Want To Find/create Recipe

I'm addicted to an energy bar baked fresh by a local organic grocer/bakery. I don't think they would share their recipe, but I pay $6.99 per pound. :o So I buy the smallest 'bar' and divide them into tiny pieces. Yet the ingredients don't seem that difficult to combine. I'm just not sure of the proportions. They contain: cashew butter, sesame seeds (toasted), rice bran, chopped date pieces and maple syrup. I have ALL those ingredients in my pantry. I'm thinking that the cashew butter, rice bran and maple syrup are the 'base' to which I can add other seeds, nuts and finely diced dates or other dried fruit. Maybe I can even substitute another nut butter. DOES ANYONE HAVE A RECIPE FOR ANY BAKED OR UNBAKED NUT BUTTER BAR WHICH CONTAINS SIMILAR INGREDIENTS? I sure would like to make or bake my own variety of those sesame/cashew butter energy bars to save money, if not calories. :lol:

I'm not sure if this is exactly what you're after, but I had a go at making my own 'raw' (unbaked) 'Organic Food Bar' (like the ones on sale under than very name). I just bought most of the same ingredients and had a go at it! Here's what I used:

1 cup almond butter

1.5 cups flax seed meal

1/4 cup cocoa

1/2 cup agave nectar

125g (one small tub) blueberries

1/4 cup water

I then just mixed everything together really well, laid it on a foil-lined tray and stuck it in the fridge. The texture was a bit messy, but it tasted GREAT - incredibly similar to the organic food bar (although they are more chewy and these were softer).

Anyway, I suppose if you just mix the ingredients together and let them 'set' you should do alright. :)

Thanks. That was gutsy, yet gooey ... but I LIKE gooey! :P I considered just trying the ingredients in small batches until I got the right proportions for the desired texture and taste. Thanks for giving me an idea of how much nut butter, how much sweetner, how much grain (I'd use rice bran rather than flax meal) and how much of the other ingredients. Has anyone else seen a baked energy bar recipe or even an unbaked recipe for anything else similar to my nut butter, seeds, date pieces, maple syrup ingredients?

      @Celiacpartner, I agree with Scott. We have a food festival yearly in the town I live in, with artisan food stalls everywhere. I spoke to the owner of one of the artisan burger stalls, enquiring if the burgers were gluten-free when I said I was Coeliac ... he said he had a serious anaphylactic allergy to fish himself. He possibly carries an epi-pen or two everywhere he goes. I would go see an allergist as soon as possible as suggested.
    • Scott Adams
      After years of stable management, developing new symptoms to historically safe foods like nuts and fish strongly suggests a secondary issue has developed. It is highly unlikely to be a new gluten issue if the foods themselves are certified gluten-free. The most probable explanations are a new, separate food intolerance (perhaps to a specific protein in certain nuts or fish) or a true IgE-mediated food allergy, which can develop at any age. The symptoms you describe—cramps and the urge to vomit—can be consistent with either. It is crucial he sees an allergist for proper testing (like a skin prick or blood test) to identify the specific culprit and rule out a serious allergy, as reactions can sometimes worsen with repeated exposure.

      Nuts are a common source of food allergy reaction/intolerance/sensitivity. But fish usually not. Of course, intolerances can develop to any food, whether or not they are common ones. I'm at a loss here.

      Your doctor's recommendation to wait three months is very sound and aligns with general advice for celiac disease. While the acute GI symptoms resolve quickly, the autoimmune response and intestinal inflammation can linger, impairing nutrient absorption crucial for early fetal development. This three-month window allows your body to calm the immune response and for your gut to fully heal, ensuring you are in the best possible nutritional health for conception and pregnancy. In the meantime, focus on hydrating, eating nourishing, easily digestible foods, and resting—your body needs time to recover. It's a frustrating delay, but it's the best step for a healthy pregnancy.

      He’s noticed it after having a few different kinds of nuts and nuts on top of a gluten free nut bar. and it’s happened after having some fresh caught fish, and tonight from packaged plain salmon from the supermarket. He has stomach cramps and feels the need to vomit to try and relieve the symptoms.
