Recently, I made a chicken dish with brown gravy that tasted like stuffing/dressing. My husband and I loved it! I made the same gluten free gravy for Thanksgiving. I used a combination of dry and fresh herbs, but you can use all of one or the other. However, the flavor of ground thyme is difficult to substitute. Continue reading “Gluten Free Thanksgiving Gravy”
Because I am allergic to pumpkin, this gluten free sweet potato pie makes the perfect substitute. Actually, I think I enjoy this filling even better than pumpkin! I used pumpkin spices. It’s perfectly creamy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Sweet Potato Pie”
I like to blind bake pie crust for pies that contain custard-based fillings such as pumpkin, sweet potato, and custard. A chef shared a little secret which I implemented in this blind baked gluten free pie crust recipe. It calls for a simple ingredient already in your pantry. It keeps the crust nice and crunchy instead of soggy on the bottom. I used this recipe to make a sweet potato pie which I will soon share with you as well.

I’ve been in the kitchen attempting to achieve an exceptional gluten free Swiss roll recipe. It turned out perfectly moist and easy to roll. This is a feat for Swiss rolls as they are much thicker than jelly rolls. However, you can also make a jelly roll using this low-sugar recipe. Because jelly roll pans make a thinner and longer cake, you can achieve more swirls when you roll it. While I’ve supplied a recipe for cinnamon caramel filling, I also make a few other suggestions. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Swiss Roll or Jelly Roll with Dulce de Leche (Pumpkin Spiced or Cinnamon)”
We’re having a smaller dinner for Thanksgiving this year. Luckily, we all love the white meat of the turkey! So instead of making my gluten free roasted turkey recipe this year (see tips here), I’ll be roasting just breasts. If you’re cooking for a small crowd and enjoy white meat or need to cut back on fat in your diet, you’ll appreciate this recipe. I also link to other gluten free recipes and tips. Enjoy!

My raved about oat bread just got better. With a couple of minor changes, it now reminds me of the gluten-filled shepherd’s bread that I used to purchase at my local grocery store. You can make this gluten free oat boule right in your oven if you own a Dutch oven. Use a 4 or 5-quart. (Use up to a 7-quart, if that’s all you have. It’ll just be lower and wider.) It’s soft yet has a crunchy bottom crust which eventually softens if you leave it out at room temperature. It will keep it’s crunchiness if you freeze it until consumed. Meanwhile, enjoy this awesome bread! Continue reading “Gluten Free Oat Boule (or Sorghum)”
I had a Facebook follower request that I publish a recipe for gluten free wild rice dressing. This is a unique and flavorful dressing. You may substitute the chickpeas for walnuts and the raisins and cranberries for all of one or the other. Use this as a gluten free stuffing recipe as well. Continue reading “Gluten Free Raisin and Cranberry & Chickpea (or Walnut) Wild Rice Dressing – Stuffing”
I learned an old hack on how to simply make the fluffiest mashed potatoes. It’s so easy, you won’t believe it. I took an old recipe and adjusted the basic ingredients to balance out the flavor. You can adjust the stiffness or softness to your liking. Continue reading “The Fluffiest Mashed Potatoes (Make-Ahead Option)”
