I Made A Huge Mistake!

Last week, I bought a couple of mixes from the Gluten Free pantry because I had heard so many good things about them on here. So I got the sandwich bread mix and the muffin mix. I tried out the bread mix a few days ago, and the whole family LOVED it. Then this morning I tried out the muffin mix and made blueberry muffins w/ struedel on top. They were amazing.

The problem is, I CANT AFFORD THESE MIXES!! And now I want them all the time. I don't want to go back to making things from scratch :( .

So does anyone have a recipe that is equivelant to these mixes????? PLEASE!!! I just cant afford to pay $5 for 1 loaf of bread. But I LOVE the taste.

Well, I haven't tried those, but I might try to approximate the recipe by using logical proportions of the ingredients they have on the package. Also taking note of the color, aroma, etc, while adding things, and attempt to match the original.

What may help is to bake a small amount of the mix like a cookie, for a reference. Then as you tweak your own blend, bake a similar cookie to see how it compares. This might waste some ingredients before you get the blend right, but once it's done you'd have the recipe forever.

I've seen many recipes come up in Google which emulate name brand products, so perhaps someone has already done the work and posted the recipe.

I make up flour mixes in big containers so I don't have to measure out six different kinds of flour each time I bake. That has increased my baking efficiency a lot.

You could try buying them from amazon .com. You have to buy by the case, but the prices are better.

Annalise Roberts' Gluten-Free Baking Classics, IMO, is as good as these recipes. SOme of her recipes are on her website, which I think is www.foodphilosopher.com

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
