Super Easy Strawberry Shortcake

Hi!

This is a very strange sounding recipe and I had my reservations but alas it was as tastey as it was easy. You will most likely have all the ingredients in your house. GFers and non-GFers alike loved it.

The recipe is from recipe zaar and is as follows. Enjoy!

1/2 cup butter

1 cup icing sugar (confectioners/powdered)

4 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup cornstarch

1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 12-muffin pan (or use liners).

In a large bowl cream butter and sugar, using electric mixer.

Add the eggs and vanilla. Beat until light and fluffy.

In a small bowl mix the cornstarch and baking powder together and add slowly to the creamed mixture. (If added too quickly, it will fly about the kitchen.).

Mix until well blended.

Fill the greased muffin tins half full.

Bake for 15 minutes. (Test with a toothpick, after 15 minutes, even if the top looks shiny).

Remove from the pan while still warm. (They will look like little cupcakes.But trust me they will taste just like little shortcakes).

Serve topped with strawberries, and whipped cream.

I'm also going to make them tonight!! Did you put cool whip on top or just leave the strawberries as the only topping?

Hi!

I hope those of you trying this tonight enjoy it!! We put whipped cream on top of the strawberries. I am sure any topping would be great - cool whip, whipped cream, etc.

I think this would be good with any kind of fruit too. My son (who actually does not have celiac and is very picky re: gluten-free food) at 4 of the muffins with butter and jam in one sitting.

Have fun!

Hi,

You are right, they are Very tasty !! I just made them.

I have a recipe that calls for angel food cake cut up and comstock blueberry filling and comstock strawberry filling, powdered sugar, cream cheese and cool whip and vanilla. You mix the cut up pieces of angel food cake (which I think these litte short cakes would be wonderful in) with the powdered sugar, cream cheese, vanilla and coolwhip, and then you layer in the blueberry and strawberry filling. I always make this on the 4th of July or when my family feels like having it. I will use you little short cakes in it from now on.

If anyone would like the recipe let me know and I will post it.

Thanks again

Sue

Hi!

Here's another really fun idea . . . I made these little shortcakes again tonight (soooo easy!). I filled half of the muffin tins with the batter, then to the remaining batter I added cocoa powder. I filled the other half of the cups with the chocolatate mix and then I added a little choc. batter to a couple of the vanilla ones for a marbled effect. So we ended up with three different kinds of cakes.

All came out great and I have very happy kids! I'm thinking the chocolate ones would be good with vanilla icecream and toppings.

Hey,

great picture . . . making me hungry! Try 'em in chocolate next. We sliced them into round disks and made like little woopie pies by putting whipped cream between two disks. Yum!

Very strange but delicious recipe!

      Low tTG IgA and IgG - I'm so confused...

      Low tTG IgA and IgG - I'm so confused...

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Soosieque! Immunoglubulin A, Qn, Serum (aka, "total IGA") is a test run to check for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, the other IGA tests (the ones ordered to specifically check for celiac disease) will give artificially low scores and cannot be trusted. You were not IGA deficient. The two tests specifically run to check for celiac disease in your case were IGA (short for tTG-IGA) and IgG. So, one of the two tests specifically run for celiac disease was an IGA test (and it looks to be negative from the low score) and the other was an IgG test. So, it does not look like you have celiac disease from the limited testing you have had done. There are other tests that could have been run, however, and if you were already on a gluten-free diet or a low gluten diet when the testing was done then the testing is invalid. Here is a primer on blood antibody testing for celiac disease:    There is also the possibility that you suffer from NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) rather than celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms but NCGS is 10x more common. NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel, however. Hope this helps.

      celiac, chocolate and alcohol

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @barb simkin! How does it affect you when you eat chocolate and drink alcohol? I'm asking because these are common migraine triggers and migraines are a common in the celiac population.

      Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum is normal and Endomysial Antibody IgA is negative but <2 IgA and IgG. What would this mean?

      Reintroduction of Gluten

      By Suze046 · Posted

      Hi, so just to put you in the picture, I’ve had lots of digestive issues over the past 6 months, diarrhoea, constipation, gut ache, cramps, head aches, lost 2 stone in weight am perimenopausal.. need I go on. I know some of this is caused by stress and I’ve always had to watch what I eat so noting too processed of fatty and rich. I’ve had blood tests, stool tests gall bladder scan, repeated tests and nothing showed up (which is good) I tested negative for celiac back in March. I’ve just done 6 weeks gluten free and I have to say things got better. My doctor told me to reintroduce it so I did this 9 days ago but gently and I’m still keeping some gluten out of my diet. My question is how long can it take for a reaction because my diarrhoea constipation and cramps are back but only in the last 4 days and it started with a slight unsettling tum feeling first like it might kick off but not sure. So I’m wondering if this is just a coincidence or if it can take your body that long to react? Anyone else been through this? Advice needed!
