The friendliest, most love-filled gossip you’ve ever overheard.
My heart flutters with gratitude for each and every last one of you.
If being part of the Healthful Pursuit community has triggered some crazy awesome happenings in your life or helped catapult you forward, I’d love to hear about it.

Leanne has a unique and uplifting approach to healthy living and gluten-free, paleo, vegan dishes and desserts. I freely and happily recommend her delicious recipes and natural and wise approach to health. Her Christmas Dessert Freedom Cookbook is a wonderful resource, one we can all use to enjoy the holidays with ease and in full celebration. — Connie | Leaf & Ardor Tea Co.

Leanne’s commitment to this project – to providing us with a solution to our restrictions and allergies, is downright inspiring in every way. Dessert Freedom is so much more than a cookbook, it’s a guide to living a healthier life, full of love for ourselves, our bodies and our allergies.

Dessert Freedom is BEAUTIFUL. I can totally feel all the time, energy, love, and support Leanne poured into making it. I’m overcome with emotion in the best way possible. Leanne – thank you for being YOU and for being a guiding light for so many people, including myself. — Dana Machacek

This cookbook is THE resource for yummy, healthy recipes. I also appreciate the fact that Leanne is very passionate about healthy living and is so willing to share her knowledge without judgment. She is an inspiration to me! — Melonie

Initially one may judge it as “just a healthy recipe book”, but when you actually sit down to read it, and I mean read it, word for word, cover to cover; you will be transported into a world of love for yourself through gentle guidance in ways to increase your wellness through glorious food. — Tanis

I bought Dessert Freedom the first day it was available and I have to say, it’s the best thing I’ve bought in a long time! The photographs are absolutely stunning and Leanne’s recipes, well they speak for themselves. I LOVE this cookbook.

Leanne has created a comprehensive, insightful and gorgeously illustrated guide to dessert freedom. With her characteristic warmth and down-to-earth style, she provides clear and useful information that is accessible and affordable to all. Be inspired to flourish beyond our own limitations instead of feeling stuck and dis-empowered by our allergies.

This cookbook is almost too good to be true! It’s a mouthwatering collection of recipes with all manner of classic sweet flavors, but there’s no dairy, eggs, or grains in sight. — Chef Amber Shea | ChefAmberShea.com

I have been making lots of items from this cookbook and love it! My daughter turns one this week and to meet all the dietary needs for her party I need to make dairy free, peanut free, gluten free, soy free and refined sugar free recipes. Thankfully that is no longer an issue! I made coconut joy squares, strawberry chia squares and rosemary omega bites! All delicious and wrapped and ready to go in the freezer. Thank you for always providing wonderful recipes, cannot wait to try more! — Karrie

My life has changed since finding Healthful Pursuit. I feel so much better. No more nausea, way less stomach issues, no more cheating on foods I can’t eat. I now crave green smoothies, cucumbers and fruits. It’s a new way of life and I am embracing it! — Isabelle

I’m a huge fan of Leanne and Healthful Pursuit! In her cookbook, Dessert Freedom, mouth-watering photographs and simple recipes with nutrient dense ingredients will have you falling in love with your “restricted” diet. Nothing short of liberating and inspiring as always.

Every recipe, every technique and guide is just amazing. Leanne’s gone above and beyond with this one. The bright pictures, nutrition information, healthy apple parfait… I will most definitely be using the Dessert Freedom techniques in my day to day.

I appreciate that Leanne didn’t try to reproduce all the “not-so-good-for-us” desserts but instead, presented Dessert Freedom with new, original ideas. Thank you for that. Excellent job. Clear and succinct. Perfect. — Monique

An eye opener for anyone confronted with food sensitivities and allergies. Also a must-have for all those with diabetes and those at high risk of developing it. Love the tips, links to ingredients and substitution suggestions. There is a great mix of recipes with the majority of them being really quick, easy and straightforward. As with all of Leanne’s work, her photography and beautiful design work makes everything so enticingly exciting and joyous!

Dessert Freedom will motivate you to eat healthy, nutrient dense desserts. Leanne’s recipes and techniques will inspire you to fall in love with the wonderful colours, flavours and energy healthy living can bring to your life.

I know that I can always expect to see healthy, original ideas from Leanne. Always. The recipes look wonderful and I have to say, I’m so happy that the nutritional information for each recipe is at the back of the book… genius!

Leanne’s pictures are BEAUTIFUL!!! This cookbook has me drooling. I am so happy to see that 2/3 of the recipes are paleo-friendly as well!

Dessert Freedom Cookbook is a MUST-HAVE for people looking to indulge in their sweet tooth (while keeping those nasty allergies at bay!). It’s a fun and easy-to-read book that has recipes that even a novice cook can follow with ease. You almost feel like Leanne is there in the kitchen with you when you read it. And the book seriously has some of the best dessert recipes I’ve come across in a while.

Leanne is a whirlwind of amazing. Everything she creates, everything that she offers us, is impressive. Dessert Freedom is stacked with advice, tips, techniques and thoughts on eating throughout the book, not just recipes. The work Leanne put into this shines through the pages. Everything I look for in a book. Right here.

Dessert Freedom revolutionizes what it means to get your smart vegan sweet fix on. Whatever you live by, Leanne’s collection of masterfully photographed and deliciously presented treats and techniques is a cookbook for enjoyment and a source of inspiration.
