Betty Crocker gluten-free Brownies....

Recommended Posts

....absolutely ROCK! They came out tasting better than any brownie mix I ever made in my non gluten-free days. They were slightly chewy with a nice soft inside, and very chocolately...just the way I like them. 

 

AND, they are made in a dedicated gluten-free facility! Woo hooo!!!

In a taste test among nationally available brownie mixes, gluten and gluten free, it was the winner. I still haven't bought one because it's just too expensive for my taste and I can buy a perfectly delicious mix for half the price or just make brownies with little fuss. But one day if I find it on sale I'll try it.

And as an added bonus, you can rest assured, the Gluten Free Watchdog just tested this product and it was <5ppm.

Glad you finally tried them.  See what you've been missing all this time?  :D  When I made them for the first time I thought....ok....This makes the whole Celiac thing soooooooooo worth it.  :)

This looks dangerous. lol

I read the comments--and I agree about adding some sour cream.

My friend with the G F bakery uses sour cream in all baked goods and it truly makes a difference in the moist factor.

Someone---can you make these--and report back?  ^_^  I am not indulging right now, but I can live vicariously through others.

I shall indulge for you but I need to finish up the blueberry muffins.  There does need to be breaks in between indulgences  :lol:

 

Sour Cream Rocks  :D

Not crazy Rookie

Their brownies are the best. I've made them and gluten eaters had no idea they were gluten free. Had a cheese cake with the brownie used as the crust. Their yellow cake mix makes a to die for (adult only) armetto cake. I've also used it to make kind of an apple spice cake and topped it cream cheese frosting. Don't care to much for plain yellow cake ( kind of dry).

Have several potluck events a year so have to get creative for desserts to take.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
