Baking Powder Recipe

**found in Karina's Gluten-Free Goddess Blog


Recipe 1:

1/4 cup bicarbonate soda (baking soda)
1/2 cup cream of tarter

Recipe 2:

1/3 cup baking soda
2/3 cup cream of tarter
2/3 cup arrowroot or potato starch
Mix well.  Store in an air tight container.
1-1 1/2 tsp of this mixture = 1 tsp. of regular baking powder

You an also buy pre-made baking powder such as Bob's Red Mill, Hain's (corn free and gf), BarKat, Davis, Bakewell or Rumford (which is what I always use-and so easy to find in the markets).

Now you can use the above to create your own baking soda or you can just use baking powder you have found in the market.  It depends on what you trust. And the tricky part is, is that some baking powders are not gluten-free.  You must read the ingredients.  What most people don't know is that baking powder consists of an Moisture Absorption Agent that is usually made with corn, but not always.  Many times it can be wheat based.  Plan ahead, and don't just buy what you see on the shelf.

Baking Powder is a leavening agent that helps your baked goods rise.  Product freshness is extremely important.  If the Baking Powder is expired it will not provide the same "rise" to your baked goods.  Always check the expiration date!

Always remember that ingredients can change.  So even if you are used to buying a specific product, check the ingredients anyway.

Happy baking! xoxo Julie

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

Hot Chocolate Coffee

Sometimes I feel like there are days only chocolate would understand.  And following a strict Paleo diet does not allot for chocolate eating.  Especially chocolate with added dried cane sugar.  And especially in abundance.  Of course special occasions allot for this type of activity, but today is not that day. So how do you put a sock in your chocolate craving?  Well, simply remove your sock from your foot and put it in your chocolate.  I'm kidding!  Please use a clean sock! Kidding again!!… Often, chocolate cravings can get the best of us, so I created a delicious recipe to kick my craving and your craving.  It's delicious.  And it's perfect for the lover of coffee and chocolate.  Taking a sip of this sent signals of pure decadence to my brain.

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com
