My Mom always buys the Namaste brand spice cake mix, and makes it into a carrot cake with raisins and cream cheese frosting. It's good, and it freezes well, too (she makes the mini-loaves so I can always have something handy).

What a great-looking recipe. Can't wait to try it..... I miss carrot cake, too.

I know you weren't thinking of mixes, but I have to echo Ang's recommendation. The Namaste spice cake has the carrot cake variation right on the bag and it is beyond awesome! I too added raisins, plus walnuts, and used plain ol' Pillsbury cream cheese frosting. Heaven.

I have made this a few times. I use Pamela's Baking Mix, which already has Xanthan gum. I would think you could also use Featherlite or some other flour mix and then add 1 tsp Xanthan gum.

This makes one layer - double for a two-layer cake or 9 X 13 (a 9 X 13 takes about 45 - 50 minutes to bake). Also, I just buy the frosting (read labels) but I have a recipe (at home) for frosting - it takes cream cheese, butter, vanilla and powdered sugar. If you want I can post it as well.

Carrot Cake

1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 eggs

1/2 cup sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

pinch of salt

2/3 cup Pamela's Baking mix

1 cup shredded carrots

mix ingredients well, then add carrots

bake in greased 8-inch round

350 F for approximately 30 minutes

toothpick should come out clean

cool and frost with

Cream Cheese Frosting

      Rectal pain

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this. I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      At a family wedding in Italy last year I was drinking gluten free Peroni which was fine for me. From the Daura Damn website ... " Our guarantee less than 3ppm: each batch is analyzed and certified by the CSIC using the R5 Competitive ELISA test before hitting the market. This way, we ensure that its gluten content is always below 3ppm "

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead...

      Gluten free nuts

      Thank you for all the excellent information. I moved from Wyoming to California. May be its where I am located but So far none of the Costco Kirkland brand I have looked at is labeled gluten free. Same with the Sam's Members Mark. The Kirkland nuts you mention all say they are processed in a plant that processes wheat. I am going to keep checking. Thank...

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this.  I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure down there perhaps added pressure to already sensitised pelvic and rectal muscles. Coeliacs can suffer from bloating when they are first diagnosed due to the inability to digest food properly.  Lactose for me caused a lot of bloating and when I came off it temporarily after diagnosis it helped reduce bloating.  Iron supplements and the timing of taking them also caused discomfort and I had to experiment a bit with type and timing before my gut felt comfortable.   Maybe something to think about?   Some coeliacs suffer from constipation - again, just a thought, but perhaps if you had issues with that it might be a contributor.

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer  support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead are offering supplements for your symptoms. This has helped you but you are not able to work very much.  The Programs I have seen  online usually have 3 parts. The first is a Parasite cleanse. The 2nd is the Kidney cleanse and the  3rd is a Liver cleanse and gallbladder cleanse. You need to doall these cleanses to have your whole body functioning well. I can only reccommend the program I gave you because that is the one I used and still do. (drclark.net)  When I see a newprovider and tell I have Celiacs and they look skeptical I tell them that when I am gluttoned the reaction happens 8 or more hours later with intestinal painful cramping followed by diarrhea. Providers are willing to accept tha I probably have Celiacs and are more likely order tests such as vitamin levels. Is this what happens if you eat only a small amount of Gluten? You mentioned going to Mayors. 20 years ago many Dr.s wanted to include a celiac screening as a standard test so that more people eould diagnosed and not become disabled. It did not happen but the Federal levgislature did pass a law so that Celiacs could claim deductions for the gluten free food they bought. What were you going to ask the Mayors to do?
