Everyone knows that gluten-free breads can be unenjoyable to say the least. Many people who need to follow a gluten-free diet give up on eating bread altogether due to the lack of good options.
Luckily Canyon Bakehouse (my favorite gluten-free bread company) is now widely available, so no one had to suffer with less-than-delicious bread! Their bread is soft, toasts wonderfully, and they even have bagels, hamburger buns, and other fun bread products.
See below for a delicious and creative way to enjoy bread again 🙂
This healthy Brownie Batter Frosting changes everything. It’s rich and chocolatey enough to satisfy the most intense cravings, all while being refined sugar-free and vegan. Topping it with edible, gluten-free cookie dough and a drizzle of organic peanut butter was the perfect combination for this delicious DESSERT TOAST!
Dessert Toast
Serves: 2 – 202 calories 7.5 F / 32 C / 5 P (includes bread + all toppings)
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 slices Canyon Bakehouse gluten-free bread (7-Grain pictured)
- 1 recipe Brownie Batter Frosting (recipe below)
- 10 Cookie Dough pieces (recipe below)
- 2 teaspoons peanut butter (10g)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Divide frosting evenly between pieces of bread and spread into an even layer.
- Drizzle 1 teaspoon of peanut butter and place 5 cookie dough pieces on each slice of bread.
- Toast in a toaster oven after adding toppings (recommended) for a melty, chocolatey treat. The frosting will not melt off, the cookie dough will cook slightly into half-baked cookies, SO GOOD!
- Enjoy!
