Comment on Carrot Spice Donuts by Chantal.
Hi Rhonda! Thank you so much for your kind message! I appreciate it! As for the donuts, the recipe calls for 1-1/2 cups of oat flour. There’s also buckwheat flour so ideally, you want to replace the oat flour with something comparable. Are you allergic to almonds? You could try subbing the oat flour for almond meal/flour. If you don’t eat nuts, try a combo of a couple of other GF flours. I think that one cup of sorghum with maybe 1/2 cup of a seed flour (sunflower or pumpkin) could work as an alternative to oat flour. Do you want me to try it for you first? Now I’m hungry for donuts! Let me know which flours you have on hand if these suggestions don’t work for you. Please keep in mind that I haven’t tried these exact substitutes. The final texture of the donuts could vary. This donut recipe has a muffin-like texture.

In a pinch, finely grated butternut squash is equally amazing to use in this Carrot Spice Donut recipe!

Homemade Maple Cream with Stand Mixer
Hi Cara! Ideally cool to 90 degrees. It might take longer to stir and transform into cream if the syrup is still too hot. You’re probably getting my reply too late… what did you end up doing? Or did it work for you to stir at the slightly higher temperature.
Yeast-Free Buckwheat Blender Bread
Hi June! I think I might of answered your question on a different platform but I’ll answer here again in case it can help someone else. You can definitely mix in the roughly mashed banana with some add-ins like nuts after the blending step. It creates a more textured bread instead of a smoother texture but it is equally delicious.
Nutritious Gluten-Free Vegan Zucchini Quick Bread (Oil-Free)
Hi Ann! Did you use a preheated Dutch oven to bake the bread? With this recipe, ensuring your oven is preheated as well as a large Dutch oven really helps with the moisture.The smaller grated zucchini is fine. Did you use whole psyllium husk? Was your yogurt very thin?
Yeast-Free Buckwheat Blender Bread
Hi Megan! This is a reply that I shared with another baker with the same question.
I did test the recipe with buckwheat flour, but the results weren’t as great but comparable. I’ve been looking for my notes as I tested this variation before the holidays. The idea would be to use 175g of light buckwheat flour to replace the 175g of buckwheat groats with enough water to moisten the mixture. You’ll need at least one cup of water, possibly a bit more. I would still use a blender to help blend/purée all the ingredients into a smooth batter-like dough. If you try it before I find my notes or try it again, please share your results with us.
7-Inch Sourdough Boule (GF/V)
Hi Lisa! With the cassava flour sourdough starter did you change any other ingredients in the bread recipe? It’s possible that using a grain-free starter such as cassava starter could have contribute to a dough texture with more moisture. Did you try again after this attempt? I realize you posted your comment a few months ago but I’m just seeing it now.
