Gluten Free

There are a variety of gluten-free recipes, but my favorites are chocolate chip muffins, gluten-free pancakes, gluten-free macaroni and cheese, and, gluten-free pasta.

Instructions for the gluten-free chocolate chip muffins

  • Line 15 standard or 6 jumbo muffin cavities with paper liners or grease with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine baking flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
  • Add melted butter, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract.
  • Blend to combine.
  • Stir in chocolate chips (and walnuts, if using).
  • Fill prepared muffin cups 2/3 full.
  • Bake until golden brown.
  • A cake tester inserted in the center of a muffin should come out clean, about 18 minutes for standard muffins and about 22 minutes for jumbo muffins.
  • Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
  • Store muffins, wrapped, on the counter for up to three days or freeze for up to two months.
