Walkers Shortbread Cookies now Gluten Free
One of my favorite things while traveling with Porter is their snack lounge! They always have Walkers Shortbread and lots of teas and coffees available for their travelers. This crumbly buttery cookie is perfect for a snack with a hot beverage and just filling enough to satisfy you.
I have known and loved this for a LONG time and was thrilled to find out that they now have GLUTEN FREE versions! Probably one of the oldest snacks around, this is an awesome ‘reinvention’ while tasting 100% the same!
The Walkers story begins in 1898 when the twenty-one year old Joseph Walker opened the doors of his own bakery with a loan of £50 and the ambition to make the finest shortbread in the world.
In the first year of business, Joseph used every spare moment to perfect his shortbread recipe. It was time well spent. Soon, shooting parties from the local estates were making detours just to visit Joseph’s bakery.
As word spread and demand for his quality shortbread increased, Joseph took the first steps to expanding the business by moving to a larger shop in the Speyside village of Aberlour and investing in a horse and cart to deliver his baking further afield.
Now the Gluten Free comes in 3 versions and I tried them all. My favorite is the Ginger and Lemon Shortbread. Not only does it have the buttery crumbly texture, it also had bits of candied ginger enveloped in a hint on lemon goodness. I highly recommend that you give these new flavors a try and see if they compare to the original!
Gluten Free Pure Butter Shortbread: our classic pure butter shortbread offers a crumbly “melt-in-your-mouth” texture. • Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Shortbread: A generous helping of chocolate chips provides a rich and luxurious complement to this classic shortbread. • Gluten Free Ginger & Lemon Shortbread: This crumbly shortbread combines the best of traditional Scottish baking with the exotic tang of Stem Ginger and Lemon. Walkers Gluten Free range is baked with only the finest quality ingredients combined with the company’s world class craftsmanship. This ensures that no compromise is made enabling all gluten intolerant consumers the chance to enjoy the same great tasting pure butter shortbread as expected in every pack of Walkers Shortbread.

Delicious and Gluten Free Treats from Rudi’s Organic Bakery
Rudi’s Organic Bakery has a ton of gluten free breads! I used their Ciabatta Rolls to make these tiny chicken sandwiches for lunch with a side for coconut oil fried plantains! These buns are crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Ready in just 8 mins in the oven and a really easy quick hot lunch.
These are revolutionary!! The Rudi’s Gluten Free Cherry Almond bars taste like… Cheesecake. OMG They are delicious and healthy and obviously got eaten up really really fast. These moist and chewy delights are baked up right, with real, whole ingredients, 3 grams of protein and 2 grams of filling fiber to keep you going strong all day long.
Rudi’s also has a range of sandwich breads that are gluten free! They come in cinnamon, multi grain and original. I love it toasted with butter or grilled as a panini. Rudi’s have worked with the bread to make it just like normal bread but better! Gluten-Free goodness that’s softer, fluffier, and yummier than ever. We’ve rethought, reworked, and remade all of our Gluten-Free Sandwich Breads because we believe taste is everything.
