Welcome back to Gluten-Free Wednesdays! If this is your first time here, GFW is the weekly blog carnival event that I co-host with Linda of The Gluten-Free Homemaker and Lynn of Lynn’s Kitchen Adventures. All gluten-free food-related posts are welcome, so GFW is a great opportunity to learn about living gluten free via recipes, safe dining options, the best ingredients for the best results, and more.
I hope all of you reading will take a moment or two to check out all the entries and if you’re a blogger, be sure to link up your gluten-free food posts. Remember that you only need to link up to one of our blogs, but your post(s) will show up on all three. When you link up, please remember to use a title that will best share your recipe and also include your blog name (abbreviated) in the description if possible. (You have 100 characters you can put to very good use.)
My Posts from This Past Week
~ On gfe:
* 15 Favorite GFE Recipes for Easter (Including a Few That Also Work for Passover)
~ On All Gluten-Free Desserts:
* Crustless Coconut Pie from Gluten Free Easily ~ This one is every bit as good as it looks!
* Pink Lemonade Cake from GF Jules ~ Four recipes in one create this luscious cake!
* Top 20 “Best” Gluten-Free Desserts for March
There were lots of amazing cakes and …
and scrumptious desserts in several other categories, too!
The Most Popular Post on Gluten-Free Wednesdays Last Week
We had a tie between two posts … put them together and you have dinner and dessert:
* Oven-Baked Chimichangas from Tessa, The Domestic Diva and
* Vegan Brownies with Marshmallow Fluff from Gluten Free Vegan Love
My GFW Post Picks from Last Week
The following posts caught my eye last week:
* Easter Chocolate Crackle from The Gluten and Dairy Free Bakehouse (unfortunately, this site is no longer active) ~ Kylie uses only two ingredients to create these lovely candies.
* Light and Fluffy Gluten-Free Bread from Lynn’s Kitchen Adventures ~ Lynn simply took her popular light and fluffy rolls recipe and made it into this beautiful loaf of bread.
* Moist Carrot Cake with Fluffy Vanilla Frosting from Allergy Free Alaska ~ With this recipe, the title and photo say it all. Megan created this cake on her own birthday and “gave” it to us!
* Pink Lemonade Cake from GF Jules ~ I simply had to feature this recipe on All Gluten-Free Desserts as soon as I saw it—see photo in AGFD section above. GF Jules is the new site of my good friend Jules Shepard, whose flour mixes and other baking products you love. Jules is one of our much loved heroes in the gluten-free community and she could use your support right now. Read more here.

Hello my friend. I’m FINALLY getting around to participating this week. It has been a slow transition back to regular blogging. But I think I’ve got (some of) my groove back. 🙂
I see that you are now part of GFW. That’s so exciting. Link parties are so fun. And I especially love Gluten Free Wednesdays. So this week I am playing a little catch-up and sharing 4 recipes.
Have a great week, Shirley. And thanks for hosting!
Hugs,
–Amber
Shirley says
Amber–Even one week off the routine can make it hard to get back in the groove! You’re doing great, dear! Thanks so much for linking up to GFW with such great recipes, too. Yes, Linda graciously invited me and Lynn to join her as cohosts. So much amazingness each week!
Happy almost Friday, dear! xo,

Thanks for hosting Shirley!
I’ve linked one of my favorite cracker recipes tonight. Tomorrow morning I plan to sit down with a big cup of coffee and find inspiration for our Easter meal with everything linked above.
Wishing you a very happy Easter.

Megan | Allergy Free Alaska says
Hi Shirley,
I should have known better than to check out your post prior to eating breakfast. Now I want Tessa’s chimis with a side of vegan brownies with marshmallow fluff. And a taste of everything else that’s featured! ;D My eyes are certainly bigger than my stomach!
Thank you for featuring my carrot cake! This week I linked up my tortillas and apple pie.
Happy Easter!!
xoxo
Shirley says
Hi Megan–I do understand what you mean! This week’s linky is especially overflowing, and your amazing grain-free tortillas and delicious apple pie are terrific additions. It must be the Easter factor or folks simply learning about GFW. 😉
Hope you have a great Easter with your lovely family! xo,
Shirley
Michelle @ Life on the Horizon says
