Anyone Found A Recipe That Compares To Kinnikinnick Eng. Muffins?

I'm spending $15 a week on Kinnikinnick english muffins. I love them - they are the closest thing I've found to the taste and texture of french bread and they don't have an enormous amount of fat in them (I have trouble digesting fat). I've tried several recipes and mixes but nothing compares to the deliciousness that is those english muffins!

Does anyone have a good recipe? It doesn't have to be for english muffins, but for some sort of bread or biscuit without 8 million grams of fat (which disqualifies the recipe for me :( )

Thanks!

I know Bette Hagman has an English muffin recipe but I haven't tried it. My favorite bread is her 4-flour bread, the sesame seed variation is especially yummy. Do you have her bread book? It's great.

Yes, I have her book. I've tried the french bread and a few other recipes. They aren't bad, but they don't taste similar enough for me to switch from my beloved english muffins.

Her english muffin recipe calls for 1/4 c. of nut butter. That much would KILL me! <_<

Thanks :)

Yoiks, that is a lot of nut butter!

I'm not crazy about the french bread recipe so don't give up if that's all you've tried. French bread is THE hardest bread to fake since it's basically nothing but wheat, water & yeast. In my experience the best gluten-free breads have other flavors to compensate for the lack of wheat.

I haven't even tried those Kinnikinnick muffins... now I think I'll pick some up!

Leah

Have you tried making some of the recipes but just cutting the fat a little? I often do that just because so many recipes seem needlessly fatty... haven't tried it with her breads, but you might try the trick of adding some pureed fruit to add "mouthfeel"-- if you can tolerate fruit.

Thanks Leah! I'll definitely keep trying. I can tolerate fruit purees - I usually cut out the oil or butter and use unsweetened applesauce, which usually works well except the bread then has no flavor. I will definitely try her 4 flour bread. :D

Hm, a good question. I know that the Gluten Free Pantry has a good french bread and pizza mix. I've never tried it for this, but I bet you could make it into english muffins. If I knew how to make them I would give it a shot :) That would be nicer than buying the expensive kind!

Roben Ryberg has a buttermilk bread recipe in her book The Gluten Free Kitchen that is very good, and similar to my tastebuds to Kinnikinnick's English muffins (thouigh baked in loaf form--but you could slice and toast it). I'll be happy to PM it to you if you like (don't know if I'm allowed to post it here). Her recipes use ONLY potato starch and cornstarch, which is interesting--no rice flour.

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      By thejayland10 · Posted

      Hello,  I have seen numerous doctors and they can't seem to pin point why my ttg iga is still mildly elevated at 16-20 even after being gluten free for over 10 years. I follow a very strict diet and don't eat out. All my other blood tests such as ema, DGP IGA / IGG, vitamin levels, CBC, and dexa scan were normal.

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By mermaidluver22 · Posted

      @Scott Adams Thank you so much for this thoughtful and encouraging reply 💛 It really helps me feel less alone navigating all of this! I’ve definitely been strict gluten-free, but I’ll admit — in the beginning, I honestly knew nothing about cross-contamination 😅 so it’s very possible my gut is still healing from that. I feel very abnormal because I am not a typical celiac or a typical Crohn's, so it makes me feel very stuck.

      Help needed

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi still the same unfortunately, they had to cancel my colonoscopy due to my trapped nerve , I'm awaiting some kind of scan , it was the nurses who  told me to refuse and asked a docter , and I was told to cancel and go back to my consultant , I think because my sciatic nerve is compressed between my herniated discs , the prep was enough I could handle , but the colonoscopy itself , they advised me to seek something different ,due to the position I had to be in and the movements , so I will update Wen I know more , thankyou for asking appreciated 🤗

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you're navigating a complex situation with your celiac disease, and it’s understandable to feel confused by the GI world! While celiac disease typically affects the duodenum and proximal small intestine, it’s possible for inflammation to extend to the ileum, especially in cases of more severe or longstanding damage. Since your tTG-IgA remains elevated despite a strict gluten-free diet, this could indicate ongoing healing or subtle gluten exposure. The ileal inflammation might still be related to celiac, though it’s good your doctor is ruling out other conditions like Crohn’s, given the nonspecific biopsy findings. Some people with celiac do report ileal involvement, particularly if they have refractory disease or delayed healing. Keeping close follow-up with your GI and possibly revisiting your diet for hidden gluten sources could help. Hang in there—it’s a journey, and you’re doing great by staying proactive!
