Tips for Gluten-Free Brownie Baking

  • Measure flour accurately. Too much gluten-free flour can affect the texture of brownies, so weighing it is a reliable approach.

  • Avoid overbaking: Brownies continue to set as they cool, so don’t wait until a toothpick comes out completely clean. The best way to tell they’re done is when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, but no wet batter.

  • Follow the recipe’s cooling instructions. Brownies often need time to set before slicing, particularly when they have a soft, fudgy texture. Use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between cuts for neater slices.
  • Check packaged ingredients. Make sure all packaged ingredients you use are labeled gluten-free or verified by the manufacturer. 
  • Shop my favorite gluten-free products and baking essentials in my Amazon Store.
