Has anyone tried this? It seems they have 2 varieties that are gluten free. One that says Wild Rice pancake mix on the package and the other just says Gluten Free Pancake Mix on the package. I'm inquiring about the one that says gluten-free on the package.

I tried Pamela's when I was first diagnosed and hated it; and pretty much resigned to never having pancakes again. But someone was telling me about this yesterday.

HI I just tried the arrowhead gluten-free pancake mix for the first time last week. It was very thick, and heavy, and I am not the greatest cook, but they give you lots of different choices on how to make it. Like I used milk, next time I will try to use water instead. My daughter said they were pretty good, but we are new to this. good luck.

Ps. if you call or emailthem, they will send you coupons. :D

I've tried Arrowhead Pancake Mix and was not thrilled in the least with this product. I was newly diagnosed at the time and was highly disappointed in the results. I thought I'd never again enjoy pancakes, but have since have found out "if at first you don't succeed..."

Bob's Red Mill makes a pretty darn good pancake mix. Give it a try, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I haven't tried their pancake mix, but I made pancakes fron their baking mix, and they tasted like cardboard.

We love the Gluten Free Pantry pancake mix :)

I've never tried Arrowhead Mills pancake mix. However, we use Maple Grove Farms and it's very good. They are light and have a nice, sweet flavor. Just make sure you don't flip them over too soon as they will fall apart. (Their syrup is also very good.)

I LOVE Arrowhead Mills pankcake mix! I add rice milk, honey and egg, and it is so good! I've never bothered to try any other brand of gluten-free pancakes because I like it so much :D

I didn't end up trying it. I'm actually now thinking of trying the one by Authentic Foods. But Bob's RM seems to be getting a lot of thumbs up... hmmmmm.

Is anyone finding it as funny (and kinda pathetic) as me that I've now spent a week and a half debating about pancake mix?!! ;)

LOL - I know!!! I think this may need to be added to the "you know you're a celiac if" list. ;)

I just tried Bob's and they were really good. My kids even ate them. My husband raved about them - which I thought was odd - they were good, but not your typical pancake. He grew up on a farm though, and they have a much heavier kind of corn feel to them. He doesn't have to be gluten free - but is enjoying all of the meat, potatos, veggies and cornmeal type foods I'm leaning towards :)

THey actually freeze really well too. I put some in the freezer and will pull them out and microwave them for about 45 seconds. Taste the same as they did first time around :)

Well none of them are like the real thing anymore, especially if you can't mix them with cow's milk. I Have tried a few diff kinds, and found that rice milk and adding maple syrup and a bit of vanilla extract to any batter just makes it taste better :) even my kid will eat it!

HATE Arrowhead! Gross! just not light and fluffy. Sorry my only recommendation is Pamela's. I LOVE them. They are light and fluffy. My sister in law and her grandchildren went out and bought the mix after I served them for Christmas Brunch.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result. I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned? Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease...

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especia...

      nothing has changed

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can t...

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
