Hi Laura. I use xanthan gum quite a bit, often in 1-4 serving sized recipes. I don't worry about the exact amount in baked goods. If there's a tad extra, it won't make much difference. In sauces or gravies, I just start with a tiny bit, and either adjust as it thickens, or combine thickeners (heavy cream, pureed vegetables, etc.)

If you have any specific recipes, maybe we can help convert them.
