I haven't done a whole lot of the baking recipes in Heather's cookbook. The rule of thumb for xanthan gum though is 1 tsp per cup of flour for lighter baked goods, like cookies and cakes, and 2 tsp per cup for breads.
Mostly I bake out of gluten free cookbooks/online blogs and substitute as necessary to make things more IBS friendly. Seems to be easier to work with recipes that are already formulated for gluten free baking, and then to just sub applesauce or cocoa powder for fattening ingredients, etc.

I use a sorghum flour mix which I really enjoy. Here are the measurements:
1 ½ c sorghum flour
1 ½ c potato starch or cornstarch
1 c tapioca starch

Best of luck to you!
