With a quick look at Gluten-Free Wednesday (GFW), you’ll have many more gluten-free eating ideas at hand for Thanksgiving and other times of the year! Ideas like a mouthwatering gluten-free Breakfast Blueberry Cornbread recipe for example. (Wouldn’t your holiday guests love that?)
If this is your first time visiting on Wednesday, GFW is the weekly blog carnival that I co-host with my friends Linda of Gluten-Free Homemaker and Lynn of Lynn’s Kitchen Adventures. If you’re a blogger, please link up your gluten-free eating ideas (following guidelines at the bottom of this post). Link up to either my, Linda’s, or Lynn’s GFW post and your submission will show up on all three of our blogs. Plus, readers choose their favorites each week via clicking on links and checking them out and I and my co-hosts do the same by following links and seeing what strikes our fancy!
If you want to follow Linda, Lynn, and me “all over,” here are our blog and other social media links:

My Highlights from gfe
~ Gluten-Free Texas Sheet Cake or Secret Cake or ? ~ Go ahead, tell me … what do you and your family call this much beloved chocolate cake that makes an ideal dessert for a special occasion? We great up calling in Secret Cake, but eventually I learned that most people call it Texas Sheet Cake, although I’ve heard it called a few more things, too. Gooey, rich, indulgent, divine … okay, I meant other names as well, but it’s called all those things, too!
~ My GFW Post “Pick”
~ Mouthwatering Gluten-Free Breakfast Blueberry Cornbread from Simply 123 Allergy Free ~ I’ve long loved the combination of cornmeal and blueberries, so this bread from Phyllis was an easy winner for me. It really does look mouthwatering, doesn’t it? I am a big fan of the “slightly crunchy and incredibly moist texture” that she describes.
The Carnival
We appreciate your participation and are happy to share many of the links on social media sites. However, as much as we hate to put a damper on this fun carnival, entries that do not follow the guidelines will not be shared and will be deleted from the linky.
~ You must link back to one of the co-hosts.
~ Links should be about a gluten-free eating idea. While it doesn’t have to be a recipe, it should be food related.
~ Recipes should have gluten-free ingredients or options in the recipe (not elsewhere in the text).
~ If you’re new, please read all the guidelines.

Thanks for hosting guys! I’m currently working (well, will be continuing once I’m back on home soil!) trying to make gluten free carrot cake truffles…it’s the frosting which is a killer!
Shirley says
You’re welcome, Arman. Thank YOU for linking up with two more great recipes! 🙂 Enjoy your break from work right now, but can’t wait for the Carrot Cake Truffles recipe. 😉

Thanks for hosting! I really wish I could eat eggs because those french toast muffins sound awesome.
xoxo,
Tia
Shirley says
Thanks for linking up, Tia! That chowder of yours looks phenomenal! There are actually some eggless French Toast recipes. I wonder if those recipes might be used as inspiration to create an egg-free version of Sharon’s recipe. 😉
xoxo,
Shirley
Tia @ Tia's Kitchen says
Ooooo. Great idea! I need to google more egg-less stuff to figure out what I can do. Now, If I can just get an eggless scrambled egg that isn’t tofu. The tofu scrambled egg just doesn’t do it for me.
xoxo,
Tia

Another Wednesday success with amazing recipes and links. Those pumpkin balls dipped in chocolate are being made today–what a fantastic idea. Thanks Shirley for being the hostess with the mostest. Have a great week friend! Sherron
Shirley says
Hey Sherron–Thanks, dear! I hope you made those Pumpkin Fudge Balls and enjoyed them! I have been imagining how luscious they must be. 😉
Hope you’re having a great week, too. You might even be getting some snow tonight!

Hi Shirley,
I shouldn’t come to your site when I’m trying to avoid sweets. LOL! Oh goodness everything looks so good! I’m still drooling over that cake of yours!
This week I’m linking up my new recipe for Perfect Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Cinnamon Rolls, and an old favorite – my Best Gluten-Free Flaky Pie Crust Recipe. Thanks for hosting!
xo,
Megan
Shirley says
That is the truth, dear! But you know how it goes … hardly anyone visits anyone’s blog if there aren’t sweets, right? Yes, this cake is totally indulgent! One day I will make a healthier version.;-)
Your Cinnamon Rolls are indeed PERFECT! Plus that Flaky Pie Crust of yours. Both are fabulous recipes for the holidays! 🙂
Thanks for linking up, dear. xoxo,
Shirley
Vicky says
I have never heard of Texas Sheet Cake/Secret Cake. I’m always fascinated by all the names you have for cakes – I wonder if we have anything similar here? We rarely use buttermilk in recipes so I guess not.
Well today, I’m sharing my grain free chocolate chip and hazelnut cookies because who doesn’t like a chocolate chop cookie now and again!
Thank you for hosting!
Shirley says
Vicky–How interesting that buttermilk is not used often in recipes in your part of the world. We’re likewise fascinated by the names of your recipes. Always fun to check them out. I guess food bloggers are better prepared for recipes in each other’s countries than those who have on “food exposure.” 😉
Love those beautiful and healthy cookies of yours, dear. There are never enough great chocolate chip cookie recipes!
xo,
Shirley
Audrey @ Gluten-Free Vegan Love says
Loving all the ongoing pumpkin love around here 🙂 {Katie’s truffles look so cute!}. Not sure what I’d call the sheet cake tbh — but it looks delish! 🙂
Thanks for the party, Shirley!
Shirley says
I was waiting to see what amazing desserts you would link up this week, Audrey! You did not disappoint! Hehe and thanks on the cake. 🙂 Oh and, yes, Katie is a master at cute and delicious! 😉
Shirley
Audrey @ Gluten-Free Vegan Love says
Thanks, Shirley! 🙂
Your cake actually got me thinking of sheet cakes all evening 🙂 . A Texas sheet cake just seems like such a lovely dessert to enjoy with family. I’ll definitely have to explore this treat in the near future.
swathi says

Shirley says
Hey Swathi–I assume you mean the Texas Sheet Cake/aka Secret Cake. It’s pretty darned delicious! 😉 Thanks so much for sharing!
