Comment on Chocolate Sourdough Cupcakes by Chantal.
Kathy, thank you so much for trying this recipe and sharing your photos with me on Instagram! I really appreciate your feedback and rating! If anyone else tries to bake the cake version, Kathy did mention that she baked each layout for 35 minutes. If it’s ok Kathy, I would love to show your pictures in the GFV Baking by FiR Facebook group, your cake looked so good! You did a great job!

Hi Sabina! Do you have almond meal/flour? It could work to keep the texture as light as possible. Please note that I did not try this alternative as of yet. The oat flour does help to bind the mixture. I wonder if you were to use almond meal/flour if you should also consider adding 1-2 tablespoons of flaxseed meal or ground flax seed to stick everything together.

Cindy! Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! I’m happy that you found the same dark chocolate! It’s great! It was my first time using it when creating this recipe! As for the dryness, I agree because there’s not much oil, no dairy, gluten or eggs a cupcake like this does dry much faster! I guess we’ll have to eat them faster 😉 I was debating whether or not to add more oil, but I find many prefer to avoid or reduce their oil consumption, so I left it as it was. Again, thank you for rating, commenting and sharing your pictures in the GFV Baking Facebook group—you’re awesome!

Maple Cream Bars
Hi Joanne! I don’t see why not. If you like walnuts, go for it! Pecans, hazelnuts, or sliced almonds would be equally tasty if you can consume any type of nuts. Ps. I froze some of the bars the last time I made a batch, and they are SO good to enjoy as a nice treat once in a while when the craving hits me. Especially if you can’t have traditional pecan bars/pie or butter tarts with gluten, sugar, eggs, dairy, etc., these maple bars are such a nice treat! If you do freeze some of the leftover bars, it’s best to thaw a little bit before eating or place the piece on a plate in the microwave for a few seconds.

Hi! Thank you for trying this recipe! I am not an expert at deep frying but from my experience the oil has to be hot enough or the donuts will absorb too much oil and result in greasy and soggy donuts. Ideally 350-375°F. The temperature will drop a bit once the dough is cooking. Are you cooking on a gas or electric stove? Did you use a candy thermometer to check the temperature of the oil? I mean if yours were getting too dark too fast, lower the temperature even more next time to see if it’s better.
Gluten-Free Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls
Hi! I haven’t made these in a while. I do have organic coconut milk (can) and could try a version without brown rice flour. Which GF flour is in your gluten-free starter? Tell me, when you bake grain-free, which ingredients can you consume? Do you eat buckwheat (pseudograin)? What about cassava flour, coconut flour, tiger nut flour, etc.? What about starches? Are you okay with potato starch and tapioca starch? Let me know so we can create a new version for you. What about sugar? Are you okay with coconut sugar or maple syrup?
Yeast-Free Buckwheat Blender Bread
Hi! Can I ask which brand of GF baking powder you tried? Is your batter too wet or not wet enough? And the apple? What kind did you use? Let me know so I can help you 😉
