Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Sour Cream Cake

September 24, 2017

Friday is National Coffee Day so this week I’ll be sharing some of our favorite coffee-based recipes. I’m personally not much of a coffee-drinker but I really do like cooking and baking with it.

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Pecan Lace Cookies

September 21, 2017

Autumn is by far the best smelling time of year. The air is crisp and full of scents like apple cider, cloves, cinnamon, oranges, brown sugar, and of course toasted pecans! It smells good enough to eat.

Gluten-Free, Vegan Fruit Salsa

August 23, 2017

I’ve never been a fan of hot and humid weather, betting suits, or the lake days that Summer inevitably brings, but what I do love about this season is all the fresh fruit! Berries, peaches, mangoes, cherries, apricots…I could go on and on. The colors alone are FABULOUS!

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Chocolate-Drizzled/-Dipped Coconut Macaroons

August 13, 2017

Here’s a little addition to the Coconut Macaroons we shared a couple weeks ago—chocolate! Chocolate always has and always will make everything better. It’s just one of the not-so-secret secrets of the world.

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Apple Sharlotka Cake

July 30, 2017

I made this once for fun, but quickly realized how delicious it was and now it’s my go-to for an easy and insanely good sweet treat. Something a little different but with the comfort of apples, cinnamon, and sweet batter. But in a upside-down sort of way.

Gluten-Free, Vegan Peach Crisp

June 27, 2017

One of the best things about summer is the fresh produce, like these fabulous Georgia Peaches! As soon as I get those fuzzy, ripe peaches in my hands, my mind whirls with all their potential—crumbles, pies, galettes, tarts, popsicles, scones, ice cream, salad…the list goes on and on!

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Coconut Macaroons

May 31, 2017

It’s so exciting that coconut products are popping up everywhere now—coconut flour, coconut sugar, coconut water, coconut shampoo, etc, because I’ve always been a lover of all things coconut! My dad used to drill into coconuts for me to drain the water from. It’s great the water is more readily available now without the trouble of power tools. Though I could never resist scooping out and eating the sweet, fibrous insides of this tropical dry drupe. Mmm!

Gluten-Free, Vegan Cream Cheese Frosting

April 15, 2017

Did you all know there is a difference between frosting and icing? I’ve always used them interchangeably, but apparently they are actually different. Icing is traditionally “thinner and glossier” and tastes more sugary while frosting is “thicker and fluffier.” The more you know, right?

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Oatmeal Cookies

April 14, 2017

There is a reason cookies are the perfect dessert for any occasion. They come in tons of shapes, sizes, flavors—you name it! I’m sure there are people out there who don’t like them, but 1. I’ve never met them, and 2. That may be a friendship deal-breaker.

March 30, 2017

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

March 14, 2017

Happy Pi Day! Or in this case, Pie Day! Did you know that PIE backwards looks like is 314 (like 3.14) which is pi! I was freaking out earlier when my boyfriend told me. What a cool coincidence! Just another reason to make and eat actually pie today, not that I needed an excuse. :)

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Bourbon-Soaked Bread Pudding

February 28, 2017

I’ve got two facts for you today. No. 1: Did you know that "Mardi Gras" is “Fat Tuesday” in French? It was surprising to me that not many people made that connection so I thought I would share. No. 2: The number one most wasted household food item...

Puppy Treats

February 15, 2017

I am an animal lover to my core so it’s difficult for me to watch others feed their dogs food containing ingredients they can’t even pronounce. I watch what I put into my body so why wouldn’t I do the same for my furry friends.

Hi, I'm Shalan! Studioist.co is my journal devoted to adventures, creativity, recipes, and my husband LeBraun and I's semi-nomadic lifestyle. I spend most of my days wondering how to combine my two loves, traveling and illustrations. The rest of my time I spend trying to create awesome gluten-free, dairy-free recipes. I want this to be a place of inspiration and encouragement as well as a fun place to spend your time. And yes, sometimes it gets messy, but I wouldn't have it any other way.


Here’s what shakin’, bacon!
