    Shipman House Gluten-Free Coffee Cake (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    4 egg whites -- whip till stiff, but not dry
    4 egg yolks -- beat till light and creamy
    1 cup sugar beat in to yolks

    Add to yolk mix:
    1 cup potato or rice flour
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    1-½ tablespoon vanilla

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    Topping:
    ½ cup brown sugar
    ½ teaspoon cinnamon
    ½ teaspoon cocoa
    ½ cup rice flour
    ¼ cup chopped nuts
    3 tablespoons butter

    Fold egg whites into the batter. For topping, blend softened butter with sugar, nuts, cinnamon, flour, cocoa. Bake in greased and floured 9-inch round pan. 325 for 20 minutes, then 350 for 15 minutes.

    Version #2:

    In a classic mother-daughter moment, I wanted to make the coffee cake for my mom over thanksgiving. She had to help, and then tinkered with the recipe a bit, so this is what Ive now ended up with ... the blend of flours really makes a difference and I think the extra egg-and-a-half [?] has made it more moist.

    Traceys Variation on the Shipman Coffee Cake:
    5 egg whites -- whip silly
    5 egg yolks + 1 total egg -- beat till light and creamy
    1 cup sugar -- beat in to yolks

    Add to yolk mix:
    ½ cup Lentil bean flour [from Indian grocer]
    ½ cup rice flour
    1/8 teaspoons salt
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    1-½ tablespoon vanilla
    splash of Baileys *

    Topping:
    3 tablespoons butter, melted impatiently in a skillet
    ½ cup sugar
    a whole bunch of cinnamon
    ½ cup rice flour
    1 cup chopped nuts

    Fold egg whites into the batter**. For topping, blend softened butter with sugar, nuts, cinnamon, flour cocoa. Bake in greased and floured 9-inch round pan. 325 for 20 minutes, then 350 for 15 minutes.

    *Yes, I did call Baileys and they assured me their Baileys + Cream is totally gluten-free
    ** mom would like it known that folding egg whites into batter is a lost art form. Impatience does not work here, or else youll poof all the air out the egg whites. Shes convinced that if you take the time and do it right, young lady that the coffee cake will poof to well over 4 inches. With the kitchen gods on her side, her patient folding resulted in a nearly 5 inch tall coffee cake that spilled over and trashed her brand new oven. [size does matter ]
    *** for leftovers -- if any -- wrap in wax paper, then a Ziploc baggie to keep in moistness. Enjoy!

    This is the worst recipe I have ever tasted. I have been gluten free for almost five years, and even I can tell that this is not good food! We followed the instructions exactly and it was so dry that you couldn't ever possibly call it batter.

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    This recipe comes to us from Kaye Worthington. It is from an Australian magazine called The Australian Womens Weekly. When making them, you must remember that Australians use metric measurements e.g. 1 cup = 250 ml, etc. Also, with sponge cakes, eggs should be at room temperature, not straight from the fridge.
    Corn flour Sponge
    4 eggs
    ½ cup castor sugar
    1 cup corn flour
    Lightly grease a deep 23 cm round cake pan. Beat eggs in a bowl with electric mixer for about 7 minutes or until thick and creamy. Gradually add sugar, beating well after each addition. Sift corn flour three times, then sift corn flour over egg mixture. Gently fold flour into egg mixture. Spread mixture evenly into prepared pan, bake in moderate oven (180c) for about 40 minutes or until cooked ...

    This is a deliciously different fruit cake, packed with glace fruit, dried fruit and nuts and is delicious and easy to bake wheat/gluten free! I have had loads of comments about this cake from my American friends who dont believe any fruit cake can be delicious - but they have all agreed this one IS DELICIOUS!!! I use it as an English Christmas cake and decorate it with marzipan and icing, but my family love it also as is and eat it sliced any time of the year.

    Celiac.com 01/15/2010 - King Cakes are used to select Mardi Gras Kings and Queens as well as to celebrate the season in households and at parties across the country. King Cakes have many looks, the most classic being a crown shaped pastry dotted with the sugared colors of Carnival: purple, gold and green.  Some have fillings, others do not, though they all house a hidden trinket like a plastic (formerly porcelain) baby.
    The trinket hidden inside each cake adds to its popularity, although the uninitiated often fail to recognize that finding the trinket inside your piece of cake may come not only with privileges (good fortune and/or becoming the King or Queen of the ball) but just as often with responsibilities (bringing the next cake!). 
    Make sure the next person to bring a King C...

      Feeling ill

      Welcome to the forum! Keep in mind that if you quit eating gluten before all testing is done, you may have inaccurate, possibly false negative, test results. When you stop eating gluten, your body stops making the antibodies which are measured in the blood tests. Stopping gluten before an endoscopy may make the intestinal damage harder to detect, and...

      fed up italian

      Your feelings are completely valid, and I want to commend you for advocating for yourself despite the initial resistance from your doctor. Navigating a new celiac diagnosis can feel overwhelming, especially when you're adjusting to such a big lifestyle change. It’s natural to grieve the loss of your old eating habits and to feel frustrated by the constant l...

      Feeling ill

      Welcome to the forum, @Whyz! By "half way to being diagnosed" I assume you mean you have had the blood antibody testing done but not the gastroscopy with biopsy. Is this correct? Were the results of your blood work positive for celiac disease?

      My 5 months of Struggle

      Three days of no gluten is not likely to have much impact on serum antibody test results. I have more concern over exactly what test or tests were ordered. When you get the results back, please post them including the reference ranges for the tests for negative vs. positive. What country are you in? Do you have much choice in what doctors you see? Sounds...
