I just tried these breads and rolls and they are outstanding.  It so nice to have bread real bread that is just as soft of a bread that I used to have before I was diagnosed with having Celiac Disease.  These breads are more then just great tasting they also have great nutritional value to them.  Two slices of the bread have 5 grams of fiber to them .It has 150 calories  for the two slices of bread.
This bread is so good, it is soft and has a great taste to it.  You do not have to toast it to make it soft it already is
It makes fantastic sandwiches you will never know that there is no gluten in it.  You just get the benefits of having a great tasting sandwich and has fantastic nutritional value to it
The Hamburger Rolls  and Hot Dog rolls are also outstanding.
Right now the only way to get this bread is online but soon it may be in a store near you.
You will not be sorry with choosing this gluten free  bread it truly is a winner.
My favorite sandwich this bread is cashew butter and bananas it is so good.
The website is www.kinnikinnik.com   Please take a look at their website and see for your self how great these breads are They have a Multi Grain Bread and a White Bread that is soft and wonderful.
I can not wait to get some more in to the cupboards.
The breads are free of gluten free of wheat free of Dairy and Free of Peanut but they taste magnificent.  Their telephone number is 1877 503 4466
You have got to try out these breads and rolls for yourself.  .

Thank You

LOVE NATURALS 100% natural skin care is a post from: Celiac Information celiac-association.ca

Pastry Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup warm water (110 F)
• 1 Tbs. granulated cane sugar
• 2 1/4 tsp. (1 packet) highly active, fast rise yeast (e.g. Red Star® Quick Rise Instant Gluten-Free Yeast)
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter or non-dairy alternative (e.g. Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks)
• 3 Tbs. granulated cane sugar
• 1/4 cup warm milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 2 large eggs (room temperature)
• 3 cups Jules Gluten Free™ All-Purpose Flour
• 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
• 2 tsp. gluten-free baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. salt (1/4 tsp. salt if using non-dairy alternative)
• 2 Tbs. milk (dairy or non-dairy) for brushing on pastry before baking

Filling Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour
• 1 apple, peeled and chopped (optional)
• 2/3 cup chopped pecans (optional)
• 4 Tbs. butter or non-dairy alternative (e.g. Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks)

Icing Ingredients:

• 1 cup confectioner’s sugar
• 1-2 Tbs. milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 1/4 tsp. pure almond extract (optional)
• colored sugar (purple, gold and green)

Prepare the filling by tossing the chopped apples together with the Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, melt the 4 tablespoons butter, and set both bowls aside.

In a small bowl, combine the warm water, 1 tablespoon sugar and yeast; stir and set aside to proof. If the mixture is not bubbly and doubled in volume after 5-10 minutes, toss out and start again with fresh yeast.

In a large mixing bowl, blend the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar and butter until light and fluffy.  Add the milk and eggs and beat until well-integrated. Add only 2 cups of Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour, salt, baking powder and nutmeg and mix well. Stir in the proofed yeast-sugar-water mixture, then add the remaining 1 cup Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour. Beat another 1-2 minutes, until the dough is clumping together and is not too sticky.

Prepare a large baking sheet by lining with parchment paper. Turn the dough out onto a silicone pastry mat or onto a clean counter dusted lightly with Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour (be sure to have enough counter space, at least 30 inches wide). Roll the dough out to an elongated rectangle 24-30 inches long by 9-10 inches wide. Brush on the melted butter, coating the entire rectangle. Sprinkle the filling mixture on top of the melted butter, spreading to the ends of the rectangle, but leaving 1/2-1 inch without toppings on each of the long sides of the rectangle.

Using a bench scraper or a spatula, gently peel up one of the long sides of the rectangle and begin rolling it as you would a jelly roll. Once the entire pastry is rolled upon itself until no pastry remains unrolled, a 24-30 inch long roll will remain. Gently pull the two ends of the roll together to form a circle or oval. Dabbing the ends of the pastry with water, join the ends together to close the circle. Gently transfer the ring to the parchment-lined baking sheet, or transfer the ring on the silicone baking mat to the baking sheet.

Brush the milk on top of the exposed pastry, then using a large sharp knife, make a cut in the top of the pastry every 2 inches to expose one layer of the roll. Spray a sheet of wax paper with cooking oil, then cover the cake and let rise in a warm spot for 20-30 minutes like a warming drawer or an oven heated to 200º F then turned off.

Preheat oven to 350º F (static) or 325º F (convection).

Remove the wax paper from the cake and bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool. While cooling, mix icing ingredients and drizzle over the cake. Sprinkle colored sugar on top of wet icing, alternating colors between each cut in the top of the cake. Once cooled, insert a pecan or toy baby into the underside of the cake to hide it. Serve when fully cooled.

Best Brownies Ever

• 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate (nondairy = two 100 percent cacao baking squares)
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (dairy or nondairy, e.g. Enjoy Life®)
• 8 Tbs. butter or nondairy alternative (Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks)
• 1 cup granulated cane sugar
• 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs or egg substitute of choice (see Free for All Cooking for suggested substitutions)
• 1/4 cup black coffee, prepared
• 2/3 cup Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder, gluten-free
• 3/4 cup Dark Morello or Dark Sweet Cherries, pitted and drained

(For video directions on how-to make this recipe, watch my Fox 5 news segment)

Preheat oven to 325ºF (static).

Arrange a sheet of parchment paper or aluminum foil in an 8 x 8-inch baking pan, pressing to cover the bottom and up the sides. If using aluminum foil, use the “release” kind, or lightly spray with cooking oil. This step will make it easier to remove the brownies from the pan by pulling up on the paper or foil and leaving behind a clean pan.

Prepare a double boiler or a medium-size pan filled with 1 inch of water, with a slightly smaller pan sitting on top of the pan with water. Boil the water in the bottom pan, then cut the flame back to low-medium and add the chocolates and butter to the top pan over the simmering water. Stir and remove from heat when melted.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar and vanilla, then stir in the eggs, one at a time. Finally, add in the coffee and continue to whisk until mixture is completely smooth. Add to the melted chocolate mixture.

In a large bowl, whisk to combine the flour, salt, and baking powder.  Stir into the melted chocolate-sugar pot until combined. Gently fold in the cherries, if using.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35–45 minutes, or until a toothpick or cake tester inserted in center comes out with only a few wet crumbs (not totally clean, or they’ll be overcooked!).

As a rule, brownies are much better on the un-done side, as opposed to the overdone side.

Cool brownies in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Lift the brownies from the pan by pulling up on the paper or foil. Completely cool brownies on a wire rack. Cut into squares with a clean knife and serve.

Yield: approximately 16–20 brownies

SWEETNESS BAKING GLUTEN FREE BAKERY IN BLUE BELL PA is a post from: Celiac Information celiac-association.ca

]]> 02/06/2012

There is a new Bakery in Blue Bell that is outrageously good
She will make almost anything that you would like
I asked her if she could make for me a gluten Free Pumpkin Bread and it was fantastic.  It was free of all allergens and it was moist and tasted like a real pumpkin Bread  You would never know that this Pumpkin Bread was gluten free
When I purchased it it was 15.00 but it was not a small amount of Pumpkin Bread it  was quite a large size of a pumpkin Bread.  I would say that it probably was the size of a 13X 9 size rectangular pan
I thought for a gluten free bread for that size it was a good buy and it was great.  I thought this would be great to have for holidays and special occasions or just when you need that special treat for your self
You can take a look at all the things she has available at her website www.sweetnessbaking.com
I do not think you will dissatisfied at all on the contrary her products are just magnificent
She has many of her products at Buonissimos shop at 701 Dekalb Pike in Blue Bell and she will have many more coming in

Thank you
