Mini bio
How it started.
Ashley grew up in Mid-Michigan and started Fit Mitten Kitchen in 2015 while discovering a healthier way to cook and eat. Living in Pennsylvania after college, she began cooking from scratch, adapting recipes she found through Pinterest and sharing them when friends and family asked.
Making it her work.
Before food blogging, she studied fashion design with a dance minor at Central Michigan University and designed dance costumes. After moving back to Michigan in 2016, she pursued Fit Mitten Kitchen full-time while freelancing for her previous employer. In 2017, Food Blogger Pro interviewed her about growing her Instagram audience past 90,000 in two years and working with brands.
What you’ll find.
Her recipes range from plant-based meals to muffins, quick breads, energy bites and desserts, with many gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan options. She develops and tests the recipes herself. Her About page now describes a collection of almost 1,000 recipes, including reader favorites such as Greek Yogurt Cheesecake and Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins.
