The Pure Pantry Gluten Free Baking Mix Review and Giveaway

I cannot tell you how many times I’ve tried a gluten free baking mix and have been utterly disappointed. The Pure Pantry gluten free baking mixes are an exception, by all standards. The owner, Elizabeth Kaplan, author of “Fresh From Elizabeth’s Kitchen,” had such confidence that our baking reviewer would love these mixes that she also offered to sponsor a gluten free giveaway long before our review. You won’t want to miss this one, as her products are known to be exceptional! Read on to find out what our baking reviewer, Danielle has to say about these amazing gluten free baking mixes, and enter the giveaway!

The Pure Pantry Gluten Free Mixes – my new best friends

What a special treat to have been asked to review The Pure Pantry’s bakings mixes. I have to admit, when they arrived I was totally overwhelmed at having the opportunity to review ALL SEVEN of their mixes, but it turned into an absolutely delightful kitchen experience.

First of all, let’s talk about the products themselves, then I’ll tell y’all what I did with them… All products are gluten, dairy, casein, nut, egg and soy free; certified Kosher and Vegan; processed on gluten-free equipment, contain no refined sugars or preservatives – can it get any better? Well yes, gluten free baking mix bakes up and tastes incredible, either as directed or by getting creative. Let me explain and you’ll see how and why I am in love with this company and their mixes!

The Pure Pantry Gluten Free Organic Baking Mixes

The organic buckwheat and flax pancake and baking mix made no fail pancakes, exactly as directed – light, fluffy and tasty. Directions so simple my husband was able to follow them without a hitch! And, just eating the pancakes I could imagine how perfect the mix was (and will be) for making the recommended banana nut bread recipe on the side of the package. The old fashioned chocolate chip cookie mix was divine, and it even had little mini chocolate chips which are my favorite. The organic sugar cookie mix was one of those definite stock up items before the holidays. To test and review, I made layered mocha cookie bars which were amazing, but the sugar cookie dough itself tasted so wonderful as I used it, as is, to layer the bars, they almost didn’t get into the oven. Now I can’t wait for Christmas and cookie cutters! With the wholegrain dark chocolate cake mix I used their recipe for chocolate pound cake, adding my peppermint chips and it was probably the best chocolate pound cake I’ve ever had. Perfection in a slice! Could it get any better? Yes!!! Their organix old fashioned pancake and baking mix made perfect scones! I’ve got to say, this mix totally outdid itself in my book! The final test – the organic all purpose baking mix made the perfect crust for my cherry cheese coffee cake! More of a cookie type crust which was outstanding, and now I can’t wait to make little tarts and more with the rest!

I’ve not found a refined sugar free mix of any type that tastes nearly as good as these mixes do, especially cookie and cake mixes! How can it be? Apparently only the wonderful folks at The Pure Panty know that secret….

  1. Hi! Thank you for these reviews. We are just starting GF with our family, but especially my daughter and it’s not easy. She is requesting an angel food cake and I would love to make her something similar to the old flour version. Do you know if there are any recipes available for angel food cake made with this baking mix? Any advice from reviews would be so helpful too. Thanks so much!

    1. Hi Mindy,

      I just too a peak at the recipe at http://thepurepantry.com/recipes/ . I did not find an angel food cake recipe, but I will definitely add it to my list of recipes to create. I do not use this mix myself, but Danielle, the reviewer absolutely loved them! Meanwhile, perhaps using any gluten recipe will do along with using my gluten-free all-purpose flour blend recipe at http://glutenfreerecipebox.com/gluten-free-all-purpose-flour-blend . Just add about 2 tablespoons extra fat (oil or butter), and if necessary, enough liquid to create a normal texture of the batter. Usually 2 tablespoons of extra fat is sufficient.

      Good luck!
      Carla

  6. I would love to win, I have never tried this brand and the dark choc cake mix sounds yummy

  14. I would like to enter this contest because I would love to tr Pure Pantry mixes and they are not available in my area and ordering a new GF item gets expensive if you are not sure if you like the product, so this is a great opportunity to try something new

  35. Though we fortunately do not have anyone with a gluten intolerance in our household, we are always looking for healthier options.

  36. I would like to enter into the drawing. My best friend has Celiac’s disease which makes her allergic to gluten. Her disease has made her villi (small finger-like hairs) in her small intestine barely even existent to which her body is barely getting the nutrition it needs. We always have a girls night on Sunday where I make dinner and we just talk the night away. Since her diagnosis, I have learned to cook & bake gluten free and become more knowledgeable about gluten free products.

  41. I want to be entered in the giveaway. I am trying to go gluten free. but I am missing my baking and eating the results. If I could find mixes to use it would be wonderful.

  42. I liked Pure Pantry on FB. I Already liked GF Carla on facebook. Love your recipes!

    1. Roxanne,

      I find that if I follow too many people I cannot possibly keep up with it all. I miss so many of the tweets I really want to see. I do FB more than Twitter. I love the photos!

      Good luck!
      Carla
