DRY MIX

Preheat oven to 300øF, prepare pans. Warm the mixed fruit in the water or presoak to plump it. Add & mix in the apple puree & citrus rind.

Gluten free baking poses several problems for the cook. The products tend to be heavy & crumbly & lack flavour. Adding extra binding agents like eggs & cheese will help, & adding extra flavour with nuts, dried fruits, juices, spices & herbs will give a happy result. Use only soy, rice, potato, corn, chick pea & buckwheat flours.
