processed foods as well as all flour & sugar products
I honestly thought
"What the heck is left??????"
After a little research and a lot of searching,
I discovered that "FLOUR" does not just
come from WHEAT!!
At first I seriously had an adverse reaction to
SPELT, RICE, QUINOA, POTATO
and all the other "FLOUR's" available.
I didn't have a lot of interest in them-
and than one day,
I was really missing muffins-
yes of all the things I had to eliminate
I missed MUFFINS!!
So I began a search and I found several different
muffin, scone, biscuit type recipes
all using these amazing flours-
so I tried one recipe,
and than another
and than another!
I will tell you-
NOT all wheat free recipes are created equal,
but this one is a winner.
We all liked it,
all ate them and in the end,
this is one recipe that has been added the
MY SISTER'S COOKBOOK-
which is the mother of all cookbooks!
(at least at this house)
Share this with someone you love
who can't eat flour-
(or someone you know who can)
they will love you forever :)
