To Join in on Gluten Free-zer Friday:
1. If you would like to participate in Gluten Free-zer Friday, simply email your post link to your gluten free freezer recipe (angelas_kitchenATcomcastDOTnet) or leave a comment below and I will add you to the roundup.
2. Link back to this post on the post with the recipe you have linked.
This week I thought I would get back to those adaptions for Once a Month Mom. So, here they are! In two weeks I will be posting the dinners. I will not be putting the instructions and grocery lists up as they were too much of a time thing for me which in the long run prevented me from getting posts up (bummer), but I figure the recipes are the important part.
Head over to Once a Month Mom for the big day instructions (just be sure to use your good judgement on what applies to your gluten and dairy free selves). For the grocery lists, cut and paste to Word or your favorite application the ingredients for each recipe. Sort out by type of food or area of the store as you choose, or just leave as is. Happy cooking!

Angela’s Note: I would make one batch filled or with a mix-in, then another batch plain or with cinnamon sugar topping. I made some (with the same amount of batter per muffin) in a canoe pan which the kids thought were fun and very easy to dip.
GFCF Pancake Muffins (mix a single batch at a time)
Author/Source: Angela from angelaskitchen.com
Makes about 17 of plain or filled muffins. If adding mix-ins, expect more depending on type of mix-in added.
2 1/4 cups gluten free bean based flour blend (or 1/2 cup garfava flour, 1/4 c sourgum flour, 3/4 cup corn or potato starch, and 3/4 cup tapioca starch)
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups GFCF milk substitute (ie: almond, rice, etc.)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Oil the cups of a muffin tin well. Set aside.

Stir until well blended together (use the whisk attachment of my mixer or an immersion blender). There may still be some small lumps, but try not to have too many. Set 3/4 cup of batter aside.
If making filled muffins: In oiled muffin tin, place 1/4 cup batter. Top with 1 level teaspoon for desired filling. Lightly press filling into bater until level with batter. Cover filling with 1 Tablespoon of reserved batter. Leave plain or sprinkle with a bit of cinnamon sugar.
If making plain muffins: You do not to set aside 3/4 cup of batter. In an oiled muffin tin place a scant 1/3 cup of bater. Leve plain or sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

I haven’t made the granola, but I suspect you could lower the oil in the recipe a bit. I may try it this weekend if I have some gluten free oats laying around here.
If you need an entirely oat-free granola try this, this, or this one. Or you could make the below recipe with a blend of buckwheat, quinoa and rice flakes in place of the gluten free oats.
Crystal’s Lazy Granola (doubled from original recipe)
Author/Source: From Crystal by Amy @ Amysfinerthings.com
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup mild flavored oil
1 cup honey
2 tsp. cinnamon
4 tsp. gluten free vanilla
14 cups certified gluten free oats, old fashioned
Mix brown sugar, oil, and honey in a small saucepan. Bring to a low boil. Remove from heat. Stir in cinnamon and vanilla. Pour over oats in a large bowl. Stir until well coated.
Spread oats in 2 9×13 pans or 2 rimmed cookie sheets. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes. Take out and stir. Return pan to oven. Turn oven off. Allow to sit for several hours or over night. Pull out and when completely cool place in zipper freezer bags.

GFCF Banana Pancakes
Author/Source: Angela from angelaskitchen.com
2 cups gluten free bean based flour blend
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
2 cups GFCF milk substitute (ie: almond, rice, etc.)
2 eggs
4 Tablespoons oil
2 Tablespoons maple syrup
2 ripe bananas, peeled and mashed
Whisk the dry ingredients together in a bowl. Mix the wet ingredients together, except mashed bananas, until blended then add to the dry ingredients. Stir until blended together. There will still be some lumps, but try not to have too many. Fold in mashed bananas. Cook 2-3 Tablespoons of batter per pancake in a preheated lightly oiled pan as you would regular pancakes, flipping pancake over when there are bubbles on the surface and the bottom is golden brown.
To Freeze: Cool pancakes on a wire rack. Place in large freezer bags, removing as much air as possible without smashing pancakes, seal, label and freeze. If desired, you can place a small piece of waxed paper between pancakes to make them easier to separate when frozen.
To serve: Toast until heated through. Serve with your favorite topping and enjoy!
