Betty Crocker’s PR team requested that I share information about the Betty Crocker Baker’s Challenge Gluten Free Recipe Contest with my readers. I gladly share with you the information they sent me. All you need to do is create (or perhaps you already have one of your own), a gluten-free holiday recipe and submit it. The Grand Prize is $5,000 plus a gluten-free baking gift basket! Good luck to all who enter!
