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.

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!

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
