Egzandra Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 The other day as it was my husbamd's birthday we had some people round for cake and as one of our friends is gluten intolerant I decided to make the cakes gluten free (not having done anything like this before). I used the Doves Farm flour plus the gluten free baking powder and made the sponge using their recipe and then made another cake using cocoa and banana added to that basic sponge recipe. Both turned out fine and the cakes were enjoyed by all including hubby. I felt really chuffed and it was very easy to do. Just wondering if anyone here makes gluten free treats using their own blends of flour, like chestnut or other flours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I used to make gluten free mince pies for my dad. The pastry was a little bit crumbly but I just added a bit more Trex. He did wolf them down! I like the Doves Farm flours. Based in Newbury - we used to buy our bread flour there but we did have to buy in bulk. Don't know if that is still possible though.
