Egg-replacers For Namaste Mixes

I've tried the Blondies with an egg replacer and applesauce. They tasted good but the texture was off some.

Does anyone have a Namaste Mix that they love that works really well with a replacer? :)

Thanks!

I have not tried to replace the eggs in any of the mixes, but aren't these just the BEST!!!!

I made the muffins yesterday morning but instead of a cup of water, I used 2 mashed bananas and "about" 1/2 cup water, plus added 3/4 cup chocolate chips. My 10yo was crazy over them "mom these are the BEST muffins EVER, can you make them for my class.....blah blah blah". I also made the brownies last week and subsituted an individual sized applesauce for half the oil. They turned out so good, chewy, moist, like a "real" brownie, even DH, who isn't altogether happy about the new gluten free baking (misses his "old cookies and brownies") seems happy about the Namaste mixes so far. I will be ordering those in bulk!!!

(I am not baking unless I can eat it, which is why he is unhappy, But I am slowly finding things that come close to the old ways.)

Hmmm.. I'll have to go check them out... do they have rice flour in them?

I haven't used this mix either but my favorite egg replacer is 1 1/2T water, 1 1/2T oil, 1 tsp. baking powder for each egg. Have you tried that?

I've also used the waffle mix but I didn't get the results I wanted with those without the eggs. I did like the flavor of the blondies. My co-op is running a special on these mixes by the case and I thought about trying some other things.

From what I can tell most of the mixes do have rice. They're good for those of us who are cooking without soy, dairy etc. Thanks for the replacement suggestion. I'll try that next time. I had been using Ener-G egg replacer with water and applesauce.

I just bought a Namaste Brownie mix, but when I got home I discovered you need to add a CUP of oil...yikes! I'm wondering if I could use something like applesauce for part of the oil. A cup is a horrendous amount of oil for something like that. Any ideas?

I halved the oil and replaced it with a small indivdual size of applesauce (somewhere between 1/4-1/3 cup). They were fine, yummmy!!!! and as good as "normal" brownies, and I have tried SEVERAL different mixes, so far these are the hands down winner in my house.

This is a great idea. When I made the Blondies they we're VERY oily.

Thanks, I think I'll give the brownies a try! :)

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
