Etsy site! And other things.

Hey internetters, no recipe today but I wanted to say that I've opened an Etsy store! http://www.etsy.com/people/TessaLeBear I've made three sales already. Stuff isn't expensive at all. I have a donate box on the side of my blog because shipping and material  costs are a bit pricey and I want to keep my prices reasonable. That's all. Bai!

Flat bread! :)

I really like this recipe! It's like a sweet flat bread. My non-GF boyfriend, liked it a lot too. I went to subway yesterday and got a salad (that they so kindly contaminated after I told them, sorry. /rage) and now I wanted something like what they make. It's really easy, and doesn't take long. I made pretty sandwiches with them, lol.
What you all need:
1 cup brow rice flour
1/2 cup corn starch
2 tbs sugar
2 tsp xanthan gum
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup water
1 tbs cider vinegar
3 tbs canola oil
2 eggs

Yay! Stuff!

Add all of the dry stuff together and mix well, then the wet stuff and you have your doughbatterstuffthings.

Next scoop the batter into greased and flour dusted bread pans and smooth it out using the back of a wet spoon. Cook at 350(F) for about 30 minutes or until done.

I made my boyguymanthing and I some nomy stuff.

OMG BREAD!

Yes, this bread calls for an acronym. It's bread, I'm-not-joking-around-here-with-how-awesome-this-bread-is-bread. It tastes SO MUCH like wheat white bread. I just bout King Authors Gluten Free AP Flour. I wanted to try it out. Why not make some bread? THIS BREAD IN ITS NOMMYNESS!

LOOK AT DEM AIR HOLES! LOOK! Sorry, I'm so happy. SO HAPPY. I had to eat a slice right out of the oven. I'm just, I don't even know. I love this bread. Anyway, so about the AP flour mix, if it's too pricey near you or you can't get it or something here's how to make it, well what goes in it.
Whisk together 6 cups of brown rice flour; 2 cups potato starch; and 1 cup tapioca flour or tapioca starch. 
Okay on to the recipe...


3 cups GF AP Flour
3 tbs sugar
1 packet dry active yeast (usually 2 teaspoons)
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 teaspoon Xanthan gum
1 cup warm milk
4 tbs butter
3 eggs

The look of the flour made me so happy.

Okay add together the flour, xanthan gum, yeast, sugar, and salt; mix well. You see the bowl in the above picture? I quickly learned that you need one much deeper if using a hand mixer. Anyway after you add the dry ingredients together mix the warm milk in little by little.

Lol, you can see my mess I made. -_-

After the milk is all added in, add in the butter and mix. After that add in the eggs one by one. Only add the next one after the last one is mixed well. I did everything after the milk with hand mixing tools because it didn't seem like the hand mixer could cut handle the thick batter and I didn't want it to break. If you to this, make sure to get LOTS of air into the dough, yes, air. 

After that's all done, put something over the dough to let rise. Let it rise for one hour in the bowl and one hour in the bread pan. 

 After it's sitting in the bowl for an hour before you put it in the bread pan, stir it down.

Make sure the pan is nice and greasy.. 

After it's sat in the bread pan for an hour, cook in a cooking machine for 37-40 minutes and make it as hot at 350 degrees (F). 

I put some melted butter on the outside.

MAKE THIS AND NOM THE AWESOME THAT IS BREAD RIGHT NOW. NOW!

Doughnuts. It's easy and takes only about an hour and a half. The end results are AWWWHHHSOME.

Okay first I'd like to thank my boyfriend and his father for helping me with this. My boyfriend took pictures and his dad helped me cook the dough in grease, you're both super awesome. Anyway, I tried to make soft pretzels yesterday and needless to say they tasted naaaaaaaaaasty. So today I made doughnuts. They tasted like happiness. Oh, right you came here for instructions, riiiiiight.


Go to where you keep stuff and get this:
Okay first I used a jarred blend of flour. It was:
2 cups brown rice flour
2/3 cup potato starch
1/2 cup tapioca starch (or flour it's the same thing don't be fooled!)
You will use  2 cups of this.
Shake it up and set aside. You also need:
1 Tbs. butter (melted)
2 cups buckwheat (I used light buckwheat but any should be fine)
1 egg
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp nutmeg
2 tbs xanthan
Oil to fry, I mixed canola and vegetable oil.

LOOK I put something in a jar! I'm uber-trendy. 

As trendy as an 80 year old....

Now, do as I say....

Melt the butter then mix the milk and egg in to it.

DO NOT EAT.

Now that it's mixed add the sugar, baking powder, xanthan gum, and nutmeg.

Blend until it looks like the picture below, then add 2 cups of the rice flour blend:

Okay here is where the buckwheat comes in, it won't be a good enough texture so add the buckwheat flour little by little until it's a good enough texture to pick up and hold together in a ball. You most likely won't use two cups of the buckwheat flour but just in case have that much.

It should be the texture of a meat puppet.

I kid, I make bad joke.

hehehe.

IT DOESN'T BOUNCE, DON'T GET YOUR HOPES UP

NOT REAL BALL. JUST DOUGH.

Stick the ball of dough in the fridge for about 20 minutes covered in a damp paper towel or cloth.

That.

Meanwhile heat your oil, make it at least 230 degrees (F). The dough should sizzle and float when it makes contact. Flour a surface with cornstarch or something to roll out. Roll the dough out, and cut with something circular shaped, I used a cup.

I used a shot glass, because I'm hardcore. And you know, you're not hardcore unless you live hardcore.

Okay time for the oil. Pictured are when they're ready to be flipped and when they'e done. Keep them in the oil for about 30 seconds per side. If you feel they're done sooner (everyone is different), take them out.

Then just powder or whatever you want to do and go OMNOMNOM. Let them cool, unless you want the sugar and stuff to melt on to it.
