Gluten free chocolate beetroot muffins

Beetroot?!!! Let me explain. The problem with gluten free muffins, I often find, is that they are dry. Not usually when fresh out of the oven, but often the next day, and almost always on day 2. When considering this dessicated dilemma, I remembered seeing some TV program or other where they added beetroot for … Read more

Around Christmas time, parties and other excuses, it’s always handy to have some gluten free sweeties handy, and these are quick and easy to make.

I don’t know about you, but I need a big gluten free breakfast in the morning.
