Flour, GF Pillsbury and Bob’s Red Mill, Cup for Cup

In time for the Holidays! Have you tried either of these two new gluten free flours?

Pillsbury’s Brand New Gluten Free Flour Blend  has been spotted at area grocery stores.  A blend of rice, potato starch, pea fiber, tapioca starch and xanthan gum, it is meant to be a substitute for regular flour in your family recipes.

Bob’s Red Mill has also come out with  “1 to 1 Baking Flour”. Previously their GF flour had garbanzo bean that gave a bitter aftertaste to some baked goods. This new flour is made of sweet rice flour, whole grain brown rice flour, potato starch, whole grain sweet white sorghum flour, tapioca flour and xanthan gum.

Try either of these new flours in your recipes and let us know if it works for you!

Tate’s Bake Shop Cookies

I wanted to recommend Tate’s Bake Shop Ginger Zinger Cookies. I found them at West Point Market in Akron.  They have a really nice flavor and crisp texture and don’t taste gluten-free at all more like a real bakery cookie . The package weighs 8 oz and is $5.99. They also sell a gluten-free chocolate chip cookie  which I haven’t tried yet.  Their  packages states that the cookies are baked in a gluten-free facility.

Rudi’s Gluten-Free Stuffing

Rudi’s makes a Savory Herb Stuffing which is very good. I found it at Heinen’s in Brecksville. I was never one to use a  quick stuffing before I went gluten-free but, this one is really great. To make it you add boiling water and butter and let it sit for 5 minutes.  I added  boiling chicken stock in place of the water,  butter,  and added a handful of dried cranberries and it was  really good. I think you could serve it and people wouldn’t know you were using a gluten free mix.
