  1. Wow, these look so cool Bethany! I love the healthful ingredient list. I purchased some xanthan gum a while back and was meaning to experiment. Is it easy to use? How does it work?

    1. Thank you! Xanthan gum is super easy to use. All you need is a little bit (about 1 teaspoon per cup or two of gf flour) and it helps to make the recipe stick together and turn out better.
