Description
Refined sugar is a major source of inflammation for the body and some baking innovators are finding ways to ditch them without sacrificing the taste and comfort of baked goods.

She shares the story of her diagnosis in her 20s, her switch to an anti-inflammatory diet that eliminated gluten, grains, dairy, refined sugar, and legumes, and her commitment to using whole, real ingredients in her baking. Laurel's dedication to clean and health-focused recipes has not only helped her manage her autoimmune disease but has also led to the creation of Sweet Laurel as a successful brand, offering grain-free, refined sugar-free, dairy-free, and truly delicious baked goods.
