Gluten Free Crepes

1c rice flour
1 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 c milk


Combine sifted flour, sugar, and salt. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add enough milk to make a thin batter, usually the whole cup. Beat until smooth. Pour some batter into a lightly greased skillet and flip once top begins to bubble. Fill with fruit, whipped cream, syrup, chocolate syrup, cinnamon/sugar...whatever your little heart desires. My daughter loves to make peanut butter crepes...just plain ol peanut butter and wrap it up. YUM.

Amazing Chocolate Fudge Icing

You may ask why I'm posting a gluten free icing recipe...as most icings are already gluten free.
This recipe is AMAZING because you ice the cake while it's still hot. So, I know alot of gluten free cakes miss the moist fluffiness of a glutinous cake...voila...use this icing and your cake is nice and moist.


1 stick of butter
1/2 c. cocoa
1/3 c. milk
1 lb icing sugar
1 tbsp vanilla

Melt butter and cocoa, boil 1 minute. Add remaining ingredients and beat until smooth. Spread while warm.

Pop Up Rice Muffins

In a bowl, beat together to blend 1 1/2 tsps butter, 1 large egg, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup rice flour, and 1/2 tsp salt. At once, fill 8 well buttered muffin cups equally with batter. Bake in a 375deg oven until popovers are well browned, about 35 minutes. Run a knife between pan and popovers and ease out of pan. Serve HOT.

The best thing about this recipe is it's versatility. They remind me of Yorkshire Puddings. So I often use these in place of yorkshire puddings during nice roast dinners. BUT because I like them so much, I've also used them for breakfast and put syrup or jam on them. Or cheese.
Really, whatever your imagination can come up with, these muffins are amazing.
