Fall Gluten Free Events in Greater Sacramento Area

I wanted to provide everyone with a list of gluten free happening around Sacramento for the fall season.

Classes

WholeFoods-Arden Fair

Sept 6 All about Gluten Free Flours w/Joann Mitchell

Eating gluten free (GF) is more popular as people find they are sensitive or allergic to gluten, or have Celiac Disease. We're also hearing about what gluten does to those with no apparent allergy. This class will introduce you to gluten free flours, their characteristics, which are better for baking, cooking, and more. A great class to start with if you're interested in our other GF classes! Open to all ages. Whole Foods Arden Fair

WholeFoods- Roseville

Sept 2 Cooking with Hemp Seed

Discover the amazing health benefits of a diet with Hemp seed! Lot's of beneficial information and healthy samples!

Davis Food Co-Op

Sept 16, 18, 30 Alphabetical Vegetables

D is for dandelion greens, E is for eggplant and F is for fennel. Think kids don’t like those veggies? You’d be surprised! All recipes will be gluten free.

Oct 6 Intro to Gluten Free Flours

The hard part of gluten free cooking is learning the whys & wherefores of the flour. This class is a prerequisite to our GF Baking classes.

Oct 23 Gluten-Free

There’s a sudden wealth of gluten-free foods available. Find out which are delicious to you in this tasting.

Oct 8 Gluten Free Cakes & Quick Breads

Add a few gluten-free cakes and quick breads to your repertoire, and you’ll be well prepared to bake for birthdays, graduations, or afternoon tea.

Oct 13 Gluten Free Pie Crusts

Truly, pie crusts needn’t be scary--even gluten-free pie crusts. We’ll show you how to get perfect results from several gluten-free crust recipes in this hands-on class where everyone takes home a pie crust.

Oct 15 Gluten Free Donuts

Delicious donuts are easier to make than you may think. We’ll learn about baked donuts, fried donuts, baking powder raised donuts and yeast raised donuts. After this, you’ll be armed and ready for lazy weekend mornings of dunking.

Nov 12 Gluten-Free Holiday Recipes

What to do if you can’t eat the rolls, pie crusts, or stuffings at traditional holiday dinners? Come learn to make delicious gluten-free versions!
