Gluten Free Bread - 30 Minute Flatbread

Sometimes life does not leave time to bake a loaf of bread. Even with a bread machine there have been months during that past year in which I could not convince myself to bake a loaf of homemade gluten free bread. That’s pretty bad when you consider that the recipe is fairly simple and quick. [...]

Gluten Free Bread: Submarine Rolls

Now there are a lot of foods that I miss on a gluten free diet, but it is just plain torture to watch my friends eat a submarine sandwich at lunch and know that I can’t join in. Since I subscribe to the belief that all foods can be recreated in a gluten free form, John and recently set out to create our own gluten free bread recipe for a submarine sandwich [...]

Gluten Free Bread: Banana Bread

Last Monday morning I was cleaning up the kitchen and discovered that we had somehow accumulated 10 very ripe bananas in the back of the freezer. John has been asking for a loaf of banana bread for several months and he’d obviously done a good job at stashing away the bananas that I [...]

Light and Fluffy Gluten Free Biscuits

A happy accident a few weeks ago led to yet another change in my gluten free drop biscuits recipe. I ran out of soy flour and added an additional 1/2 c. of cornstarch to make up for the shortfall. The result. . . fluffy, tender biscuits that I would put up against anyone’s gluten [...]

Fresh Blueberry Scones – Gluten Free, Casein Free

A few weeks ago I posted a lesson on How to Make Gluten Free Scones Like a Bakery. Several of you asked for my scone recipe, so I made it again this weekend so that I could take pictures for the post. It was a close thing on the pictures though. I had to [...]

Gluten Free Red Velvet Cake

 

Dear Readers,

There are so many things that I should tell you about this gluten free Red Velvet Cake.  I should tell you about how I baked it this morning while wearing a wrap dress, floral apron, high heels and pearls and looked like I had stepped right out of the 1950s. I should tell you [...]

Multi-Grain Flat Bread: Gluten Free Bread Without Starch

If you haven’t guessed by now, most gluten free bread recipes are a bit scarce in the nutrients we’re accustomed to seeing in wheat bread. One reason is that wheat breads are usually fortified with vitamins and minerals during the manufacturing process, and the other is that gluten free breads depend heavily on [...]

No More Naked Burritoes: Gluten Free Flour Tortillas

I’ve been sitting here for ages trying to figure out what to say about these tortillas. If you’ve been gluten free for long, you can understand why I’m speechless. The wonder of it all . . . to have tortillas that bend without breaking; that are big enough to actually wrap around something; that taste [...]

Gluten Free Breakfast Scones

Please welcome a new guest author, Kristina Kofski, who shares her recipe for gluten free scones ~ Mary Frances

I am not a morning person.

In fact, I’ve been known to hit the snooze button for a good 45 minutes in the morning, until my poor fiancé is ready to throw the alarm clock (or me) out [...]

Gluten Free Gusto: Mixing it up

A few weeks ago I sent out a call for you favorite gluten free mixes. Gluten free flours are definitely one of the more overwhelming aspects of gluten free cooking, but it helps to hear what mixes are working for others. I’m really excited to try some of the mixes below. I mean, [...]

Yummy Sandwich Bread (Gluten Free, Casein Free, Soy Free)

Now that I’ve given you my new all-purpose gluten free, soy free flour mix, you need a recipe to try it in. Based on the questions and comments I’ve received I decided to start with bread. And I even found a new sous chef for this experimental baking. Please let me introduce Sous [...]

Gluten Free, Soy Free All Purpose Flour Mix

Sometime in my early days of gluten free baking I learned the following:

Truth #1: Gluten free baking takes longer than non-gluten free baking.

Truth #2: I still have only 24 hours per day.

Conclusion: If I’m ever going to get around to cleaning the kitchen or folding laundry, I need to reduce the amount of time allocated [...]

Gluten Free Sugar Cookies

This is the third of four posts on How to Bake Sugar Cookies. We’ve already learned how to cream butter and sugar, and performed some related experiments. This post will cover the basic Gluten Free Sugar Cookie recipe. And then after Christmas I’ll write a post on how to roll out the cookie dough. [...]

Gluten Free Southern Cornbread

Hi everyone! I’m reposting this recipe as I have updated it with a picture of the batter immediately after being poured into the hot skillet. One of the advantages of learning to cook with someone in person is being able to see how things look. Hopefully, this picture will be a step in that direction [...]

Gluten Free Bread & Bread Machines

A Flour Shortage
We’ve been waiting for our 25 lb. bag of brown rice flour from Bob’s Red Mill forever! The gluten free oats that we ordered with it were back-ordered and the shipping people at Bob’s Red Mill were waiting to send us everything in one shipment. A quick call fixed this problem, but [...]

John’s Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Friends that make gluten free food for you are friends to keep. Years ago we were playing board games with our old college roommates and my roommate made gluten free Peanut Butter Cookies for John (I didn’t know I had problems with gluten at that point). You’ve probably seen the recipe for the cookies that [...]

Do You Know the Muffin Man?

Monday morning I was attempting to clear a path through the dirty dishes when I came upon an extremely ripe banana. With no idea what we were having for breakfast, I took this as a sign that we should have Banana Nut Bread. What followed was a typical early morning cooking experience in the Pickett [...]

Gluten Free Banana Nut Pancakes

I seem to be on a pancakes kick these days. John’s parents and sister are visiting us this weekend, so I needed a relatively easy, big breakfast for this morning. Pancakes seemed perfect and since I wanted to post something today too, I decided to make up a new recipe. Thus were banana nut pancakes [...]

Gluten Free Spiced Apple Pancakes

The fall air has made it back to Alabama this morning and it is lovely. A perfect day to drink hot tea on the deck and enjoy the cool air, sunshine, and birds. It was also a perfect morning to play with my pancake recipe.

The Gala apples that have been sitting in the fruit bowl [...]

Gluten Free Drop Biscuits Recipe No. 2

Gluten free breakfasts are a thorn in my side. My whole-grain loving self cannot stomach gluten free cereals and John only likes eggs for about two weeks a year. So for the last couple of months we’ve been eating a lot of pancakes, biscuits, and grits, and I and my scale are ready for [...]

Gluten Free Garlic & Cheese Biscuits

I can’t think of many things better than realizing that your recipe for Garlic & Cheese Biscuits is not quite right. Why? Because then you get to make Garlic & Cheese Biscuits for supper two
nights in a row!

These biscuits are based on my Drop Biscuits recipe and use my “Gluten Free All Purpose [...]

Gluten Free Pizza Recipe

Friday night in our house is a date night of sorts. We often put the babe to bed and then make homemade gluten free pizza while sipping on a cold gluten free beer. When the pizzas are done, we top them with Parmesan and red pepper flakes and head to the den to watch a [...]

Brown Rice & Buckwheat Sandwich Bread Recipe

One of my readers recently asked if she could substitute a non-bean flour for the soybean flour in the “Really Good Sandwich Bread” recipe. I did some research and responded back to her that I thought sorghum flour or buckwheat flour would work well as a substitution. Last night, I picked up some buckwheat [...]

Finally, Really Good Sandwich Bread: Our Favorite Gluten Free Bread Recipe

Sandwiches are a staple of our diet. When John first started a gluten free diet we searched through grocery store after grocery store hunting the elusive frozen rice bread that our internet searches indicated should be there. We finally found some and, upon trying it, promptly spit it out. It was horrible! John kept eating [...]

Gluten Free Drop Biscuits Recipe

My husband loves biscuits. In the pre-gluten free days, one of his favorite Saturday morning breakfasts was a sausage and cheese biscuit. For years we used gluten free loaf bread for our breakfast sandwiches, but a recent trip to Whole Foods inspired me to try my hand at biscuits. I have to say, these taste [...]

Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Mix Recipe

The gluten free item that I most often reach for is my homemade all-purpose flour mix. When I first started cooking gluten free foods I bought Gluten Free 101 by Carol Fenster and rushed home to bake some goodies for my GF husband. I eagerly flipped to the section on flour blends and was incredibly [...]
