Welcome to the first in my series of Gluten Free Recipes! My friend Isla who is a smoking hot chef, made these for me and is going to be supplying the recipes for this series on Gluten Free yummies! She has a lot of experience baking gluten-free foods so she is the perfect partner for this project. So although I didn’t bake these babies, we sure did eat them – A whole box was delivered to my front door…. Oh My!! I would never in a hundred years have said these were Gluten Free! They were amazeballs. Let me know what you think of the recipe in the comments. With regards to the gluten free self-raising flour, you should be able to get this from PicknPay, Dis-Chem or a health shop.
