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!

Guest AutumnE

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!

      Welcome to the forum, @McKinleyWY, For a genetic test, you don't have to eat gluten, but this will only show if you have the genes necessary for the development of Celiac disease.  It will not show if you have active Celiac disease.   Eating gluten stimulates the production of antibodies against gluten which mistakenly attack our own bodies.  The antibodies are produced in the small intestines.  Three grams of gluten are enough to make you feel sick and ramp up anti-gluten antibody production and inflammation for two years afterwards.  However, TEN grams of gluten or more per day for two weeks is required to stimulate anti-gluten antibodies' production enough so that the anti-gluten antibodies move out of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they can be measured in blood tests.  This level of anti-gluten antibodies also causes measurable damage to the lining of the intestines as seen on biopsy samples taken during an endoscopy (the "gold standard" of Celiac diagnosis).   Since you have been experimenting with whole wheat bread in the past year or so, possibly getting cross contaminated in a mixed household, and your immune system is still so sensitized to gluten consumption, you may want to go ahead with the gluten challenge.   It can take two years absolutely gluten free for the immune system to quit reacting to gluten exposure.   Avoiding gluten most if the time, but then experimenting with whole wheat bread is a great way to keep your body in a state of inflammation and illness.  A diagnosis would help you stop playing Russian roulette with your and your children's health.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @McKinleyWY! There currently is no testing for celiac disease that does not require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and, to be certain of accurate testing, longer than that. This applies to both phases of testing, the blood antibody tests and the endoscopy with biopsy.  There is the option of genetic testing to see if you have one or both of the two genes known to provide the potential to develop celiac disease. It is not really a diagnostic measure, however, as 30-40% of the general population has one or both of these genes whereas only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But genetic testing is valuable as a rule out measure. If you don't have either of the genes, it is highly unlikely that you can have celiac disease. Having said all that, even if you don't have celiac disease you can have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms as celiac disease but does not involve and autoimmune reaction that damages the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Both conditions call for the complete elimination of gluten from the diet. I hope this brings some clarity to your questions.

      Hello all, I was diagnosed at the age of 2 as being allergic to yeast.  All my life I have avoided bread and most products containing enriched flour as they  contain yeast (when making the man made vitamins to add back in to the flour).  Within the last year or so, we discovered that even whole wheat products bother me but strangely enough I can eat gluten free bread with yeast and have no reactions.  Obviously, we have come to believe the issue is gluten not yeast.  Times continues to reinforce this as we are transitioning to a gluten free home and family.  I become quite ill when I consume even the smallest amount of gluten. How will my not having consumed breads/yeast/gluten for the better part of decades impact a biopsy or blood work?  I would love to know if it is a gluten intolerance or a genetic issue for family members but unsure of the results given my history of limited gluten intake.   I appreciate the input from those who have gone before me in experience and knowledge. Thank you all!

      I know what you mean. When I get glutened I have severe gut cramps and throw up for 2-3 hr. and then have diarrhea for another several hours. Avoid eating out if at all possible. It is the number one source of gluten contamination for us celiacs. When you are forced to eat out at a new restaurant that you are not sure is safe, try to order things that you can be sure will not get cross contaminated like a boiled egg, baked potatos, steamed vegies, fresh fruit. Yes, I know that doesn't sound as appetizing as pizza or a burger and fries but your health is at stake. I also realize that as a 14 year old you don't have a lot of control over where you eat out because you are tagging along with others or adults are paying for it. Do you have support from your parents concerning your need to eat gluten free? Do you believe they have a good understanding of the many places gluten can show up in the food supply?

      Okay went online to check green mountain k cups .It was said that the regular coffees are fine but they couldn’t guarantee cross contamination.with the flavors. im trying to figure out since I eliminated the suyrup so far so good.
