Kick off Game Day with Little Northern Bakehouse
Super Bowl is right around the corner and that means parties and cookouts are on the horizon! If you are gluten free, have food allergies, or are vegan, this could also mean you may have some trouble figuring out what to serve at your game day party that everyone can enjoy. Luckily, Little Northern Bakehouse has you covered.
Their website and social media platforms contain tons of mouth-watering photos for sandwich, hot dog, hamburger, and toast inspiration. That’s where I found the recipe below, which is perfect for an allergen- and vegan-friendly Super Bowl party appetizer.
The recipe gives you three gluten-free and vegan friendly options. (If the people at your party are meat eaters and can tolerate dairy, feel free to swap the vegan options for non-vegan ingredients, but because the company’s bread is vegan, they’ve made the recipe convenient for those on a plant-based diet.)
Before we get to the recipe, let me tell you a little bit about Little Northern Bakehouse. This company makes gluten free, non-GMO, plant-based, allergy friendly bread loaves, hot dog buns, and hamburger buns. All except one variety includes millet, making for an extra boost of nutrition.
If you don’t know what millet is, let me fill you in! It’s a naturally gluten-free ancient grain that is rich in iron, B vitamins, and calcium. It has a mild corn flavor and creates a light, moist, smooth texture to the bread and buns.
The company’s Millet & Chia Buns are used in the following recipe. These buns are made with the addition of whole millet and chia seeds for some added crunch. They’re rich in thiamin, folate, and manganese, and have 5 grams of fiber per serving, so you and your guests will get the nutrition needed to fuel you through all that chanting and yelling you’ll be doing after each touchdown!
