Anyone Ever Made gluten-free Fortune Cookies?

My son wants to try making fortune cookies using a gluten-free flour mix and some xanthan gum. Have any of you tried this, and if so did it work?

The only recipe we have is a conventional recipe using wheat flour. We were going to try converting it. I'm just afraid it may not hold together well enough.

There are 3 of 4 fortune cookie recipes in Roben Ryberg's latest cookbook. I have not tried them yet, so I cannot vouch for their results.

Thanks for the replies. I'm happy to hear that we can make authentic cookies from cornstarch! If we don't have success with that, then we'll start experimenting. My son has already made up the fortunes, but he won't let me read them.... :rolleyes:

I've made fortune cookies a few times. I have never used any flour at all. The recipes I have used are very similar to the cornstarch one listed above. Word of advice with fortune cookies: Only make one, maybe two at a time. Key to the whole thing is working with the cookies when they are still quite warm and pliable, because once they set up, there is no going back and getting them to be flexible again. You basically have about a minute, maybe a minute and a half to be able to manipulate and fold the cookies up. Don't get anxious and try baking six or seven at once, unless you have a crew of helpers, because you'll wind up with a couple of nice fortune cookies and four or five discs.

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
