Gluten Free Ice Cream Sandwiches

Image: Gluten Free Ice Cream Sandwiches

My quest to develop a gluten free ice cream sandwich took much more time than I expected. I first tried to adapt my own moist Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Chocolate Cake recipe. I just left out the leaveners. However, it turned out very gummy and too chewy. In my search to adapt a gluten ice cream sandwich recipe, all recipes fell short of my expectations by viewing their photos. I couldn’t even turn to Martha Stewart or Joy of Baking, two of my favorite cooking sites. Continue reading “Gluten Free Ice Cream Sandwiches”

Gluten Free Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe (or Rocky Road)

Image: Gluten Free Chocolate Ice Cream

Sunday, July 21 is National Ice Cream Day. I am mid perfecting a gluten free ice cream sandwich recipe and have been experimenting with a new gluten free chocolate ice cream recipe. I have made chocolate ice cream with a bit of xanthan gum, but this one turned out the best so far. Adding gum to homemade ice cream helps prevent crystals from forming and it provides a bit of chew. Using additional cream also helps prevent ice crystals and hard ice cream. There’s nothing worse than hard homemade ice cream. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Donair Recipe – Meatloaf

Image: Gluten Free Donair

This gluten free donair recipe was adapted from Harvard University’s Donair recipe. Donairs are similar to gyros but better. The history behind donairs is very interesting. When Peter and John Kamoulakos tried to introduce their Nova Scotia restaurant clientele to lamb gyros, it did not go over very well. They changed the lamb to beef and created a sweet sauce (some say using evaporated milk, sugar, vinegar and garlic powder). Today there are two restaurants in Ontario, Canada named Halifax Donair (Halifax is a municipality [large city] in Nova Scotia). You will find many Canadian pizza restaurants serving donairs and donair pizzas. This gluten free donair recipe is my version of this very messy, yet savory and sweet fare.

Meatloaf

This meat also makes a wonderful meatloaf, especially when made with ground turkey. Continue reading “Gluten Free Donair Recipe – Meatloaf”

Gluten Free Pizzelles - Flat or Molded

A gluten free pizzelle recipe sure to make your Italian grandma proud. They’re crisp, but not too crisp to mold into your favorite shapes.

Every time I hit a milestone on how many Facebook followers I have, I ask my fans what gluten free recipe they would like me to create.

I went one step further, and made a true southern gluten free biscuit and gravy recipe by adding sausage to the gravy. This is optional, or you can even use the vegan substitute I list below. I hope my southern readers, as well as others, appreciate this delicious recipe. Continue reading “Southern-Style Gluten Free Biscuits and Gravy (with Dairy-Free and Vegan Options)”

Gluten Free Strawberry Ice Cream Recipe

This strawberry ice cream recipe is gluten free. Most ice cream recipes are except for the ones with addins that contain gluten. Made with old fashioned custard base, this recipe is creamy, but doesn’t freeze up as solid as many homemade ice cream recipes because of the added gum. It helps prevent crystals from forming and provides a bit of chew, just like commercial brands. You can add more xanthan gum, if desired. If strawberry ice cream is not your favorite, try another berry or fruit. Meanwhile, enjoy!  Continue reading “Gluten Free Strawberry Ice Cream Recipe”
