    Light Carrot Cake (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    This recipe comes to us from Nancy Garniez.

    Chop 2 cups of raw carrot chunks in the Vitamix. Set aside. In the container (no need to rinse) place the following:

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    ½ cup rice flour
    ½ cup corn meal
    ¼ cup each sweet potato flour, soy flour, and peanut flour
    ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
    ¼ to ½ cup vanilla sugar (i.e., sugar from a canister in which a vanilla bean or two is in residence)
    1 ½ teaspoon salt (optional)
    2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    1 ½ teaspoon baking soda
    3 teaspoons baking powder

    Blend. Stop. Add 4 large eggs and ¼ c. maple syrup mixed with ¼ c. oil (I use canola, safflower would do as well.) Tap-release red impact lever 5 times, then stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula. Repeat. (Or else just stir in a large mixing bowl until well blended. Add the carrots and a handful of raisins, or nuts if you prefer. I baked this is a greased loaf pan at 350 for about an hour, but you could use a 9 x 13 pan, or small loaf pans, until a toothpick came out clean. When cool I sliced it and froze it in a loaf-shaped freezer container. If I separate one additional slice each time I take a slice it is easy to get an unbroken piece of this delicious loaf, which is perfectly fine without icing.

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    Homemade strawberry shortcakes remind me of being a kid. I loved eating the strawberry shortcake while the homemade biscuits were still warm. This recipe is sure to satisfy your craving for real strawberry shortcake, not the spongy kind you buy at the store, but the southern home-style kind. Of course, good luck finding gluten-free strawberry shortcakes this good anywhere else. This recipe is gluten-free, nut-free and egg-free.
