pear rosemary bread





The best bit about being gluten-free (apart from feeling great) is I get to play with ancient grains.

This bread is made with brown rice, amaranth, and quinoa flour. 
There's baking powder, salt, pear, rosemary and walnuts. 
Olive oil and eggs.
And for sweetness...agave nectar.

Believe it or not, it really is yummy. 


Go Gluten-Free!!

Very nice. There are so many wonderful grains to play with. I'm glad to see you having a fun go of it.

Yum! Pretty, too. Recently hearing much about the value of going gluten free for everyone, not just those who are allergic---because of genetically modified grains and other health hazards that affect all of us in varying degrees---thinking of trying it myself---but not sure I need to take on yet another time consuming effort!

Way to go Niki! I ate 4 pieces (FOUR!!) of my homemade shortbread this morning and I now have a really tight, sore tummy and feel incredibly tired. Although nothing has ever been diagnosed, I can only put it down to the flour. I need to remind myself it isn't worth it 0 but greed tends to win out... :(
