Gluten Free Baking
Edible Gift Idea - Tropical Fruity Mini-Loaf Bread
Coconut, Cranberries, Bananas and more.



This recipe made 6 mini-loaves.


Dry Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups almond meal
1/4 cup coconut flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsweetened finely shredded coconut
1/2 tsp cinammon


Wet Ingredients:
3 large ripe bananas
4 Flax Eggs  (1 tablespoon of Ground Flax + 3 tablespoons of Water) 
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp Orange Zest


Add-On Ingredient:
1 cup Fresh Cranberries

​
Topping Ingredients:
2 tbsp Chopped Walnuts
1/4 cup of sweetened shredded coconut for topping


Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350º F.

​
Make the flax egg by combining 1 tablespoon of Ground Flax with 3 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for about 5 min. 

In a large bowl combine all the dry ingredients. Mix together and break up any clumps of flour.

In a small bowl mash the bananas and then combine all the wet ingredients. Whisk well.

Pour wet ingredients into the dry and mix well until fully incorporated.

Stir in the cranberries.

Divide the batter evenly into the 6 mini-loaf pans. Make sure to fill only 2/3 of the pan. There needs to be a bit of room for the dough to rise.

Smooth out the top. Sprinkle shredded coconut and chopped walnuts on top of each loaf.

Bake for 30 minutes. Test with a tooth-pick to ensure it's cooked all the way through.

Remove loaves from the oven. Let them cool down.

I left the loaves in the little cardboard pans for decorative gift giving purposes. I then put them into colorful Christmas treat bags.

Keep them stored in the fridge.

 TOBY'S EZ HOMEMADE PUPPY TREATS

NO BAKE AND GLUTEN FREE

Only 3 Ingredients For Both Recipes


YES... Humans can eat them too.


EZ Oatmeal Balls

INGREDIENTS
1 Ripe Banana
2 tbsp of Peanut Butter
1 cup of Gluten Free Oats

Possible Add-Ons For Human Consumption Include:  
nuts, raisins, shredded coconut, chocolate chips... etc


DIRECTIONS
Mash the banana and peanut butter together til its all combined. Add 1/2 cup of Oats, mix well. If needed, add the other half. If the mixture is very wet, you may need more oats. If the mixture isn't very moist, then you'll need less. You can add water if its too dry.


Roll them up into little balls and refrigerate to harden. Makes 12-15 treats.

Baked Cookies
You can make them into baked cookies by flattening them out
and putting them on a baking sheet.

Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20min.




EZ SWEET POTATO PIE BALLS


INGREDIENTS:
2 medium Mashed Sweet Potatoes   (or 1 Large)
1/2 cup of Gluten Free Oats
1/2 tbsp Maple Syrup

Optional Ingredients For Human Consumption:
1 tbsp Ground Flax
1/4 tsp Cinnamon
1/4 tsp Pumpkin Spice
1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract
pinch of salt

Possible Add-Ons For Human Consumption Include:  
nuts, raisins, shredded coconut, chocolate chips... etc


Boil, roast or microwave your sweet potatoes til they're tender enough to mash.
Take a bowl and combine the mashed sweet potato with oats. Add in the optional ingredients you choose to put in. Mix really well till its a dough-like consistency that can be formed into a ball. If its really wet, add more oats. The amount of oats will vary on the moisture of the sweet potatoes. Taste the mixture to see if you need more sweetener. I used Maple Syrup which is safe for dogs but you can use anything you like. 

Roll them up into a small ball. Put them in the fridge to harden up. Makes 12-15 treats.



You can make some with only the 3 ingredients for the dogs and then make another batch with all the add ons for the humans for either recipe.

Lupe's Kitchen Corner: Gluten Free - The Sweet Potato Pie Waffle

 Sweet Potato Pie Waffle
This waffle tastes just like sweet potato pie. It's really amazing!  

Ingredients:
1 boiled medium Sweet Potato
1 Flax Egg    (1 tablespoon of Ground Flax + 3 tablespoons of Water) 
1/4 Cup Of Gluten Free Rolled Oats 
1/4 tsp Baking Powder 
2 tbsp of Non-Dairy Milk

​

Optional Ingredients:

A Pinch Of Salt
1/4 tsp Of Vanilla  
1/4 tsp of Pumpkin Spice
​

​This recipe is for 1 serving.



DIRECTIONS:

Make the flax egg by combining 1 tablespoon of Ground Flax with 3 tablespoons of water.
Let it sit for about 5 min. 

Boil the sweet potato til its soft and a knife will easily go thru it.

Put the sweet potato, egg, oats, baking powder, and milk into a blender.

Mix in any of the optional ingredients you would like to add.

Purée until smooth like a pancake mixture, then set aside for about 20 minutes.

Cook in a waffle iron by pouring the mixture out and covering the whole cooking area. Close the waffle iron and let it cook. I had the waffle iron set to just past half but not all the
way to high.

Be careful when you pull out the waffle, these are more delicate than regular ones. 

​This recipe makes 1 waffle.
