I bought one at a health food store that was awesome! I will post the brand when I get home from work :)

I use kinninnik (sp) pancake/waffle mix. I swear by it!! It makes better pancakes then the ones i used to eat prior to DX. Now everyone in my house has them too.

my absolute favorite is 1-2-3 Gluten Free Buckwheat Pancake mix... My daughter and I both LOVE it! Pamela's mix comes in a close second, and then The Gluten Free Pantry's mix... I haven't tried Kinnikkinick's mix yet, but I'm sure it's awesome!

I can't use many of the pre-mix stuff so this is the recipe that I just tried w/my dd that I found on another site..

1 egg (or sub - I used 1 1/2T water, 1 1/2T oil, 1 tsp. baking powder mixed)

1 c. gluten-free flour blend

3/4 c. liquid (I used Vance's Dari Free)

1/Tbsp. sugar

2 Tbsp oil

1 Tbsp baking powder

dash salt

Mix and cook as usual.

I froze the leftovers for later by putting wax paper in between them.

Arrowhead Mills Pancake mix is awesome. I also really like Lifestream buckwheat waffles (you can find them in the frozen section of some health food type stores).

I like the Pamela's mix. It's the only I've tried other than Van's frozen and that didn't go well. I even like the Pamela's pancakes as a bread substitute. Seems like they use almond flour and so they have a slightly nutty taste. Not quite like "regular" glutened pancakes, but yummy.

We really like the Bob's gluten-free Pancake Mix. It's just like buttermilk pancakes and they bake up nice and fluffy! I tried them first and we've liked them so much, I haven't bothered to try any others.

Pamela's mix is good and alot love it! Me too, until I tried the Mona's pancake mix---- it is the fluffiest, lightest I ever tasted. I hated pancakes in my wheat era but I love these now!!!!!

Mona also has a good cake mix.

We use Pamela's and can get it at Whole Food's. But we also love the Kinnikinnick mix and get that whenever we place an online order. Both are great.

i use elpeto pancake mix for my waffles, it's great.

btw, for any waffles/pancakes, substitute the oil, 1 to 1, with applesauce if you want to cut out some calories and fat. cooking time willl lengthen a bit, and if you're using a waffle maker be sure to spray the surface with some cooking oil before making the waffle. i cut out 17g of fat and 100 calories per 8" waffle doing this..

I love the Pamela's Pancake and Baking Mix! Light, airy, fluffy pancakes from heaven!! The mix does have dairy in it though which might be a problem for some.

I haven't really tried any other pancake mixes, other than Arrowhead Mills, which was a thumbs down for me. The result was very hard and dense pancakes, but maybe I was doing something wrong. I always seem to have a problem with Arrowhead Mills gluten free products, maybe cross contamination? Their labels always say, "Wheat Free, Made with Non-Gluten Ingredients", so I don't know if I can completely trust that.

When I was first diagnosed, I tried two brands that were nasty, so when I found the Bob's Red Mill mix I just quit looking. So yummy. I replace the oil with flax meal, and up the milk a little bit. It makes them slightly less fluffy, but still very good, and I figure it's worth it for the fiber and omega-3s.

My husband (who's not gluten-free) is picky, so I was quite surprised that he decided, after a number of tries, that he was happy with Namaste pancake mix, so that's what we use if we're both having pacakes or waffles. I'll use a number of different recipes if I'm making stuff on my own.

My absolute favorite gluten-free, CF, and Egg Free pancakes are from The Cravings Place Open Original Shared Link try their other mixes too, they are yummy and so easy

BTW: I have no interest in this company except for them staying in business so I can eat their stuff!!!!

I've been trying to come up with a good recipe using rice flour, egg replacer(or nothing), and soy milk but nothing other than that mix comes out right!

      @SamAlvi, It's common with anemia to have a lower tTg IgA antibodies than DGP IgG ones, but your high DGP IgG scores still point to Celiac disease.   Since a gluten challenge would pose further health damage, you may want to ask for a DNA test to see if you have any of the commonly known genes for Celiac disease.  Though having the genes for Celiac is not diagnostic in and of itself, taken with the antibody tests, the anemia and your reaction to gluten, it may be a confirmation you have Celiac disease.   Do discuss Gastrointestinal Beriberi with your doctors.  In Celiac disease, Gastrointestinal Beriberi is frequently overlooked by doctors.  The digestive system can be affected by localized Thiamine deficiency which causes symptoms consistent with yours.  Correction of nutritional deficiencies quickly is beneficial.  Benfotiamine, a form of thiamine, helps improve intestinal health.  All eight B vitamins, including Thiamine (Benfotiamine), should be supplemented because they all work together.   The B vitamins are needed in addition to iron to correct anemia.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Currently, there are no tests for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out and we do have testing for celiac disease. There are two primary test modalities for diagnosing celiac disease. One involves checking for antibodies in the blood. For the person with celiac disease, when gluten is ingested, it produces an autoimmune response in the lining of the small bowel which generates specific kinds of antibodies. Some people are IGA deficient and such that the IGA antibody tests done for celiac disease will have skewed results and cannot be trusted. In that case, there are IGG tests that can be ordered though, they aren't quite as specific for celiac disease as the IGA tests. But the possibility of IGA deficiency is why a "total IGA" test should always be ordered along with the TTG-IGA. The other modality is an endoscopy (scoping of the upper GI track) with a biopsy of the small bowel lining. The aforementioned autoimmune response produces inflammation in the small bowel lining which, over time, damages the structure of the lining. The biopsy is sent to a lab and microscopically analyzed for signs of this damage. If the damage is severe enough, it can often be spotted during the scoping itself. The endoscopy/biopsy is used as confirmation when the antibody results are positive, since there is a small chance that elevated antibody test scores can be caused by things other than celiac disease, particularly when the antibody test numbers are not particularly high. If the antibody test numbers are 10x normal or higher, physicians will sometimes declare an official diagnosis of celiac disease without an endoscopy/biopsy, particularly in the U.K. Some practitioners use stool tests to detect celiac disease but this modality is not widely recognized in the medical community as valid. Both celiac testing modalities outlined above require that you have been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks/months ahead of time. Many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even reducing their gluten intake prior to testing. By doing so, they invalidate the testing because antibodies stop being produced, disappear from the blood and the lining of the small bowel begins to heal. So, then they are stuck in no man's land, wondering if they have celiac disease or NCGS. To resume gluten consumption, i.e., to undertake a "gluten challenge" is out of the question because their reaction to gluten is so strong that it would endanger their health. The lining of the small bowel is the place where all of the nutrition in the food we consume is absorbed. This lining is made up of billions of microscopically tiny fingerlike projections that create a tremendous nutrient absorption surface area. The inflammation caused by celiac disease wears down these fingers and greatly reduces the surface area needed for nutrient absorption. Thus, people with celiac disease often develop iron deficiency anemia and a host of other vitamin and mineral deficiencies. It is likely that many more people who have issues with gluten suffer from NCGS than from celiac disease. We actually know much more about the mechanism of celiac disease than we do about NCGS but some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease.

      Thank you for the clarification and for taking the time to explain the terminology so clearly. I really appreciate your insight, especially the distinction between celiac disease and NCGS and how anemia can point more toward celiac. This was very helpful for me.

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?
