A Gluten-Free Olive Branch
Posted: January 22, 2012 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: giveaways, gluten-free, recipes 65 Comments »Giveaway update: I have had a sudden surge in comments beyond my usual people. This is GREAT! But since I can’t see all your Facebook pages, could you please just leave another comment if you share the post on Facebook (or twitter) so I can make sure everyone has the right number of entries? Thanks so much!
I have so many friends who are living gluten-free lives. I always feel a little twinge of guilt when I publish recipes that contain flour (which is pretty much every recipe) because I know that some of my regular (ie: favorite) readers are home crying into their gluten-free crispix, disappointed that they will not be able to eat the deliciousness that comes out of my kitchen.
So to make it up to you, I have located a recipe for donuts and a recipe for BIEGNETS that are completely gluten-free.
Yes, these recipes are more labor-intensive than my canned biscuit donuts or my easy-peasy beignets, but I bet they will be really tasty.
To sweeten my apology, I am going to offer one of my readers a 5-pound bag of Jules’ all-purpose flour. Just leave a comment here for one entry and get another entry by reposting on Facebook. I’ll draw a name on Tuesday.
It’s not Fat Tuesday, but you’ll be stuffing your face with beignets like it is.
Whoo hoo! Olive branch accepted
You have made my day!!!!! And, this Branch accepts your olive branch….love you and love your blog!! Thanks friend!
Could be my (very biased) imagination- – - – -but does anyone else see a “Halo” around Charlotte in this picture???
Ha ha. She does look rather angelic!
Jenn, I am so super excited!!! I’ve not tried Jules’ All Purpose GF flour but I hope I win this so i get to!! It is not easy baking gluten free. But my Cinnamon Chex GF are pretty yummy!
Thanks for the recipes too.
I would like this gluten free olive branch DELIVERED to my house on Wednesday. No offense to the ladies above, but my birthday needs some GF love.
I would love to try jules gf flour, I have heard such good things about it. Please pick me!!
Yum! With pregnancy cravings in full swing, I’m really missing some of my old gluteny favorites. Incidentally, both recipe links above direct to the biegnets recipe.
Thanks for the heads up Johanna! I corrected the recipe link.
Thanks! They look delicious. I’m eager to give them a try. I also shared the giveaway on fb so my gf family and friends have a chance.
Jules herself has linked us to your blog which is why I’m here! We love her products and would love to win some more. Thank you for giving me a new blog to add to my reader
Awesomeness! I’ve never tried Jules before, and I’d love to… I’ll post on FB too!

I would love to win a 5 lb bag of gluten free flour.

Oh apologies accepted!!! Biegnets have been on our list to make for our granddaughters ever since seeing Princess and the Frog… What a wonderful time this will be to make them all together! And being as I haven’t made homemade donuts since my husband was diagnosed with Celiac 5 years ago.. um, yes, I’ll be making those, too!
) Thank you!!!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!
We thank you!:)
I would love to give her GF flour mix a tryI am new to being GF and this would make my cooking and baking that much easier. =)
Would love to try beignets recipe using Jules’ flour. I already have some of Jules’ flour in my pantry, so if my name comes up, you can feel free to pick another lucky winner! Thanks for the recipe though and for considering your gluten-free blog visitors!
This would be awesome as my daughter is GF!
Thanks for the giveaway.
Thanks for spreading the awareness and ease of baking GF with the help of a little knowledge and a great product!
Would LOVE to try Jules Gluten Free Flour Mix! Very grateful for the chance to win some-thankyou!
it’s very kind of you to be open to gluten free recipes! making food fun is important when food allergies make it no fun. thanks!
Being a celiac is hard. Feeling genuine compassion from those that don’t makes it a bit easier
I would love a chance to win this flour! I recently started cooking only gluten free when I discovered my four year old has a allergy to it. Thanks for the recipes too!
I miss donuts so much, the frozen kind just dont cut it
Jules has so many delish recipes and I can’t wait to try the biegnet recipe above with a free sample! Thanks to “branching” out.
I would love to give this flour a try! Thanks for the recipes!!!
Jules flour is the best! Thanks for doing this giveaway! I am new to your blog and definitely checking out the recipes!
Would love to try the flour. GF flours are sooo expensive and I now am cooking for my Mom & Dad (Mom is ill & Dad has finely learned to re-heat in the microwave)
finely=finally
Accepting your olive branch. Would love to win some flour to do some normal baking with. There are three of us at church that are gluten free and we can never eat anything during our fellowship time.
I will also share this on my facebook page
I’d like to try Jules’ flour. I’ve been thinking about it and when I saw her FB post I came right over. It’s also nice to meet a blogger I didn’t know before. Thanks!
Hey!
Love biegnets and love using gluten free flour!
You are a splendid friend. So very few gluten eaters think of us at all, except for when they are curious, grilling us with questions while we eat. It means so much when someone makes the effort to include us in the celebration & nurturing of food. Both recipes look fantastic and winning the flour to give beignets a try would be splendid. Thank you so much for the surprise invitation today of enjoying a culinary treat.

We love Jules Gluten Free Flour and mixes… thanks for the funny post!
Love the Jules’ Gluten Free Flour! Thanx for the giveaway!
I so need this. I’m Celiac and so miss donuts.
I have to add that Jule’s Gluten Free is THE absolute best flour ever! It has made it possible to almost feel un gluten free,simply by the taste. So many other GF items have an aftertaste or texture difference, but with Jule’s, I have made homemade flour tortillas again, french fried onions for a green bean casserole and totally changed our everyday cooking and holidays! It’s worth every penny and she’s got customers for life!!!
You’re so great to think of us that must eat gluten free! Love Jules Flour!
Great idea! Many recipes can have the flours substituted.
I would love to win Jules gf flour so I could make some yummy donuts!
Thanks for hosting this giveaway!
Thanks! I’d love to win as my daughter and I are gluten-free.
Wonderful!! Thank you
We actually love the Jules GF Flour!
Jules flour is the best! Thx for the olive branch and sharing.
To anyone who is just starting out in the gluten free world they will be glad they stumbled upon Jules Gluten Free Flour, as they will benefit by learning so much from her – an abundance of gluten-free knowledge! 
Thanks for the olive branch, much appreciated! And no worries on recipes, us GF’ers take great recipes & turn them into great GF recipes
PS – Jules herself sent us this link from facebook; we’re all pretty excited!!
