Debbie Adler is the owner and biggest nosher at Sweet Debbie’s Organic Cupcakes. Whenever you meet her, she is quick to offer you a Chocoholic Cupcake or any one of her allergen- and sugar-free desserts that happens to be exiting the oven. Since it gives her especially great pleasure to see children gobble up her healthy baked goods, her goal is to teach all mammas, by hook or by cookbook, how to bake up batches in their own kitchens.
Debbie’s son was born with multiple food allergies. Without any ambitions of Food Network stardom, Debbie was inspired to become her son’s allergen-free Iron Chef as well as create a bakery so that children like her son, as well as those with diabetes, celiac disease, and autism, could safely enjoy mouth-watering and nutritious desserts.
Debbie is a life-long student of nutrition and eating sweets, and has combined the two things she loves most into her unique bakery and cookbook, SWEET DEBBIE’S ORGANIC TREATS (Harlequin, 2013).
In 2013, Debbie Adler’s Sweet Debbie’s Organic Treats: Allergy-Free and Vegan Recipes From the Famous Los Angeles Bakery proved that cooking for those with allergies and food sensitivities doesn’t mean giving up dessert.
Now Sweet Debbie goes savory with more than 100 plant-based recipes free of the top eight food allergens—dairy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, fish, and shellfish—plus free of refined sugar and oils.
Motivated by her own son’s life-threatening allergies, Adler has spent the last six years creating meals to nourish and delight her entire family—meals that are both savory and safe—including:
- Lemon Basil Blueberry Muffins
- Sweet Miso Forbidden Rice Ramen Noodle Bowl
- Roasted Butternut Squash Enchilada Rounds
- Yam Gnocchi with Sriracha Pesto
- Mediterranean Quinoa Burgers
- Spanakopita Enchiladas with Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce
- Cinnamon Raisin Bread
- Cafe Macchiato Sandwich Cookies
Debbie’s super satiating, divinely delicious, and accessibly easy-to-prepare recipes show just how incredible, versatile, and flavorful allergy-free, plant-based cooking can be! Her entrees, pastas, soups, sides, breads, and sweets are a guaranteed—and guaranteed safe—hit for school, kids’ parties, work events, and more.
