One More "your Favorite" Question-pancake Mix?

My older girls are new to the gluten free diet and disappointed that they can't have Grandma's pancakes or French toast this weekend when they visit. Is there a good baking mix or pancake mix I can pickup for her to use? I was looking at Namaste, but am open to any suggestions.

Namaste is my preference - made with almond milk. Even my "doesn't like gluten-free flours" husband enjoys the pancakes.

Namaste also gets my vote. I fed them to my whole family (not gluten-free people) over christmas break and they liked them!!

We use Kinnickinnick pancake and waffle mix. Everyone loves them! I use it more for waffles cause then I can freeze them and kids can pop a waffle in at breakfast.

We also used this mix at a scout camp - thought it safest to make gluten free pancakes for everyone... to avoid cc... all the kids said they tasted better than their moms! :)

Me too :P I use club soda for the liquid, my dad couldn't tell the difference when he was here. He just about flipped when I sat down and grabbed some pancakes :lol:

The Gluten Free Pantry! Sometimes, my non-gluten-free husband and I have them for dinner with bacon or ham. We both love them :)

When I have them, which isn't often, I like Pamela's. But I have only tried Pamela's and some other one, and I can't remember the name of the other one, but it was dense, so I went back to Pamela's.

I make my husband Pamela's - I think it tastes the best. Unfortunately, I can't eat it anymore because of the xanthan gum, but it doesn't make me sick to make it for him.

I used Guhlia's waffle recipe yesterday and we LOVED those. So if you're looking for waffles....

Back when I could have dairy, I did enjoy the Pamela's mix. Those were good. (They have buttermilk powder.)

Looks like you've gotten plenty of pancake suggestions, so I'll address the French Toast dilemma. If you buy a loaf of Ener-G Foods Light Tapioca Bread you (or Grandma) can make delicious French Toast using the same recipe as "normal". My gluten eating kids actually prefer it to "regular".

I'm going to chime in with Pamela's. I have non-gluten-free friends who buy it now just cause it tastes so good. I think its the almond flour that does it for me. I'm very much a small griddle cake pancake type person, and these are perfect for that.

Yes, Pamela's are excellent as well, unfortunately we can't get them here, and I hate paying shipping costs. :(

Oh man, you do *not* want to know what I paid for shipping for 30 pounds of Namaste pancake mix. Ouch!

My favorite is the Really Great Food Co. also, but b/c I can't find it here and shipping is so expensive, I usually use Pamela's (not as fluffy though). I order Pamela's in bulk from amazon - very cheap!

Lonewolf, funny you mention the french toast - I orderd the energ light tapioca bread from amazon and since it comes in a box with 6 loaves, I made french toast one morning and my husband and I ate THE WHOLE LOAF all by ourselves in one sitting! It was so good and I haven't had french toast in so long!

We love Mona's pancake mix (plus her other mixes). 2nd. is Pamela's. For french toast we use challah bread from Mr. Ritts and or Everybody Eats... and then there is bagels from Joan's gluten-free great bakes that are better then gluten ones......

      Fiber Supplement

      Another great fiber option is dried apricots. Four of them give you 3g of fiber and I find they don't produce all the gas that some other high fiber options do. They taste good too. Costco sells a large bag of them that are labeled gluten-free so you don't have to worry about cross contamination issues like you might in bulk grocery settings.

      Wow, that's alot of info, Thanks!!!! I had my intake with Nutrionist where we went over basics and then will have follow up where we will talk about all the questions I've come up with (including the fiber question and so many more). I'll talk to her about the info you provided as well. Thanks again (newbie here 😀)

      Is this celiac?

      Hello again. Thank you for the responses to date. I have had several follow-ups and wanted to share what I’ve learned. About a month after my initial blood test and going gluten free, my TtG went from 8.1 to 1.8. I have learned that my copper is low and my B6 is high. My other vitamins and nutrients are more or less in range. After I glutened myself on 1...

      Fiber Supplement

      @Trish G, I like dates, they have lots if fiber as well. But what I found helped most was taking Thiamine (in the form Benfotiamine which helps promote intestinal healing), Pyridoxine B 6, Riboflavin B 2, and magnesium, and Omega Three fats. The absorption of nutrients is affected by Celiac disease which damages the intestinal lining of the small...

      Hello again. Thank you for the responses to date. I have had several follow-ups and wanted to share what I’ve learned. About a month after my initial blood test and going gluten free, my TtG went from 8.1 to 1.8. I have learned that my copper is low and my B6 is high. My other vitamins and nutrients are more or less in range. After I glutened myself on 10/24, I have been strict about being gluten free - so about a month. I have been eating dairy free and low FODMAP as well because it’s what my stomach allows. Baked fish, potatoes, rice, etc. Whole foods and limited Whole foods. I have continued to lose weight but it has slowed down, but a total of about 15 pounds since I went gluten free. Along with stomach pain, my symptoms included nausea, body and joint pain, a burning sensation throughout my body and heart rate spikes. I still have them but I have them less now. These are the symptoms that led to my doctor appointments and subsequent diagnosis. I also did the DNA screening and was positive. So, at this point, the answer is yes, I have celiac. I have two questions for this group. Any ideas on why my enteropathy was so severe (marsh 3B) and my TtG was so minimal? Is that common? Or are there other things to consider with that combo? And this recovery, still having pain and other symptoms a month later (7 weeks gluten free and 4 weeks after the glutening) normal? I’m going to continue down this path of bland foods and trying to heal but would love to understand the reasons for the long journey. I read so much about people who stop eating gluten and feel amazing. I wish that was my experience but it certainly hasn’t been. Thank you again!

      @Trish G,  I like dates, they have lots if fiber as well.  But what I found helped most was taking Thiamine (in the form Benfotiamine which helps promote intestinal healing), Pyridoxine B 6, Riboflavin B 2, and magnesium, and Omega Three fats. The absorption of nutrients is affected by Celiac disease which damages the intestinal lining of the small intestines where our nutrients are absorbed.  If you have constipation, where your body is rather pushing your food away and not interacting with it, the nutrients in the food are not being released and absorbed.  You can develop deficiencies in all the vitamins and minerals necessary for the body to function properly.   The B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished daily.  Thiamine B 1 stores can run out in as little as three days.  Constipation (or diarrhea or alternating) is one of the first symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Thiamine needs magnesium, Pyridoxine B 6, and Riboflavin B 2 to make the intestinal tract function.  Thiamine and Niacin make digestive enzymes.  Thiamine provides the energy for nerve impulses to carry messages to the brain and back about digestion.  Thiamine provides the energy for the muscle contractions which move your food through the digestive tract. High calorie meals containing lots of starches and sugars can deplete thiamine stores quickly because more thiamine is required to turn them into energy.   Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements?  Correction of malnutrition is very important in Celiac disease.  Thiamine, the other B vitamins and magnesium will help with constipation better than adding more fiber.  What did your nutritionist recommend you take, besides just the fiber?
