Hi, I’m Megan!
I’m the recipe developer behind A Dash of Megnut, where I share gluten-free recipes for everything from homemade bagels and dinner rolls to cookies, birthday cakes, and appetizers.
I was diagnosed with celiac disease in 2013. Learning to cook and bake gluten-free meant figuring out new ingredients, reading a lot of labels, and making plenty of recipes that didn’t turn out the way I hoped. I know how frustrating it is to spend time and money on something you’re excited to eat, only to be disappointed.
What you’ll find here
I have a particular love for gluten-free baking, especially breads, bagels, pastries, and cookies. You’ll also find dinners, appetizers, and recipes for holidays and get-togethers.
I test my recipes over and over, adjusting ingredients, amounts, and methods until I’m happy with the results. With gluten-free baking, small changes can make a big difference in texture and structure, so those details matter to me.
That testing helps shape the instructions I share with you. You’ll find step-by-step photos, ingredient notes, and troubleshooting tips to help you along the way. When a recipe needs a specific flour or technique, I’ll explain why and show you what to look for.
I develop the recipes and take all the photos and videos you see here. If you see a close-up of dough or the inside of a loaf, it’s there to help you know what to expect in your own kitchen.
A little more about me
Outside of A Dash of Megnut, I work as a professional food stylist for national grocery chains, restaurants, airlines, and packaged food brands. I prepare and style food for photography and video, working through the details that make food look its best on camera.
I live in the Chicago suburbs with my husband, our daughter, and our dog. I take holiday decorating a little too seriously and will happily watch a Hallmark Christmas movie even when I already know exactly how it ends. I live for a good cup of coffee and love having friends over to play mahjong or just sit and catch up.
