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.

Oh my GOSH!!! I just looked at the Celiac Specialties website and the donuts look amazing! Open Original Shared Link , by the way...

Are they all cake type donuts?

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!

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      Thanks for responding. I researched further and Lindt Lindor chocolate balls do contain barely malt powder which contains gluten. I was surprised at all of the conflicting information I found when I checked online.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      @BlessedinBoston, it is possible that in Canada the product in question is formulated differently than in the USA or at least processed in in a facility that precludes cross contamination. I assume from your user name that you are in the USA. And it is also possible that the product meets the FDA requirement of not more than 20ppm of gluten but you are a...

      No,Lindt is not gluten free no matter what they say on their website. I found out the hard way when I was newly diagnosed in 2000. At that time the Lindt truffles were just becoming popular and were only sold in small specialty shops at the mall. You couldn't buy them in any stores like today and I was obsessed with them 😁.

I assume from your user name that you are in the USA. And it is also possible that the product meets the FDA requirement of not more than 20ppm of gluten but you are a super sensitive celiac for whom that standard is insufficient.

At that time the Lindt truffles were just becoming popular and were only sold in small specialty shops at the mall. You couldn't buy them in any stores like today and I was obsessed with them 😁. Took me a while to get around to checking them and was heartbroken when I saw they were absolutely not gluten free 😔. Felt the same when I realized Twizzlers weren't either. Took me a while to get my diet on order after being diagnosed. I was diagnosed with small bowel non Hodgkins lymphoma at the same time. So it was a very stressful time to say the least. Hope this helps 😁.

      @Jmartes71, I understand your frustration and anger.  I've been in a similar situation where no doctor took me seriously, accused me of making things up, and eventually sent me home to suffer alone.   My doctors did not recognize nutritional deficiencies.  Doctors are trained in medical learning institutions that are funded by pharmaceutical companies.  They are taught which medications cover up which symptoms.  Doctors are required to take twenty  hours of nutritional education in seven years of medical training.  (They can earn nine hours in Nutrition by taking a three day weekend seminar.)  They are taught nutritional deficiencies are passe' and don't happen in our well fed Western society any more.  In Celiac Disease, the autoimmune response and inflammation affects the absorption of ALL the essential vitamins and minerals.  Correcting nutritional deficiencies caused by malabsorption is essential!  I begged my doctor to check my Vitamin D level, which he did only after making sure my insurance would cover it.  When my Vitamin D came back extremely low, my doctor was very surprised, but refused to test for further nutritional deficiencies because he "couldn't make money prescribing vitamins.". I believe it was beyond his knowledge, so he blamed me for making stuff up, and stormed out of the exam room.  I had studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I switched because I was curious what vitamins from our food were doing in our bodies.  Vitamins are substances that our bodies cannot manufacture, so we must ingest them every day.  Without them, our bodies cannot manufacture life sustaining enzymes and we sicken and die.   At home alone, I could feel myself dying.  It's an unnerving feeling, to say the least, and, so, with nothing left to lose, I relied in my education in nutrition.  My symptoms of Thiamine deficiency were the worst, so I began taking high dose Thiamine.  I had health improvement within an hour.  It was magical.  I continued taking high dose thiamine with a B Complex, magnesium. and other essential nutrients.  The health improvements continued for months.  High doses of thiamine are required to correct a thiamine deficiency because thiamine affects every cell and mitochondria in our bodies.    A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function.  The cerebellum of the brain is most affected.  The cerebellum controls things we don't have to consciously have to think about, like digestion, balance, breathing, blood pressure, heart rate, hormone regulation, and many more.  Thiamine is absorbed from the digestive tract and sent to the most important organs like the brain and the heart.  This leaves the digestive tract depleted of Thiamine and symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency localized in the digestive system, begin to appear.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi include anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue, headaches, Gerd, acid reflux, gas, slow stomach emptying, gastroparesis, bloating, diarrhea and/or constipation, incontinence, abdominal pain, IBS,  SIBO, POTS, high blood pressure, heart rate changes like tachycardia, difficulty swallowing, Barrett's Esophagus, peripheral neuropathy, and more. Doctors are only taught about thiamine deficiency in alcoholism and look for the classic triad of symptoms (changes in gait, mental function, and nystagmus) but fail to realize that gastrointestinal symptoms can precede these symptoms by months.  All three classic triad of symptoms only appear in fifteen percent of patients, with most patients being diagnosed with thiamine deficiency post mortem.  I had all three but swore I didn't drink, so I was dismissed as "crazy" and sent home to die basically.   Yes, I understand how frustrating no answers from doctors can be.  I took OTC Thiamine Hydrochloride, and later thiamine in the forms TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and Benfotiamine to correct my thiamine deficiency.  I also took magnesium, needed by thiamine to make those life sustaining enzymes.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins, so the other B vitamins must be supplemented as well.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   A doctor can administer high dose thiamine by IV along with the other B vitamins.  Again, Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine should be given if only to rule Gastrointestinal Beriberi out as a cause of your symptoms.  If no improvement, no harm is done. Share the following link with your doctors.  Section Three is especially informative.  They need to be expand their knowledge about Thiamine and nutrition in Celiac Disease.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test for thiamine deficiency.  This test is more reliable than a blood test. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling.  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Best wishes!
