As someone who loves gluten in theory but can’t seem to digest it in practice, finding gluten-free gifts during the holidays can be daunting. There’s the cookie swap with friends, the office pizza party, the Hanukkah latke extravaganza, and too many family brunches. Gluten is everywhere at these functions, and it can be annoying to constantly dodge it. This year treat the people in your life who live a gluten-free lifestyle to these gifts, because they also deserve to bake a chocolate cake or have an at-home dim sum brunch. Read on to discover 15 gluten-free gifts perfect for your friend with celiac, your cousin with a gluten intolerance, and everyone in between.
The best part of baking cookies is the smell it fills your kitchen (or whole studio apartment) with, but sometimes baking from scratch can be way too much effort for a weeknight. Thanks to Sweet Loren’s slice-and-bake cookies, you can exert very minimal effort with the reward of having freshly baked cookies in less than 20 minutes. My favorite part? It’s just as easy to bake off one at a time whenever a craving strikes or to bake all 12 for a crowd.
