Biscuits
These work best with rice flour (so rice day it is!) These are a great alternative for bread and make great Almond or Cashew butter and jelly (use preserves with NO SUGAR) sandwiches (with NO yeast!)
1 3/4 cup rice flour
1/2 tsp sea salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
3 tbsp. chilled CF margarine
2 tbsp. vegetable shortening
2/3 cup water (if batter seems too crumbly add in 1⁄4 cup more water)
2 tbsp. melted CF margarine
Sift together flour, salt, powder & soda. Cut in chilled margarine and shortening until consistency of small beads. Form a well in the center of the mixture and add water. Mix into form dough. Kneed dough for 30 seconds on a rice floured board. Rollout using rolling pin into 1/2 “ thickness and cut into 2” rounds. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Brush top of biscuits with melted margarine. Bake 10 minutes until golden brown at 450 degrees. NOTE: Do not over cook, they become too hard!

Noah’s Bread
Noah’s bread is famous as a great GF CF bread replacement. Many folks use this recipe and LOVE IT!
Pre-heat the oven to 400 F.
Sift together:
1 1/2 cup tapioca starch
2 cup ground buckwheat, sesame seeds or other GFCF flour
1 cup corn starch (or Arrowroot )
3 tablespoons baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
In a separate bowl mix together
3 eggs (or 2 eggs + 1 banana - mashed) (or 1/2 cup soft tofu)
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cup CF milk substitute or water (I prefer the water)
2 tblsp vinegar or lemon juice
Combine the two bowls. Do not over mix. This blend is better done by hand than in a mixer. The batter should be thick almost to the point of being like cookie or biscuit dough. It will not pour.
Stir in:
1 cup Perrier or other sparkling water
(more water- not sparkling water - may be need if the batter is too thick) Use for muffins, bread, pancakes or waffles. Be sure to spray whatever you are cooking in with a safe vegetable oil spray before cooking.
This recipe works best in small forms like muffins, loaves of less than one pound, or even mini loaf pans.
Prewarm the oven to 400 F. Depending on what kind of pan you use will vary the length of time you cook the bread. You know when it is done by the browness of the finished bread. Typically I use a loaf pan and cook it for 20-25 minutes.

Pumpkin Bread
1 2/3 cup GF flour mix (rice flour, sorghum or garbanzo bean works great!)
1/2 cup honey OR maple syrup
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon allspice
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoons salt
3 eggs (or six quail eggs or 2 teaspoons arrowroot)
1 cup pumpkin (Libby’s or all pumpkin equivalent)
1/2 cup oil
3 tbsp. flaxseed meal (ground up flaxseeds)
Mix all ingredients well. Bake 350 degrees for 35 minutes into a greased bread pan. Recipe makes 1 loaf.
Note: this recipe can also make muffins – shorten baking time to 22 minutes and will yield about 12 muffins.

Sweet Potato Rolls
These are great snacks! I make these in interesting shapes. Jeff eats them up big time! (I like them too!)1 large sweet potato peeled & diced
1/4 cup almond or cashew butter - smooth
1/4 cup pear juice
3 tbsp. pure maple syrup
3/4 cup potato starch
1 1/4 cup potato flour
2 tsp. xanthan gum
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
Microwave sweet potato until tender, but not mushy. Blend in a food processor the sweet potato. Measure the potato you will need one cup Chill it 10 minutes. Blend all other ingredients and potato when cooled and work mixture by hand. Rollout dough using potato flour to 1⁄2” thickness. Cut circle shapes for cooking on a greased cookie sheet for 15 minutes - 450 degrees. Do not over cook! These become dangerous Frisbees when you do!

- Crackers - Quinoa crackers
1 cup quinoa flour
4 tbsp starch (tapioca works best, but you can use arrowroot as well)
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp xanthan gum
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp oil
6-8 tbsp water
Mix the dry ingredients together, make a well in the middle and add the oil and 6 tbsp water. Mix by hand adding more water until you are able to form a ball (you will have to use your hands to work the dough). Then roll out thinly (1/8th of an inch) between to sheets of parchment paper, cut into desired shapes and place on cookie sheet. You can prick them with a fork if you want them to resemble saltines but it is not necessary. Bake at 325 for 15-20 minutes depending how crunchy you want them.
I make this recipe using wild rice flour, amaranth flour, and I'm sure others would work as well. Just make sure you adjust the water to get a good consistency and that the dough is workable. These crackers are not fussy, and if you add too much water, just add a bit more flour.
