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!

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!

      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?
