Chocolate Chip Gluten Free Banana Bread
We love quick breads like banana bread. But, sometimes we want them to be a bit different. The nice thing about this recipe is you can easily change things up. Don't want chocolate chips? Try pecans or walnuts, or raisins, or dried cranberries. The possibilities are limitless!

  3. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until well blended
  4. Mash bananas with the milk in a separate bowl and set aside
  5. In another bowl, combine remaining dry ingredients.
  6. Alternately mix about 1/3 of dry ingredients and 1/3 of bananas into the egg mixture until all are combined.
  7. Bake for 1 - 1 1/2 hours. Check during last 1/2 hour for doneness by inserting toothpick or cake tester.
  8. Allow to cool on wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.
Recipe Notes

There's a wide range of time for baking due to different baking speeds for different types of pans. Once you know how long your pan and oven take, you can lock that in as the baking time. Also, if you don't have a cake tester, just use a metal turkey lacer (it works really well!).

Gluten Free Pumpkin Cheesecake

November 4, 2016 By Terry Leave a Comment

Recipe by: SEAMSTERRIFIC

“When my mother was undergoing chemotherapy for the cancer that eventually took her life, I came up with the basic recipe for the cheesecake. It was one of the few foods that she really enjoyed and would stay down. Now my granddaughter has a gluten allergy, so I’ve adapted the recipe for her by using the gluten-free crust instead of the original graham crumb crust. I think I like this version better!”

Ingredients
Crust:
  • 1 cup almond meal
  • 1/2 cup crushed slivered almonds
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
Filling:
  • 2 8 ounce packages cream cheese softened
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 1 3/4 cups pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Crust:
  • 1 cup almond meal
  • 1/2 cup crushed slivered almonds
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter

  • 2 8 ounce packages cream cheese softened
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 1 3/4 cups pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Whisk almond meal, slivered almonds, 1/4 cup sugar, baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon together in a bowl; stir in butter until almond mixture is evenly moistened. Pour almond mixture into a 10-inch springform pan and press firmly into the bottom.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until crust is set, about 10 minutes. Remove crust from oven and reduce temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Place a pan of hot water onto the bottom rack of the oven to help reduce cracking in the cheesecake.
  4. Beat cream cheese, sour cream, pumpkin puree, 1 cup sugar, eggs, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ginger, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl using an electric mixer, scraping bottom and sides of bowl frequently, until filling is smooth. Pour filling over hot crust.
  5. Place pan on the center rack in oven and bake until cheesecake peaks in the center, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature before removing sides of pan. Transfer cheesecake to a serving plate and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Chill in refrigerator before serving, at least 2 hours.

September 3, 2016 By Terry Leave a Comment

Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

What if you need a delicious dessert for a family get together tonight. . .and it has to be gluten free? Here is a quick and easy idea I came up with using BETTY CROCKER GLUTEN FREE YELLOW CAKE MIX and some portions of a recipe from THE GLUTEN-FREE GOURMET COOKS FAST AND HEALTHY by Bette Hagman.

Ingredients
Cake Batter
  • 1 box Betty Crocker Gluten Free Yellow Cake mix If not making gluten-free, adjust ingredients accordingly
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 2 tsp vanilla if making gluten-free, use only gluten-free vanilla
  • 3 eggs
Pineapple Topping
  • 1 28 oz. can pineapple slices
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar may use less, if desired
  • whipped cream may use non-dairy topping
Instructions
  1. Heat oven according to the directions on the back of the box. DO NOT GREASE BOTTOM OF PAN.
  2. Beat cake mix, water, butter, vanilla and eggs in large bowl on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
  3. Melt 1/3 cup butter (or less, I use 2-3 Tbls) in an ungreased baking pan (I use an 8” square glass baking dish). Scatter on 1/2 cup (or less) brown sugar. Arrange canned pineapple slices over the sugar mix. Pour cake batter over the pineapple and bake.
  4. Bake according to directions on the back of the box (based on altitude and size of pan you are using) adding 4 to 5 extra minutes baking time (due to the pineapple mixture) or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  5. Run a knife around the edges to loosen and cool completely. Turn upside-down onto serving platter so the pineapple is on top.
  6. Serve warm or cold topped with whipped cream or nondairy whipped topping, if desired. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes

Do not overbeat the mix. If you do, it will rise in the center, which can cause it to crack when you flip it over.
