31 Gluten Free Cakes and Pies: Light, moist, delectable cakes and pies for a gluten-free, healthy lifestyle (Gluten Free Desserts Book 1)

There are two kinds of cake people and pie people. OK, and people who like both cake and pie! The following 31 recipes are sure to satisfy every "sweet slice" craving. When it comes to gluten-free cakes, the biggest challenge lies in retaining their texture, because gluten lends "stickiness" to the batter and because white flour, which is typically used to make cakes, has been processed and stripped of all fiber and nutrition, making it light and airy. However, this is not a challenge to back down from! Even gluten-free angel food cake is perfectly doable. There's a little more "wiggle room" with denser cakes, like carrot cake and pound cake. In these recipes, feel free to experiment with different flours and fillings, such as using heart-healthy avocado in place of artery-clogging butter in pound cakes. If you find that your cake is too dry, here are a few things you can add more liquids/fats, make sure that your baking dish is filled only halfway with batter, and check the accuracy of your oven temperature, because a hotter oven will likely produce a drier cake. As for pies, I've included recipes for standards like banana cream and sweet potato as well as more exotic choices. If you find that your cake is too dry, here are a few things you can add more liquids/fats, make sure that your baking dish is only filled halfway with batter, and check the accuracy of your oven temperature, because a hotter oven will likely produce a drier cake. If you're looking to make the perfect flaky pie crust, I recommend using a pre-mixed gluten-free flour blend that includes a couple of different flours and at least one type of starch.
