Gluten Free Waffles

Our family has found a new favorite weekend breakfast – gluten free waffles! You all know that we’ve been on the gluten free diet for years now, so that first bite of homemade waffles was absolute heaven!  We stuffed ourselves!

The recipe is a  conversion of the “Basic Waffles” recipe in Joy of Cooking. The only [...]

Chicken Fajita Quesadillas

During the month of February I will be featuring some of my recipes that have recently been on the menu for Gluten Free Suppers.  Many of these recipes have not been published at Gluten Free Cooking School before because they are from my childhood or our pre-vegetarian days. And since they contain meat, I don’t [...]

Breakfast on a Budget – Cream of Corn Cereal

The theme for January’s posts is Kitchen Management – things like gluten free grocery shopping on a budget, stocking a gluten free pantry, and how to clean a messy kitchen.  The posts will be shorter and more frequent than normal (since I won’t have to multi-test as many recipes) and there will be several chances [...]

Eggnog French Toast

This is a picture of my stove the morning after Christmas.

The monkey bread that I made on Christmas morning was a little dry and the only milk-like substance in the house was a half empty carton of Silk Eggnog.

So my little elf helper and I pulled out “Joy [...]

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 [...]

The Linguistic Challenges of Slicing an Avocado

When I posted my recipe for Black Olive Hummus I mentioned that I love hummus sandwiches with sliced avocado, tomato and lettuce. Amy B asked how one should go about slicing an avocado, so I took a few pictures to demonstrate my method. How do you slice an [...]

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 [...]

Black Olive Hummus: A Quick, Frugal Gluten Free Snack

Black Olive Hummus is my fall-back recipe when we need a quick appetizer. We always keep chickpeas and olives on hand and I can whip up a batch of this in less than five minutes for a hungry babe or hungry [...]

How to Make Scones Like a Bakery

One of my favorite things about scones is their shape. There’s just something about that wedge that makes a scone something more than a slightly sweet biscuit. A lot of the scones recipes that I’ve found online call for making drop scones, but it’s really easy to take a few extra minutes to cut the [...]

Minty Purple Peach Smoothie

Today is the first day of the 6 week Eat to Live trial and I opted for a fruit smoothie for breakfast. I picked up fresh Chilton County peaches at the produce stand yesterday and decided to pair them with frozen blueberries and fresh mint for a very refreshing start to the morning.  I [...]

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 [...]

Sweet Baby Banana! A Fun Fruit Topping Your Kids Will Love

Last week when I was cruising the aisles of Whole Foods I found a treasure in a pile of bananas. Hidden beneath the plain Jane normal bananas was a whole hand of baby bananas! I haven’t found a good picture, but each baby banana is about as long as an adult finger. There are 15 [...]

Pumpkin Stuffed French Toast

We’re having our first freeze tonight and our house is cold. I’m bundled up in my favorite college sweatshirt with my hands wrapped around a mug of hot chocolate. It seems like the perfect night to write about a warm comfort food breakfast.

Sunday morning we were up early since David didn’t realize 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 [...]

Black Bean Sausage Recipe

Over the past week I’ve been working on simplifying our breakfasts. We’ve had a lot of smoothies, fruit salad, and toast and there will be some new recipes coming soon. This weekend I made a batch of “Gluten Free Drop Biscuits Recipe No. 2″ and these black bean sausages.

You don’t have to be a vegetarian [...]

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 [...]

Mushroom & Broccoli Quiche Recipe

I walked into the kitchen this past Saturday morning, babe in arms, and wondered what in the world we were going to have for breakfast. For the past few months our weekend breakfasts have been a regular rotation of my gluten free pancakes or my gluten free drop biscuits, and we were definitely ready [...]

Gluten Free Pancakes

Just in time for the weekend, here is one of our favorite breakfasts: gluten free pancakes.

2 1/3 c. “Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Mix Recipe”
2 Tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. baking powder

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 [...]
