Pumpkin Bars
Pumpkin
Bars
While they are called "Pumpkin Bars", it's really
more like a cake. The finished product is about 2-3"
tall - not flat like a brownie.
They guys are an annual fave around our house and
with family & friends. In almost all cases, Peg
makes these [the GF version] since they are
indistinguishable from the gluten bars.
Ingredients:
4 eggs beaten
2 cups sugar
1 cup canola oil
1 cup pumpkin
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp Penzey's cinnamon
1 tsp Arm & Hammer baking soda
1 tsp Calumet baking powder
1 cup of Jules Gluten Free Flour
(GFCO Certified
Product)
1 cup of Sorghum Flour (Bob's Redmill)
1 tsp Xanthan gum
Combine all ingredients & mix well. Pour in to
greased 11x15 pan.
Bake @ 350 for 25-30 min. 8 x 11.5 pan will work for
1/2 recipe
Frosting:
4-5 oz cream cheese (softened)
3 tbsp softened butter
3/4 lb powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp milk
Mix & beat until fluffy. Spread on warm pumpkin
bars.
These will freeze quite well.
Until the next good eats...

Lemond Almond Cookies
by Aneh Mundi
We got this recipe from Aneh in a gluten-free cooking class we took in 2005. Peg finally had a chance to try it out.
Ingredients
2 eggs
1 1/3 cup of powdered sugar
3 1/2 cups Almond Meal (Bob's Red Mill)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind (about 1/2 lemon)
1/2 teaspoon GF vanilla (Penzey's!)
Directions
In a mixer beat eggs and sugar
In a separate bowl combine almond meal, baking powder and lemon rind
Add eggs and mix to form soft dough
With oiled hands roll rough into small balls about the size of a walnut.
Flatten out balls in powdered sugar. Flatten some thing smooth (glass, plate, etc)
Bake at 350 for 10-15 min. or until GBD (Golden, Brown & Delicious).
These taste as good as they look!
