Had some success and some failure baking this weekend although I don't think it was because things were gluten free. I tried this apple cake recipe and it turned out very weird. It had to be with the melted butter because it had lots of tiny holes and it was very crispy, which I think is typical when you make something with melted butter. I was very unhappy because as it cooled it started to meld itself to my cast iron skillet and I had to hurry and chip it off. It currently lives as an apple cake pile in my fridge. Tastes good though. I subbed in 6:3:1 ratio of sorghum flour, potato starch, tapioca starch.

I knew it had to be the melted butter because I made this recipe right after with pears and it turned out amazing. They are basically the same recipe. Same ratio of flours.

Btw, I converted them by saying 1 cup ap flour = 4.25 oz and then multiplying that by the ratios to get my flours. No gums used. I also made a crustless squash pie because I had squash and it is delicious :)
