Hey friend! Thanks for popping in. I’m Ansley Beutler, and welcome to The Fit Peach!

I'm the gal behind the camera and mixing bowls. Baking and cooking has been a huge part of my life ever since I was old enough to hold the spatula. Homemade cookies were a staple in our house growing up -- I can recite the Toll House cookie recipe by heart.
As I grew older, I developed a love for all things health and wellness. As this new-found interest doesn't go hand-in-hand with a boat load of Toll House cookies (well, maybe just a couple), I started my adventure with a "health-ier" style of baking and cooking. I began experimenting with wholesome, natural ingredients I knew and loved and intertwined them into my recipes.
The challenge of making something taste just like, if not better in my opinion, than the real thing has become a passion of mine. That's why I decided to start The Fit Peach! You'll find all sorts of recipes around here, from gluten-free to vegan to just a tad bit lighter then the original. They all have natural ingredients that are sure to make you feel good!
More About Ansley
I was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia (hence, the fit peach), but recently moved to Washington, D.C. with my husband, Stephen, and puppy, Pippa. We're also expecting our first baby in September 2020! We are over the moon excited and can't wait to meet the little peanut! (update: SHE'S HERE! Eloise was born on August 29th, 2020 and we couldn't be happier)!
As I mentioned above, I absolutely love being active; I spend the majority of my weekends in athleisure. I firmly believe in moving my body but it's key to find what motivates YOU because it's different for everyone. I bounce around from quick HIIT sessions and group fitness classes, as well as some long runs in between to clear the mind (these are my favorite).
I'm a CPA by trade and have always been fascinated with small businesses. I have hopes of starting and growing my own business myself one day (update - introducing Peach Perfect Financials)!
