Gluten Free Pull-Apart Potato Rolls (Gum-Free Option)

Gluten Free Breakfast Sandwich on a Homemade Potato Roll

My husband often stays at Hyatt hotels. He was recently raving about their Gallery Breakfast Sandwich which consists of a fried egg, bacon, and smoked gouda cheese on a potato roll, filled with gluten, of course. It looked delicious and I had been meaning to create a gluten free potato roll recipe for some time. I finally did! I converted a combination of this recipe from Taste of Home and King Arthur’s Easy Potato Rolls Recipe to gluten free. They turned out delicious! I just ordered some gouda cheese so I can make them at home and see what all of the fuss is about, but made this one with cheddar.

Gluten Free Spanakopita

Gluten Free Spanakopita Rolls

This gluten free spanakopita recipe is a Greek tradition. The filling consists of spinach, cheese, onions, egg, and seasoning. If you are vegetarian, you can substitute the cheese with tons of fresh herbs and silken tofu or use dairy-free cheese like Daiya or Follow Your Heart. Instead of using my Gluten Free Phyllo Dough Recipe, which is the traditional dough bakers use, I used my Gluten Free Puff Pastry Recipe to produce a puffier dough.

You may have previously seen the folded version, but rolled spanakopita is also a well-known way of making them. I prefer to roll them when serving to guests so that they know what they are eating. If it were up to my husband, the dough lover, he would prefer the folded method as it produces more crust.

I list out several choices of cheese to use in your gluten free spanakopita. I find it’s best to use a variety of cheeses. It combines all of the best flavors and texture from salty to creamy. Use what you have on hand or what you enjoy the most.

This is one way of getting kids to eat spinach. If you wish to make it healthier, feel free to substitute the leeks with additional spinach. Using leeks is a rural Greek tradition. Continue reading “Gluten Free Spanakopita”

Small Batch Gluten Free Pound Cake Streusel Muffins

Gluten Free Cinnamon Streusel Pound Cake Muffins

Betty Crocker makes a Cinnamon Streusel Muffin and Quick Bread Mix. It is not gluten-free. However, it provided the inspiration for these gluten free pound cake streusel muffins. I used my Heavenly Gluten Free Pound Cake Recipe but only made four muffins. There’s only two of us at home. So, if you want to make a small batch you may; or you can multiply the ingredients by three and make an entire dozen. Continue reading “Small Batch Gluten Free Pound Cake Streusel Muffins”

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”

Gluten Free St. Patrick’s Day Cookies

Homemade Gluten Free St. Patrick's Day Cookies

This recipe for gluten free St. Patrick’s Day cookies is incredible! They’re in between a shortbread and sugar cookie. Shortbread cookies contain more butter than sugar cookies which makes them a bit softer and richer. Everyone loves these cookies. Adding a little green or Irish theme makes them that more special.

Also, be sure to read my article on Gluten Free Food Coloring at the below link. If you’re dairy-free, be sure to see my suggestions on how to make gluten free cookies to your liking using Earth Balance in the Cut-Out Cookie recipe. In addition, I have added a substitute for gluten-free meringue powder in my Royal Icing recipe. Enjoy your St. Patrick’s Day and be safe!  Continue reading “Gluten Free St. Patrick’s Day Cookies”
