What are you making for Easter dessert?
Comments (42)Lou, yes I remember the bread basket with egg. It was the sweet bread dough. I see on the other thread you made it and it looks great. Did you ever make the noodle pudding with Anisette/anise flavoring? Thanks Terri, I think I'm the lucky one with her putting up with me for all these years. lol. Your helpers have such concentration putting the jelly beans on those cupcakes and love the pic of your helper chowing on the peep bunny. Cathy, $4 a flat......... swoon. I must say that Plant City has enabled me to have my banana strawberry smoothies year round these days and I love it. Our Acme will have sales of the quarts 2 for $5 and that's pretty good, but then they also come on sale $4 buy one get one free. That's when I stock up for my smoothies. Between you and David, now I want some strawberry shortcake though. On biscuits with unsweetened whipped cream....See MoreEaster Sunday Dessert
Comments (9)And I meant to say, I found a gluten free Irish Soda bread recipe. Can't vouch for it, but just in case: Karina's Gluten-Free Irish Soda Bread This soda bread sports a mildly sweet and complex flavor. The potato starch gives it tenderness, moisture and lift. If you don't like the taste of caraway, try a touch of finely grated orange peel. Make sure your source of millet flour is truly gluten-free. Ingredients: 1 cup gluten-free millet flour or certified GF oat flour 1/2 cup sorghum flour 1/2 cup potato starch (not potato flour!) 2 tablespoons raw sugar 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon sea salt 2 teaspoons xanthan gum 5 tablespoons Earth Balance stick, or Spectrum Naturals Organic Shortening 3/4 cup plain non-dairy milk with 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, or mild rice vinegar added 2 free range organic eggs or Ener-G Foods Egg Replacer 1 tablespoon honey or raw agave nectar 1 to 3 teaspoons caraway seeds, to taste (or use grated orange peel) 1 cup currants or raisins Instructions: Preheat oven to 375ºF. Lightly grease an 8-9 inch round cake pan and dust it with gluten-free flour. Whisk the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Cut in the shortening with a whisk, fork or pastry cutter. Whisk the wet ingredients together in a separate bowl. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the non-dairy milk, beaten eggs and honey, gently mixing as you go. I use a soft silicone or rubber spatula to do this. If you need a little more non-dairy milk to moisten the dough, add a tablespoon at a time and stir in. When the dough is evenly moist- like sticky biscuit batter, add the caraway and raisins. Stir only briefly to mix them in. Scrape and spoon out the dough into the prepared cake pan; and use wet hands to flatten and smooth the dough into a round loaf. Using a sharp knife, slice a criss-cross into the dough and wiggle it a bit from side to side to make a wider dent. [According to Irish folklore, the criss-cross discourages the mischievous fairies from messing with your humble loaf of bread. In case you were wondering.] Place the pan into the center of a preheated oven. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the loaf is golden and crusty and sounds hollow when thumped. Insert a wooden toothpick into the center to test for doneness. Cool on a wire rack for five minutes; and turn the loaf out of the pan to cool to room temperature on the rack. This sweet and tender bread is fabulous warm from the oven, even if it tends to crumble a bit. It gets a bit sturdier as it cools. gluten free Irish Soda bread Recipe Source: glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.com Posted by Karina Allrich...See MoreMy Easter dessert. Bragging.

Comments (10)FYI, I measured out 3 cups finely ground vanilla wafers. That will help save on the math :o) Plus I made 1 1/2 custard recipe so I could have some for the top. Had to use toothpicks though to keep it from sliding. It is a keeper recipe for me as my family loves real banana pudding and this cake tops it. Made the cakes on Friday, Saturday the custard and assembled Sunday morning....See MoreEasy dessert if you need one.
Comments (5)These are so good. I used to make them frequently for my family. Haven't made in a long time now. Think I need to make these again. Thanks for the reminder....See MoreUser
