Gluten Free Breaded Chicken using Whole Grain Crackers

Gluten free breaded chicken is no different than regular chicken. I usually use homemade gluten free seasoned bread crumbs, however, this time I wanted something more nutritious. I chose to use Van’s gluten free crackers. They come in several flavors and they’re all whole grain. I used their Lots of Everything flavored crackers. I used chicken breasts for this recipe, however, you can do the same thing with chicken tenders. Meanwhile, they turned out moist and delicious. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Lemon Pie

This gluten free lemon pie is a bit different than lemon meringue pie, as it is a bit creamy – not much, just a tad. In addition, it still maintains a bright yellow color. You can use Greek yogurt, as I list below, or sour cream. Just make sure whichever you use is gluten free. Make additional filling if you are not going to top it with whipped cream or Cool Whip. You have your four choices of gluten free pie crust recipes, very flaky, or two more traditional crusts. Hopefully, you find one that calls for an ingredient you already have in your pantry. Enjoy!

Jerk spice is a very hot and spicy seasoning mixture popular in Jamaica. It can be made applied to meat wet or as a dry rub. This gluten free version of jerk chicken can be made with mild peppers. I used canned green chiles. If you’re a brave sole you can use hotter chiles such as habanero and jalepeno peppers*. They pack a deadly heat, but I’ve provided some pointers for you in the tips section. Habanero peppers are the hottest chiles easily found in the U.S. and are a bit tangy. Jalepeno contain a moderate heat in comparison to habanero peppers, but is still too hot for me. They are also a bit sweet, similar to bell peppers. No matter which peppers you use, if you like a bit of spice, I’m sure you’ll enjoy this recipe. Continue reading “Jerk Chicken (Gluten Free)”

I put off developing a recipe for gluten free croissants for way too long. After multiple requests, here it is! I used my new gluten free phyllo dough recipe. Though it calls for superfine rice flour, I will be experimenting in the future with non superfine gluten free flours. I baked them after my husband went to bed one night and left 5 out, loosely covered. with a note stating to have as many as he’d like. I made them with tapioca flour/starch, which I am allergic to. (I had a couple anyways. Oh my!) When I woke up the next morning they were all gone. That night be kept raving them about them. I have never heard him enjoy anything, gluten free, more than these. And he still eats gluten! Meanwhile, I will continue to improve upon this recipe each time I make them. I hope you enjoy them as much we have. Continue reading “Flaky Gluten Free Croissants”

Gluten Free Chicken Mole (Mild)

Mole is a flavorful Mexican sauce that contains just a tad bit of chocolate. (Chocolate is great in chili, as well.) It usually contains plenty of hot chiles, but this gluten free chicken mole does not. Because chicken tenderizes so quickly it is a fairly fast recipe. When all is said and done you have a rich sauce covering moist, tender pieces of chicken. Instead of serving this with gluten free tortillas, you may serve it with soft naan bread (Indian flatbread). I have provided links to all of my gluten-free tortilla and naan recipes in the Serving Suggestions section. This recipe was adapted from Authentic Mexican Mole Chicken and Chicken Mole. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Pineapple Upside Down Cake

I’ve had a number of Facebook fans ask me for a gluten free pineapple upside down cake recipe over the years and I always plan to get right on it, but somehow do not. It’s my husband’s favorite, too! So, finally, yesterday when someone asked me for a recipe again, I developed a recipe immediately and baked it today. It turned out light and high with a perfect, moist texture. I was very pleased. So, without further ado, here is my new gluten free pineapple upside down cake. My husband requests this cake every year for his birthday and he doesn’t even need to eat gluten free.
