Favorite Things Ultimate Christmas Giveaway

This giveaway has ended. But you can still check out my top-rated cookbook, Everyday Grain-Free Baking, and try out several of the recipes listed in the “dessert” section of the blog. Merry Christmas!

In celebration of the Christmas season, my friends Polly and Rachel at Thriving Home asked if I would continue the tradition of participating in their Annual Christmas Giveaway Blog Hop. My response … Yippee!

Since y’all loved the past two Christmas giveaways, I immediately jumped (or should I say, hopped) at the opportunity to partner together on another terrific giveaway with some of my favorite bloggin’ friends.

And because the holidays are the busiest ~ baking ~ season of the year, I thought it would be the perfect time to put together an awesome gluten-free, grain-free Holiday Baking Giveaway! So, I called my friends at Simple Mills and asked if they’d join me in putting together a delicious prize package to make one lucky winner’s holiday season even more merry and bright (not to mention tastier too!).

Of course, it’s no secret that I’m super passionate about gluten-free, grain-free baking. After all, I spent over a year developing, photographing and publishing Everyday Grain-Free Baking – named one of the “Top Must Have GF Baking Cookbooks” by Clean Eating Magazine and Simply Gluten-Free Magazine.

But as much as I love to bake from scratch, there are times when I just want to whip-up something quickly! Thankfully, there is one company I trust who is committed to providing gluten-free, grain-free baking mixes made with pure, real food ingredients – Simple Mills!

Founder Kaitlyn Smith, started Simple Mills because of her passion for simple, healthy and delicious grain-free baking. When Simple Mills first started out, I developed a few recipes using Kaitlyn’s muffin mixes. And as Simple Mills has continued to grow and add even more delicious baking mixes to their wholesome product line, I’ve become an even bigger fan and loyal customer!

What’s included in the Holiday Baking Giveaway:
One lucky winner will receive the following prize package (approximately a $125 value) …

The winner will receive one of each of Simple Mills delicious gluten-free, grain-free baking mixes, including:
• Chocolate, Pumpkin and Banana Muffin Mixes
• Artisan Bread Mix and Pizza Dough Mix
• Pancake & Waffle Mix
• Vanilla Cake & Cupcake Mix
