Gluten Free Play Dough
"In a Gluten-free household store bought Play Dough is such a risky thing to have around, especially when toddlers are involved. This recipe is safe, very easy, and so much fun to make too! If you are used to Gluten-free baking, you will probably have all the ingredients in the house already ;-)
The Gluten free Play Dough looks and handles just like 'normal' Play Dough, so kids won't notice the difference. It keeps well for months when stored in an airtight container.
This recipe was found at Coeliac UK."

Love to cook and bake, always have. Our toddler DD is gluten and lactose intolerant and mom just can't stomach the idea that a lifelong gluten free or dairy free diet would simply mean settling for less. Finding yummy recipes that work therefor make me very happy, and ever so grateful for a site like this!!!
