Tom Sawyer Flour


nursestherapies

Recommended Posts

I am new to this website but have been gluten-free for 6 years. Not up on the latest information, I bake my own breads but haven't really found satisfaction with my recipe results.

I saw the ad here for Tom Sawyer Flour- that it can be used for any recipe that calls for wheat flour. Does anyone have experience with it?

Thanks, Karen

nope, never even heard of it. I use Orgrans All purpose flour, and they have a self rising flour as well, I use this just as I would have used wheat flour in a recipe.

Thanks for responding. Where do you get Orgrans? Karen

I think the Tom Saywer flour is new, because I ran accrross an article last week about the new product.

Post any other information you find about it or how well it works.

Does it work just in any old non-gluten-free recipe? LIke Cake, cookies, etc? I get awful tired trying to remeber which of 5 dozen different flours I will need to buy when I am at WIld Oats! Be nice ot have a baiscly universal mix... worth paying a little more for jstu some storage space back! :huh:

LOL, sorry Vincent... I lose track of which threads I've posted on and don't always recheck them!

To answer the question yes, I use it the same in recipes 1:1 as regular flour, if I can't find the Orgran one in the store, I get The Gluten Free Pantry's All Purpose Flour Mix, it also works just as well, it's just a little more expensive than Orgran.

      Thanks so much Scott. I would be incredibly grateful to the gluten gods if eliminating oats was the magic cure. In the meantime, it's nice to have moral support!

      Understood. And don't beat yourself up about this. Many are in the same boat as you, having experimented with the gluten-free diet before getting formerly tested. It is a logical, common sense approach when you don't have the knowledge about how testing works or you don't have the healthcare resources to afford testing. And some experience such severe reactions to gluten that it is impossible to get through the gluten challenge in order to get tested. So, they must live with the ambiguity of not knowing for sure if they suffer from celiac disease or NCGS. But at the end of the day, the antidote is the same for both. Namely, life-ling abstinence from gluten. Recently there was an article on posted on this forum about the develop of a new testing method for diagnosing celiac disease that do not require a gluten challenge. It is still in the developmental stage and probably years away from becoming main streams even if it pans out. But there is hope at least.

      Ooh thanks for all the info I'll check them out, though I may not be functional after 6 slices for 6 weeks 😅

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
