Gluten Free Yellow Butter Cake

Gluten Free Cake with Dairy Free Whipped Cream

I already have a Gluten Free Yellow Cake Recipe on this site, but it calls for my Self-Rising Gluten Free Cake Flour Blend. Since creating that recipe over two years ago, I find that my Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Blend Recipe works much better in gluten free cake recipes, provided you add a bit more oil or butter compared to gluten cakes. This yellow cake recipe is much richer than a normal yellow cake. It contains tons of butter, is moist, but is not heavy like pound cakes. Use it as a substitute for any gluten free yellow cake. Feel free to decrease the butter to make a more traditional yellow cake. Meanwhile, all of your gluten-eating friends will even enjoy this cake.

Vegan Pumpkin Ice Cream

This is more of a sherbet than a vegan pumpkin ice cream, but is still extremely delicious for a diary free version. Since its development, I have discovered that adding one teaspoon of xanthan gum added to ice cream creates a more chewy texture. In this recipe you would need to mix about 1/2 teaspoon of gum with the oil. Note, that this is not a new recipe, but the original, published in 2010, seems to have vanished from this site. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

While I have a few recipes for chocolate chip cookies on this site, they are either double chocolate, soft, or a bit crunchy. This one is your typical chewy gluten free chocolate chip cookies. I don’t know why I haven’t developed a recipe for them earlier as they are one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we have.

Classic Gluten Free Waffle Recipe

You may be wondering the difference between a waffle and a pancake batter. A gluten free waffle recipe often calls for whole eggs. In this recipe, I have made them the traditional way, separating the egg yolks and whites. The whites are whipped until stiff and then folded into the batter at the end. This lends an airier texture to waffles versus an almost cake-like pancake texture. The other difference between waffles and pancakes is the fat content. Waffles contain more fat (oil or butter) which makes them crisper. Continue reading “Classic Gluten Free Waffle Recipe”

I have been wanting to make some yeast raised gluten free donuts, but was so excited when I discovered picarones. They are also risen donuts, but made with a sweet squash (pumpkin in this case) and sweet potatoes. They are also known as Peruvian donuts as they are popular in Peru. You can make these gluten free donuts using fresh or canned pumpkin. Just note that fresh pumpkin tends to vary in moisture and may not turn out the same. Meanwhile, enjoy these delightful treasures. Picarones leave a lasting impression to tourists who visit Peru.

Super Crunchy Gluten Free Bread Sticks Recipe (Breadsticks)

Crunchy Gluten Free Bread Sticks

This crunchy gluten free bread sticks recipe is so crunchy, I just had to share it with you. The recipe was inspired by the ingredients in Schar’s Gluten Free Breadsticks. They are much harder and crispier than Schar’s, but in gluten free bread sticks, this is a good thing. Other names for these bread sticks are grissini (thin, crisp Italian breadsticks) or dipping sticks. See my below notes to learn more. Then try them yourself.
