Gluten Free Lady Fingers Recipe

Homemade Gluten Free Lady Fingers

You can easily make this gluten free lady fingers recipe by using my gluten free sponge cake recipe. (I have two recipes on this site for sponge cake, but I used the one calling for superfine rice flour.) The amount you make will vary, depending upon which pan you use. There are lady finger pans available, but you can get away with using a Hostess Twinkies Pan. You can also use a jelly roll pan and cut up individual pieces of cake. However, that method doesn’t look as nice and you are taking the chance of the cake crumbling. If you do try this method, prior to slicing, refrigerate the cake at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Meanwhile, now you can make traditional tiramisu and more!

Fluffy Gluten Free Biscuits with Gooey Cookie Dough Centers

Cookie Dough Balls Wrapped with Fluffy Gluten Free Biscuits

When you bite into these warm, fluffy gluten free biscuits, you bite into a gooey texture. What is it? It is chocolate chip cookie dough. It’s sweet meets salty with a buttery texture. My husband exclaimed, “I’ve never had anything like this before,” as he continued eating. I had to laugh, though, when he said that the biscuits are so light and the centers and so creamy that he doesn’t need teeth to eat them. He did clarify later that they melt in your mouth when fresh out of the oven. Is it better than my raved about Fluffy Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls? You be the judge!

Gluten Free Sponge Cake Using Copycat Betty Crocker Mix

Homemade Gluten Free Sponge Cake

When you wish to make a recipe that that has a lot of liquid, pudding, custard, etc., it is best to use a sponge cake versus a regular cake. Sponge cake absorbs liquid, can withstand refrigeration without becoming soggy, and is spongy/springs back when touched. This recipe provides all of that.

While experimenting on a different recipe I discovered how to use my Copycat Betty Crocker Gluten Free Yellow Cake Mix to make a sponge cake. Unlike the original gluten free Betty Crocker yellow cake mix, I’ve discovered a way to use my copycat recipe to create a two-layer dessert. Usually, there is only enough to make a decent size coffee cake. You can even use this recipe to make lady fingers using this Lady Finger Pan. Soon, I will post a lady fingers recipe as well as a no-fuss tiramisu-style cake recipe using this sponge cake soon. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Sponge Cake Using Copycat Betty Crocker Mix”
