Onion Rings And Hamburger Buns


Guhlia

Recommended Posts

I made onion rings for the first time tonight. They are completely gluten free and delicious. I used Bette Hagman's pancake recipe to coat the onion rings. Next time I will use less sugar as they turned out slightly sweeter than I had envisioned. Anyway, any gluten free pancake batter would work. I used sweet onions in mine. They were nice and crunchy, while still staying soft inside, just like an onion ring's supposed to be. I deep fried them on the stove on medium heat, flipped them after the bottoms were browned, the drained them on paper towels before serving. Yum! My avatar is a picture of them...

I also made hamburger buns using Bette Hagman's Easy Pizza recipe from her Fast and Healthy cookbook. Instead of forming the dough into a pizza crust, I dropped large spoonfulls into a mammoth muffin tin (made 5 nice sized buns). They were excellent. I brushed the tops with butter before baking and I baked at 425 for about 12-14 minutes. They were fabulous. My family liked them better than any of the other gluten free breads I've made. My daughter (only two years old) ended up eating ONE AND A HALF full sized cheeseburgers she liked the buns so much. I highly recommend trying this. This pizza recipe also makes phenomenal breadsticks. Just mix as directed and then, with heavily greased hands, form breadstick shaped logs and brush with garlic butter, top with basil or parsley, bake at 425 for about 10 minutes. These were the best breadsticks I have ever had, gluten free or not. My family agreed that they were fabulous and FAR better than Chebe.

Thanks Angie. I'm putting those in my "make these soon" file. It'll have to wait until after Dec. 11. We're going to Disneyland on the 4th! I can hardly wait.

I've tried onion rings before and they were a disaster--thanks I love onion rings. :P

I've made onion rings before with one of the gluten-free pancake batters, they were really yummy. Oh and last night I made one of Bette Hagman's pizza crust recipes and it was surprisingly really good.

I have never tried to make my own buns. I have, however, made onion rings. I have a recipe for Japanese Tempura Batter, which I think is very similiar to pancake mix.. My rings looked just like your pic of them

mmm, good foods! i can't wait to try them both. i don't have anything to make hamburger bun shapes...can I just form the dough into a circular shape and bake it liek that? will it work? i've tried kinnickinnick's buns, and they're okay, kinda grainy and fall apart easily.

I make hamburger buns using what's called a "muffin top pan". I use cooking spray, and then just pile the dough in there and spread/push it out to the edges. I got mine at a local cooking store, but here's a link so you can see what type of pan I'm talking about.

You will need to make rings using aluminum foil. Should be easy enough. The dough is stiff enough that a foil ring should keep it in place while rising. These aren't grainy at all, at least we don't think so. We use Kinnikinnick flours to make them. They definitely don't fall apart easily. They are super good. I'm making more for tonight's dinner.

Mamaw, I will post the recipe as soon as I can. :)

Guhlia - you inspired me! I made onion rings tonight using Roben Ryberg's recipe. They turned out great and my kids all loved them. We'll be gong fat free for a few days though, not used to all that grease.

I have made rings from aluminum foil for buns. They work great!

From Bette Hagman's The Gluten Free Gourmet Cooks Fast & Healthy... Easy Pizza recipe...

1-1/2 cups gluten-free flour mix (3/4 cup white rice flour, 1/2 cup potato starch, 1/4 cup tapioca starch)

1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon xantham gum

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon sugar

7/8 cup lukewarm water

1 tablespoon rapid-rising yeast (1 packet)

1 egg or 1/4 cup liquid egg substitute

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 425F.

Spray a baking sheet or 15" round pizza pan with vegetable oil spray.

Blend together the flour, baking powder, xantham gum, and salt. Set aside. Add sugar to the water and stir in the yeast. Let bubble slightly.

In a mixing bowl, beat with a hand mixer at low speed the egg, oil, and the yeast water. Beat in half the flour mixture. With a spoon stir in the rest.

Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread with a spatula to a 12-1/2" circle with slightly raised edges. Allow to rise about 10 minutes and then spread on the sauce, cheese, and other toppings. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Serves 6.

Okay, now here are MY directions... They're much quicker and easier.

1. Dissolve yeast and sugar in water.

2. Mix all other dry ingredients in mixer until well combined.

3. Add egg and oil to water/yeast combo and mix with fork until egg is mixed in thoroughly.

4. Add wet mix to dry mix slowly while mixer is running and mix for a minute until well combined.

5. Pour dough onto pizza pan and spread out with heavily GREASED hands.

6. Perforate dough surface using a fork.

7. Preheat oven to 425 while dough rises for 10 minutes.

8. Bake crust for 20 minutes.

9. Remove from oven, top with sauce, cheese, and toppings.

10. Bake for another 5-10 minutes until cheese is beginning to brown on edges and melted throughout.

11. Cut and serve.

For hamburger buns, reduce water by one tablespoon. Use muffin tin or roll tin. Roll dough balls that are about 1-1/2" and flatten in greased tin until dough is touching edges on all sides. Cups should be no more than 1/2 full, dough doubles in oven. Do not perforate. Brush tops of rolls lightly with butter or margarine before baking.

This recipe also makes GREAT stuffing!!! Last night I was finally over my cold and decided to tackle my very first Thanksgiving dinner. I managed to make stuffing completely from scratch (bread and all) in about 2 hours. It was the best stuffing I've ever eaten, husband and daughter agreed. I used a mini loaf tray (It has about 12 1" loaves, very cool) and I didn't brush the loaves with butter. These tiny loaves were really easy to cut up into little cubes.

Angie,

Your avatars absolutely make my mouth water! I am still planning on trying your donuts--I keep forgetting to buy a thermometer for the oil. :blink:

I think I will try the hamburger rolls, using the GFP bread mix that I normally use. That mix dosen't have any ingredients that I'm sensitive to. I like the idea of making a form out of foil--I'll bet the dough would work fine that way. And onion rings--have *got* to try those!

Anyway, thanks again for all the good ideas :D

Guhlia Rising Star

Patti, if you don't have a candy thermometer, just do the donuts on medium heat (about setting 6) and they should turn out fine. Add the donuts to the oil once water "pops" when it hits the oil, just flick a drop off of your finger.

So the temp. dosen't need to be exact?

Guhlia Rising Star

I can't imagine why they wouldn't turn out unless the temperature was WAY off...

Thanks so much for the recipes!!!!! Everything looks so yummy!!!!!

Can you post the pancake recipe? Is it rice based or bean based?

You have inspired me to try onion rings again!! I used some pancake mix and some club soda to make the batter....OMG they were so yummy!

Guhlia Rising Star

Melissa, so glad you were able to enjoy onion rings again.. Well worth the work, huh? :)

Kolka, I'm not sure which pancake recipe I used. Use a regular recipe and sub a white rice flour blend for the all-purpose flour: 3 parts white rice, 2 parts potato starch, 1 part tapioca starch... I add 1 tsp xantham gum per 1 to 1-1/2 cups flour. This always works out wonderfully for me. I use Kinnikinnick flours, they seem to be the least grainy in texture.

mroper Rookie

I just used the mix form GFP!

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.
