Gluten Free Me

Welcome back to the blog! This week’s blog is a fun and simple baking idea to keep you occupied at home 🙂

First up: Homemade granola

Recipe:
2 cups gluten free oats

1/4 cup butter or coconut oil

1/4 cup honey

1/2 tsp vanilla extract *

2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 c dried fruit/topping of your choice

Optional: 3 tbs brown sugar

Melt together butter and honey; Mix together oats, vanilla and cinnamon. Combine and add toppings. Sprinkle brown sugar on top and bake at 300 for 30 min, stirring halfway.

*make sure vanilla is gluten free

This can be eaten by itself (because it’s delicious!), with a smoothie bowl or with yogurt. If you want to make this with a smoothie bowl, just use your favorite smoothie recipe but reduce the liquid in the smoothie to make it thicker.

Next up: Tacos!

Definitely not a baked good, but such a fun food to make in quarantine! Most hard shells (made from corn) are gluten free, as well as soft tortillas make from rice flours, etc. What I love about tacos is that you can put almost anything it them! Chicken tacos are my favorite.

Stay safe everyone! See you next week.
