Amazing Gluten Free Pumpernickel Bread

Image: Gluten Free Pumpernickel Bread

When recently asked if I had a gluten free pumpernickel bread recipe, it gave me pause for thought as the gluten version of pumpernickel bread is made with rye flour, as well as others. Could I duplicate rye? Buckwheat flour is very close as a whole grain, and in color. Though many varieties of pumpernickel are a bit sour, I skipped the sourdough starter so that it would be easier for you all to make. I am not a fan of rye bread though this is not only my new favorite gluten free bread, it is my gluten-eating husband’s as well. It was amazing with swiss cheese! Pumpernickel is known for a soft crust, and this one definitely meets those expectations. Enjoy! Continue reading “Amazing Gluten Free Pumpernickel Bread”

Soft Gluten Free Naan (Indian Flatbread)

Oven-Baked Gluten Free Naan

Naan is luscious Indian flatbread, similar to a tortilla, but thicker. With one simple alteration, you can roll or pat them out thinner to use as tortillas. The flavor and texture are so good that they should be a sin to eat. By far, this gluten free naan is my most raved about recipe. People liken them to their gluten counterpart. Naan is full of possibilities.

Gluten Free Honey Graham Blondies (Egg-Free with Dairy-Free Options)

For the bottom layer of these gluten free blondies, or dessert bars, if you wish, I used my gluten free graham cracker recipe. I added a bit more honey and butter to soften the crust. You may add sweetened condensed milk, or for dairy-free, coconut milk and honey. After that you top it with your favorite toppings: chocolate chips, nuts, oatmeal, and/or shredded coconut. I skipped the coconut due to allergies. Of course, if you’re dairy-free you’ll use your favorite brand of dairy-free chocolate chips. I’ve listed the most popular, easy to melt brand below. Once baked and cooled, you have yourself treats for home or on-the-go! And they are made egg-free! Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Honey Graham Blondies (Egg-Free with Dairy-Free Options)”

Gluten Free Angel Food Cake

Gluten Free Angel Food Cake

Cake flour is used in angel food cakes because it contains low protein, which means less gluten. This makes baking a gluten free angel food cake ideal! Because cake flour is a finer texture than regular wheat flour, it is extremely important that you use a superfine gluten free flour for this recipe. I used my Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour Blend, which is made up of superfine white rice flour. You’ll find the link below. I use it in most of my baking recipes. However, I did not use my Gluten Free Cake Flour Blend recipe in this cake, as it contains leaveners such as baking soda and baking powder, which you do not want to add to an angel food cake. Angel food cake uses egg whites as the leavener, and a bit of cream of tartar to stabilize the egg whites and prevent them from drying out.  It contains no fat, making this an ideal dessert for waistline watchers!

Gluten Free Easter Bread

Braided Gluten Free Easter Bread Dough

It is an Italian tradition to make an Easter bread, which is usually on the sweet side. This gluten free Easter bread recipe is slightly sweet, but not very. Feel free to add additional sugar, if desired. I provide you with instructions on how to color your eggs using simple food coloring to the choices of braiding or twisting the dough. Make one large loaf to use as center piece or make mini versions for several tables if you have a large group to feed. Either way, I hope you and your family enjoy this festive treat! I hope you all have a wonderful Easter!

Be sure to read the comments below the recipe for variations from others who have made this recipe. Continue reading “Gluten Free Easter Bread”

Irish Coffee (Naturally Gluten Free)

In honor of St. Patrick’s Day and our partly Irish heritage, I hope you enjoy this gluten free Irish coffee recipe. Though Irish coffee is traditionally served with Irish whiskey, per the 2014 interim labeling rules, alcohol made from gluten grains should not be labeled gluten free. You can use sorghum whiskey, but vodka will do in a pinch. In addition, traditional Irish coffee is topped with either cream on or softened whipped cream. I chose stiff whipped cream, instead, as I believe it makes for a nicer presentation. Happy St. Patty’s Day to you all! (clink!) Continue reading “Irish Coffee (Naturally Gluten Free)”

Gluten Free Stuffing Muffins

Stuffing, aka, dressing, is not just for the holidays. I find that a great way to use stale or over-baked bread is to make muffins with your gluten free stuffing. They freeze well, and you can rebake them as needed, making them a great side dish for weeknight meals. I had left out some of the water in my Gluten Free Millet Bread Recipe, and it turned out dry. Stuffing appears to be my answer, as to not waste it. I’m really glad that I did, as it was surprisingly delicious! I’m not one to use a whole grain bread for stuffing. The flavor was superb, and made a great compliment to the ingredients. Whichever gluten free bread you choose, I hope you enjoy this recipe, as well. Continue reading “Gluten Free Stuffing Muffins”
