Gluten-free Apple Tart
I began baking small informal tarts several years ago when the boys started peeling off for college. Gus will eat fruit pie, but doesn’t ask for it. My husband LOVES fruit pie, especially cherry, but we can’t make our way through a whole 9 inch “deep dish” in a reasonable few days or week. These … Continue reading

Gus reported that the cook at his residence at Stanford made gluten-free chocolate chip cookies using … Continue reading
