Gluten-free baking can be tricky. Using a store-bought gluten-free flour blend can make things easier than if you try to develop your own blend, but even so, it’s not as simple as substituting all-purpose flour for a gluten-free variety. Many other ingredients used in baking contain gluten, and gluten-free flours react differently with the other ingredients in a recipe. But don’t despair! There are plenty of tips and tricks that can help you master the basics of gluten-free baking.

1. Wash your hands before you begin, and make sure you avoid contaminating gluten-free items with ingredients containing gluten if you are baking in a kitchen that isn’t gluten-free.

2. As with regular baking, make sure you have all ingredients before baking, and bring eggs, milks, and butter to room temperature for proper mixing.
