Hi everyone,

O.k....I know donuts are not nutritious, and I have a recipe for baked gluten-free donuts. But I want to go all the way, as high fat and calorie as I can get......I want 'um FRIED. :P I would also like them not to be too "bready."

So, anyone out there with a sweet tooth like me and a recipe to satisfy my VERY unhealthy craving?

Thanks in advance! -Julie :)

I've tried the recipe on this site....turned out great. I adapted a little b/c I didn't have some of the ing. Even my kids loved them. They were more "cake" like donuts and I did them has holes instead of whole donuts. :)

I tried these recipes and thought they were fablulous. We liked the donuts better than the jelly donuts because most of the jelly oozed out while frying. However, the recipe is simple to make, they roll out well and taste just like the old fashioned home-made donuts my mom used to make. We put powdered sugar on some and cinnamon sugar on some. Next time, I am going to make a chocolate glaze to put on some. I also took some plain donuts and froze them and when my DD wanted one, I just nuked it for a few seconds and then put the sugar on. They froze really well which is good since the recipe makes a lot.

P.S. I am not good with attaching links, so if these don't work, just go to www.recipezaar and search for gluten free donuts.

Thank you so much for the recipe and links! I've purchased 2 types of Kinnikinnick's donuts and wasn't that impressed. I'm not sure I'll do any better, but I've already got the ingredients on-hand so at least it'll be cheaper! ;)

Question though: what is caster sugar? Is it easy to find? Thanks again. :)

Caster sugar is just superfine white sugar. That is what it is called in the UK and it's more common there than here in the States. It is best used for baking because it blends well with the other ingredients and tends to give a more bakery like product. It can be found in Whole Foods Market but many mainstream grocery stores may have it.

Thank you, Gemini, for clearing that up for me. B)

My husband is at the store now...I'll call him! (the beauty of technology) ;)

Julie,

Would like to have your recipe for baked donuts; none that I have tried have been edible. We miss donuts, but would like to keep down the calories (ha!). Thanks!

HA! How funny...that's me...eating donuts and drinking a Diet Coke in order to "keep down the calories." :P

I'll be glad to post the recipe. Give me 'til tomorrow. I think the recipe is in Carol Fenster's cookbook. When I go downstairs to cook dinner, I'll find it. :)

Happy cooking. -Julie

I hear what you're saying about Kinnikinnick donuts. But I eat them anyway to fill that void :)

However, I tried some killer...most suspiciously real tasting donuts (donut holes actually) from celiacspecialties.com. I had blueberry, chocolate, glazed, powerdered sugar...I'm dying. They had the texture of what I remember real donuts being.

I love those donuts too! Just so pricey, they are $8 at the gluten free store. I am pretty easy to please as well, some fruit salad, brownies, and a gift card to Wegmans and I am set.

Hi ladies,

I will have to give those donuts a try! Currently, I'm flat-butt broke, but when/if our house ever sells, I'll be able to "splurge" a little again. Oh, well....a woman can dream.

(currently craving donuts, but afraid to try to make them after this weeks pretzel blowout) :rolleyes:

The Polish make a great potato donut...when I was trying to figure out why donuts didn't bother me all the time someone suggested they may have been potato donuts.

I work pretty close to Hamtramk the Polish capital of the US and there are tons of Polish bakeries around Michigan so that might have been it. I'm going to try to dig some recipes up. Several people commented about them and how great they were.

Just to throw this up for those who want some doughnuts...I just tried the Kinnikinnick Vanilla iced doughnuts. They are super yummy, and remind me what doughnuts SHOULD taste like, instead of the puffy grocery store version. Yummy!

This is a recipe that has been in my family as long as I can remember. My mom's grandmother used to make these. They are really quite good with regular flour, but I'm sure you could substitute gluten free flour as well. We usually eat them plain and the children tend to top with powdered sugar. I'm also sure you could put a glazed icing over them.....(More of a nutmeg flavor than regular donut taste)

Old Fashioned Donuts

Ingredients:

1 egg

1 serving spoon sugar

1 tablespoon milk

½ teaspoon vanilla

½ teaspoon nutmeg

1 cup flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

Directions:

Beat egg and add sugar, milk, vanilla and nutmeg.

Mix well. Add flour and baking powder.

Work into a firm ball. Roll out dough to about

1/8 inch thick. Cut into diagonal triangles

and cut 1 inch slit in center. Deep fry

donut until golden brown. Recipe will make

about 15 donuts. Recipe could

be duplicated several times to make more.

Can be sprinkled with powdered sugar

Enjoy!

      Covid caused reoccurrence of DH without eating gluten

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
