10 Christmas Desserts, 26 Ingredients + FREE Baking Checklist

December 17, 2013 By Leanne Vogel December 19, 2018

The 26 vegan, gluten-free & paleo ingredients that you will need to bake healthy Christmas desserts this holiday season.

Keto shopping lists, recipes, and more! Start keto with this FREE 5-step guide.

I'm ready!

When I first had the idea of creating a Vegan, Gluten-free, Paleo Christmas dessert cookbook that used just 26 common ingredients, even I thought I was insane. Skepticism aside, I went for it because I had an intense desire to create this cookbook for you.

6 months later, I can proudly say that I have mastered the art of the dairy-free, egg-free, gluten-free, grain-free, nut-free, paleo Christmas dessert.

From Vegan Tiramisu, Egg-free Pecan Pie Bars and Paleo Shortbread… Dairy-free Caramel, Grain-free Rum Balls and Nut-free Gingersnaps…

And, as planned, all of the recipes in my Christmas Dessert Freedom Cookbook use a variety of just 26 easy-to-find ingredients:

Note: the Christmas Dessert Freedom Cookbook is no longer available, but I made a keto-friendly option called The Keto Holiday Cookbook with tons of desserts, plus appies, entrees, sides, and more!
