Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread

Recipe is on the back of Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread Mix

Dissolve enclosed Yeast packet in
1-1/12 cups warm water (110*)
I always add a teaspoon of Sugar so I know the yeast is active
Mix with a Fork and let sit for 5 Minutes to Foam

Place the entire package of the Mix into a Stand up mixer with a Paddle.

Add:
¼ Cup Oil
2 Eggs, room temperature. You can get them to room temperature quickly by placing them in a bowl with warm water. Takes about 5 minutes.

With the Mixer on low speed,, blend all the ingredients until smooth. Scrape the Bowl. Turn mixer to medium and beat for 15 seconds or until mixture thickens to a cake batter consistency. Scrape the bowl.
Beat another 10 seconds.

Pour the batter into a greased 9X5 nonstick pan. Smooth the top of the bread with a wet spatula.
Cover the bread with Plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking spray and place in a warm place to rise. Rise for 45-60 minutes or until the dough is level with the top of the pan.

Bake in a preheated 375* oven for 60-65 minutes. I use a digital thermometer,, inserted into the center of the bread when it reaches 205* the bread is done.
I covered the bread the last 15-20 minutes of baking with foil.

Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 Minutes.
Remove and completely cool on the wire rack before you slice the bread.
For a Soft Crust I brush with melted butter and Cover loosely with a tea towel.

I use a Meat Slicer to make even slices of bread or use a bread knife. This bread freezes beautifully.


ENJOY!!

(***FOOTNOTE***)

You can use the recipe below for Homemade Gluten Free flour mix
or buy a Pre-made Gluten Free Flour Mix
If your using a Pre-made Gluten Free Flour Mix check to see if it has Xanthan Gum,
if it does then you do not need to add Xanathan Gum to the Recipe.


Gluten Free Homemade Flour Mix for:
cookies, muffins, bars, brownies cakes, quick & yeast breads, rolls, buns and biscuits
I got this recipe at the Gluten Free Expo.


2 1/4 Cups Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Brown Rice Flour
1/4 Cup Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Potato Starch
2/3 Cup Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Tapioca Starch
3/4 Cup Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Sweet Rice Flour
1/3 Cup Cornstarch

Measure all the ingredients into a container. I used a spoon to lightly mix it together then put the cover on and shake well.
(Making sure its a tight fitting cover)

The original recipe called to add 2 tsp. Xanthan Gum
I did not do that, I like to add mine to each recipe individually.

I've checked the internet and I have seen that many people use this mix so I don't know who was the original person who made the recipe.

Lemon Chicken Drumsticks with Sweet Potatoes



Lemon Chicken Drumsticks with Sweet Potatoes

Looking for an easy quick dinner to make thats naturally Gluten Free? Try out my Lemon Chicken Drum Sticks with Sweet Potatoes.
The Chicken is very moist and super tasty.

For more recipes and tidbits please join me on my
Facebook Gluten Free Page:
https://www.facebook.com/SharingGlutenFreeRecipes


This recipe is enough for 2-3 people


6 Drum Sticks or Thighs: Wash, remove any excess skin and dry with a paper towel

In a Ziplock bag add and give it a good mix:
4 Tbl. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 Tbl. Balsamic Vinegar
Spices to taste:
Salt and Pepper
Fresh Minced Garlic
Onion Powder
Tuscan Spicy Garlic (A spice blend of Garlic, Sea Salt and Chili) or any other spice of your choice
Juice of One Lemon
Remove the Seeds from the Lemon and cut into 8 wedges and add to the bag
After the blend has been mixed add the Chicken Drum Sticks give it a good mix so that all the chicken has been coated.
Marinate in the Refrigerator for 2 Hours. After an hour turn the bag over.

Preheat the Oven to 450*

Spray a glass 9X13 pan with Cooking Spray
Pour the entire Ziplock bag contents into the glass pan including the lemon wedges

Peel and cut into chunks 1-2 Sweet Potatoes
Peel and cut into chunks 3-5 Carrots
1 medium Onion cut into small wedges
(You can use White or Red Potatoes in place of the Sweet Potatoes. You could use Parsnips in place of the Carrots,, this is a recipe you can have fun using different vegetables)

Place the vegetables all around the Chicken and Lemon mixture. Use your hands to help coat all the vegetables in the mixture. You many need to drizzle just a little bit more Extra Virgin Olive Oil across the Vegetables. Sprinkle with Fresh or Dried Parsley. Sprinkle on a little more Salt and Pepper.

Bake for 1 Hour or until the Chicken reaches 165* and the Vegetables are tender.

I like to serve Frozen Green Peas with this dinner.

ENJOY!!
