12 Recipes using King Arthur Gluten-Free Flour

Jump to Recipe

These 12 gluten-free baked goods recipes are some of the favorites on my blog and they all use King Arthur Gluten-Free Measure for Measure Flour. This flour makes gluten-free baking so much easier. No need to worry about adding xanthan gum or any weird ingredients. Easy and delicious recipes for cakes, cookies, muffins and quick breads are all on the list.

1. Gluten-Free Coffee Cake Muffins

These gluten-free coffee cake muffins have a rich, moist sour cream cake and a cinnamon crumb with a little crunch. I would have to call this my signature baked goods recipe. My friends and family all know these muffins and are hooked!

2. Sweet, Fluffy Gluten-Free Cornbread

This recipe for gluten-free cornbread is light, fluffy and perfectly sweet. I have had several readers and tasters say that they don’t normally like cornbread but they LOVE this one! I also have a gluten-free, dairy-free cornbread.

3. Gluten-Free Lemon Cake

This gluten-free lemon cake is light, moist and bursting with lemon. The sweet cake with tart lemon is an irresistible combination. Two tall generous layers make for a beautiful cake for any celebration.

4. Gluten-Free Pumpkin Bread

This gluten-free pumpkin bread may be in the form of loaf but it is so light and fluffy, I hesitate to call it bread. The pumpkin spice craze seems to start earlier and earlier every Fall. I try to hold out a little longer than everyone, but when I finally give in, this is the first thing I make is. I am always surprised at how dang good it is.

5. Gluten-Free Sweet Potato Muffins

These moist, cinnamon spiced gluten-free sweet potato muffins are dairy-free, fluffy and have no cane sugar. Sweetened with maple syrup or agave they are perfect for a winter holiday breakfast.

With warm spices and shredded carrot, these gluten-free carrot cake cupcakes are moist, fluffy, delicious and dairy-free! Gluten-free flour mix tips included and several options for making these cupcakes showstoppers!

These gluten-free chocolate cupcakes are light, fluffy and bursting with dark chocolate flavor. They are also dairy-free and so simple to make.

9. Gluten-Free Coconut Cake (Dairy-Free

This gluten-free, dairy-free coconut cake is rich, fluffy and coconutty. This cake is soon to be one of your favorites. It passed my taste test when it became one of my most requested cakes by people gluten-free and not.

10. Gluten-Free Ginger Cupcakes

These gluten-free ginger cupcakes start with a simple base of a vanilla cake recipe and then add plenty of fresh ginger for a light, fluffy, dairy-free cupcake with ZING! With the vanilla cake base these are NOT gingerbread but they will satisfy your ginger craving.

12. Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Banana Bread

This gluten-free banana bread is also dairy-free and one of my favorite recipes. Not only is is moist, light and delicious, but is is so reliable. It always rises perfectly and everyone loves it!

12 Recipes using King Arthur Gluten-Free Flour: Lemon Cake

Yield: 1 8" or 9" 2-layer cake
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes

This gluten-free lemon cake is light, fluffy and bursting with lemon flavor. It is also dairy-free and such a simple, easy recipe. Plus, 11 more recipes that use King Arthur Gluten-Free Flour to try!

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 c gluten-free flour blend* (King Arthur Measure for Measure)
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 c sugar
  • 1 cup dairy-free milk
  • 1 c oil (I prefer sunflower)
  • 4 eggs
  • zest of 2 lemons
  • 1 Tbsp lemon extract
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350° and grease and line 2 round 8 or 9" cake pans.
  2. Zest the lemon and whisk into the oil and milk. Set aside, This will allow time for the lemon zest to give up its flavor to the liquid. I do this the night before I make the cake and store in the fridge.
  3. Whisk the all dry ingredients, except the sugar, together in a large mixing bowl.
  4. An electric mixer is not needed for this recipe. A silicone spatula and whisk are perfect tools.
  5. Beat the sugar with all of the wet ingredients together in a small mixing bowl. Beat until the mixture is pale yellow and creamy.
  6. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until smooth.
  7. Divide the batter evenly between the 2 pans and bake 35-40 minutes for 8" layers and 30-35 minutes for 9" layers or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool the cakes in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then remove them from the pan and finish cooling on a wire rack.
  9. Top with my traditional vanilla buttercream frosting or my cream cheese frosting.

Notes

*If you use a flour blend that does NOT contain xanthan gum, guar gum or inulin (binders), add 1 tsp xanthan gum to the recipe.

The recommended King Arthur Measure for Measure contains binders and is the preferred certified gluten-free flour for this recipe.

Options for gluten-free flour have gotten so much better over the past few years. Maybe you remember when you had to have five different kinds of flour, starches and xanthan gum in your pantry? But now that one for one options are available, that's no longer necessary.

Gluten-free flour can be so expensive but I have shopped around and found the best price for you linked in my blog posts. You'll find my Gluten-Free Vanilla Cake recipe, cookie recipes, banana bread and more.

I haven't had a scone since going gluten-free years ago and they are one of my favorite breakfast bakes. So I went to work on the recipe. Scones are traditionally made with cream but I am lactose-free too. So I subbed in @greenvalleycreamery lactose free sour cream and it is a winner! A little butter, lemonade plus lemon zest and a lemon icing makes these scones lemony & sweet.

I did a little research on gluten-free rainbow sprinkles & included the info in the recipe. Gluten-free is a must for me and plant-based colors are a preference. It's hard to find both in certified gluten-free sprinkles. 
πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰
I've seen a lot of people using  funfetti cake mix as a base for funfetti cookies. The only dry ingredients needed for this recipe are flour, baking powder, salt and sprinkles. A gluten-free box mix costs $6 so I'd rather do it from scratch!
