gluten, egg, soy and dairy free brownies converting cake mix

[Guest guest]

Thank you, Diane, for the recipe for egg substitute recipe. It sounds

terrific! Don't you think this would work in bread also? When I use the

flax seed gel in gluten-free bread the hulls leave a dark color in streaks

and it isn't too appealing!

 

Are Miss Roben's mixes available in any stores? Or only online? Our health

food store carries two or three brands but nothing from Miss Robens. I

would like to try the Miss Robens products.

 

Thanks for the info. and cake recipe.

The past few months I have been experimenting with using Agar Flakes as an egg

replacement, and it works well in most recipes. To replace each egg I have been

using 1 teaspoon agar flakes+ app. 1/4 cup water(microwave on high for 45

seconds) and then add 1/ 2 - 1 teaspoon starch(i.e. arrowroot) + 1 teaspoon

baking powder- whisk using caution as the mixture will erupt out of the

container when the baking powder is added. This works especially well when

making light colored desserts when flaxseed can easily be seen. A heaping

teaspoon of flaxseed works equally as well when used in place of the agar flakes

+ the other listed ingredients.

 

 

 

GLUTEN, EGG, SOY, DAIRY AND CORN FREE BROWNIES USING MISS ROBEN " S CHOCOLATE CAKE

MIX

 

1 package Miss Roben's Chocolate Cake Mix

 

1/ 2 cup canola oil

 

1 jar baby plums or prunes

 

2/ 3 cup water + 3 teaspoons agar flakes + 2 teaspoons arrowroot starch + 3

teaspoons baking powder (microwave water and agar flakes on high for 45 seconds.

Remove and carefully whisk in arrowroot starch and baking powder, using caution

to prevent the mixture from expanding out of the container. It will look like

foamy egg whites when the mixture is combined together)

 

In a medium mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and blend until smooth.

Transfer mixture into greased 8 x 8 pan, and bake in a 350 degree preheated oven

for 30 -40 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Or,

divide batter among two 8 x 8 pans and reduce baking time for more fudgy

brownies.

 

*Variation: Raspberry Brownies: Add 3/4 cup fresh raspberries to the batter.

 

Chocolate Chip: Add 3/4 cup chocolate chips(dark or white chocolate chips)
