Gluten Free Pan Muffins Gobbled Up

We had our first ever block party for our street on Sat. and everyone gathered in the cul-de-sac in front of our house. I knew I would not be able to eat anything anyone brought because I would not be able to check the labels, blah, blah. So I take apple spice/walnut mini muffins with cream cheese coconut frosting. I had to stop my DH from eating them all before we took them outside but he's used to eating almost totally gluten free himself. Well the muffins were a huge hit, not only with the adults in the group but with the kids as well. They wanted to know where I got them......lol! I told them I baked them and they looked shocked - guess theirs moms aren't big bakers. I was the only person to bring homemade baked goods. Anyway, eventually some people got around to asking questions about why I wasn't eating the other stuff and Celiac and gluten came up and I was able to educate a few people but many of them knew someone with Celiac. It was pretty cool so if you get a chance to talk about gluten and Celiac I think you could help someone without even knowing at the time.

Congratulations! It always feels good when non-Celiac's enjoy anything you've made that is gluten-free. I'd love the recipe for your muffins/frosting if you care to share it. They sound yummy!

It was just the 123 Gluten Free pan bar mix made in a mini muffin pan (plus another small rectangle baking pan as it makes a lot). I added the walnuts and a little extra cinnamon and cloves to bump up the spices. For the frosting I used cream cheese and some powdered sugar and coconut flakes but to make a glaze consistency, I added some agave syrup as well. I did the frosting by taste - no measurements - sorry. It is really fun when gluten eaters gobble up gluten free goodies but they usually won't touch them if you put a 'gluten free' sign with them...lol!

Hi all

Thanks for the recipe it sounds delicious. I cannot wait. The entire family is trying to be gluten free. This is very hard especially with three kids. Any recipe like this one is most welcome.

Thanks for the posting.

Thanks, Floridanative--they sound great.

Pedro, I just posted a bunch of kid-friendly recipes on the baking thread--cookies, cakes, muffins, etc. Check them out, I haven't tried a bad one yet!

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      I think I am gluten intolerant

      By ElenaM · Posted

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!
