Now, with my all-purpose gluten-free baking mix and the 16 included recipes (2 on the box, 14 inside), you’ll whip up baked goods every bit as good as those with wheat — biscuits, pancakes, muffins, tarts, crepes, cupcakes,...

This morning, I served my family hot skillet corn bread with butter, honey, and pie cherry jam. And I just finished making about 50 three-inch corn cakes that I’ll keep warm in a serving tray for a potluck in town later this morning. Since I’m making so many round cakes, I chose my oven method. From my first batch, I crowned one with butter, drizzled honey all over it, and declared, perfection! Puffed and golden, they look gorgeous along with the bouquet of daffodils I gathered this morning.... Read more.

This quick and easy bread adds a touch of gourmet to any meal. Made with rye flour and caraway seeds, it’s a classic flavor that pairs well with Parmesan cheese. For a quick late-night snack, I add water and create a ball of dough. Then, I wet my fingers and spread the dough out into a cast-iron skillet that I’ve coated with a bit of olive oil. I turn the heat on low and add a lid. Just before I flip it, I add more olive oil to the top. After it turns a golden brown, I sprinkle on a topping of... Read more.

This was one of my first backcountry food inventions. This bread mix comes in a tall zip-lock bag. You add water and knead the bag with your hands until it’s thoroughly mixed. Next, you cut off a corner of the bag and squeeze small dollops of bread into a hot skillet. It’s easy and quick. Picture yourself next to a lake taking in the smell of hot bread, garlic and basil. Eating these warm little breads is heavenly. Back home, you can use my stovetop skillet-bake instructions or make a BakeOver... Read more.

In the 70s when I roamed the Uintas Mountain Range as a Wilderness Ranger, one of my responsibilities was to make sure sheepherders didn’t keep their herds in one place too long. Since I was alone a lot, I always enjoyed crossing paths with a sheepherder or two. They were Basque and didn’t speak much English, so we had a language barrier. Food, then, was our common ground. I was always invited to dinner. Coffee was truly a “cup of mud,” and the bread they made was wondrous. I’ve attempted to... Read more.

Moister, chewier, more delicious and easier to make than any brownie mix you’ve ever found. This recipe took me months to perfect. I think I used up five pounds of chocolate getting it just right. Campers tell me this is their favorite social dessert. Be the one that shows up with the “best of trip” treat. If it’s been a while since you’ve experienced the perfect dessert, then sit down to some brownies and a glass of milk. You can use my stovetop skillet-bake instructions, my oven-bake... Read more.
