Arrowhead Mills Pancake Mix

Hi everyone!

O.k....here's my problem: I usually don't buy any pre-mixed flours, convenience food, etc. (Mainly because of financial reasons). I cook by recipes, etc. Well, I purchased Arrowhead Mills Pancake and baking mix this week. (I've been craving good pancakes and can't seem to make them). Anyway, these pancakes did not turn out yummy at all. :huh:

Does anyone have any suggestions for what I can do with the rest of the mix? I certainly won't be making any more pancakes, but surely there is some kind of other use for this mix. I'm not throwing it away.

So...you guys are so helpful and creative, I thought maybe you could offer some alternative recipes besides just pancakes and/or muffins.

Thanks so much! -Julie :)

Julie,

I think that Angie makes fried onion rings with pancake batter. Her picture looked wonderful. It's on my to do list.

I also use it to make a batter for frying, we fried a batch of Calamari with onions and brocoli it was delicious,

Mix one cup of the arrowhead mills

1/4 cup parmesian

1/2 tsp garlic or 2 cloves crushed

1 egg

1/2 cup water added a tbsp at a time until batter is smooth, but not runny

What a great idea! I do batter and deep fry a couple of times a month (I received the easiest deep fryer for Christmas, and I really enjoy using it). My hubby and I buy frozen unbattered okra and squash and deep fry it using my own simple gluten-free batter. UMMMM, tasty! :) I'm going to try the onion rings and batter ingredients suggested. Thank you both! B)

Any other suggestions? I LOVE new ideas!

I think it makes really tasty muffins, but I also really really really love the pancakes it makes. If you make muffins with it and add in some extra ingredients (carrots, apples, chocolate chips...whatever) you could probably find a way to make it good.

I have a great recipe for pancakes if you can tolerate dairy.

1 Cup white rice flour

1/3 cup coconut flour

2 Tbs. potato starch

1 Tbs. baking powder

1 Tbs. sugar

2 Tbs. oil

2 eggs

1.5 cups of buttermilk (I am sure almond or soy milk can be subbed here, but haven't tried it)

mix together dry ingredients ina bowl. Add oil, eggs and buttermilk blending with a whip until just blemneded. Texture will be a little fluffy and thick. Pour on to medium griddle and cook.

If you like the taste of coconut, I use coconut oil in the pan instead of cooking spray. Yummy!

Kat.

What I've done with pancake mix that my daughter didn't care for too much was doctor it up with whatever I had around the house. Chopped apples and cinnamon works really well. Or canned corn for corn cakes. The texture will still probably be off, but she will just drown them in syrup and eat them.

I know this wasn't exacty what you are looking for...but...my hubby loves the pancakes I make out of the Pamela's mix. It's the only one he will eat. And they are really easy - only 4 ingredients.

Good luck.

Wow! Thanks everyone. I've been craving some pancakes, and the kind that my mom made were very thin and not too "bready." I will definitely give your advice a try!

Many thanks. -Julie :)

Julie,

I make the Gluten Free Pantry pancakes with vanilla almond milk and fresh blueberries. They are the best pancakes I've ever had--gluten or not. My husband, who can eat anything thinks so too.

I usually use mixes like that to make pan-fried chicken, or you could use it to make oven-fried chicken. I just add lemon pepper and garlic and my boyfriend LOVES it...... Or you could maybe try a waffle iron?

Thanks for the suggestion! I rarely buy premade mixes because of the expense, but occasionally our local Kroger will put them on sale (say, if they will expire soon) and I will get them then. So, it's good to know what to do with any extra mix I may have left over!

Happy Baking. -Julie

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      Ibuprofen

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.
