I just tried the gluten free pantry chocolate truffle brownie mix and it was really good. It is gluten-free and Dairy free, you just add eggs, tasted just like real brownies. Can I expect the same from all GLuten Free pantry items?

This is my families favorite. I just bought their pie crust mix, but have not tried it yet. But these brownies are awesome. Our friends' also love them. I take them when I go to a potluck.

Those brownies are so good. I love making them for dessert when we have people over the house cause I can eat them too!!! They love it.

I thought these were absolutely fantastic. BUT there was an issue with them that we had to stop getting them, and it was the potential for cross contamination with nuts!!!

--------------EMAIL RECIEVED FROM COMPANY--------

Thank you for contacting us.

I am sorry that I cannot recommend our products as there is a slight chance of cross contamination. We do use tree nut products on the same line and I cannot guarentee that our raw ingredients are 100% free of peanuts and tre nuts.

SO, I'll put a plug in for the "Ooey Gooey Chocolatey Chewy" brownies from The Cravings Place We like them more cake-like so we use soymilk instead of water!

I just made these last week and was going to post about how yummy they are. THey taste just like the real thing. They do get dry faster then a normal browny, but I made them last Thursday and I am still eating the crumbs.

I've tried a bunch of the gluten free pantry stuff - the brownies are amazing, the pie crust is great but a little crumbly, but who cares? The ginger spice cake is awesome, I added shredded carrots, and walnuts and frosted it with cream cheese frosting. I also made chocolate chip muffins with the muffin mix and they were awesome too! Its a great line of products!!!

I am glad that everyone seems to like their products! I am excited now about trying them all! Does anyone have any issues with cc with these products? (gluten and casein when it says Gluten-free Casein-free)

I don't know. I tried their bread baking mix and it just didn't work. Brownie Mixes are pretty simple though, a bunch of cocoa and sugar, xanthan gum, leavening and some alternative flour, so i dont think brownies should be the meter for quality. Bobs red mill bronwies are really amazing, too. I think pamela's has one too. anyway.

I love these brownies, not only b/c they are AMAZING but b/c they are what convinced my family that gluten free stuff is edible. Seriously, before i found these, my family absolutely refused to eat anything I ate (by family i mean my parents, and i dont live with them, so its not that big of an issue). My mother would make Spaghetti bolognese and make two different kinds of pasta, etc. We made these brownies at xmas dinner, and everyone devoured them- no one touched the expensive, gourmet decadent chocolate hazelnut torte b/c the gluten-free brownies were so damn good! Since that experience, my family has been so much more willing to try gluten-free products.

No issue of cc for me, but i havent had them since that time so i may not be the best judge :)

I love their bread mix, but haven't tried doing it by hand. I do it in a bread machine and I make a few changes. I warm my eggs for 20 seconds in the microwave once I have already beat them with a fork for a few seconds. Then I also add the yeast pack to the warm water before putting all the liquid ingredients in the bread maker and then pour the dry mix on top. I also scrape the sides with a spatula for a few seconds at the beginning of the cycle. This works great!

Although, sadly, I'm off grains now, I loved their brownie mix, pie crust mix, gingerbread spice cake mix, cornbread mix, cake and cookie mix--really never was dissapointed in anything by them. I tend to be very sensitive, and had no CC issues with their stuff at all.

Here's an idea for you.....when you make these brownies, pour a serious amount of Junior Mints over the brownies right after they come out of the oven and just leave it. They will adhere to your brownies and create the "frosting". I took these to an event a church recently and people were coming up to me to ask for my "recipe". Do not spread the Junior Mints around, just leave them. I call this "Ana's Junior Mint Brownies" after my granddaugher Ana, who has celiac disease, but I love them as much as anyone could.

Hey, I can't have casein either, so I understand where you are coming from, but I've found that they don't actually have casin in them. It specificially says milk and eggs may be present, but I feel safe eating them as they do not actually have milk in the ingrediants. Good luck! (:

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant b...

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that...

      Brain fog

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Thanks to those who have replied.  To Cristina, my symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell. To Trents, We didn’t do any of the construction but did visit the job site quite often.  While getting the old house ready we stirred up a lot of dust and I’m sure mold but haven’t been back there for over a month.

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.
