    Buckwheat Flour

    Buckwheat is one of my favorite flours thanks to its rich, earthy flavor that smacks of toasted hazelnuts and cinnamon. It pairs especially well with chocolate, and it bakes up sturdy and tender thanks to a good balance of protein and and starch. Most buckwheat flour is made from toasted grain and is sometimes called dark buckwheat flour. Light buckwheat flour, which isn't as readily available, tastes more mild and neutral, similar to oat flour.

    Some favorite buckwheat recipes are these gluten-free banana buckwheat pancakes, chocolate-studded banana buckwheat muffins, and almond butter buckwheat cookies with chocolate and oats. These buckwheat chocolate chip cookies are chewy and so flavorful!

    As blueberries come into season here in California As blueberries come into season here in California, I've been dreaming about this gluten-free blueberry coffee cake. It's moist and tender, layered with jammy fruit and an addictively salty-sweet streusel topping. 

Oat flour, sorghum flour, and sweet rice flour build a moist and flavorful cake, and almond flour in the topping helps the streusel hold together. 

It would be an ideal addition to weekend brunch or potlucks, and it takes well to variations. I've made it with rhubarb instead of berries, for instance - so good!

Here are a few things readers have said about this cake:

"Better than any gluten-full coffee cake I ever had. This recipe is a keeper. THANK YOU!!" 

"So this is the best coffee cake I’ve ever had, GF or otherwise! Another genius recipe!"

"This was such a hit last night served as a dinner dessert. People were having seconds and thirds! It was absolutely delicious, fluffy and moist and flavorful with a crunch from the pecans on top." 

"This coffee cake is so good - a light, tender crumb and with a pleasant touch of lemon. If I didn’t know it was gluten free I wouldn’t even suspect so."

This version with whipped mascarpone, berry chia jam, and fresh berries was actually our wedding cake!

A trio of flours - millet, sweet rice, and oat - give the cake a mild, neutral flavor with a moist & springy crumb. 

The cake layers are naturally dairy-free and can be sweetened with maple syrup instead of sugar if you prefer.

    If you liked the gluten-free scones that I shared If you liked the gluten-free scones that I shared recently, you're going to love these gluten-free strawberry #shortcakes! 🍓

Tender almond flour biscuits (adapted from the scone recipe) are smothered with billows of whipped cream (shown here with culinayogurt for an easy DF option) and juicy strawberries. They're buttery, creamy, bright-tasting, and not too sweet.

Shortcakes make an ideal dessert for spring gatherings because the components can all be prepared ahead and assembled when you're ready to serve up dessert. 

Feel free to play around with different berries. Add other flavors to the biscuits (I especially love the lemon ginger variation from the scone recipe here). Or add a splash of liqueur to the fruit.

    Bake up a batch of these lemon blueberry swirl bis Bake up a batch of these lemon blueberry swirl biscuits to share with family or friends for a springtime treat! 

The recipe starts with buttery biscuit dough made with a trio of gluten-free flours and fresh lemon zest. Cultured butter from vermontcreamery has a clean, bright flavor and a high fat content, which, when rubbed into the dough, creates tender, buttery biscuits. 

Roll the dough up with fresh blueberries, cut them crosswise, and bake. The berries condense into jammy pockets encased in swirls of buttery dough. Top with an easy 3-ingredient mascarpone glaze for maximum deliciousness.

The biscuits can also be prepped overnight and popped in the oven day-of for an effortless brunch addition. 

Get the recipe vermontcreamery. Bojon appétit!
