Pamela's Baking Mix

Recommended Posts

Can the Pamela's mix be used like you would Bisquick? I looked on the Pamelas website and they have recipes for waffles, pie crusts, biscuits, that kind of thing, but I'm wondering if it can be used in main dish meals. I've never used Bisquick before but I know there are lots of recipes out there for things like cheeseburger pie, ect. Anyone have any ideas on how to sub the Pamelas mix for the Bisquick? Thanks!

I haven't noticed this mix here in Dallas at the stores I've been going to. Haven't used any mixes yet, I've been making my own flour blends (for bread, muffins, pancakes), but I'm definately going to need to purchase or make one for chicken & dumplings. I used jiffy mix (like bisquick) to make the dumplings BC (before celiac). lm

I love Pamelas mix but it is very expensive- The best place I have found is amazon .com. saves dollars per bag....

Hi

We use Pamela's so much we buy it in bulk. My mother uses it to make great cobler toppings. I used it recently to make graham crakers.

I have been using Pamela's baking mix with mostly wonderful results. I substitute it cup for cup in many recipes. It makes especially wonderful waffles. I have made numerous cookies using the mix, even cut-outs that were as good as using wheat flour.

A few questions for anyone who has used it...does anyone know the ratio of ingredients in the mix, I'd like to make my own. And how can it be purchased in bulk? Thanks for the help!

And how can it be purchased in bulk?

I have only found it in multi packs at amazon .com. I believe it comes 6 packages to a case.

I have seen it recently in a 4 pound bag in a health food store in cheyenne WY so I am hoping to be able to find it online soon as well.

also my hubby says the pancakes taste almost as good as my "from stratch" ones did in "my life before"

Hey are you guys talking about the pancake mix or the bread mix? I like the breadmix because it's free of a lot of allergens. The pancake mix has buttermilk :( Has anyone used the bread mix to make pancakes though?

You can get the four-pound bag on amazon right now. Here's the link: Open Original Shared Link .com/Pancake-Baking-Wheat...9295&sr=8-2

I love this stuff and substitute it in all my old wheat recipes. The only thing it really hasn't worked in was my Sprinkles Bakery cupcake recipe. They sunk in the middle. I'm sure I can tweak it with added leavening.

the link wont open for me.

I am really interested in buying this, it sounds perfect, thanks for telling me about this. I just bought rice flour mix from an online store, but this stuff sounds better.

Hmm, I can't get the link to work, but if you go to amazon .com and search for pamelas mix, it will come up on the first page.

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @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?

      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.
