Anyone out there have a good donut recipe? This will be the fourth time I have attempted donuts. Last night the receipe was very easy it called for potatostarch, eggs and a couple other simple ingredients. I fried them but the middles were raw.... It was gross. I have not tried the receipe for mash potatoe donuts. Several receipes keep going back to adding cold mash potatoes. The receipes seem a little tedious so im not sure about attempting these yet. Please anyone! I have conquered so many food items; donuts not yet one. The Kimminnike donuts are good but they just are not like a Dunkin Donut. You remember nice and fresh sweet light donuts.... Help.... My tummy will be eternally greatfull!!!

Someone, somewhere mentioned taking the Chebe mix - and just rolling it into a donut shape and frying it.

I honestly have not tried it, so I don't know how it would work. But, it's worth a try - right? =)

Oddly enough, I've never liked "real" donuts, but I LOVE the Kinnikinnick Maple Glazed!!!

I can't help you with a recipe but I can say we love the glazed donuts from celiac specialities in michigan.They are the very best we have ever eaten.They also sell a mac & cheese that is great. It is made by Heartland for them.

C.specialities also has a nice line of other things too, muffins & etc.I just usually get the donuts but I have tried other things.

enjoy

Kinnikinnick donuts are a little heavy for me too, but their cinnamon rolls are really good.

I've had limited success with an old-fashioned "fried bread" type of thing like my grandma used to make. She would just take regular (gluten of course) bread dough and flatten and stretch a ball of it with her hands until it was kind of like a fritter size. Then she'd fry it and we'd put sugar or jam on it. It was the best. Not a donut. But still that kind of idea.

I've only tried it a couple times with gluten-free bread dough and it worked pretty well. I've pretty much lost my sweet tooth as a process of this whole gluten-free diet. My husband and my daughter don't have a sweet tooth either so any experiments end up going to waste. So I haven't gotten too experimental with things like donuts persay. But a piece of fried bread every once in a while while baking bread works for me.

Just what I have been looking for! I have been looking for a tasty doughnut premade. Dh ate cream filled krispy kreme's in front of me the other day. One of my old favorite foods :angry:

mamaw- Do you pick them up or order them? They are about an hour away from me and I'm not familiar with the area except that its near detroit. Is it a safe area? Yeah Im from a hick town so the big cities scare me :lol:

Hi AutumnE

I mail-order just about everything because I too have not much near me.I think the area is safe but I can't say for sure. If you e-mail Debby she will be able to tell you for sure. I live in Pa...

I wish someone would come out with a super cream one next!!!!!!! For now when I get hungary for that I eat a cream puff.......

My daughter was there on her vacation & she didn't say she felt unsafe.... I get a tad panicky at times when I'm in big cities too. It must be a small town phobia or something!!!!!I know life in a big city is no way close to my daily routine.I like to visit & learn & see things but I wouldn't (couldn't) live in a big city.

I tried the Kinninnick donuts too. They were heavy and thick...not tasty to me. I'll be interested to see if anyone has a recipe!

Thanks :)

I might just order them myself also. With the price of gas nowadays especially. I love super creamy doughnuts too. I get super nervous in big towns, I use to live about 20 minutes away from one and it left with a jaded view, it is one of the most crime ridden cities in the u.s. so it scares me to leave my community.

I like to visit big cities but I wouldnt want to live there.Where I live Im surrounded by corn fields and I wouldnt have it any other way :)

I have donut pans, Im going to buy their mix instead of the ready made and add cream in the middle. YUM!

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/

      Thank you so much for the clarification! Yes to these questions: Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, or vitamins? I’m within healthy range for nutritional tests, thyroid and am not anemic. I do have osteopenia. I don’t take any medications, and the dietician was actually a nutritionist (not sure if that is the same thing) recommended by my physician at the time to better understand gluten free eating.    I almost wish the gluten exposure had triggered something, so at least I’d know what’s going on. So confusing!    Many thanks!

      @JudyLou,  I have dermatitis herpetiformis, too!  And...big drum roll... Niacin improves dermatitis herpetiformis!   Niacin is very important to skin health and intestinal health.   You're correct.  dermatitis herpetiformis usually occurs on extensor muscles, but dermatitis herpetiformis is also pressure sensitive, so blisters can form where clothing puts pressure on the skin. Elastic waist bands, bulky seams on clothing, watch bands, hats.  Rolled up sleeves or my purse hanging on my arm would make me break out on the insides of my elbows.  I have had a blister on my finger where my pen rested as I write.  Foods high in Iodine can cause an outbreak and exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. You've been on the gluten free diet for a long time.  Our gluten free diet can be low in vitamins and minerals, especially if processed gluten free foods are consumed.  Those aren't fortified with vitamins like gluten containing products are.  Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, medicine, or vitamins? Niacin deficiency is connected to anemia.  Anemia can cause false negatives on tTg IgA tests.  A person can be on that borderline where symptoms wax and wane for years, surviving, but not thriving.  We have a higher metabolic need for more nutrients when we're sick or emotionally stressed which can deplete the small amount of vitamins we can store in our bodies and symptoms reappear.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards. The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.    Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.   However, another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.   I recommend getting checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  More than just Vitamin D and B12.  A gluten challenge would definitely be a stressor capable of precipitating further vitamin deficiencies and health consequences.   Best wishes!
