Recipe Description
File:Gluten-free_muffins.jpg|right|350px|Quick and easy muffinsQuite awhile ago, someone was looking for gluten-free recipes. Since i have developed severe allergies to grains, it was suggested to me by somneone here on the echo that it could be the gluten content that was giving me trouble. So i decided to try the gluten-free grains. The gluten-free grains do not interchange readily in baking recipes. A few days ago, i happened upon the gluten-free gourmet living well without wheat by Bette Hagman at the half price book store. This book is a real gem and i hope whoever was looking for gluten-free recipes sees this MSG. We have tried a couple of the recipes and they really are pretty tasty--- i hadn't eaten a bakery item in over 3 months! here is the muffin recipe that i made on Easter morning and everyone thought they were good.
