I agree about the GF recipes. They all seem well sort of mechanical or
ya know just strewn together to have a recipe that is gluten free. It
is all basically crap. I have been able to learn how to convert good
recipes into gluten free, with the help of an air fryer.... The air
fryer (I use a power air fryer) has made my cooking so simple and
fast. Granted there is a bit of precooking but I spend several hours
precooking potatoes and I can have any potato dish in under like 7
minutes every day for like 2 weeks. I am talking things like hash
browns, french fries, scalloped potatoes... things of that nature...
mashed potatoes is a different story.
I can also precook my fried chicken dishes such as nuggets, chicken
tacos...

That really helps my GF menus.

as far as baking and breads and such I use the GF corn tortillas.. I
don't really like cakes anymore. I occasionally make a pie where I get
a gluten free pie crust from Trader Joes and can make the hell out of
a pumpkin pie or an apple pie with a caramel (recipe already posted)
swirl. Although I use fresh pumpkin so it is seasonal...

And I appreciate you talking to me as though I am a regular person, it
means a lot.... (getting teary eyed now..)
