I have been eating gluten free for about a year and a half. I can cheat without really harsh symptoms but living with stomach aches just isn't worth the yummy food. For the first six months I tried baking gluten free but almost everything flopped or tasted disgusting. A few months ago I came across a flour blend recipe that can be used in place of regular flour. I take all my old favourite recipes and just use my flour blend instead. I have made brownies, cookies, lemon squares and muffins and haven't even been able to tell that something different was used. I thought I should share it with any of you who are in the same boat. Now you can enjoy all your regular food without having to give anything up!
2 cups brown rice flour
2/3 cup potato starch
1/3 cup tapioca starch
Sift together and store. When you take out 1 cup add 1 tsp xanthan gum to it.
3 Notes of love:
This is absolutely great - I often wanted to bake something for you (and others), but was intimidated.
