I followed the Kellog recipe using Erewhon Rice Crisps. my kids didn't think to ask until the pan was empty!!

3 tablespoons margarine or butter

1 package (10 oz., about 40) marshmallows

or

4 cups miniature marshmallows

6 cups rice cereal

Melt margarine and marshmallows in pan. Add rice cereal and stir quickly to coat.

Pour into greased 9x13 pan and pat down.

I'll make them gluten-free so I can eat them too

If you can't have butter or margarine, try coconut oil. It's available at health food stores.

Does coconut oil have a flavor? I'm not a big fan of coconut flavor. I would consider almond though. Either would be great twists on the flavor!

I've been using coccoa pebbles, just because they are a lot cheaper than the specialty cereals.

Different grades of the coconut oil have different tastes. If I remember right the spectrum brand brand didn't taste like coconut.

I just bought some Envirokids Koala Krisp last night and I was thining that would make yummy chocolatey "rice crispy" treats. I don't think Envirokids cereals are unreasonably priced, either.

Are all marshmallows gluten free?

Thanks!

My dd is casein free/gluten-free and I've made rice crispy treats with coconut oil. My dh doesn't like coconut either but I use coconut oil/butter all the time and he can't tell it's coconut. I usually use Spectrum, Refined coconut oil.

I've not tried this substitution with the treats, but you probably could use Spectrum Organic Shortening. (Made from palm oil, not palm kernel oil.)

We use Kraft Jet-Puff Marshmallows. I've also made homemade marshmallows which is soooo fun! :lol:

OOOOO How??? Love to try that :)

I learned the hard way: use the miniature marshmallows. The big ones take forever to melt. The small ones are so much faster and easier!

IronedOut Apprentice

If you have the large ones already, just cut them into smaller pieces. I have leftovers from camping trips that would go stale otherwise.

I've been off the forum for a fews days...sorry this has taken so long to post!

I use the homemade marshmallow recipe from Martha Stewart.

The mixture starts out as nothing and fluffs up to marshmallow creme. One time I didn't have corn syrup so I used vegetable glycerin and it worked fine as well.

You could use this recipe to make marshmallow chicks or hearts for the holidays. :)

You've got to try this recipe because it's so easy and fun. :lol:

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.
    • trents
      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.
