Easy Play Dough

Hi, I just finished experimenting and have a recipe for easy gluten free play dough that isn't too sticky or crumbly. I thought I would share it here. It is an adaptation of a recipe I found here a couple of years ago when my daughter was first diagnosed.

https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/22445-flippin-playdoughgrrr-i-need-help/

This is a simplified version. 

Hope it helps!

 

Gluten free play dough

 

 

In a large mixing bowl place:

 

½ cup gluten free cornflour (corn starch)

½ cup rice flour

½ cup salt

2 teaspoons cream of tartar (gluten-free)

1 teaspoon of oil

 

Add food colouring to 1 cup of boiling water then add water to bowl and mix until it makes a smooth paste.

 

Leave until mix cools to room temperature or just above. (20-30 mins)

 

Add:

½ cup rice flour

½ cup gluten free corn flour and mix/knead until combined.

 

At this stage the dough is usually still a little sticky so add a little more cornflour as needed.

 

Voila! Beautiful gluten free play dough.

 

I find that using fine salt gives the nicest texture.

 

This play dough tends to get stickier over time rather than dry out, so sometimes I add a little bit of cornflour at the beginning of a play dough session if needed.

Thanks for sharing! My 1 year old is in the process of being diagnosed and he loves play dough so this is great to know about!

Ok I see the salt but is that what you are supposed to add the water to?

      I've not heard of the DNA test I will definitely look into that. And I did not know that the neuropathy was symptoms of vitamin deficiency. I have been trying to get on a good vitamin regimen. Thank you!

      My GI Doctor took blood work and said my Iron levels were actually high. But they took my blood a couple weeks after my infusion so I'm thinking that's why they were showing so high, but they knew I had the infusions. The infusions did help greatly but I am also on an Iron pill that I can instantly notice if I have not taken it for a few days.  Yes, I have read up on that! Thank you so much! I sure that will be fun! Hahaha

      @shadycharacter, did you mean to reply to another post about sourdough bread? The present thread isn't about that.

      Thanks for your response. It seems to be only with gluten, illness, or vaccination.

      Welcome to the forum, @LimpToeTheTimeless Bone growth plates close in the late teens to early twenties, so it's doubtful you'll grow much taller, but you may start to bulk up in muscle.  Remember to boost your absorption of vitamins and minerals needed to build muscle by eating a nutritionally dense diet and supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals, especially Thiamine B1, to counteract the malabsorption caused by Celiac Disease. Keep us posted on your progress!
