Recommend A Really Great gluten-free Dessert?

Can anyone recommend a really great gluten-free dessert that the normal gluten eating population would love? I have to bring a dessert to a party. My normal standby awsome dessert is a flourless choclate cake, but this dessert has to be chocolate free.

Any thoughts?

If you can find it my favorite is Gluten-Free Pantry's Angel Food Cake mix. Especially if you have a big stand mixer. I think it is exactly like a gluteny angel food cake. Love it.

Open Original Shared Link is my favorite desert of all time. I haven't made it since going gluten-free but I suspect even with the normal brands I was using it is already gluten free. If not, it would be easy to substitute a gluten-free brand for any gluten containing item in this list.

A couple of warnings however. This is not a desert you make and take. This has to be made on site and eating immediately. Also, the there are not enough digits on your calorie counter to count the calories in this thing!

If you can get your hands on a bag of the Gluten Free Pantry truffle brownie mix. That is a crowd pleaser and non-celiac enjoy it as much if not more than we do.

APPLE CRISP

10 Apple peeled and diced

1 cup of brown sugar

3 tbsp of cinnamon

1 box of Enjoy life - Cinnamon cluster cereal ( not sure if that is the right name but they only have the 3 choices of cereal and the cinnamon one is the one you need.

Mix apple, sugar and cinnamon and put in a casserole dish.

Crush the cereal into smaller peices, mix with 1 tsp on cinnamon and 1/4 cup of brown sugar and sprinke over the top of the apple mixture.

BAKE 350 for about 30-45 minutes.

If you want it low fat you can use sugar free brown sugar splenda.

I like it and most people I fed it to liked it and didn't know it was fat free or gluten free so I think it is good.

People who don't have a lactose problem will eat it with ice cream or whip cream. I eat it just plain.

Good luck

Strawberries are in season here! How a strawberry pavlova? It's a meringue crust spread with real whipped cream and piled high with lush, beautiful berries. It's delicious and naturally gluten-free.

Thanks everyone. I just bought the gluten-free Pantry angel food cake mix. And the Pavlova sounds AMAZING. I like the fact that it is a traditional dessert, so it should be great no matter what!

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.
