I haven’t had a doughnut (donut) since I started my gluten-free diet. I didn’t really miss them, but enjoy the challenge of gluten-free baking. These gluten free doughnuts are baked, making them healthier than the standard recipes, as they are usually deep fried. In addition, some whole grain flours were used to provide additional health benefits, as well as agave and molasses. They taste much like the real thing! I think you’ll be very pleased. You can play around with this recipe substituting 1/4 cup of your favorite flour for one of the others. Add in your favorite baking seasonings or extracts, too. Experiment and have fun!

Gluten Free Hamburger Buns – Yeast Free!
I promised everyone, some time ago, gluten free yeast free recipes. Here is my new fave! Miniature gluten free hamburger buns, yeast free! I didn’t think they were going to be very good, as they are a little heavy, but oh my! – They are delicious! My husband and I had 3 as part of an early dinner today. Next time I am going to try just using egg white instead of the 2 eggs to make them lighter, but we are truly happy as they are. Continue reading “Gluten Free Hamburger Buns – Yeast Free!”
Gluten Free Horns
A crisp, flaky pastry is something many people miss on a gluten free diet. I decided to create a recipe for gluten free horns because I have been wanting to test out my cream horn molds. I decided to use my gluten free quick phyllo dough recipe instead of my gluten-free cannoli shells since the cannoli shells are deep-fried and the phyllo dough may be baked. They came out crisp, golden brown, flavorful and outright delicious! Continue reading “Gluten Free Horns”

Gluten Free Cheddar Cheese Potato Chips Recipe (or Plain)
One would think making your own gluten free cheddar cheese potato chips would be easy an easy endeavor, however, it took much research and finally experimenting on my own to create this recipe. I wanted a fried potato chip, but not too brown (burnt tasting), as I saw in many other recipes online. I had other concerns, as well. Did I soak them in cold water first? If so, did this make them more crisp or just prevent browning of the raw potato? Or would that cause the temperature of the oil to drop too much? I share my research below, but you can skip ahead to my successful recipe below for cheddar cheese potato chips. Continue reading “Gluten Free Cheddar Cheese Potato Chips Recipe (or Plain)”
Berry Cheesecake Gluten Free Pancakes
In an attempt to use up some cream cheese I had in the refrigerator, I thought about creating a cream cheese gluten free pancakes recipe. At first, I thought of just spreading the cream cheese between the pancakes. Then I thought, what about if I could taste gooey chunks of cream cheese in the middle? – and then top them with strawberries, blueberries or blackberries? That would make a cheesecake pancake! I ended up adding some to the batter creamed, and the rest in chunks. Oh my! – very filling and much like a dessert without all the refined sugar!
You can be very creative with this recipe. Add blueberries to the batter, etc. Continue reading “Berry Cheesecake Gluten Free Pancakes”

This wonderful gluten free pork tenderloin recipe comes to us from 250 Gluten-Free Favorites by Donna Washburn and Heather Butt, published by Robert Rose.

I like the naturally sweetened ones or birch derived xylitol ones. Hungry anyone? Continue reading “Marmalade-Glazed Gluten Free Pork Tenderloin”
Gluten Free Curried Grilled Halibut
Dr. Claudia Pillow provides us with this healthy recipe for grilled halibut which calls for curry, and explains the health benefits of this little wonder spice.
Curry powder contains turmeric. In India, turmeric is promoted as an anti-inflammatory herbal remedy and is said to produce fewer side effects than commonly used pain relievers. Some practitioners prescribe turmeric to relieve inflammation caused by lupus, arthritis, muscle sprains, swelling, and pain caused by injuries or surgical incisions. It is also promoted as a treatment for rheumatism and as an antiseptic for cleaning wounds. In addition, turmeric contains the antioxidant curcumin, which has been found to hinder the growth of mutated cells associated with cancer of the breast, skin, and colon, as well as lymphoma. Curcumin can kill cancer cells in laboratory tests and also has been found to shrink animal cancer tumors (1). Continue reading “Gluten Free Curried Grilled Halibut”
