I have played around with various ingredients for the past 7 years since my daughter was confirmed as Celiac.  I have found the best all round flour substitute for baking and cooking is......

Cup4Cup.   Far and away the best results and I have tried them all. 

Thanks for mentioning it.  I don't have Celiac but I see that it's 30 Cal. per 3 tbsp. where typical Bread Flour is 85 Cal per 3 tbsp, so I may give it a whirl anyway for things where the rising power of gluten isn't important, like in pizza dough, where I use 1.5 cups (24 tbsp) of a mixture of 50% Bread Flour and 50% Whole Wheat Flour for a 12" pizza.  That's 440 Cal more than 1.5 cups of Cup4Cup.

The downside is price.  At least in Canada.  $15 for 3 lbs.
