Gluten Free Italian Easter Pie

Italian Gluten Free Easter Pie

Being raised in a half Italian, Catholic family, surprisingly, I wasn’t familiar with Italian Easter Pie until I ran across a recipe couple of years ago. It contains a sandwich filling which bakes right inside the bread dough. I’ve had it on my list of to do’s ever since. I finally created a gluten free Italian Easter pie. The dough is much like flatbread or rustic Italian pizza. The filling is traditional using ricotta cheese, ham, and eggs. I hope you enjoy it. It’s perfect for an Easter brunch. However, traditionally, it is served on Easter Saturday, the day before Easter. Continue reading “Gluten Free Italian Easter Pie”

Italian Gluten Free Meatballs

Italian Gluten Free Meatballs

Along the way, I’ve learned the key to making meatballs to prevent them falling apart, without being dry and flavorless. These gluten free meatballs have plenty of flavor, are moist, and stay together. You’ll love them with spaghetti/marinara sauce or as appetizers with a dip. However, you’ll be tempted to eat them right out of the oven. Yes. That’s right, oven! Continue reading “Italian Gluten Free Meatballs”

Gluten Free Ravioli Rolls

Gluten Free Ravioli Rolls Casserole

This recipe is from my upcoming cookbook, Carla’s Best 125 Gluten-Free Recipes. Picture lasagna noodles. Then spread on a luscious ravioli filling. Roll them up, and top with your favorite pasta sauce and mozzarella cheese. Lastly, bake until just lightly crisp on top. You can also use the filling in traditional ravioli. However, this is a much faster way of achieving the same flavors. Continue reading “Gluten Free Ravioli Rolls”

Gluten Free Chicken Canneloni with Homemade Pasta

This Italian dish is so rich and delicious that you can serve it to everyone. Using homemade, gluten-free egg pasta, covered with creamy sauce, marinara, or Bolognese/meat sauce, your family and guests won’t believe it’s gluten-free. Kids who “hate spinach” beg for second helpings of this gluten free chicken cannelloni. Serve it as a side or main dish. Continue reading “Gluten Free Chicken Cannelloni with Homemade Pasta”

Gluten Free Sourdough Bread Recipe

Homemade Sliced Gluten Free Sourdough Bread

Gluten-free sourdough bread is not as sour as traditional sourdough bread. However, a little sour may be all you need. This bread has a soft crust but toasts up nicely. The texture is similar to its gluten counterpart, which is often difficult to achieve in a gluten-free recipe. However, it is a little heartier. To most, its texture is worth the additional weight. Continue reading “Gluten Free Sourdough Bread Recipe”

Gluten Free New York-Style Pizza with a Thick or Thin Crust

Gluten Free New York Style Pizza

I have been pretty happy with my gluten free grilled pizza as a decent substitute for the lack of gluten, until now. This latest masterpiece (yes, I’ll toot my own horn here), is amazing! It has an artisan bread texture and creates the traditional cracks on the bottom of the crust, just like New York-style pizza. Grilling or using a pizza stone (if not both) is ideal for creating a gluten-like texture, which gives off a gluten-like flavor. I have been waiting to have a light bulb moment, and I finally did. Continue reading “Gluten Free New York-Style Pizza with a Thick or Thin Crust”

Savory Gluten Free Cannoli Appetizers

Gluten Free Cannoli Appetizers

There is an Italian dessert by the name of cannoli that consists of a deep-fried pastry shells filled with sweetened ricotta cheese. I altered this traditional dessert and created a savory cannoli, perfect for an appetizer. I filled mine with creamy ricotta cheese, peas, and basil. You can either make this soy-free or dairy-free. They make perfect appetizers for a party. I’m thinking New Year’s Eve! Continue reading “Savory Gluten Free Cannoli Appetizers”

Traditional Gluten Free Panettone Recipe

Buttery Gluten Free Panettone

I recently made a large-size Gluten Free Panettone (pronounced pan uh tony) in an angel food cake pan. Panettone is a rich, buttery Italian yeast-cake prepared during the Christmas season. I usually make panettone more like bread than cake as I did in the above recipe link. That version has a crunchy crust, much like homemade bread. However, I figured that many of you would prefer to have a traditional recipe with a soft, buttery texture. Continue reading “Traditional Gluten Free Panettone Recipe”

Gluten Free Chocolate Biscotti

Gluten Free Chocolate Biscotti with Hazelnuts

I love these gluten free biscotti because they are moist. You can also make them dryer, if that is what you prefer. I’ve including baking instructions for both. However, they are not so dry that you have to have something to drink nearby. I like my biscotti closer to shortbread cookies, with just a little less butter. I think you’ll fall in love with these biscotti. Please leave me feedback once you’ve made them in a below comment. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Chocolate Biscotti”
