check out the King Arthur's Flour website they have several. Just type in gluten free in the search.

I've just started making gluten free recipes. A great place to start is the cookbook, Bob's Redmill Baking with Whole Grains. There are oodles of recipes that are gluten free! And they don't taste like cardboard!

We are gluten free too. Our absolute favorite company for mixes is Pamela's. The bread mix makes fantastic bread. www.pamelasproducts.com How well I understand the recipe frustration! We've had many expensive flops!

Another great flour is Jules Gluten Free Flour. Pricey, but great for when you have an unbearable craving for something you can no longer have. It's a one-for-one substitute. www.julesglutenfree.com

Peanut Butter Cookies
1 c peanut butter
1 c sugar
1 egg
Mix all. Roll into walnut size balls, roll in sugar, flatten with a fork on cookie sheet. Bake 350 for 12-15 minutes. Watch closely the burn easily. These are really good and yes there are only three ingredients. My grandkids love these. I guarantee this recipe works. I have found cheaper peanut butter works better for some reason.

Cozynana,
I have to agree the cheaper peanut butter works so well with this recipe.

Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread, and pumpkin pie. ~Jim Davis

I have been there.....and I know how frustrating it can be!

Check out Bette Hagman's cookbooks. I have two of her titles "The Gluten Free Gourmet - Revised" and "The Gluten Free Gourmet Bakes Bread". Every recipe I have ever tried from these two books has been good. My very favorites recipes are the sticky bun and the Danish Pastries in the bread book. Her books are where I discovered that gluten free bread can actually taste good! I make recipes from these books all the time and my family never notices that it's gluten free. My parents even use several of the recipes even though they aren't on restricted diets.

Another book I have is "The Food Allergy Cookbook" by Marilyn Gioannini which has several great recipes too.

I found that once I started making my own flour mixes I could control the flavor and texture which freed me from cardboard syndrome. I don't care for the beany flavor of many of the commercially packaged gluten free flour mixes, so I was really in heaven when I found Bette's bread book.

I'll have to check out the Jules gluten free flour and the Bob's Redmill book as I use many of his products on a regular basis.

Thanks for the suggestions!


Cheers! ~ Marilyn

I Use Bette Hagman's flour recipe. Her basic works for most recipes and if you need something a little lighter she has a feather light recipe too! Right now im working on making my own rice flours. Gluten free girl is a good place for recipes. Yum tasty! She is a bit of an expensive cook though. believes in high cost groceries but I use all my cheap stuff and its still good. Try budget 101 for some good homemade mix recipes. I use the rice recipes and DH loved the shake and bake recipe. They have the best cornbread recipe too! In the gluten free mix section I dont buy mixes if I can help it. When I do its "bobs red mill". There white cake is soooo yum! Better than regular white cake. I have a good corndog recipe!!

For flour I use bette hagmans basic flour recipe. I try to use it for all my recipes. :) any GF flour will work though.

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
2 cups yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons sugar
1 ½ tablespoons baking powder
2 ½ cups buttermilk
Special equipment: Thick wooden pop sticks

For the corn batter:

Preheat deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.

While chilling dogs, prepare batter. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, egg, cornmeal, garlic powder, sugar, baking powder and buttermilk.

Place the remaining 1 cup of flour onto a large plate. *Dredge chilled dogs into flour then dip into the batter and fry in the hot oil for 3 minutes or until dark and golden brown. Remove to a paper towel lined sheet tray to drain.
