gluten-free Pate A Choux

[Nantzie]

I was wondering about whether or not someone had taken a stab at gluten-free pate a choux yet or not. I came across this recipe. The author has a wheat allergy, not celiac, so some of her recipes aren't gluten-free, but this is. He uses glutinous rice flour (reminder: glutinous in the case of rice just means it's sticky, and doesn't contain gluten) as a 1:1 substitute for regular flour.

I haven't made this, and I've never made pate a choux of any kind before either. Altough in the summertime when I start keeping my eyes out for funnel-cake stands, I might give it a shot.

Edit: Duh, forgot to post the link. Had a 2yo climbing on me.

Hi Nantzie

I haven't made the cream puffs but I know there are many versions that are wf/gluten-free out here.The funnel cake mix can be purchased through Marlene's mixes, she is from Texas. I do alot of researching for food items as I have two young grandchildren who are always looking for a new treat.

LOL

I was wondering about that also... not something I learned in french class

I guess it's the dough for pastries like cream puffs

According to Open Original Shared Link it's called 'cabbage dough' because the pastries look like little rows of cabbage when they're baking...

I <3 google

My aunt taught me how to make it many years ago. It's actually not hard at all once you get the hang of it. I do remember that it's important to mix the eggs in well and one at a time. I would think that would be true with a gluten-free version, too.
