20 min. Yeast-Free, Gluten-Free Italian Bread & Easy Mezzetta Olive Tapenade

My favorite holiday memories are of having lots of family and friends over for big meals. I love doing the cooking, preparing holiday recipes, the noise and laughter in the house, and of course, eating the food. I've happily adapted most of my old recipes to gluten-free but I had one more challenge. I was missing crusty chewy   Italian bread that I could make into Crostini! I've always loved warm toasted chewy bites of Italian bread at holiday parties. Topped with Tapenade or made into Bruschetta, they are my favorite appetizers, but I hadn't quite found the right gluten-free flour blend to achieve that wonderful chewiness, until now! I'm so excited to share my NEW 20-minute Gluten-free, Yeast-free, Egg-Free, and Xanthan Gum-Free Italian Bread Rolls with you and did I say, they only take 20 minutes? No yeast, no rising and so easy to make. This amazing dough is also perfect patted out thin for flatbread or pizza crust. Scroll down to see my new Pizza crust u

Baked Apple Fritter Doughnuts, gluten free

Baked Apple Fritter Doughnuts, gluten free
My husband adores the sticky fried apple fritters that you buy at the grocery store. I cringe when he picks them up, and I really hate that he's eating saturated fat, sugar and chemicals.
Did you know that a store bought Apple Fritter has 300 calories? Yikes!
So, today I made a healthy Gluten Free Baked Apple Fritter Doughnut recipe for him. I hoped would please him and they did!  That just made my day.  :)

  3. Good morning! The ingredients in Bob's Pancake Mix are potato starch, sorghum flour, tapioca flour, corn flour, evaporated cane juice, baking powder (sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium bicarbonate, corn starch, monocalcium phosphate), baking soda, sea salt, xanthan gum. I would try replicating with 1/4 cup ea. potato starch, sorghum, tapioca, corn flour (masa), 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon xanthan gum and more cane sugar to taste. I hope that works for you!
