

Hi Reader! This past weekend, my family and I had the best time doing a full cookie baking day together. We made 4 different recipes from the site, the kitchen smelled amazing, and we were basically elbow-deep in flour and sprinkles all afternoon. My almost two year old had the best time with the cookie cutters even if she kept trying to eat the dough. It was exactly the kind of cozy chaos I love about the holidays. But here's the thing... today is Christmas day and not everyone has time for...

Hi Reader! My gluten-free dinner rolls have been making rounds on TikTok and in your kitchens, and I've been reading every single comment and message. Here's what people are saying: "Ah.maze.ing! I've already made two batches of these this week for Thanksgiving!"— emily "Just made these and they turned out so good!"— Rachel If you haven't tried them yet, let me tell you what makes them different from every other gluten-free dinner roll recipe out there. What Makes This Recipe Different Here's...

Hi Reader! Happy Thanksgiving week! I know this time of year can feel a little overwhelming when you're navigating the holiday gluten-free, so I wanted to send you some love, some recipes, and a big thank you. A Note of Gratitude I've been reading your comments on my blog, email and Tiktok lately, and so many of you have been making my recipes (especially my bread recipes) and have mentioned that I've made celiac disease bearable for you again. There have been so many comments of those who...

Hi Reader! If you’ve been missing real cinnamon rolls since going gluten-free… this one’s for you. These gluten-free cinnamon rolls are soft, fluffy, and topped with cream cheese frosting that melts right into the spirals. I tested them again and again to make sure they taste just like the ones you remember — not just good for gluten-free, but truly good. What Makes This Recipe Different This recipe also takes a different approach than most gluten-free cinnamon rolls you’ll find online....

Hi Reader! Last weekend, we packed up the car and drove to Wisconsin for a little fall adventure—apple picking! My toddler had the best time walking through the orchard, carefully picking apples off the trees, and taking enthusiastic bites out of each one she grabbed. We ended up coming home with way too many apples (as always)—a mix of Snapdragons, Mosaics (like a sweeter Granny Smith), and Rosalees. They’re all perfect for both snacking and baking, so naturally I started dreaming up what to...
