A New Linky Venture with #G2BGF and a revisit of a favourite recipe – Coco-Banana Freeze Bites (gluten free/optional dairy free)

In the five years that I have been blogging, I have shared my recipes across dozens of recipe-linkies, but have never managed to cross the threshold in hosting one myself. The idea of hosting has always appealed to me, but I have held back, worrying about the extra time involved (whilst trying to fit the blog around a full time job and parenting)….. until now that is. My good friend and fellow blogger Rebecca over at Glutarama has asked me to join her in co-hosting a monthly linky ‘Got To Be Gluten Free’ (or #G2BGF for short) and I am excited to have said yes (albeit I’m a bit late in actually taking up the reins on account of there having been too much other stuff to deal with since Christmas).

The linky fits in perfectly on Gluten Free Alchemist and will be open to join from the 1st to the 28th of each month….. Any post that features a gluten free recipe can be linked, whether you are a free from blogger or not, so please come and join our monthly celebration of gluten free food.

The rules are simple….. Just grab the badge, share your creation, comment on the hosts posts and at least two others (well….. it’s so good to share the love right?) and tweet/insta/facebook your link to us with the hashtag #G2BGF, so we can spread the word about how wonderful you all are.

Old posts are fine, as long as they fit the rules….. In fact this month, I am linking up one of my own most favourite (and most requested in our house….) recipes that first featured on Gluten Free Alchemist way back in 2014….. Coco-Banana Freeze Bites…… Easy to make, healthy frozen treats full of amazingly healthy ingredients that are perfect for a grab-and-go breakfast or nutritious between-meals snack.

It always saddens me when I look back over my early posts and realise that my readership was so small at the time that some of my best recipes have merely gathered the dust of cyber-space and not been enjoyed. So I am on a mission to start the long process of revisiting the gems and updating the best posts for my lovely readers…. and I have every intention of sharing as widely as possible to make sure that this time round, I spread the word about just how yummy they are.

My lovely co-host Rebecca is sharing her Self-Saucing Chocolate Pudding. Oh my goodness it looks amazing….. I don’t know about you, but I could devour the lot in one go….. Interestingly I have never made a self-saucing pudding (either gluten free or not), so I for one will be testing Rebecca’s pud.

But, over to you….. Come join us and feel free to link whatever you want…. old or new. I can’t wait to see what amazing GLUTEN FREE goodies you share this month. We will of course round up all the entries at the start of next month and will choose our favourite as a winner to share.

And if you’re looking for somewhere extra to link your creation, nip over to the #FreeFromFridays Linky hosted by Le Coin De Mel and Free From Farmhouse, which runs every Friday.

Shared with Brilliant Blog Posts at Honest Mum

Grab the linky badge here and add to your post, it’ll link to our linky main menu so no need to edit – life’s too short!

    Lovely to have you as my linky buddy darling, and what a recipe to start the ball rolling (see what I did there?) I'm a sucker for snacks like these, as they're healthy I can have twice as much right? 😉

    It's so great to see yourself and Rebecca co-hosting this linky together and I'm really pleased I managed to link up this time (missed the boat on the last one lol). x

      Thank you Jo. It's about time I got my act together on the linky front….. I've been wanting to do something for years, but have always been put off by the idea of doing it alone….. So it's great to have Rebecca giving me a prod.
      Thanks for linking up! x

      That's absolutely fine Vicki. We would normally want a recipe, but given that this is such a positive support for people making the transition to gluten freedom, it's welcome here!

      I imagine they go down a storm Mel. We LOVE Kalettes and the thought of adding Camembert to the mix sounds divine. I will have to give your recipe a try. Thanks for joining #G2BGF x

    I've just linked up my gluten free (and vegan) Mexican beans stew and shared the linky everywhere!
    I've also been revisiting my old posts, which back when I started 2 years ago hardly got any views – I've been reshooting, adding stuff to them and in some cases almost rewriting them! It's a great feeling, a bit like giving your house a good spring clean (which I want to do desperately but blog spring cleaning is my priority!)

      Thanks Monika. Your stew looks amazing!
      Cleaning up the blog is absolutely like giving the house a spring clean….. So liberating! x

Perfect Panna Cotta. Sweet with Vanilla. With the Perfect Panna Cotta. Sweet with Vanilla. With the desired ‘wobble’ and drizzled with beautiful, tangy Berry Coulis. 🍓
Being a Coeliac household, it’s a favourite dessert. It’s also one of the rare desserts that isn’t a gluten free brownie when you eat out... I miss eating out!
How’s everyone else doing? What are you most missing with lockdown?
It’s so long since restaurants were allowed to open here. We didn’t really come out of lockdown after the summer... I really feel for the local businesses ☹️
But in the absence of dinner out... We just have to make our own Panna Cotta. 
Creamy, meaty, super smooth... 
Who’s with me?
The recipe is on the blog... follow the link from my profile (lnk.bio).

A brief lesson in Courtesy and Integrity... These A brief lesson in Courtesy and Integrity... These are my gluten free Bourbon Biscuits. Optional Dairy Free and Vegan.
I worked hard to get the recipe right. It took many goes and many tweaks to achieve the texture and flavour that is so Bourbon-iconic.
That’s a lot of ingredients. A lot of ‘getting it wrong’… until I was ‘getting it right’. 
It takes a lot of effort and determination to create recipes that work and work well… And that are at least as good as their glutenous counterparts.
Imagine my utter FRUSTRATION when I found that someone had taken my recipe and (having changed one simple ingredient… removing the ‘pinch of salt’ from the biscuit dough), claimed it as their own… The only credit given to me was that they had been ‘inspired’ by my recipe. 
Even worse… they posted the FULL RECIPE on Instagram, Facebook and heaven only knows where else. 
They made a video for Instagram which has had over 7,000 views. They posted it on Facebook (without any mention of Gluten Free Alchemist initially)…That was another reach of thousands. 
I have received NOTHING from their extreme ‘generosity’ in sharing my recipe. Not even a direct link to my website, from which I am trying to make a living following redundancy.
I’m not going to name and shame (although frankly as a commercial organisation they should have known better)… But INTEGRITY is important.
If you take a recipe from someone else… Give them FULL CREDIT. If you tweak a recipe with small alterations… Still give them FULL CREDIT. Be sure to direct people to the original website post where the recipe can be found in full. 
As a recipe developer, you are at the whim of the integrity and honesty of others not to steal your work. People who take without asking and without any gratitude destroy trust and faith.
Thank you for reading xx
For those of you who wanted the recipe… You’ll find a printable recipe card at Gluten Free Alchemist xx
PINCH OF SALT IS OPTIONAL

I promised the recipe for my gluten free VIENNESE I promised the recipe for my gluten free VIENNESE FINGERS ages ago. But it slipped my mind and I forgot to post them. I’m SO sorry. 🙈🙈
Oh well... better later than never I guess. And hopefully this one was worth waiting for. 
Although they can be a little tricky to make, Viennese Fingers are super-light and totally melt-in-the-mouth delicious. 😍
Add a chocolate-dipped end and they are even more heavenly 💜
Who wants to try them?

Have you ever had Angel Food Cake (not to be confu Have you ever had Angel Food Cake (not to be confused with Angel Cake)... ?
Pure white sponge... slightly sticky and perfectly mallowy... Entirely fatless and made with whipped egg whites. This meringue-based cake takes me straight back to childhood. 😁
I took a recipe from my mother’s 70s Good Housekeeping Cook Book and removed the gluten so I can still enjoy.... xx

No bells. No whistles. Just perfect #glutenfree pa No bells. No whistles. Just perfect #glutenfree pancake development.
Looking good? The next batch will be ‘dressed’... but there a something quite pleasing about a naked pancake stack... right? 
I’m nearly there... One more batch and I’ll be happy 😄
