INGREDIENTS
2 cups hot mashed potatoes
2 cups white sugar
1 cup milk
2 tbs. butter
½ tsp salt
1 – 3 cups gluten free flour mix (enough to make a soft dough)
DIRECTIONS
In a large, deep frying pan mix 2 tbs white vinegar with enough cold canola oil to fill pan 2/3 full.
In a large bowl, mix together potatoes, sugar, milk, butter and salt.
Mix well.
Gradually add flour mix until you get a soft dough.
Roll the dough out onto a floured board to about an inch thick and cut with doughnut cutter. (you can also use a large, round cookie cutter and cut the centers with a shot glass)
Heat the oil to medium-high.
Once the oil is hot, place the rings in carefully. Flip them over with a fork once they are browned.
They are wonderful just like that but you can sprinkle them with sugar as well if you wish.
VARIATIONS
Use half milk and half sour cream.
Add ¼ cup blueberries.
Add ¼ cup raisins and ½ tsp cinnamon.

The beginnings of this company are like so many other Gluten Free companies, we are a labor of love. In 1984 when I was a senior in college my father was diagnosed with Celiac Sprue. Unfortunately he was diagnosed with Lymphoma at the same time. Then there was no clear link between my father’s cancer and Celiac Sprue. Now of course we know differently, he got the cancer because he had Celiac Sprue and was not on a gluten free/ wheat free diet. Back then there were so few foods available, and forget about going to a restaurant. He would try to order and explain what he couldn’t have and the waiter would look at him like he was crazy.
When my son Maxwell was 6 years old and experiencing stomach pain after every meal we had him tested for Celiac Sprue (because of the family history) and the diagnosis came back positive. It was then that with the help of my family I founded Maxwell’s Kitchen to provide great tasting alternatives for the Gluten free/Wheat free market. When you see a Maxwell’s Kitchen product on the store shelf or online or in a restaurant you can be sure that it is safe for anyone that is on the Gluten free/Wheat free diet, because it was made for people that I love very much, and I hope that you enjoy our products and join our Gluten free/Wheat free family.
