Forgot to add...Betty Crocker gluten free brownies are better than regular ones in my opinion.

p.s. it is less expensive to blend your own mixture than it is to buy the prepackaged mixes, too!

I/we have a soy intolerance as well and most flours say they are processed in a facility with soy so I can't use them. I grind my own rice flour and use 3 parts rice flour to 1 part corn starch and it usually turns out good.

Bannan Muffins

Dry ingredients
1.5 cups rice flour
0.5 cup corn starch
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1.5 tsp cinnamon
0.5 tsp nutmeg

Wet ingredients
2 cups mashed bananas
2/3 cup olive oil

Wisk dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix wet ingredients in a small bowl. Beat the wet ingredients really good until nice and creamy. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Mix just enough to incorporate. DON'T over mix. Stir in nuts and/or chocolate chips.

Bake @ 350 for 20 minutes.

(These are gluten, dairy, soy, and egg free)

NOTE: edited this to include the sugar. Must not forget the sugar.

I second the recommendation for Pamela's. We made drop biscuits from their biscuit mix and my picky teenage daughter who is NOT gluten free gobbled them right up.

ok not sure why link did not work sorry here is the recipe -Gluten Free Shirley Temple Cupcakes Recipe

Ingredients

Cupcakes
1½ cups plus 1 tablespoon all purpose gluten free flour blend – use divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon kosher or fine sea salt
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
½ cup 7-Up, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon maraschino cherry juice
Several drops of gluten-free red food coloring gel

Frosting
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 large pinch of Kosher or fine sea salt
2½ cups confectioners’ sugar
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon maraschino cherry juice
12 maraschino cherries, patted dry with paper toweling

Directions

Cupcakes
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 12 standard muffin cups with paper or silicon cupcake liners.

In a large mixing bowl whisk together 1½ cups of the gluten-free flour blend, baking powder and salt.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, preferably fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium high speed for two minutes or until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well and scraping down the bowl after each addition. Turn the mixer to low and add half of the flour mixture, then the 7-Up and finally the rest of the flour mixture. Add the vanilla extract and mix. Scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing bowl well to ensure all the ingredients are fully incorporated. Do not be concerned if the batter looks a little curdled.

Take a ½ cup of the batter and put in a small bowl. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of flour, the maraschino cherry juice and enough red food coloring to turn the batter red. Stir well. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans (about 1 big teaspoon per cup). Gently spoon the remaining batter on top of the red batter trying not to mix the two colors but to keep in layers.

Bake for 15 – 20 minutes or until the tops of the cupcakes are slightly springy and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes then remove to a wire rack to finish cooling. (The cupcakes will puff up a bit while cooking because of the 7-Up.)

While the cupcakes are cooling, prepared the frosting.

Frosting
In a mixing bowl of an electric mixer, preferably fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and salt on high speed until creamy. Sift in the confectioners’ sugar and mix on low until fully combined. Add the vanilla, lemon juice and maraschino cherry juice. Mix to combine.

Pipe on or frost the cupcakes with the frosting and top each cupcake with a maraschino cherry.

Servings

I have had great success with a gluten free version of the cake recipe on the back of Hershey's cocoa.
