Thanksgiving

I'm in full Thanksgiving mode, although I know April could give a flying... Anyway. I'm in search of a couple of great recipes which I deftly avoided last year:

Pie Crust
Dinner Roll

Eek. I know. A bazillion recipes to choose from so I was wondering if anyone had any tried and true on the back burner. For rolls, I was looking at this recipe which sounds comparable to the "butt rolls" served at my in-laws. As far as pie crust goes, I'm overwhelmed. I'm seriously considering buying a premade shell unless someone wants to scare me off from that. Little D wants a strawberry pie (out of season, of course, he was not interested in any of the many fall selections I offered) and I'm making a pumpkin pie so I don't want to kill myself baking. Plus I'm hangin' with one of my favorite ladies on the Wednesday before.

For anyone looking for something yummy, I made this Pumpkin Cake from the Gluten Free Goddess for Little C's birthday and it was decidedly un-GF tasting and super delicious. For my CF sisters, I'm not up on my dairy-free frostings, so I'll let you handle that issue if you wish.

Help a sister out?

  3. I went to sunflower to buy my pumpkin pie and they no longer carry it. Boo! I'm trying this one (meaning Ryan will make it) this year...http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.com/2008/10/vegan-pumpkin-pie-worthy-of.html. I'll let you know how it tastes. It's crustless. Of course by the time it gets cooked and eaten the info I give you will be null and void until next year. Oh well.

  4. Thanks Missa! That may be perfect for the strawberry pie.
    April- I'm doing a crustless recipe, too. One I found in Living Without.
