Does anyone have a recipe for pumpkin roll that does not contain white rice flour and potato flour or know what I can use to substitute those flours?

Pumpkin Bars

(Sort of a moist pumpkin cake with cream cheese icing)

4 eggs

1 2/3 cup of sugar

1 c. oil

1 can (@16 oz.) of pumpkin

Beat this together until fluffy.

In a seperate bowl, mix:

2 cups gluten-free flour (I used Bob's - but whatever)

2 t. baking soda

2 t. cinnamon

1 t. salt

1 t. gluten-free baking powder

Mix the wet and dry ingredients together and pour into a 9x13 pan.

Bake @ 350 for @ 30 minutes or until it is done all the way through - test with a toothpick if needed.

Icing is made by creaming 3 oz. of cream cheese and 1/2 c. softened butter together. Then add 2 cups powdered sugar and 1 t. vanilla. Beat well.

Pour icing over bars while they are hot. The icing will melt across the bars into yummy pumpkin loveliness!

This is our favorite holiday treat!

Elfkin,

I just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!!

Tonight my husband and I went to his cousins for an early Thanksgiving dinner. They knew about my Celiac and really did try to accommodate my restrictions. I told them I would bring some desserts and my deviled eggs.

I made your pumpkin bars last night (my only change was I added some Xanthan gum). I also cut the cake in half and on one section poured the icing and on the other section I dusted powdered sugar on it. The bars were a HUGE success.

My husband's aunt made a homemade gluten filled spice cake, and after everyone got a sample of mine and tried a sample of hers, they really liked the pumpkin bars the best. Even she said it was excellent. In fact my bars were all eaten and her cake was almost whole. I got asked for the recipe by everyone there. I just want to say thank you. Making this and having it turn out so good really boosted my confidence.

Well I don't have any recipes to add yet... as I am still pretty new to this whole thing... but my mom who is a fabulous cook and baker is preparing an entire gluten free menu for our thanksgiving feast even though I'm the only celiac (diagnosed that is) in the family... I've got the bestest mom in the whole world!!!

Anyway... here are some really cool recipe tips for everyone...

A fabulous substitution for a traditional graham cracker cheesecake crust that she is going with for her famous pumpkin cheesecake... the Mi-O-del gluten-free/wf cookies ground up into a crust mixture with butter or ghee or whatever fatty ingredient that you would use for softening and binding... for her particular cake she is using the ginger snap one... and instead of using white flour in the cheesecake filling as done in previous years... she's using coconut flour... so I'm set!!!

She is also using coconut flour in her crumble topping for her sweet potato casserole...

She uses cornstarch in her gravy instead of flour for thickening... she's always done this and it is wonderful.... you just add 2 tbsp of cornstarch to cold water... mix well and then pour into a saucepan with the turkey drippings and simmer on low heat stirring often...

She's making a gingerbread truffle using the cookies mentioned above...

For Christmas dinner... we usually have a traditional Italian smorgasbord including lasagna, meatbealls, etc... she's going to use the Tinkayada lasagna noodles... and she makes her own filling using ricotta, parsley, salt, pepper and egg... and her own sauce using freshly pureed tomatoes, sauteed onions, garlic, parsley, sugar, fresh parmesan cheese, fennel seed and a little olive oil...

If all turns out well... as I'm sure it will... I'm going to try and convince her to put together a gluten free holiday cookbook... if she does that... I'll have her email me a copy and I will offer to send the file freely to anyone on this message board :-)

Stuffing

4 shallots, minced (or 4 garlic cloves minced)

1 onion, diced (or minced in a food processor or blender)

5 small-medium celery sticks, diced (or minced in a foof processor or blender)

5 small-medium carrots, diced (or minced in a foof processor or blender)

3 tbl soy butter

1.5 Tbl dry sage

1.5 Tbl dry thyme

1.5 Tbl dry summer savory

1 Tbl Pasley (Optional)

dash of pepper

1 cup white wine (water is another option)

1 loaf gluten-free bread, cubed (I use Kinnikinnick Italian white tapioca, thawed) (toasting cubes in the oven is an option)

1 cup gluten-free chicken stock (I use 1 cup of Imagine chicken broth, or 2

cubes of McCormick chicken bouillon and 1 cup of water).

Optional: chestnuts, apples, raisons, cranberries, peacans.

Sauté the vegetables in the butter until they are soft, and the onions begin to carmelize. Add the seasonings and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add the white wine, and continue cooking over medium heat until the liquid is reduced by half. In a casserole dish, mix all ingedients together. Bake for 20-30 minutes at 325 F.

Robina, what is a gingerbread truffle? It sounds delicious! I'd love a copy of your mom's recipes :)

Carriefaith Enthusiast

Apple Crisp

4-5 bitter apples, peeled and cut into slices (Granny Smith maybe?)

1 cup Kinnikinnick All Purpose Flour Mix (or your personal favorite mixture)

1/2 cup of brown sugar (you may need more!)

1Tlb Cinnamin

3 Tbl Earth Balance soy butter (or oil)

Basically this is really simple. Use a medium sized pan for baking brownies. Coat the pan in some melted butter (or use oil if easier), place apple slices onthe pan in rows. Mix gluten-free flour, cinnamin and brown sugar together in a bowl. Sprinkle the whole dry mixture on top of apples. Pour melted butter or oil on top and bake for about 20-30 at 350 until done. Keep checking so that it doesn't burn.

Thank you Carrie. :)

My husband was looking for apple crisp. I will definately try this.

Sorry sweetfudge for not getting back to u sooner... I've been working 16 hour days and haven't gotten to the forum as much as I would like to... I'll get the recipe from her today and post it in it's own topic for Christmas desserts :-)

so here's a question. i bought a baking pumpkin. does it work the same as far as measurements go for recipes w/ canned pumpkin stuff? what would i need to do instead? just thought i'd be ambitious. maybe i'll just make it into a soup, and save the canned stuff for the baking. i read in a health food magazine last month that canned pumpkin is actually better than real pumpkin. maybe not calorie wise, but as far as baking goes, and flavor goes. hm, who knows.

I don't know if you can find chocolate chips that meet your requirements, as I only need to be gluten-free. But my first year making a pumpkin pie I hadn't yet figured out a crust and used crushed pecans and crushed chocolate chips mixed together. Put them in the bottom of a greased pie plate and microwave them until soft enough (but not melted) to push down and together. Then just pour a no-bake pumpkin pie on top. Everyone loved it so much (and I was the only gluten-free person at the meal) that it is requested every year! I also drizzled a fine thread of melted chocolate on top of the pie for decoration.

mmm, this sounds heavenly!

BB---I actually thought of you about two weeks ago when I was eating the cheesecake myself. I'm happy you enjoy it. My mom is a sweetheart and made it for me....it is SO delicious!

BTW, we've started adding a bit more pumpkin for a stronger taste. Last batch one had a crust (ginger snap cookie, like yours) and the other was crustless. Delicious!

This is my husband's Nanny's recipe. It has been a family favorite for years and I was delighted to find out it can easily be made gluten free

Corn Bread Stuffing

Bake 2 cornbreads-I follow the directions on the back of the cornmeal package.

Boil a regular cut up chicken until tender. Remove chicken from broth.

Chop some celery and onion and saute in skillet with some butter.

Mix celery mixture and cornbread mixture. Add all of broth from chicken. And if needed, 1 can chicken broth. Stir well. (should be soupy) Add sage to taste. Spray large pan with Pam and add dressing. Bake at 350 degrees until brown on top.

You can (and she usually does) add chicken pieces on top of dressing before baking

Sweetfudge,

Yes you can sub it cup for cup. Just puree it really good and be sure that there are no tough fibers before pureeing. For baking, if you feel that it is a little thicker than the canned you can mix in a tiny bit of water or milk. If it seems thinner, you can decrease the amount of liquid in the recipie by a few tablespoons. You'll enjoy the freshness of it I think. I do this with butternut squash and use it instead of pumpkin for our Thanksgiving pie. I freeze the extra in 1 cup containers.

Have fun!

This recipe is amazing! I used 1/2 cup applesauce and 1/2 cup walnut oil instead of 1 cup oil.

I used 1 cup sucanat instead of 1 2/3 cup sugar, and 1 t. pumpkin pie spice mix instead of 1 t. cinnamon.

Then...since I'm casein-free, I added chopped walnuts to the top of the cake when there was about 10 minutes baking time left. When it came out of the oven I drizzled icing made with rice milk and powdered sugar over the walnuts. It was REALLY GOOD :D

Yippee it is Thanksgiving time again!! I never thought I would feel that way again but thanks to everyone here and all of the great recipes last year was a HUGE hit and this year will be even better!

We just made this today, in preparation for our Thanksgiving. We had been planning on holding a "Thanksgiving in October" today and had invited 8 people, but we had to cancel on Friday, as I got extremely sick. I still feel pretty darn awful, but we wanted to try this recipe out, so my husband, as he does most of the cooking anyway (he likes it whereas I tolerate it), made some with my assistance from the couch.

Open Original Shared Link

2 loaves gluten-free bread, diced into one-inch cubes, toasted and cooled (we used 1 loaf Kinnikinnick white sandwich bread, thawed, and cubed and then toasted in the oven on broil for a minute or so on each side)

2 large ribs celery, medium diced

1 large yellow onion, medium diced

2 tablespoons good olive oil

2 tablespoons garlic, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh sage, finely chopped

1 cup chicken stock

1 egg yolk

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

Sautee the onion and celery in olive oil on medium-low heat until they are translucent. You will be able to smell the onions cooking at this point. (Take a deep whiff. That's a beautiful smell.) Add the garlic, as well as the rosemary, sage, and thyme. Stir these in and cook until you can smell the herbs, about one to two minutes. Remove from heat.

Bring the chicken stock to boil on high heat. Place the egg yolk in a medium-sized bowl and carefully ladle two to three ounces of the chicken stock to the egg yolk, slowly, while whisking the mixture. Add the rest of the chicken stock to the egg mixture at this point. (Ladling a small portion of the stock into the egg first, and blending it, will prevent you from having scrambled eggs.)

Add the cooled celery, onion, and herbs mixture into the stock and egg mixture. Toss the bread cubes into this mixture and stir it all around with your hands (or a spoon), to coat the bread. Add the salt and pepper and toss the bread again. Place all of this into a greased casserole dish (big enough to hold three quarts) and cover it with aluminum foil. Bake for twenty minutes at 425

You could use funyuns on the green bean casserole (they are gluten free). As far as the stove top stuffing substitute, I'd make the gluten free stuffing recipe listed in this forum. Hope this helps!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

      Sorry for the long post. I’m 18, and I was diagnosed with celiac disease and type 1 diabetes (T1D). My transglutaminase IgA was >128 U/mL, EMA IgA positive twice, and I’m HLA-DQ2 and DQ8 positive. I’ve been completely asymptomatic since diagnosis, even when I cheated with gluten sometimes in the past and used to eat out(2-5 years ago) I don’t get the typical celiac reactions, which makes it really hard to know when (or if) I’ve been glutened. But for the past year, I’ve been the most strict with my diet, and that’s also when a bunch of new issues started. I eat completely glutenfree, never eat out, dont eat food that says „may contain gluten“.   Current Health Problems • Floating, undigested stools for over a year now. Dont think its related to celiac as it was like this since im 17 and not 13-16( i got diagnosed at 13). • Chronic back pain started gradually, worsens with movement, lots of cracking/popping sounds. Been ongoing for a year now. First noticed in the gym. • Abdominal bulge on the right side, not painful but seems to be getting slightly bigger. Doctor didn’t find a hernia on ultrasound, but it was done lying down (I’ve read those can miss hernias). Noticed it like 6 months ago, couldve been there longer. • extremely dry and mildly swollen hands (this started before I started excessive hand-washing), and bloated face. • Signs of inattentive ADHD (noticed over the past 3 years), now combined with severe OCD focused on contamination and cross-contact. • Growth/puberty seemed to started after going gluten-free. Before that I was not developing. Dont know if any of these are because of celiac as my dad doesnt have those and he is a lot less strict gluten-free then me. I also had pancreatic elastase tested four times: values were 46 (very low), 236, 158, and 306 (normal). Gastroenterologist said one normal value is enough and I don’t have EPI. Family doctor prescribed Kreon anyway (after I pushed for it), and I just started taking 1 capsule (10,000 units) with meals 2 days ago, but couldn‘t see effects yet because I’ve been constipated the last few days. Maybe because of thyroid. I don’t have Hashimoto’s. No thyroid antibodies. But I took levothyroxine for slightly low FT4 levels. My thyroid levels fluctuated between borderline low and low-normal. And recently lowered my dose so that may have caused the constipating. I probably didn’t need it in the first place, and am thinking about stopping it soon.   Current Diet Right now, I only eat a very limited set of “safe” foods I prepare myself: • Gluten-free bread with tuna or cheese • Milk and cornflakes • gluten-free cookies/snacks • Bananas (the only fruit I trust right now) I rarely eat other fruits or vegetables, because I’m scared of contamination. My dad, who also has celiac but doesn’t care about CC, buys fruits, and he might’ve picked them up right after handling gluten bread. That makes me feel unsafe eating them. Even fruit at stores or markets feels risky because so many people with gluten on their hands touch them.   My Home Situation (Shared Kitchen) We’re a family of 5. Only my dad and I have celiac. He eats glutenfree but doesn’t care about CC and sometimes (but rarely) cheats. My mom and siblings eat gluten bread at every meal. My mom is honest (so if i ask her to be cautious, she most likely would try to), but doesn’t seem to understand how serious celiac is. She: • Stopped using gluten flour • only cooks gluten-free meals (but they still heat up gluten bread and also cook gluten noodles) • Keeps separate butter/jam/jars for me • Bought me a stainless steel pan Bu we didn’t replace old wooden utensils, cutting boards, or other pans. The new they bought me pan was even carried home in a shopping bag with gluten bread in it, which triggered my OCD. It also has a rubber handle and I’m scared it might still hold onto gluten. Even if it’s washed well, it’s stored next to other pans that were used for gluten food/bread. Our kitchen table is used for eating gluten bread daily. My mom wipes it but not with soap. I’m scared tiny particles remain. If she made gluten-free bread dough on a board at the table, I’d still worry about cross contmaination contamination even with something under the dough and on the table as at one point the dough would probably touch the table. So I stopped eating anything she makes.   I know OCD is making it worse, but I can’t tell how much of my fear is real and how much is anxiety. Examples: • I wash my hands 20–30 times a day — before eating, after touching anything at home or outside, after using my phone/laptop. • I don’t let others touch my phone, and I’m scared to use my laptop because friends at school or my brother (who eat gluten) have touched it. And it annoys me a lot when others touch my stuff and feels like it got contaminated and is unsafe instantly. • I stopped eating while using my phone or laptop, afraid of invisible gluten being on them. • I wash my hands after opening food packaging (since it was on store cashier belts where gluten food is placed). • I avoid sitting anywhere except my bed or one clean chair. • I won’t shake hands with anyone or walk past people eating gluten. • At school, when switching classes, I wash my hands before getting out my laptop, again before opening it, etc. • I open door knobs with my elbows instead my hands   Job Concerns (Powder Coating, Sandblasting, Etc.) I’m working a temporary job right now that involves: • Powder coating • Sandblasting • Wet spray painting • Anodizing There’s also a laboratory. I don’t need this job, and my OCD makes me believe that dust or air particles there might contain gluten somehow. Should I quit?   Doctors Haven’t Helped My family doctor told me: “Asymptomatic celiac isn’t serious, if you have no symptoms, your intestines won’t get damaged, so you don’t need a gluten-free diet.” I knew that was wrong, but he wasn’t open to listening. I just nodded and didn‘t argue. My gastroenterologist (who’s also a dietitian) said: „If your antibodies are negative, there’s no damage. It might even be okay to try small amounts of gluten later if antibodies stay negative.“ Also said, pepper that says “may contain gluten” is fine if it only contains pepper. She was more informed than my family doctor but didn’t seem to fully understand celiac either.   Questions I Need Help With 1. Is it realistically safe to eat food my mom cooks, if we get separate pans/ and boards even if gluten is still used in the same kitchen? There will always be low risk of cc chances like that she will still touch stuff that was touched by her and my siblings after they ate gluten. And as there are gluten eaters in the house and she also prepares and eats gluten. So would opening the fridge then getting the food and touching the food be okay? So basically what i am doing, washing my hands multiple times while preparing food, she would only wash it once before, then touch anything else (for example water tap or handles) that were touched with gluteny hands, then also touch the food. I dont know if I ever could feel safe, I could try telling her how important cc really is. And I trust her so she wouldnt lie to me then be careless about cc, but idk how safe it really can be if she and everyone else keeps eating gluten and touching stuff in the house after eating. 2. Do I need to worry about touching doorknobs, fridge handles, light switches, etc. that family members touched after eating gluten? What about public places like bus handles or school desks? Or like if i went to the gym, I would be touching stuff all the time, so there will be small amounts of gluten and those would get transferred on my phone if I touch my phone while in the gym. But I want to knos if it would be enough to do damage. 3. Is an endoscopy (without biopsy) enough to tell if my intestines are healed? I’d pay privately if it could help and if i dont get a refferal. Or do i need a biopsy? 4. Could my job (powder coating, sandblasting, etc.) expose me to gluten or damage my intestines through air/dust? 5. Do I need certified gluten-free toothpaste, hand soap, shampoo, or moisturizer? (For example: Vaseline and Colgate don’t contain gluten ingredients but say they can’t guarantee it’s gluten-free.) 6. Is spices like pepper with “may contain traces of gluten” safe if no gluten ingredients are listed? Or does everything need to be labeled gluten-free?  7. Is continuing to only eat my own food the better choice, or could I eventually go back to eating what my mom cooks if she’s careful? 8. is cutlery from dishwasher safe if there are stains? Stuff like knives is used for cutting gluten bread or fork for noodles etc. I often see stains which i dont know if its gluten or something else but our dish washer doesnt seem to make it completely clean. 9. I wash my hands multiple times while preparing food. Do i need to do the same when touching my phone. Like if i touch the fridge handle, I wash my hands then touch the phone. I dont eat while using my phone but i leave it on my bed and pillow and my face could come in contact with where it was.  10. Do i need to clean my phone or laptop if theyve been used by people who eat gluten? Even if no crumbs fall onto my keybaord, i mean because of invisible gluten on their fingers. 11. Does medication/supplements have to be strictly glutenfree? One company said they couldn‘t guarantee if their probiotics don’t contain traces of gluten.  12. I had bought supplements in the past, some of them say glutenfree and some of them dont(like the brand „NOW“ from iherb). I bought them and used them when i wasnt washing my hands so often, are they still safe? As I touched and opened them after touching door knobs, water taps etc. It was like a year ago when i bought those and even though i was eating gluten-free, I never worried about what i touch etc. I know this post is long. I’m just extremely overwhelmed. I’m trying to protect myself from long-term health damage, but the OCD is destroying my quality of life, and I honestly don’t know what’s a reasonable level of caution anymore. Thanks for reading.

      I've been making a lot of black bean brownies lately because it's one of the few gluten free dessert recipes that actually tastes palatable.  I've also seen chocolate cake recipes with black beans.  Someone mentioned a cookie recipe using lentils in place of flour.  Just wondering if anyone's run across any tried and true recipes using beans, lentils or peas for desserts?  I've seen a lot of recipes for garbanzo flour but I'm allergic to garbanzo beans/chickpeas.  Was wondering if adzuki or pinto beans might be useful in replacing some or all of the flour in baking.  Since gluten free flours can be crumbly was hoping the beans might help produce a better, less crumbly consistency.  Any recommendations for recipes?  Thanks.

      I've seen a lot of recipes for chia pudding, so I decided to make some with chia, water, cocoa and honey.  Didn't like the taste, so I added ground sunflower and ground pumpkin seed to it.  It tasted okay, but came out more like frosting that pudding.  I used to make pudding with tapioca starch, milk powder, water and sugar.  It came out very good but I haven't figured out what to use to replace the milk powder to make it dairy free.  Most starches will work in place of tapioca starch but quantity varies depending on the type of starch.  If I didn't add enough starch to get a pudding consistency, I'd add gelatin as well to fix it.  Avocado and cocoa makes a good dessert with a pudding like consistency.  Unfortunately, I have a bad reaction to avocados.

      Seems like when I find a gluten free product I like, the producer stops manufacturing it and then I have trouble finding a new gluten free source for it.  What's worse, I've been contacting companies to ask if their products are gluten free and they don't even bother to respond.  So, it's making it very hard to find safe replacements.  I was buying teff flour at nuts.com and they no longer carry it.  I noticed Naturevibe has teff and soy flour.  However, I can't get a response as to whether their flours are safe for someone with celiac.  Can't get a response from Aldi if their peas are safe for someone with celiac either.  I know Bob's Red Mill has teff flour but was hoping to get a large quantity.  I've been using up the 20 ounce Bob's Red Mill teff flour too quickly.  Does anyone know of a good source for teff or soy flour?  Any recommendations where to get gluten free beans, peas or lentils?  I found some packages of gluten free beans at Sprouts but not much variety.  I've also been looking for lentil elbow macaroni and it seems like no one is making that now that Tolerant was bought out.  Any suggestions for safe sources for these types of ingredients.  Thanks.
