Roll up, roll up! I’m delighted to share with you: my ULTIMATE cheat’s gluten free trifle recipe. I promise you that it’s so easy to make that you’ll almost feel like you’re cheating when you’re making it!
You just can’t beat a good trifle can you? But you can eat a good trifle – especially when it’s gluten free! See what I did there? Ok sorry – let’s talk about my gluten free trifle recipe…
It’s pretty sad to say, but I haven’t had a trifle in YEARS. Like, I don’t even remember the last time… probably when M&S used to sell a gluten free trifle, actually!
(don’t rush over there, I’m 99.9% sure it was discontinued yeeeeears ago!)
And you know what? The gluten free trifle shortage ends now! And I’m just gonna let you know now that you have two options here:
- Make this trifle and share it with your muggle friends/family because nobody would EVER know that this is gluten free.
- Let everyone else eat their inferior shop-bought trifle whilst you enjoy this absolute beast for days on end because ‘gluten free food isn’t as good as normal food’ ?
The choice is yours!
So what’s my gluten free trifle like?
Well, the bottom layer are gluten free madeleines and fresh raspberries in a set strawberry jelly. Then you’ve got a layer sliced strawberries to hide the fact that I love an unbelievably thick custard layer ?
(when I was a kid, I used to steal extra custard when serving up my bowl… then everyone else used to complain about the lack of custard! oops!)
Last but not least is whipped double cream and more freshly sliced strawberries. Simple, but so, so, so good!
Believe it or not, I used to pick all of the fruit out the jelly when I was a kid… did anyone else used to do that?! I certainly don’t now!
Also, I can’t emphasise just how easy it is to pull off my gluten free trifle recipe – hence why I’ve nicknamed it the ‘cheater’s’ trifle!
In the past, I’ve made a trifle by making my own custard from scratch, cooking down berries and adding gelatine to make my own homemade jelly, baking my gluten free Madeira for the sponge… AND IT TOOK HOURS.
(if there’s any trifle purists out there, let me know if you want that recipe too!)
So for this recipe, I decided that… that is probably the reason I haven’t had a trifle in so many years!! Don’t get me wrong, it’s sometimes great to create a trifle completely from scratch, but sometimes… you just want to eat a trifle ASAP!
That’s why I made this using jelly from a block, gluten free madeleines from the free from aisle and shop-bought custard. Honestly, you can make this in no time! So here’s how to do it…
Here's my ULTIMATE cheat's gluten free trifle recipe which makes a speedy trifle ASAP! It's super-duper easy to make at home and everyone will love it.
