4 cups gluten-free flour mix 2 tsp sugar 2 Tbsp baking powder 2 tsp salt ½ cup butter ¾ cup sour cream ¾ cup water 1 large egg (or 2 small eggs) extra butter, softened

In a large bowl, whisk together the GF flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut the butter into the mixture until there are no large chunks of butter.

In a medium bowl, beat together the sour cream, water, and egg. Stir this mixture into the flour mixture.

Sprinkle GF flour onto your work surface, then put out he dough and knead it lightly to bring it together. Roll it into a slab about ½” thick. Cut out circles of dough, I used a 3” cookie cutter. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Brush the tops of the biscuits with softened butter.

Place biscuits in freezer and set the oven to heat to 450° F. Once it has heated, bake the biscuits for 18-20 minutes, until the tops and bottoms are lightly golden brown.

Serve warm or let cool on a rack.

2 cups flour, or a gluten-free flour mix ½ cup sugar ½ tsp salt 2 ½ tsp baking powder ½ cup butter, frozen ¼ cup sour cream ¼ cup milk 1 egg 1 tsp vanilla extract 2/3 cup rolled oats 1/3 cup sliced almonds extra milk

Whisk flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder together in a large bowl. Grate the frozen butter and cut it into the flour mix until there is no dry powder.

Whisk milk, sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Pour over the flour mixture, add the oats and almonds, then stir to combine.

Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Dump the dough onto the sheet and press it together into a ball, then press it into a thick, flat disk. Use a dough cutter to cut it into 8 wedges. Pull them apart from each other. Brush the tops with the extra milk. Put the pan into the fridge or freezer while the oven is heating.

Preheat oven to 400° F. Bake for 18-25 minutes.

Crust: 1 ½ cups flour or a gluten-free flour mix ½ cup nut flour ¼ cup honey ½ cup butter

Filling: ¼ cup corn starch 2 Tbsp honey 1 tsp baking powder 1 lb plums 4 eggs

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a 9×13” cake pan.

Stir together the flour and nut flour. Cut honey and butter into the flour until there is no more fine powder and it can be pressed together into dough. Press dough evenly into the bottom of the pan. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly browned.

When the crust is baking, remove the stones from the plums, then combine the corn starch, honey, baking powder, plums, and eggs in a blender. Blend until liquefied.

Pour the filling over the hot crust, and bake for 20-25 more minutes.

4 chicken breasts 3 Tbsp butter 1/3 cup soup stock or water ½ cup lemon juice 1 ½ Tbsp corn starch 1 Tbsp honey 2 tsp minced garlic ½ tsp dried basil ½ tsp dried oregano 1 tsp salt ¼ tsp pepper optional: 4 small potatoes

Preheat oven to 400° F.

Melt butter in a skillet. Add the chicken and optional potatoes, chopped into large pieces. Cook chicken pieces for 3 minutes on each side, over medium-high heat. It is ok if the chicken is frozen. If the chicken is too large for all pieces to fit in the skillet, use 2 skillets or cook the pieces in batches.

Whisk the other ingredients together in a small bowl. Transfer the chicken and all its drippings into a baking dish. Pour the lemon sauce over it. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20-30 minutes, until the meat is at least 165° F inside. Larger pieces take longer to cook.

Single serving.

1 cup water ½ tsp salt 1/3 cup cornmeal or grits 1 tsp butter

Bring water to a boil. Add the salt. Slowly whisk the cornmeal into the water. Turn heat to low and stir until it is thick. This is almost instantaneous for a single serving, but longer for larger amounts. Stir in the butter.

Serve with savory or sweet toppings, as a breakfast, a side dish, or a base for a main dish.
