Thanks, Deb. The donut recipe looks great - and no eggs, too. I also thought the suggestion for making one's own GF flour mix was interesting. I'm posting it here in case anyone wants to try it:
a ratio of 70 percent grain and/or nut flours (sweet rice, brown rice, cornmeal, sorghum, amaranth, teff, millet, oat, buckwheat or almond) to 30 percent starches (potato starch, arrowroot, cornstarch, tapioca) will yield an all-purpose substitute for wheat flour.

Ooh, thanks Gloria, for picking out that nugget!

And thanks, Deb, for the link. I might be post-baked-goods for the moment, but this article still is heartening for the road ahead. For sure there's never been a better time to go gluten free, as far as resources and awareness go. Here's hoping the picture gets clearer, and all our paths easier.
