Gluten-free, Casein-free, Egg-free, Soy-free Butter?

I have not been able to find any "butter" that doesn't have any of the above ingredients. I found a rice butter that was "dairy free, soy free" but had casein in it.

Oil is fine for my baked potatoes, but I really want something other than jelly to put on the yummy english muffins I found.

Any ideas?

I use ghee instead of butter which is just the fat part of real butter, without the casein. It doesn't taste like butter but it has a wonderful nutty flavor.

I've been butter-free myself for quite a while now (which is a bummer sometimes). Someone told me about a butter called Smart Squeeze. I can't personally advocate it because I have no idea what the ingredients are, but I hear it's gluten, dairy and soy-free (don't know about eggs).

Here's a rice-based product line, which includes butter, cheeses, and sour cream: Open Original Shared Link

They specify gluten, soy and lactose free, but nothing about casein, which I'm guessing means it is probably in the products :( I suppose you could email them and see if they respond.

RiceGuy,

Only their 'vegan' flavours are casein free - the Veggies ones are not. They don't have much of a vegan variety.

Their whole vegan line has soy in it. Can't have that either. :(

Can you have any nut butters? I've read pecan butter is fairly smooth, so maybe that'd work for you. Seed butters might be good also. I like sesame, and plan to try a sesame butter one of these days. That to me sounds like it would be good on a bunch of different things.

<EDIT>

I just read about cashew butter and that sounds like it may work too. Here's a site that gives a description of nut butters, how they taste, and suggested uses: Open Original Shared Link

Have you considered pan-grilling them in bacon fat from gluten-free bacon?

Thanks for the suggestion! What part of the grocery store would I look for them? I haven't seen them with the regular butters.

YUM! I will definitely give that a thought...

Not too sure, but maybe with the baking ingredients, or with the peanut butter. If the store has a specialties section, then I'd check that too.

Usually nut butters are with the peanut butter in a regular grocery store. If the store has a natural foods section, there is a better selection there. At Whole Foods and those type of stores, they're all together.

If you don't see them, you can always ask the service desk. :)

For butter on bread I use Fleischmann's light butter, It taste pretty good. This butter does not work real well in baking cookies and things. I have tried to find a margarine that is soy, peanut, dairy and gluten free to use in cooking and baking but havn't had any luck yet. Oh ya and here are the ingredients for the butter, just incase you wanted to know what was in it.

INGREDIENTS: WATER, CANOLA OIL, PARTIALLY HYDROGENATED CORN OIL, SALT, PROPYLENE GLYCOL MONOSTEARATE AND VEGETABLE MONOGLYCERIDES (EMULSIFIERS), XANTHAN GUM, POTASSIUM SORBATE AND SODIUM BENZOATE AND CALCIUM DISODIUM EDTA (TO PRESERVE FRESHNESS), CITRIC ACID (ACIDULANT), ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR, VITAMIN A PALMITATE, COLORED WITH BETA CAROTENE (SOURCE OF VITAMIN A), VITAMIN D3 ADDED.

NICE!!!! :D

Thank you very much. For baking, I use shortening anyway. I'm just looking for something to put on my toast. Thanks! :)

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
