9. Gluten Free Lemon Peach Crumble
This is such a delicious crumble and the flavors scream summer! This gluten free dessert is sort of a pie crumble hybrid….. there’s not bottom to the pie, you just dump the fruit right in a butter pie dish (EASY!).
I do make a gluten free pie crust here but it is frozen, in ball form, and there’s no rolling needed! You just grate it right on top of the fruit and bake- that’s it. This is so easy and comes together very quickly.

10. Gluten Free Strawberry Shortcake
Gluten Free Strawberry Shortcake perfect for summer desserts! You can certainly use just fresh chopped strawberries (or any berry) and your whip cream or topping of choice!
We used fresh strawberries on top, Truwhip as topping, and a strawberry sauce (which is just some cooked frozen strawberries with a little sugar). Yum! I could eat this every summer night and be happy! Enjoy.

Ingredients.
Allergen free foods
Being able to pronounce (and tolerate) all ingredients is why we set out to make our own mixes. With Josie’s Best, you can be sure you’re getting high quality ingredients from a dedicated facility and family.
Allergen free foods for all.
What began in our kitchen as a way for our family to enjoy the breakfast foods we loved so much has grown to include an incredible family of customers all re-discovering their favorite foods minus the ingredients they can’t eat.
Josie’s Best Gluten Free is bringing breakfast back.
We’re there for those delicious moments when “I can’t eat that” turns into “I can eat that?!”
For the sleeves rolled up, flour on the nose messes that are the beginning of lifelong memories. We’re there on Sundays when you want to pile the pancakes higher than little hands can reach them. Or when you’ve declared “breakfast for dinner” and, somehow, it’s the best night of the week. Josie’s Best Gluten Free is there for all the moments you should never miss out on because of a food allergy.
What started as a personal mission has grown into a larger one—to bring back breakfast for everyone. Today, our customers are revived breakfast enthusiasts, home bakers, and well-loved restaurants looking to provide delicious options for all. And, just like a plate of pancakes or fresh-baked bread, Josie’s is best served with warm smiles and a side of family connection.
