I don't have a crust recipe, but... I normally make mine crustless. They're lower cal/fat that way and I think they're much yummier.

I haven't tried it but the pie crust from the Gluten Free Pantry seems to be a favorite on here.

I tried the gluten-free Pantry Pie Crust and was thinking that it would be a good crust for a quiche. I haven't ventured into recipes and am just trying mixes right now, so I don't have any advice on recipes.

A bag of shredded simply potatoes topped with a stick of butter is a really good crust. Put the potatoes in a deep dish, cover with melted butter and bake for 20 nminutes. Then add egg mixture and bake until done.

I always thought that quiche was better without the crust. :)

I use my old pie crust recipe, with a few modifications. No one complains about the taste at all and it has a good texture - just not quite as flaky as with poison white wheat flour. I've made chicken pot pie, berry pies and apple pie with it, as well as just sprinkling cinnamon sugar on and baking it flat. I'm sure it would work for quiche.

Crust for one 9" pie shell:

1 C gluten-free flour mix*

1/4 tsp xanthan gum

1/2 tsp Ener-G Egg Replacer (can leave this out)

1/2 C Butter

1/4 C VERY cold water

Sift flour, xanthan gum and egg replacer together. Cut butter into flour with pastry cutter until it resembles coarse sand. Add cold water and stir well until it forms a ball. It might be a little sticky. You might want to refrigerate it at this point for 10-15 minutes. Roll out onto a well-floured board. Very carefully pick up and put into pie pan.

*I use 3 C brown rice flour, 1 C potato starch, 1/2 C tapioca starch and 2-1/2 tsp xanthan gum, sifted together 3 times. Store in the refrigerator.

If I make a crustless quiche can I just pour the egg mmixture into greased large muffin tins?

:) Hi my name is Kris. I just made a quiche for dinner yesterday and I used the Gluten Free Pantry Quick Mix. Take 2 cups of the mix and 3/4 cup water. Mix together and spread in a greased pie plate, then brush with mustard. Before my husband was diagnosed I used to make the crust with Bisquick. He said it tasted great and he couldn't tell the difference. Give it a try!

I had a quiche that was made with sliced potatoes as a crust. It was pretty good. I'm not too crazy about quiche anyway though.

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I’m so sorry you’re going through this—it sounds like your body is sending a clear signal that gluten is a major trigger for your Hashimoto’s. The dramatic spike in your anti-TPO (from 50 to 799!) and the severe symptoms you’re experiencing suggest a strong immune reaction, even if celiac testing wasn’t done earlier. While a formal diagnosis would clarify cross-contamination risks, continuing the challenge may not be worth the damage to your thyroid and quality of life, especially since you already know gluten worsens your antibodies and symptoms. If you need answers, you could discuss genetic testing (HLA-DQ2/DQ8 genes) with your doctor—this can rule out celiac predisposition without a gluten challenge. For now, prioritizing your health by quitting gluten again (strictly, given your sensitivity) and supporting gut healing (like probiotics, L-glutamine, or zinc carnosine) might be the wisest path. Your thyroid will thank you!

      tTg at 234 at 6 month bloodwork

      Well then, I'd say he's making excellent progress. It can take some time for antibody numbers to normalize. Even though new antibodies are no longer being produced, it takes a while for the old ones to be disposed of. Make sure you keep an eye on the alkaline phosphatase levels. It is probably true that is tied to his adolescent growth spurt but it's worth tracking. Thirteen years of elevated liver enzymes was what eventually led to my celiac disease diagnosis. But I was 50 years old by that time and it was my ALT and AST that were mildly elevated all that time, not my alk phos. I just found out last week from an ultrasound that my liver is 20% larger than normal and I'm hoping that is a legacy effect. I have more testing lined up.

      Hi. Sorry, his previous levels were >250 and we do not know how high they were. So yes, "off the chart". By 'detectable' I just meant that at 234 we now actually have a number as a baseline that we can measure future labs against. All his other liver test functions have been normal.  Just the elevated ALP. Thank you.

      Welcome to the forum, @CeliacMom79! Not sure what you mean when you say you are pleased that his ttg levels are now at "detectable levels"? Earlier in your narrative you said they were originally above 250. Was 250 the upper limit of the scale that was used, such that you actually don't know how high they were originally, i.e. "off the charts"?  Were his other liver test functions (ALT, AST) originally elevated?
