Gluten Free Maple Bars

YES!

Gluten Free Maple Bars!

I was craving a maple bar, really the 

only type of donuts I like and which

I have not had in 6 years.

This recipe is interesting as it has no yeast

but the dough ends up frying up like a yeast donut

not a cake one.

It was suggested on the site to eat while warm

but I actually enjoyed them even more 

when they had sat an hour 

and even the next morning.

Disclaimer:

I have not had a donut in 6 years!! 

I may not be the best judge of 

the texture and taste but my son

who has only been GF for a month 

said they were excellent.
