EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.

Puffed high, light, but still spongy-soft like crackers soaked in milk, this gingerbread is the best I've ever made.

If you don’t have a stand mixer, you can use your electric mixer, just stir by hand the last two additions of flour.

Good as always - Gluten Free Girl's recipes are usually excellent, however - I gave it a 4 instead of 5 because of the enormous ingredient list, the speciality factor of the ingredients, AND the complexity of it. The Gingerbread tastes just as it should - though a tad too fluffy for houses. I just think it HAS to be easier and cheaper to make. Gotta be a way to do it with Gluten Free Bisquick - instead of ten thousand different kinds of hard to find flours....
