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!

      Oral thrush question

      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...

      Oral thrush question

      Hi @JulieRe. I just found your post. It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida. I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment. In the meantime, I have been working with a functional...

      Advice while waiting for testing

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct r...

      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.

      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.

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:
