Super Easy Strawberry Shortcake

Hi!

This is a very strange sounding recipe and I had my reservations but alas it was as tastey as it was easy. You will most likely have all the ingredients in your house. GFers and non-GFers alike loved it.

The recipe is from recipe zaar and is as follows. Enjoy!

1/2 cup butter

1 cup icing sugar (confectioners/powdered)

4 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup cornstarch

1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 12-muffin pan (or use liners).

In a large bowl cream butter and sugar, using electric mixer.

Add the eggs and vanilla. Beat until light and fluffy.

In a small bowl mix the cornstarch and baking powder together and add slowly to the creamed mixture. (If added too quickly, it will fly about the kitchen.).

Mix until well blended.

Fill the greased muffin tins half full.

Bake for 15 minutes. (Test with a toothpick, after 15 minutes, even if the top looks shiny).

Remove from the pan while still warm. (They will look like little cupcakes.But trust me they will taste just like little shortcakes).

Serve topped with strawberries, and whipped cream.

I'm also going to make them tonight!! Did you put cool whip on top or just leave the strawberries as the only topping?

Hi!

I hope those of you trying this tonight enjoy it!! We put whipped cream on top of the strawberries. I am sure any topping would be great - cool whip, whipped cream, etc.

I think this would be good with any kind of fruit too. My son (who actually does not have celiac and is very picky re: gluten-free food) at 4 of the muffins with butter and jam in one sitting.

Have fun!

Hi,

You are right, they are Very tasty !! I just made them.

I have a recipe that calls for angel food cake cut up and comstock blueberry filling and comstock strawberry filling, powdered sugar, cream cheese and cool whip and vanilla. You mix the cut up pieces of angel food cake (which I think these litte short cakes would be wonderful in) with the powdered sugar, cream cheese, vanilla and coolwhip, and then you layer in the blueberry and strawberry filling. I always make this on the 4th of July or when my family feels like having it. I will use you little short cakes in it from now on.

If anyone would like the recipe let me know and I will post it.

Thanks again

Sue

Hi!

Here's another really fun idea . . . I made these little shortcakes again tonight (soooo easy!). I filled half of the muffin tins with the batter, then to the remaining batter I added cocoa powder. I filled the other half of the cups with the chocolatate mix and then I added a little choc. batter to a couple of the vanilla ones for a marbled effect. So we ended up with three different kinds of cakes.

All came out great and I have very happy kids! I'm thinking the chocolate ones would be good with vanilla icecream and toppings.

Hey,

great picture . . . making me hungry! Try 'em in chocolate next. We sliced them into round disks and made like little woopie pies by putting whipped cream between two disks. Yum!

Very strange but delicious recipe!

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
