Hello again,
    I am not a baker as mentioned before.  So when I get a great recipe from
a fellow celiac, I love it!  I have been given many helps and recipes over
the years from this list so I thought I'd share these recipes with you.  I
already talked about them, but didn't actually send them.  I've had so many
responses of people wanting them, I thought I would just send it to the list.
 I've included the Gluten-Free Pizza and the Easy Pineapple Cheesecake
recipes from the leaflet I have from Argo and Kingsford Corn Starch.  Plus I
added my pie crust recipe I use from Better Homes and Gardens 10th Edition
(you know, the red and white checked one).  :o)  I hope this is some help.
They are all quick, easy and soooo delicious!   Enjoy!  :o)

Here is the Pizza recipe.

    1 cup rice flour (I use Bette Hagman's mixture)
 1/2 cup Argo or Kingsford's corn starch
    1 teaspoon baking powder
 1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum (I add this, it's not in their recipe, and not
        necessarily needed)
(I also add some seasoning into my crust such as a shake of parsley, oregano,
Parmesan cheese, etc.)
 3/4 cup milk
 1/4 cup Mazola corn oil
 1/3 cup prepared gluten free pizza sauce (I buy a small 8 oz can of tomato
        sauce and add spices such as basil, oregano, garlic powder, black
        pepper or whatever you'd like, stir it up right in the can and use
that)
    1 cup (4 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese (I always use way more than
that)  :o)
       favorite toppings (I add this, it's not in their original recipe)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.  In medium bowl combine rice flour, corn
starch, baking powder, salt, xanthan gum, and spices.  Stir in milk and corn
oil to form a very soft dough.  Spread on cookie sheet to form a 10-inch
circle, 1/4-inch thick.  (I use my Pampered Chef round pizza stone.)  Bake 12
to 14 minutes or until lightly browned around edge.  Remove from oven.
Spread sauce over crust; sprinkle with cheese.  Add pepperoni, sausage, green
peppers, onions, whatever you'd like.  Bake  5 to 7 minutes or until cheese
is bubbly.  Makes 6 servings.


Here is the Easy Pineapple Cheesecake recipe.

    Mazola No stick cooking spray
2   packages (8 oz each) reduced calorie cream cheese, softened
1   cup sugar
1/2 cup milk
3   eggs
1/4 cup Argo or Kingsford's corn starch
2   teaspoons vanilla extract
1   can (8 oz) crushed pineapple in juice, drained, juice reserved
    Cinnamon

Spray 9-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.  In blender combine cream
cheese, sugar, milk, eggs, corn starch, vanilla and reserved pineapple juice.
 Blend 1 minute or until smooth, scraping down sides once.  Pour into
prepared baking dish.  Spoon pineapple evenly over top  (pineapple sinks into
batter).  Sprinkle with cinnamon.  Bake in 300 degree F oven 50-60 minutes or
until set.  Cool on wire rack 1 hour.  Refrigerate.  Makes 12 servings.


And lastly, here's the Pie Crust recipe from Better Homes and Gardens.
Pastry for Single-Crust Pie

1 1/4 cups all purpose flour (I use Bette Hagman's regular mix)
1/4    teaspoon salt
1/3    cup shortening
3 to 4 Tablespoons cold water

In a mixing bowl stir together flour and salt.  Cut in shortening till pieces
are the size of small peas.  Sprinkle 1 Tablespoon of the water over part of
the mixture; gently toss with a fork.  Push to side of bowl.  Repeat till all
is moistened.  Form dough into a ball.  On a lightly floured surface, flatten
dough with hands.  Roll dough from center to edges, forming a circle about 12
inches in diameter.  (Then they talk about rolling it and setting it into the
pie plate.  I'm going to jump in and say this is where we flatten the ball
out in your hands and set in pie plate.  I use the small end of the tart
roller thing from Pampered Chef to roll it up the sides and around.  If you
put damp plastic wrap over it, it smoothes out pretty easily.  You just need
to get it up the sides, you won't have extra for a fancy edge.)  Do not prick
pastry.  Bake as directed in individual recipes.

I then make up pumpkin pie filling from a can of Libby's pumpkin, and fill in
my crust, bake and it's delicious!  :o)

Hope these recipes help!  I know they've helped me!  :o)
