Absolutely NOT! These recipes are built with the intention of getting you familiar with high-quality flours that exist and learning to use them to perfection in your cooking. They just happen to be gluten-free.
How can we choose?! But really…from our experience, we find that the gluten-free crepes and pizza are a huge hit. In addition, people find the pretzels incredibly rewarding – especially with the secret tips that we include!
These recipes are versatile and can be used for almost any diet. We give the basics on how to make these tortillas, breads, etc. and you can add whatever sauce you’d like. The banana bread, cookies and sweeter items are dairy-free. Some include honey, which can be substituted with maple syrup or agave.
