The matter of rice flour substitutes was brought to my attention recently through a message from a fellow GlutenFreeHelp user:
“I have a gluten intolerance and I’m also allergic to rice.
“What other options do I have that you might know of? I am already using almond flour. The sorghum flour doesn’t really agree with me either. Any suggestions would help me especially when creating baked goods that taste good.”
My reply:
“There are SO many flour “mixtures” and options to replace the rice. You have to keep in mind that the “mixture” will need to balance to make a whole structure to accommodate any particular recipe. The Xanthum gum will need to be altered or even the liquid based on which flours you use.”
Florida-based organization Allergies and Me is an incredible resource for children and adults with food allergy and intolerance issues.
Therefore I’m very proud to be associated with such a dedicated organization and to have contributed a gluten-free recipe to their website.
I invite you to take a look by clicking on the following links:

A short paragraph from their website is excerpted below:
“Tina Turbin is a children’s book author, Danny the Dragon, and provides gluten-free support on her blogsite, www.GlutenFreeHelp.info as well as her main website, www.TinaTurbin.com . Tina has donated one of her favorite gluten free recipes, “Browny Muffins”, and it should become a household favorite. “
