Thanks Susanna! I have shared this with several of my GF groups on facebook. =)
Thank you so much for posting this! My son has autism and is on the GFCF diet so I am hoping this will help him feel included this holiday season
Kristina,
We’d love for you to share your experiences baking and hope this helps your son feel included!
Have fun experimenting and snap some pictures along the way!
Happy Baking.
Thank you for the gluten – free and Casein – free recipe. I was wondering if you also had a recipe that was gluten, soy, dairy, and egg free?
You can use ground flaxseed instead of eggs(1T flaxseed/3T water), and probably almond milk.
Oh, The 1 T flaxseed 3 T water equals 1 egg. Has to be ground flaxseed. Mix it together in a bowl, and let it sit for about 5 minutes on counter so it thickens up. Then just add in. You can’t even tell the difference!
Thank you Tammy! We’ll add your tips to Kitchen Notes! We appreciate your help.
