Frequently Asked Questions

Does bow tie pasta have gluten?

If you buy regular wheat pasta it will contain gluten. For this recipe I used Jovial Gluten Free Farfalle (farfalle is also known as bow tie pasta). Their gluten free pasta is made from brown rice and is certified to be gluten free.

Is farfalle the same as bow tie pasta?

Yes. In Italian farfalle means butterflies. We tend to call farfalle pasta bow tie pasta in the United States because of its shape.

Notes

Be sure to use certified gluten free Worcestershire sauce in this recipe. Standard Worcestershire sauce is not gluten free as it typically contains malt vinegar which is made from barley. Always check the label carefully and look for a product that is specifically labeled certified gluten free. Lea and Perrins is one of the most widely available brands and their Worcestershire sauce is considered gluten free in the United States, but always verify the label on the bottle you purchase to be sure.

Storage

Store leftover gluten free cowboy baked beans in a sealed airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 5 days. These beans reheat beautifully and the flavor gets even better the next day as the sauce continues to develop overnight. Reheat on the stovetop over medium low heat stirring occasionally until warmed through, or microwave individual portions in a covered bowl. These cowboy baked beans also freeze well. Store in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

Top Tip

Do not drain the pork and beans before adding them to the dutch oven. The liquid in the can is part of what creates the rich and saucy base for these cowboy baked beans. All of the other canned beans should be drained and rinsed as the recipe calls for, but keeping the pork and beans liquid in the pot adds flavor and helps the sauce come together beautifully during baking. If you drain all four cans of beans the finished dish will be too thick and dry rather than saucy and rich.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are cowboy baked beans?

Cowboy baked beans are a hearty and flavor packed version of classic baked beans that are loaded with meat, typically ground beef and bacon, along with multiple types of beans and a rich smoky BBQ sauce. Unlike traditional baked beans which are usually served as a simple side dish, cowboy beans are substantial enough to serve as a complete main course. The combination of sweet, smoky, and tangy flavors from the BBQ sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and mustard is what makes them so irresistible.

Can I make these cowboy baked beans ahead of time?

Absolutely and I actually recommend it! These beans taste even better the next day after the flavors have had more time to develop and meld together overnight in the refrigerator. You can assemble the entire dish and bake it a day ahead, then reheat it covered in a 350 degree oven for about 20 minutes before serving. They are also a great make ahead option for summer cookouts and potlucks since they travel well and reheat beautifully.

Can I make these cowboy baked beans in a slow cooker?

Yes! To make these in a slow cooker, brown the ground beef and cook the onion and garlic on the stovetop first, then transfer everything to your slow cooker and add all of the remaining ingredients. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours. The slow cooker version is a great option for summer entertaining because it keeps the beans warm throughout the party without heating up your kitchen.

What kind of BBQ sauce should I use for this recipe?

Any BBQ sauce you enjoy works well in this recipe. Just make sure to check the label and use a certified gluten free BBQ sauce as many store bought versions contain gluten. A smoky or hickory flavored BBQ sauce gives the beans the most classic cowboy flavor but a sweet BBQ sauce works beautifully too. If you prefer a spicier version look for a chipotle or spicy BBQ sauce for an extra kick.

Can I make this recipe without ground beef?

Yes! If you want to make a meatless version you can omit the ground beef entirely and the beans will still be hearty and delicious thanks to the bacon and the four types of beans. You can also substitute ground turkey or ground chicken for the beef if you prefer a lighter option. The cooking time and method remain the same regardless of which protein you choose.

Can I use different types of beans in this recipe?

Absolutely. The four bean combination of butter beans, navy beans, kidney beans, and pork and beans is what gives these cowboy beans their hearty texture and variety but you can easily swap in whatever canned beans you have on hand. Great northern beans, black beans, or cannellini beans all work well as substitutes. Just remember to drain and rinse all of the canned beans except for the pork and beans, which should go in with their liquid for the best sauce consistency.

Gluten Free Lemon Curd

This lemon curd is a classic, easy dessert recipe that delivers bright citrus flavor with a smooth, creamy texture. Made with simple techniques and cooked gently on the stovetop, it comes together quickly and feels both timeless and indulgent.

The result is a thick, silky lemon curd that balances sweet and tangy perfectly, making it one of the best easy lemon curd recipes to master at home.

Perfect for cakes, pies, tarts, or spooning straight from the jar, this homemade lemon curd is incredibly versatile and naturally gluten free. It works beautifully as a filling, topping, or dessert component and adds a fresh pop of lemon to any sweet treat.

Whether you're learning how to make homemade lemon curd for the first time or looking for a reliable, classic recipe, this version is simple, foolproof, and always delicious.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is lemon curd made from?

Gluten free lemon curd is simply eggs, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest and butter. I like to use farm fresh eggs to get a deeper color, but any eggs will work.

How do you make lemon curd?

You whisk together the eggs and sugar and then add the lemon juice and lemon zest. Mix these ingredients together in your metal mixer bowl.

Then place your mixing bowl over a pot of simmering water. Stir the mixture until it begins to thicken. Then add the butter in a small cube at a time. Continue stirring until the butter is all melted and you have a creamy mixture.

How long will lemon curd keep?

It will keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator for a little over a week. If you find you need to use up your lemon curd it is great on toast, pancakes or waffles. It's also a great filling for thumbprint cookies.

Can I freeze lemon curd?

Yes! You can freeze gluten free lemon curd for up to one year in a freezer safe container. When you want to thaw it remove it from the freezer and place in your refrigerator to thaw.

[feast_advanced_jump_to]

Ingredients

Instructions

Wash your potatoes in cold water.

Place the rack in your instant pot, pour 1 cup water into the bottom of the pot and place the potatoes inside. Seal the lid, making sure the steam valve is closed. On the manual setting cook the potatoes for 12 minutes. Let the steam release naturally and then take the lid off the instant pot and let the potatoes cool slightly.

If you don't have an instant pot boil the potatoes in a large pot on your stove top until they are tender. You can test them with a fork or knife to make sure they are cooked all the way through.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Once your potatoes are cool enough to work with place them on a baking sheet. Using a potato masher or fork smash the potatoes until they are approximately ¼ inch thick. 

Place small pieces of butter on each potato. This is for flavor and not meant to grease the pan.

Divide the garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper between all the potatoes.

Pour the olive oil between the potatoes so they don't stick to the pan.

Place your baking sheet in your oven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.

After 40 minutes change your oven setting to high broil. Watch the potatoes closely as they will get brown and get crispy quickly! Take the potatoes out when they have reached your desired crispiness. I like mine a dark golden brown on top.

If the potatoes seem a little dry mist or pour a little more olive oil over top of them. 

I like to serve these smashed potatoes while they are still hot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between smashed potatoes and mashed potatoes?

Both smashed potatoes and mashed potatoes are made from cooked potatoes, but how they are prepared is very different. For smashed potatoes you smash them into about a ¼ inch thick patty on a baking sheet. For mashed potatoes you mash them until they are all combined together in a pot.

The flavor of smashed potatoes is different because they are roasted in the oven after being cooked. I think it gives them a sweeter, richer flavor.

What should I serve with smashed potatoes?

I like to serve these smashed potatoes with roast or steaks along with green beans. They are a perfect side dish for dinner or lunch. I'm a fan of having a smashed potato on its own for lunch. They are a great carb to serve with your meat and veggies.

Gluten Free Scotch Eggs with Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce

This easy recipe for oven baked gluten free scotch eggs with honey mustard dipping sauce is made with boiled eggs, sausage and gluten free bread crumbs. The scotch eggs are delicious on their own, but the special sauce makes them even better. I used turkey sausage for mine, but you could also use pork sausage for a rich treat.

For the recipe I split one pound of sausage into five equal sections. Then, I flatten the section in my hand as evenly as possible. I wrap the sausage around the boiled egg (with the shell removed) and make sure the entire outside of the egg is coated.

Next in a small bowl I have one egg that is beaten. I roll the sausage coated egg in the beaten egg and then roll it in the gluten free bread crumbs. Place the final product on a baking sheet or in a baking dish and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. The outside will be browned and the sausage will be completely cooked when the scotch egg is done.

Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

In a small bowl mix the gluten free bread crumbs, salt and pepper.

In another small bowl lightly beat the egg for rolling the scotch eggs in.

Divide the pound of ground sausage into five portions. Take a portion and flatten it out evenly in your hand. Wrap the sausage patty around the egg until the entire surface of the egg is covered.

Roll the sausage wrapped egg in the beaten and egg and then the crumb mixture. Place on a baking sheet. Repeat this step four more times. Be sure to leave room between each egg so they cook evenly.

Bake the scotch eggs at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. The eggs will be browned and the juice around them will be clear or slightly browned when they are done.

While the scotch eggs are baking make the honey mustard dipping sauce. In a bowl or jar add the mayonnaise, mustard and honey. Using a whisk or immersion blender blend the ingredients together until smooth and combined. Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator.

Let the scotch eggs cool slightly and then remove them from the baking sheet with a turner.

Serve them immediately warm with the dipping sauce or refrigerate them for at least 2 hours and serve cold with the dipping sauce.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is a Scotch egg called a Scotch egg?

Mincing meat is also known as scotching. This recipe is made of eggs coated in minced or scotched meat, rolled in egg and then gluten free bread crumbs. Traditionally the recipe uses pork sausage, but I used turkey sausage for mine.

Do I eat my scotch eggs hot or cold?

This is really based on personal preference. I love to eat these gluten free scotch eggs hot, but traditionally scotch eggs are picnic or pub food and are served cold. I like to eat one warm right after I make them and then wrap the rest in tinfoil and have them cold the next day for breakfast.
