The Smiling Heart

Hi all! Well, Thanksgiving is right around the corner so I thought I would share some of my personal favorite recipes that I make every Thanksgiving. Are you a newly diagnosed Celiac? Have you been dreading Thanksgiving thinking that you won’t be able to have that wonderful dressing you love? Well, cheer up and put a smile on your face! Even if you’re an old hand at this gluten free stuff and have indulged in dressing on the holidays before you should really give this recipe a try!! It is delicious!! But, of course, you need a good solid foundation for the two dressing recipes I have for you and that would be cornbread….. so first off I’ll share a wonderful gluten free cornbread recipe:

GLUTEN FREE CORNBREAD

1 TB butter
1 cup corn meal
½ cup soy flour
½ cup brown rise flour
½ tsp salt
2 TB brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 egg
1 cup milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the butter in a  9×9 square baking pan or in a small cast iron skillet. Put the pan in the preheating oven until butter is melted. Remove from oven and tilt the pan back and forth to coat. Set aside.

Mix corn meal, soy flour, brown rice flour, salt, brown sugar and baking soda together. Add the egg, milk and melted butter. Combine with a few strokes, not over beating. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
