Gluten Free Strawberry Bavarian Pie

11 May

Bavarian Strawberry Pie Recipe

A coconut crust and pretty fluffy filling make this gluten free dessert special!

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups flaked coconut

1/3 cup butter, melted

1 quart fresh strawberries, sliced

3/4 cup sugar

1 envelope unflavored gelatin

1/2 cup cold water

2 teaspoons lemon juice

1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped

Directions:

In a small bowl, combine coconut and butter.  Press onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-inch pie plate.  Bake at 300 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned (over edges loosely with foil to prevent overbrowning if necessary).  Cool on a wire rack.

In a large bowl, combine strawberries and sugar; let stand for 15 minutes.  In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over cold water; let stand for 1 minute.  Cook and stir over medium heat until gelatin is dissolved; stir in lemon juice.  Stir into strawberry mixture.  Cool to room temperature.  Fold in whipped cream.  Pour into crust.  Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing.

Yield 8-10 servings

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons orange liqueur
Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Stir in the eggs and yolks until smooth. Stir in the vanilla and orange liqueur. Divide the batter evenly among the custard cups. Place in the oven and bake for 14 minutes.

Gluten Free Crepes

11 May

In commemoration of today being the 126th anniversary of the public opening of the Eiffel tower, here is a recipe for gluten free crepes.

Ingredients
2 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1 cup Domata Recipe Ready flour
3 tablespoons melted butter
Butter, for coating the pan
Directions
In a blender, combine all of the ingredients and pulse for 10 seconds. Place the crepe batter in the refrigerator for 1 hour. This allows the bubbles to subside so the crepes will be less likely to tear during cooking. The batter will keep for up to 48 hours.

Heat a small non-stick pan. Add butter to coat. Pour 1 ounce of batter into the center of the pan and swirl to spread evenly. Cook for 30 seconds and flip. Cook for another 10 seconds and remove to the cutting board. Lay them out flat so they can cool. Continue until all batter is gone. After they have cooled you can stack them and store in sealable plastic bags in the refrigerator for several days or in the freezer for up to two months. When using frozen crepes, thaw on a rack before gently peeling apart.
