These were really fun to experiment with! If you know me, Alia, you know that I have a hard time when it comes to baking... I don't measure correctly at all. When I cook, I do it the Italian way.. a little bit here and lot of spices there.. there isn't an exact amount. 

Baking on the other hand there is EXACT amounts... And you have to measure the flour correctly with a knife. "No packing it down" (my mom says )



Come to find out though that baking with Gluten Free flour is amazingly easy! There isn't much flour in this recipe at all. When I first put in the flour the consistency of the wet materials and the dry was still pretty much liquefy. But the directions are correct... let it stand for a couple of minutes and it will thicken up. 

They were amazing! My neighbors son who is gluten intolerant loved them!
