Title: New Thermi owner
Post by: JanB on August 04, 2011, 05:36:38 am

Hi my name is Jan, I have had my Thermomix since early June and are travelling Far North Queensland with it in our off road caravan.
I live in Melbourne most of the year but travel to warmer climates in the winter.
The internet has been a great help in learning tips, tricks & new recipes.
Having health & dietary  issues the Thermomix make it so much easier to make meals, cake & breads that I am able to tolerate.
There is one recipe I am hoping someone can assist me with and that is a good wheat free dry biscuit recipe as I don't seem to be able to find one.

Cheers JanB

Welcome to the forum Jan.  I don't have a recipe for any gluten free crackers but here is a recipe for gluten-free plain flour that may help you.

GLUTEN-FREE PLAIN FLOUR/ SELF RAISING FLOUR
Mix together 1 cup rice flour, 1 cup potato flour and 1 cup soy flour and store in an airtight container.  To make your own SR flour add 1 & 1/2 tablespoons gluten-free baking powder to the above plain flour mix.  Sift all ingredients together and store in an airtight container.

Good luck
Trudy

Hi Trudy,
Thank you for the welcome and also the gluten free flour recipe, I will give it a try and let you know how the dry biscuits  turn out using gluten free flour.
Cheers JanB
