21 Reviews of Gluten Free Strawberry Shortcake

From: aderendal

On Jun 22, 2007

These were extremely good- I was suprised! My daughter's friend is coming over today- she has wheat alergies- so I immediately knew where to look for a recipe for her and now us! I had a bit of a scare when I added the eggs/vanilla. I think I should have added 1 at a time, beating between- but of course I dumped them in all at once. The mixture looked very frothy with some butter mixture floating around and not incorporating. Adding the cornstarch seemed to sort it all out The texture was spongy but firm. It took a few extra minutes in the oven to complete. I put half the mixture into 6 tins and added 1Tbs of coco powder to the rest for a chocolate taste. Turned out good too! Thank you so much for helping me to make our friends with different dietary needs feel welcome in our home!

    My Dad, who has Celiac, loved them. (My 4 year old daughter did too. She wanted to eat all Papa's muffins!) My Dad used them as shortcakes and as muffins. He heated them in the microwave with butter and jelly for a snack.

    Very good the kids liked it, but for some reason I thought it tasted very eggy. Fast, easy & great gluten free recipe.

    This recipe was great. I was looking for something light and fresh to make for my mom's birthday because she is on a gluten-free diet. I wanted it to be something the whole family could enjoy and let me say that this is just wonderful. I will make it regularly. I made fresh whipped cream from organic cream, sweetened with just a bit of maple syrup and used fresh raspberries instead. I also had a bit of homemade granola that I sprinkled around to give it a bit of crunch. The variations on this could be endless. I'm so happy to have found this. Thanks for posting!

    Yummy! Friends could not tell it was gluten-free. I was out of vanilla so I substituted lemon extract which gave it a nice lemony taste.

    This is such a fantastic recipe! It's amazing that it has so few ingredients and is so simple and quick to prepare. When plain, the muffins taste a little more eggy than most cake, but if that bothers the cook, the egginess is drowned by anything you put on the muffins. They're a fabulous blank slate for all sorts of toppings.

    Awesome recipe, they are so fresh and spongy, they have a very eggy flavour but when i made them into butterfly cakes with washed mock cream and raspberry jam i couldn't taste them. The non gluten eaters did not know they were GF. Thanks for posting a fabulous easy recipe.
