Best Baking Yet

Just needed to share my success with everyone. I have been trying for muffins that are light and fluffy, not gritty and not lacking in taste. I have made batch after batch after batch and just didn't get any satisfaction.

Today I decided to make healthy fruit muffins for my nephews. I used regular flour for the ones I made the kids. They smelled so good so I repeated the recipe with sorghum flour mixed with tapioca flour, corn starch, rice flour and xantham gum.

I didn't even measure and I just added stuff as I went so trying to repeat the same recipe over was a task to say the least but it turned out to be the best baking I ever did and this time I did write the recipe down and it is low in fat also. The best thing is that the muffins don't taste gluten free. I just call them fruit muffins so here is the recipe

Kelly's low-fat fruit muffins

1/2 cup apple sauce - unsweetened

2 bananas

1 jar blueberry baby food

2 tablespoons of butter

4 egg whites

2/3 cup of sugar or splenda

1 tsp of baking soda

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup of rice flour

1 tsp xantham gum

1 cup of my favorite flour mix

My FAVORITE FLOUR MIX

sorghum flour - 3 cups

potato starch - 3 cups

tapioca flour - 2 cups

corn flour - 1 cup

I add the rice flour separately mainly because it was a last minute thing. I had been having a hard time getting my muffins to come out really good. At the last minute I decided to add only 1 cup of my favorite flour mix instead of 1 and 1/2 cups. I added 1/2 a cup of rice flour just for a switch. I think that change along with the fact that I used a lot of pureed fruit really made the muffins come out great.

They taste like banana bread, if one was looking for straight banana bread I imagine you could use the same recipe just add 2 or 3 more bananas instead of the blueberry baby food and the apple sauce. I however am going to try this recipe again with banana baby food and banana apple sauce, I bet they turn out good.

Hope others are having as much luck as I am. Today my entire day was made when I opened the oven and found that my muffins weren't sunk in, in the middle.

Happy baking!!!

Kelly

Hi Kelly, these sound wonderful but I don't have any corn flour. I only have sorn starch. Would this work you think?? :unsure:

I wouldn't substitute a starch for a flour. You could probably just add the rice flour instead of the corn flour or even potato flour or extra sorghum flour. You could also use millet flour or soy flour. I wouldn't use a starch though. Just my opinion.

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
