Fruitmincepies Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I need to bake something - and I only have brown sugar or icing sugar. There is no need for it to be fancy, and I have plenty of regular baking ingredients (I just used up all my white sugar yesterday and don’t want to go to the shops). I’d prefer it to be gluten-free and I don’t have any GF flour (I usually bake stuff with almond meal), but I can just take the left over GF brownies I baked recently, for the GF person.

Kiwi Bicycle Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I just made a banana caramel blondie ( light brownie). Only used brown sugar and icing sugar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babetty Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I use brown sugar quite a lot in baking - banana bread, muffins, brownies & blondies etc. It won't be as light as white sugar and gives a nice hint of caramel, but I've swapped it in to recipes without any issue.

verucasalt Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I regularly use brown sugar because I like the taste better. I have never tried GF flour, but have used almond meal or chestnut meal (I have to order that online these days). I do not like coconut flour because of the dry texture.GF options:Orange and almond cake:https://recipes.csrsugar.com.au/recipe-items/flourless-orange-cake/That website is solid in that I have not had any disasters yet. I cut the sugar quantities down and add a pinch of salt when I bake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verucasalt Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I found this website to make your own GF flour but I don't have a lot of the ingredients. If you make GF things regularly you might have them: https://flannerys.com.au/2017/09/ultimate-gluten-free-baking-substitute-guide/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomson Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 We make gingerbread. Very easy (we use the Commonsense Cookbook recipe) and in patty pans to make single serves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cstar Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 That looks good [mention]Jenflea[/mention] but wow that's a lot of sugar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie28 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Traditional tea breads tend to use brown sugar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overlytired Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Nagi to the rescue? You won't even need the brown sugar. These are very good but filling; they could be made half the size.https://www.recipetineats.com/healthy-oatmeal-breakfast-cookies/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
