I am in a long term, deeply passionate love affair with fried dough covered in frosting and sprinkles. I know it bad for me and I should say ‘no’ but…but..I just can’t! Nobody understands me quite like Maple Bar does. Which is why this gluten-free diet has been absolute torture.
I should also mention that there is a doughnut shop across from where I work. Some cruel genius figured out that tech zombies and healthcare nerds have lots of spare cash and an inability to get up early enough to prepare a healthful breakfast. That rich, rich bastard. $$$
Despite the taunting call of my lover every morning (and a freaking work pizza-party…where do I pick up my medal?), I have maintained my gluten free heading! But I don’t think I could have done it without these guys;

I call them my doughnut replacements because they hit all the same flavor notes that make my brain light up like a rat tasting that first bite of maze completion prize cheese. Nothing tastes quite like saturated fat on the tongue (i.e. bacon and butter), nothing! Warning: they taste awesome but remember they are still full of calories, so take it easy.
More Gluten-Free nonsense to come…
