bettergoods Gluten Free Gingerbread Muffin Mix Carton, 15.6 oz

I tweak this box mix to make a loaf. I use browned butter, instead of the oil it calls for. I use applesauce instead of the water. I also add orange zest and a good amount of ginger and/or pumpkin pie spice. I also add 1 egg yolk to the 2 eggs it calls for. Don't forget a dash of almond extract. Dense, rich and delish! You can also make cookies from this EASILY! Just use the mix, 2 eggs and 1/2 cup of browned butter OR Almond oil. Again, I add more spice, orange, nuts, almond extract... I live at a higher altitude, so I also add a splash of water OR bourbon ;) Place balls/scoops onto parchment lined pan, bake at 350 for about 6 to 10 minutes, depending on how soft you like your cookies. Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring.

When Williams Sonoma couldn't fulfill my order of their gluten free gingerbread quick bread mix, I went looking for alternatives. Who would have guessed that Walmart would be my hero? I wouldn't say they were identical in flavor, but this mix is very tasty, has the cake-like texture I was looking for, and at a tiny fraction of the price. Plus, you only need to add two eggs and some oil.
