If you're anything like us, you love finding the perfect alternative to those old faithful foods that you just cannot walk away from. The good news is, you don't have to. We've done the hard work for you testing healthier alternatives and perfecting the recipes.

These are some of our go-to grain-free recipes that the Food Matters Team uses on a weekly basis. They might even be better than the originals ;-)

1. Gluten-Free Bread

Do you miss having bread? There's something about the soft, moist, warm fresh bread that brings back memories. Whether you are gluten-free, paleo or just want a healthier option to regular bread, you must try this recipe!

2. Raspberry, Coconut, Banana Muffins

Gluten-free muffins can be dry and let's face it slightly tasteless, but not these ones - they are deliciously moist and so flavorful! The raspberries give them a slight tartness that works so well with the sweetness of the bananas. Get the recipe here.

3. Rosemary & Thyme Loaf

We’ve have found one of the most flavor-packed, most satisfying gluten free loafs of all time. It’s a BOLD statement, but whether you’re living gluten free or not, you will love this bread. Get the recipe here.

4. Gluten-Free Corn Fritters With Kale, Apple & Coconut Slaw
