I have only been doing this gluten-free baking for a month now and the first 2 times I made cupcakes they were good, they were moist and yummy...maybe because one was banana and one was strawberry. this weekend I made mint chocolate chip ones..GARBAGE IMO. they were dry and hard and nasty. Emmah was not impressed :wacko:

Does anyone have any cupcake/ muffin recipes they wouldn't mind sharing with me?

Thanks

This recipe is from Open Original Shared Link submitted by Amy entitled Gluten free yellow cake. I've only ever made this as cupcakes and it is phenomenal, absolutely the best... Don't be scared off by the mayo, you can't taste it in the recipe. Be sure to use full fat mayo, no light stuff or it won't turn out.

INGREDIENTS

* 1 1/2 cups white rice flour

* 3/4 cup tapioca flour

* 1 teaspoon salt

* 1 teaspoon baking soda

* 3 teaspoons baking powder

* 1 teaspoon xanthan gum

* 4 eggs

* 1 1/4 cups white sugar

* 2/3 cup mayonnaise

* 1 cup milk

* 2 teaspoons gluten-free vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and rice flour two 8 or 9 inch round cake pans.

2. Mix the white rice flour, tapioca flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder and xanthan gum together and set aside.

3. Mix the eggs, sugar, and mayonnaise until fluffy. Add the flour mixture, milk and vanilla and mix well. Spread batter into the prepared pans.

4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 minutes. Cakes are done when they spring back when lightly touched or when a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Let cool completely then frost, if desired.

EEK! I just scoured the King Arthur Flours website and don't see this pan! Can you post a link for me?

Has anyone developed a frosting (filling) recipe that would rival a twinkie's?

Top Secret Recipes came through with that one. They have a lot of free recipes. One of them just happens to be the Twinkie Cream Filling.

I don't know how into mixes you are, but this is really easy and EVERYONE thinks it is a regular cake. Arrowhead makes an INCREDIBLE cake mix. It's Arrowhead "Vanilla" Cake Mix. It's awesome. And other than the shelf life being shorter, no one would EVER even know it is gluten free. I have it every year on my birthday becuase it is so easy for anyone to make for me and keep it gluten free.

You would be amazed at the taste and texture.

For frosting, Pillsbury has tons of choices for you. They will even send you a mailing on all of their gluten free frostings.

Hpapy Birthday to your daughter!

This made a great chocolate cake - moist and somewhat high...and my 3 year old loved it (but its a tad bitter without frosting which I made w/ margarine, vanilla and powdered sugar to be dairy free so I could eat it)...ironically, my 3 year old is not gluten-free - I made the cake for me and she and my hubby ate it all! The recipe is from Bob's Red Mill gluten-free baking flour:

1/5 cups Bob's Red Mill all0purpose gluten-free baking powder

1 c brown sugar

1/2 c unsweetened cocoa powder (not dutch)

1 t baking soda

1 t xanthan gum

3/4t salt

1/2 c milk (i used rice milk)

1/3 c butter, margarine or shortening (I used canola oil)

1 egg

1 t vanilla extract

3/4 c warm brewed coffee

preheat to 350. place all ingredients, except coffee in large bowl and blend with electric mixer. add coffee and mix until thoroughly blended (I found the batter rather gummy, but it works). Pour into prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean!

Hmmm, I'm sure this is a typo. How much flour? Is it supposed to be 1-1/2 cups?

Okay Gang it's Sunday night & I have twinkies,gluten-free waffles, gluten-free pumpkin roll & Carrie's soft breadsticks!!!!!!!!!

Did you all get lost or something??????????I thought you would be here today after picking up Jersey Angel!!!!!!!!!Oh well , I guess we will just have to eat them ourselves.......

I couldn't find the pan at Bed & Bath, they told me it was a seasonal item, so maybe it can be found now. King Arthur didn't have it in the catalog, I called them & asked if they still had any. I actually got it for $13.00 I think........I also checked the kitchen stores & they didn't have it either........

-----------Twinkies, Twinkies, Twinkies------- wish you were here......calories,calories, calories!!!!!!!

Anyway , you all are welcome anytime.......

HI-I was just watching the food network and they were making whoopie pies, for the filling they used marshmallow creme and confectioners sugar. Of course this is not a recipe, but I thought that it would create much the same taste as twinkie filling. I haven't tried it yet but now I need to get the pan and get started. :P

Woah woah woah... You made them? Did they turn out? Do they taste like twinkies? I'm so very jealous right now. Hated twinkies pre-gluten-free days, but for some reason I am CRAVING one right now...

The kids gobbled them up so I, myself only got a bit... you can take it from there as to whether they were good because I didn't get enough to actually taste!!!

I'm going to try again when they are not around so I can assest the taste..........

Clan Thompson's website has a recipe for gluten free twinkies too-I haven't made them myself though-

Open Original Shared Link

You may be interested as there is a filling recipe (this is by Connie Sarros). If you use a whip cream filling, you must refrigerate the Twinkies-these use Crisco in the filling so that refrigeration is not necessary. So that would not be a low fat Twinkie recipe then...not that Twinkies ever were low fat <_< Seriously, just ran across this last week and now people are talking about Twinkies! :P

      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?
