With deer hunting coming to an end, at least in California, I thought I would share this amazing gluten free smoky venison stew recipe with you. I never used to eat venison until I developed this recipe. I created it in honor of Wright’s Liquid Smoke’s upcoming venison easy to enter contest where they will reveal three additional smoky venison recipes and giveaway a huge gift certificate. (Stay tuned in for details next week.) Because venison can be taste gamy, searing the meat covers the gamy flavor, as does smoked paprika and liquid smoke. If you happen to have some venison in your freezer (deer hunters often give some away), I hope you enjoy this recipe. (Wright’s Liquid Smoke is gluten-free.)

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Recipe
A gluten free pumpkin pie recipe with a traditional filling. The use of both granulated sugar and brown sugar create a caramelized flavor that is hard to resist.

Gluten Free Butter Cookies (French Sablés)
These gluten free butter cookies are named “sables” after the town in which they were first made in 1670, Sablé-sur-Sarthe, a town in West France. The word means “sand” which is fitting of these cookies as they are tender and have soft crumbs that crumble easily. They are also known as “sand butter” cookies. Generally you make them without eggs, but if you prefer, you may make them with heavy cream. Roll out and cut the dough. You can even sandwich them with your desired filling. However, the dough may simply be sliced and baked. Sables compliment custards, poached fruit, and other moist desserts, similar to biscotti. Of course, you can serve them with coffee, tea, or milk, as well. Continue reading “Gluten Free Butter Cookies (French Sablés)”

French Seedy Gluten Free Graham Cracker Recipe
Crackers aux Céréales is French for cereal crackers. I made this version of my gluten free graham cracker recipe when I recently stumbled up their existence. Europeans know food, and they have quite a few ideas that only seem to catch on in America if a well-known chef decides to duplicate one of their recipes here in the United States. These seedy crackers are served in France with breakfast. You may top them with the same condiments you use to top your toast. Use jam, nut butter, peanut butter, and even the famous nut cocoa spread, Nutella, which is extremely popular in Europe. It is made of hazelnuts and cocoa. Another option is to dunk them in coffee, tea, or milk. My version of these gluten free cereal crackers tastes like a gluten graham cracker with seeds on top. I hope you enjoy this recipe. There’s nothing like a little nutty flavor on breakfast food. Continue reading “French Seedy Gluten Free Graham Cracker Recipe”
