El Faro Gluten Free Flour – Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Customer Review! 

• “I am not a ‘natural’ baker or cook but an amateur trying out El Faro All-Purpose Flour for the first – but not the last – time!  Other gluten-free flours have all kinds of different requirements, need various substances and are quite intimidating.  El Faro is fantastic! It doesn’t need any additions and it’s a ‘1 to 1’ equivalent for all-purpose flour recipes. My family recipe for Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies turned out just great!”

Secret El Faro Flour Scone Recipe!

From desserts to scones to fish & chips, El Faro’s Flour Blend forms the foundation of all of the baking at El Faro Fusion’s 100% gluten-free restaurant. Now we can enjoy their artisan mix in our own kitchens!

“From hard times come small gifts. In the spring of 2019 we formulated our gluten-free flour and then sidelined the project. During Covid we couldn’t find our favourite gluten-free flour and everything we tried just didn’t measure up to our expectations in creating our favourite baked goods.”

“We pulled out the formula we created and made our favourite scones with it. We nailed it!! The quality, taste and texture were beyond our wildest dreams for anything gluten free. We then shared it with our valued customers and friends for feedback and their overwhelming positive feedback and encouragement led us to you!! We are so excited for you to try our flour for all of your baking adventures!”

“We would love to hear from you. Please feel free to share your baking adventures with us at elfarofusion@yahoo.com“
