Beignets, New Orleans donuts. This might be something doable as far as a gluten free donut. Has anyone experimented in this reguard?

I found this recipe on the Delphi forum a while back....haven't tried it but it sounds REALLY good. The gal who posted is French-Canadian, and all of the recipes I checked sounded great, actually. Try this link:

Gladly my dear. Normally such information would cost you a kiss, but since I have learned so much on ths forum, I am in debt to it and must off the information up for free.

Truthfully, I found out about them in this thread. Open Original Shared Link

They are from S'Better farms, which I think is a sort of silly name, but the product is excellent, AND damned expencive. I'm thinking about working up a recipe for corndogs on my own. The price for a box of their chicken nuggets and a box of their corn dogs was 18 dollars. :o:o:o

A personal recipe for these things is going to be a must though, since I love chicken nuggets and corndogs, and this price isn't something I can handle long term. Both were absolutely scrumptious however.

Here is the web page to s'better farms. Open Original Shared Link

Their boxes are kind of plain. (They use boxes, not baggys.)

They have a list of local distributers on their page, and I got them at my local kroger, but be warned, the address for that kroger listed on their web page was off by one number, so if you map to them, I highly recommend checking the address with whatever store you are looking at. It's also worth noting that S'Better farms are super extra kosher, and as such their products were in the jewish freezer section, and NOT the normal freezer, or the healthfood freezer sections. I needed help to find them. No objection to kosher, but I feel mildly slighted that they weren't in the health food section with all the other gluten free stuff.

I also highly recommend their chicken nuggets. Gracious they were good. Maybe I should go cook some more... No, must control self....

Now, I should mention I did NOT use an oven to cook their products, but did in fact boil them in canola oil. (I have a deep frying machine. I figure I shouldn't miss out, and I bought a fry daddy. I highly recommend those as well.) They list microwave, oven, and frying machine cooking directions, so I think this is intended.

Well, corndogs won't get you a kiss, but a beignet....a GOOD beignet definitely might.... :)

Here is a recipe that was posted in February:

I made these a few weeks ago, they were GOOD!!

1 cup gluten-free flour mix

2/3 cup cornmeal

2 Tbsp sugar

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

2 Tbsp shortening

1 egg

3/4 cup milk

1 pound hotdogs

cooking oil

Combine flour mix, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, xanthan, salt and mustard in a bowl. Cut in shortening till mixture resembles fine crumbs.

Beat egg and milk in a separate bowl. Add to dry ingredients.

Dry hot dogs with a paper towel and cut into 1 inch long pieces.

Coat hot dog pieces well with batter and deep fry in hot oil (375 F) till golden brown.

Oh, you are young and your brain didn't get fried from Celiac, did it....I don't read complicated books any more, was relegated to celebrity gossip magazines and the newspaper in the last few years....will pick up books again, hopefully, when I can remember plotlines... :unsure:

I have a gluten free home in Louisiana and my daughter requested beignets. She was thrilled with them but I am going to continue to tweak my approach. The way I did it was to add a little extra sugar to my favorite and best performing biscuit dough. Then I deep fried them in a fry-daddy and dusted them with powdered sugar. They were very tasty and similar to 'real' beignets, though they didn't puff up as much as the ones you can get at the cafes.

Around here, non-Celiacs make beignets at home by cutting up canned biscuit dough, but there are other traditional beignet recipes that include yeast and my next experiment will be with a yeast dough to see if I can get extra puff.

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
