Red Velvet Cupcakes

Well I found the recipe for the red velvet cupcakes from the Premium Gold website. I just pulled the first batch out of the oven and they smell so freaking good! 

 

Open Original Shared Link

 

I'm being super lazy and using the cream cheese betty crocker frosting. I typically make my own because I prefer mine to be less sweet but sometimes you gotta go for the shortcuts.

 

I find that I have to find specific recipes for the flour blends I buy because for whatever reason I am not good at adapting recipes, even ones that are already gluten free, to a different flour I have on hand. I understand the xantham gum principles but for whatever reason it never works out for me.

 

I'll be back to let you know how they taste!

YAY!!! That is soooooo comforting to hear!! I love red velvet cupcakes, too! If you like the flour and use it for baking then I know I'm in luck! I'm about to infiltrate your recipe stash for more cupcake recipes with this flour! I found it at Home Goods for 6.99 for a 2lb bag! I see it on Amazon so that is where I will get it if I can't find it again locally.

I'll eat one in your honor. I'm sorry if you haven't been able to eat one since gluten free, right? This is my first red velvet since being gluten free!

Nope, none for months! My supermarket stacks them next to the gluten-free section for some reason... evil! Recently I've been telling myself that there's nothing I *can't* eat because if I wanted it badly enough I'd learn to make it myself. So far this has extended to proper chips, cake type things and extremely rich coconut and mango curries. Healthy gluten free eating phase officially over.

Make cupcakes? I'm a spoiled brat. I buy cupcakes from gluten free bakeries. For me cupcakes are usually a special treat and when I feel entitled to a special treat I don't feel like I should have to make it myself.  B) I usually make other things, mostly bread these days to be perfectly honest. Bread of all sorts, but not sandwich bread. I buy that crap. I've just been having a crappy week and I don't have money to blow on the number of cupcakes I feel like stuffing in my face right now, so making them seems far more sensible. (unless you ask my hips, and no one is asking those fatties)

What?! My nearest bakery is about 40 miles/minutes away. I wish I had the luxury... because the place I go to, Pushkin's in Sacramento, are really really good!

 

I have never tried to make bread... I'm not  a huge bread eater, never have been. 

 

And you should never ask your hips for advice, they never lie. :P

The cupcakes were a complete success! They were moist, not crumbly and had the same mouth feel as a glutiny cupcake. I will definitely keep the recipe and use it again! I took it to a chocolate party at my sisters house and everyone there loved them! And the recipe makes 30.... just sayin!

Thank you! I put the leftovers in the freezer just now. That will also prevent me from eating them all at once! lol

No, it's the mysteries of predictive text.... Also if you type in different languages and forget to change the keyboard... Absolute chaos ensues.... But it's quite funny! We should never lose our sense of humor!

Thought you'd just given moose a new nickname. My predictive text once changed 'I see you... Muhaha' to 'I see you... Mugabe' :|

It is so worth the effort. Also instead of the sour cream I used greek yogurt because that is what I had on hand - totally worked. :)

I agree!  It's so much easier typing on my laptop (like I'm doing now)!  I confess the convenience of the ipad is really nice!  Maybe I should spring for a wireless keyboard for my ipad -- but it's got to be laptop-sized and not one of those tiny keyboards.

 

Sorry, the for confusion!

I like the idea of the wireless laptop pads. They are really neat. 

 

Is it sad that I know it takes a cycle of 7 secs, 5 seconds, and another 5 seconds to thaw out my frozen cupcakes? LOL I may have eaten 2 when I got home from work today. I spent all day in the OR. I earned them. Haha!

So I finally made my cupcakes today. I meant to earlier in the week and it just didn't get done. They are so good. Even more awesome though tbh is the frosting that is listed on the recipe. I could just make that frosting and eat it forever. It is really bakery quality frosting.

Now I have to make it again for the frosting. I ran out of time last weekend. Like I need an excuse? I'm so glad they worked out for you, too! :) :)

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin. In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott. Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?
