MEEEE TOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Damn Italians and their Easter bread! (lol - that is how I got my hips and thighs - lol!)

PLEASE post the challah recipe on here if you can! I will slap some almond-flavored icing and colored coconut on it and see if it works!

They are copywrited recipies from a book that is still being sold in bookstores so I'm not comfortable posting them. Maybe there's some other way ? Also your local library might have them. I've found several gluten-free cookbooks at mine.

Thanks for your efforts. I have just found a recipe that I will try to convert to gluten-free Flour., using a bread machine. Will share if it works. Until then, anyone else got a thought? I did make a great cherry cobbler last nite, and Wedding Soup.

Trying again to post this easter bread recipe. What a treat for husband to have toasted easter bread with lots of butter this a.m. Am satified that this recipe works. To find it , go to recipezaar.co and type in88299 in search box. then make the changes I am adding here. The basic recipe is just the same as my mother -in-law's except hers made six loaves instead of one. The bread is the courser, denser rustic style, not the "americanized version " that is now popular. It smells, looks and taste like the real thing. The only problem I had was that I baked it too long. Will correct next time.

Changes to the recipe.

Add juice of 1/2 lemon and 1/2 orange

zest of 1/2 lemon

zest of whole orange

1 tab/ pure anise flavoring

remove gluten (no brainer)

add 2.5 tsp of xanthum gum

increase yeast to 2 tsp.

I mixed the flavoring and zest in the liquids

I also melted the butter. (can you add it not melted in a bread machine?)

Flour mix

1cup brown rice flour

1 cup of white rice flour

1/2 cup of sweet rice flour

1/4 cup of Pot starch

1/4 Corn starch

1/ 4 cuo Tapi flour

1/4 cup of sorghum Flour

feel free to tinker with this. I would appreciate your critique. Am always willing to learn from others.

Hope you enjoy this and Happy Holidays to all

Thanks to miisy's Mom for the tech support.

In Europe there is an Italian company called Schar that makes really good gluten-free products.

You can find a recipe from their site for an Italian Easter Cake:

Open Original Shared Link

I have not tried this recipe but I looked on the box of "Mix C" and the ingredients are:

Corn Starch, Corn Flour, thickerner, locust bean gum - I was suprised of the ingredients b/c the mix is very light and fluffy. I am not sure what the measurments are but I cant see why you could not substitute a Pamelas Mix or one of your favorites.

I use this mix alot for Crepes that turn out fantastic!!!

Good Luck

It's been a tradition in my family for years! I wish I could find a recipe or a bakery that makes it.

If you don't find a good recipe, you can try to make mine, if you want to braid the bread use this:

https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/84873-simonas-braided-challah/page__st__75__gopid__785727#entry785727

Please read all tread! Specially my last post.

For the Italian bread cut the recipe in half, or make two at once, if you can (it will bake better).

I will make it today for Easter.

Or

This:

https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/85650-gluten-free-sandwich-bread/ , if you prefer softer bread. You can't braid with this dough, but you can use round pan with the hall in middle (like for bundt cake). Add 1 1/2 Tbsp. of sugar.

Bake them for 60-65 minutes, otherwise they will sink.

ok, sorry this is late. i wanted to make this at easter but forgot to get the gelatin. (plus, i didn't want to be so committed in case it turned out not so good) so i made it this week, and iced it with a simple vanilla icing (powdered sugar, butter, milk/water, vanilla extract) and sprinkled it with colorful sprinkles. i can not stop eating it. it SMELLS like a bakery..... mmmmmm......

      Newly diagnosed mam to coeliac 11 year old

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx

      Severe severe mouth pain

      By Russ H · Posted

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting in the mouth corners, and dry mouth to name but some. The link below is for paediatric dentistry but it applies to adults too.  Have you had follow up for you coeliac disease to check that your anti-tTG2 antibodies levels have come down? Are you certain that you not being exposed to significant amounts of gluten? Are you taking a PPI for your Barrett's oesophagus? Signs of changes to the tongue can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, particularly iron, B12 and B9 (folate) deficiency. I would make sure to take a good quality multivitamin every day and make sure to take it with vitamin C containing food - orange juice, broccoli, cabbage etc.  Sebaceous hyperplasia is common in older men and I can't find a link to coeliac disease.   Russ.   Oral Manifestations in Pediatric Patients with Coeliac Disease – A Review Article
