Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 ¼ cups gluten-free oat flour (such as Bob's Red Mill®)

  • ½ cup potato starch

  • ⅓ cup cornstarch

  • ⅓ cup tapioca flour

  • 2 tablespoons xanthan gum

  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast

  • 1 teaspoon white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup warm milk

  • 1 egg

  • ¼ cup olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Directions

  1. Combine oat flour, potato starch, cornstarch, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, yeast, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer; whisk until well mixed, about 1 minute.

  2. Whisk milk, egg, olive oil, and vinegar together in a separate bowl until well combined, about 1 minute. Stir milk mixture in gradually to flour mixture on low speed; mix until a soft dough comes together, about 5 minutes.

  3. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide dough into 6 equal pieces; roll each piece on a floured surface to a 6-inch circle. Place on the prepared baking sheets; cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

  4. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Heat a pizza stone in the oven.

  5. Spray pita breads with water and place them straight on the hot pizza stone.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until puffed and lightly golden, 5 to 7 minutes.

Chef John's Chocolate Croissants

Chef John's Chocolate Croissants

Making your own chocolate croissants takes a while, but for these crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside pastries, it's time well spent. This recipe was adapted from one by Bruno Albouze, from The Real Deal (which he is). This is actually the quick version in that we're not leaving the dough to rest overnight before laminating with the butter.

Mango Oatmeal Breakfast Smoothie

Mango Oatmeal Breakfast Smoothie

This mango oatmeal breakfast smoothie is a great way to start off your day! For a creamier taste, use milk in place of orange juice. You can use vanilla yogurt instead of plain yogurt, if desired.

Steelhead Trout Bake with Dijon Mustard

Steelhead Trout Bake with Dijon Mustard

This steelhead trout recipe is really yummy — not overpowering with mustard. And, after all, any dish that begins with white wine has to be good! It's not oily or buttery or anything. I've made it with salmon, and it's equally tasty.

Quinoa Tabbouleh

Quinoa Tabbouleh

We love this quinoa tabbouleh on a hot summer day. Quinoa has a much nicer taste than bulgur and it's gluten-free so everyone can enjoy this Middle Eastern salad. The longer you let the tabbouleh sit, the better it tastes.

Roman-Style Tripe

Roman-Style Tripe

If beef tripe is prepared following this method, it has a pleasantly mild but distinct flavor. When it comes to great sauces for dipping crusty Italian bread, it doesn't get any better than this.
