7 gluten-free Thanksgiving recipes to enjoy this holiday

Cooking for crowds can be an intimidating task. Throw in accommodating food allergies, and the task becomes even more daunting.

For all of our gluten-free friends out there, don't worry, we've got your back. While some of your favorite dishes – like mashed potatoes, roasted squash, and even green beans – are naturally gluten-free, most of the meal is not.

So, today we're going to give you some ideas for your meal so that you can have a safe and delicious holiday. And without further ado, here are our seven essential gluten-free Thanksgiving recipes.

1) Gluten-Free Biscuits

These simple little gluten-free biscuits make a wonderful side dish at your meal. They're a cinch to whip up and have wonderful texture — flaky and buttery. These biscuits are also particularly well suited to being frozen before baking, so you can make them ahead of Thanksgiving and have them ready to bake whenever you need them.

2) Gluten-Free Dinner Rolls

If you have a touch more time to prepare rolls, these high fiber dinner rolls are a great option. High-rising, golden, and buttery, these rolls go well with any meal. The texture resembles a soft dinner roll crossed with a tender biscuit, making them excellent for sopping up gravy, smothering with cranberry sauce, or using for leftover sandwiches!

3) Gluten-Free Cornbread

If rolls and biscuits just aren't really your thing, this cornbread might just be what you're looking for. Our recipe is a bit on the sweet side, but you can feel free to cut back on the sugar if that's more your style. We love the mellow flavor of this recipe; and we're sure it will go well with the array of dishes you plan to serve.

4) Gluten-Free Stuffing and Simple Gravy

What would our Thanksgiving meal be without good old stuffing and gravy? Unfortunately, both are traditionally filled with gluten – which is why we reformulated the classic recipes and made them gluten-free. And the best part? No one will ever be able to tell!

5) Gluten-Free Pie Crust

We've finally unlocked the secret to gluten-free pie crust that rolls and handles like the conventional wheat version. The trick? Gluten-Free Pizza Flour. Gluten-free wheat starch — which makes pizza dough easy to shape and stretch — works incredibly well in pie dough too, yielding a tender crust that’s easy to roll and holds its shape during baking.

6) Gluten-Free Pumpkin Pie

Pumpkin pie is a favorite around here, and our gluten-free version is absolutely sensational. With its flaky gluten-free crust and silky smooth, perfectly sweet filling, we may be a little biased; but we think this beauty should be a staple at everyone's Thanksgiving table.

7) Gluten-Free Pumpkin Cake Bars

Pie not really what you had in mind this Thanksgiving? No problem! These pumpkin cake bars are your winning ticket at the autumn dessert table. They're moist and tender, just as a cake should be; but it's the thick cream cheese frosting that makes them really sparkle!
