Gluten Free Play Dough Recipe


I found this great recipe for gluten free playdough from about.com here.

"Here is a recipe for gluten-free play dough, courtesy of the Celiac Sprue Association. (Regular Play Doh, the popular children's modeling compound, contains gluten, which makes it unsafe for children with celiac disease.)
If you'd rather buy ready-made gluten-free play dough, two popular brands are Aroma Dough and Colorations. Colorations is sold by Discount School Supply.
Recipe reprinted with permission of the Celiac Sprue Association.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 3 minutes

Total Time: 8 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup rice flour
  • 1/2 cup corn starch
  • 1/2 cup salt
  • 2 tsp cream of tarter
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tsp cooking oil
  • Food coloring, if desired

Preparation:

Mix ingredients. Cook and stir on low heat for 3 minutes or until mixture forms a ball. Cool completely before storing in a sealable plastic bag.
Someone had this good tip. "We used Arrowroot starch because our corn starch said may contain wheat and milk and eggs, all allergies for us, going to toss it. The Arrowroot starch worked great and I'm sure Potato Starch would also work". "
Check your corn starch label or use these great subs!
