Uni,  that looks fab.   Might make some as we have plenty of eggs at the moment.

What about adding 2 small eggs? Would that work?

Obbie is it as easy as adding GF flour to make things GF? Or is there more involved.
Sorry I don't know much about what does or doesn't have Gluten in it.

Dede, I went grocery shopping and bought GF plain flour, GF SR flour, Rice flour, and GF cereal , pasta.

I have just substituted GF flour for normal flour, to see if it helps.
I will know in 2 weeks, after more blood tests for my daughter.

I don't know about that Gert? I would have to get the kids to help :). That would be fun.

My DD and I have had a baking day today - we are trying to perfect Macaroons, which is a challenge :-))  We made two batches of chocolate macaroons today and they taste fine, but she is upset that they have cracked on top.  I think it is my piping skills (actually lack of!) that is maybe the problem, or I am now thinking maybe should not be using fan-forced when cooking them and then they would not rise so quickly and crack.  Also made apple slice, vanilla slice and the filling for Lamb, mint and rosemary pies which are a Donny Hay recipe in today's STM.  Will be making the pies shortly for dinner.

One of the things everyone tells  about macrons is  you must drop them to get the air bubbles out? I dropped mine heavily 6 times and not one cracked. So I think that might be a trick to cracking. Also make sure they have a skin before baking them. Leave at least an hour before baking.

Keep trying as they are worth it.
