Instructions

Vanilla Bean Cupcakes

    2. In a medium bowl mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

    3. In a medium bowl with a stand mixer or hand mixer cream together butter and sugar and beat until combined and very fluffy, about three minutes. Add the eggs and beat until incorporated, then the vanilla extract.

    4. With the mixer on its lowest speed slowly add flour mixture and buttermilk. Increase the speed and mix until combine and fluffy.

    5. Slice each vanilla bean length wise and scrape out the paste. Add vanilla beans to batter and mix well.

    6. Fill muffin tins about 3/4 of the way full.

    7. Bake for 20-22 minutes, until fluffy and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool on a cooling rack.

    8. Once cool use a sharp knife or a spoon to cut a circle/hole into the center of the cupcake to create a little pocket about 1/2 inch deep. Spoon 1 teaspoon of strawberry preserves inside and top with the piece of cupcake you removed to seal. Repeat with all cupcakes, then frost with Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting.

Liz Satkowski Gluten Free Mom Colorado

I’m a busy mom of four who believes that living gluten-free should never mean giving up the foods you love. Whether you’re navigating celiac disease, gluten sensitivity, or simply looking for delicious family-friendly recipes, my goal is to make gluten-free cooking easy, approachable, and full of flavor.

Here you’ll find everything from high-protein breakfasts and macro-friendly meals to comforting dinners, decadent desserts, and simple snacks the whole family will actually eat. Every recipe is created with real life in mind using easy-to-find ingredients, simple instructions, and plenty of options for customization.

Gluten Free Mom’s Table was built from my own family’s journey with celiac disease. I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel to find recipes that are both safe and satisfying. That’s why every recipe I share is designed to help take the stress out of gluten-free living while bringing everyone together around the table.

Whether you’re meal prepping for the week, looking for healthier family meals, creating protein-packed recipes to help you reach your nutrition goals, or simply searching for a gluten-free dessert that tastes like the original, you’ll find plenty of inspiration here.

My mission is simple: to prove that gluten-free food can be just as comforting, delicious, and memorable as any traditional recipe. Because food is more than just nourishment. It’s about creating memories, celebrating milestones, and gathering with the people you love.

Thank you for being part of the Gluten Free Mom’s Table community. I can’t wait to cook with you!
