And because it uses my gluten free baking mix it is so quick and easy to make.

This gluten free blueberry coffee cake would work perfect for a special breakfast or lunch, but it also makes a great dessert.

I adapted this gluten free version from a recipe I found in a Bisquick cookbook. I am so glad that the gluten free version of this worked so well.

Gluten Free Impossible Brownie Pie

Gluten Free Impossible Brownie Pie

Impossible pies are some of the most popular recipes using that big yellow box of baking mix, so I am having fun trying and adapting them to work with my gluten free baking mix.

Gluten Free Impossible Brownie Pie was one of the recipes that I adapted over the holidays that my family loved.

It is a pretty quick and easy dessert. It is nothing fancy, but it is really good. Especially served warm with vanilla ice cream. Delicious!

Easy Gluten Free Drop Biscuits

Easy Gluten Free Drop Biscuits

I have shared a couple of biscuit recipes both in the ebook and here on GF Mixes, but they are for biscuits with things like sausage, pepperoni, and cheese mixed into them.

Several of you have requested a basic biscuit recipe, and although I have made them many times using my homemade baking mix, I have never shared a plain basic biscuit recipe with you. Today I am fixing that and am sharing the recipe.

This is the same basic recipe as my other biscuits, but without the add ins. For gluten free biscuits I have found drop biscuits easiest. They are not quite the same, but it works well because gluten free dough tends to be stickier and a little harder to work with since it is missing the gluten.

If you prefer a rolled out and cut biscuit, just pat this dough out on a surface that is dusting with baking mix, or other gf flour, and then cut and bake like you would a regular biscuit.

These gluten free biscuits are perfect with my gluten free sausage gravy.

  5. Bake for 9-10 minutes.

Gluten Free Impossible Coconut Pie

Gluten Free Impossible Coconut Pie

Many of the recipes using my gluten free baking mix are based on recipes that use the mix in the big yellow box. However, most of the recipes need tweaking.

They need more water, more eggs, buttermilk instead of water, etc. I have only found a few recipes that it worked exactly right in without tweaking. Today’s recipe in one of them.

The impossible coconut pie recipe that has been around for years, needed no tweaking and no adapting. Nothing. All you do is use my gluten free baking mix in the recipe. It is that easy.

If this pie was a favorite of yours before you went gluten free, you really need to give this a try. If you have never had the impossible coconut pie, you need to try this. Really try this. It is so easy. So delicious. And it is gluten free!

Gluten Free Banana Pancakes

Gluten Free Banana Pancakes 2

 

One of my favorite ways to us the basic gluten free baking mix is in breakfast foods. But I guess that might be obvious by the Gluten Free Strawberry Scones and the Gluten Free Strawberry Pancakes I have already shared.

What I love about the mix is that it makes breakfast easy. I can have breakfast ready and on the table in no time.

This recipe for gluten free banana pancakes is the same basic recipe that I used for the Chocolate Chip Banana Oven Pancakes in my ebook, but these are made just like you would a regular pancake. I usually leave the chocolate chips out when I make them as regular pancakes, but if you want a special treat feel free to add a few in.

This is a simple and delicious gluten free breakfast that everyone will enjoy!
