Getting Started

Use very ripe bananas (with brown spots) for maximum sweetness and moisture. This reduces the need for added sugar and improves the texture of gluten-free baked goods.
When using gluten-free flour blends, ensure they contain xanthan gum or add 1/2 teaspoon per cup of flour to provide structure and prevent crumbling.
Gluten-free batters can be thick. Do not overmix; mix until just combined to avoid a dense or gummy texture. Overmixing develops starches unnecessarily.
Bake at a slightly lower temperature (e.g., 325°F/160°C) for a bit longer than traditional recipes if your gluten-free baked goods are browning too quickly on the outside before cooking through inside.
