Betterbatter Gluten-free Flour

EDIT: THE WEBSITE IS WWW.BETTERBATTER.ORG--sorry about the confusion

The website is www.betterbatter.com--and they have recipes on the website!

You can order some of their flour--it's supposed to be a cup-for-cup replacement for the gluteny stuff--and have it shipped, but I've been trying to get ahold of the buyer for our local supermarket so that I can request that they carry it.

I believe that they donate some or all of the profits to autism research, too. :)

If anybody gets a hold of some, let us know if it's as good as it looks.

I posted about better batter under the publictions section a week or two ago.

Fiddle-Faddle , there is not anyone carrying this around us as yet. Naomi (owner) is looking into attending the seminar in Oct in Pgh -- I think at the embassey by Airport....I will keep you updated if she makes it to that seminar.

She has a great blog & site with useful info & it is very well written. I , myself don't care for ranting blogs but this one is excellent. She also has a recipe for Krispy Kreme Donuts...The bread section is messed up at present but I'm sure Naomi will get it back to the correct info very soon.

The flour blend comes to me with high ratings.......

I didn't try betterbatter's site before I posted. It came up for me with no problems so I think it is working & not closed down..... I did a search on betterbatter homepage & it came up immediately......

check it out again & keep me posted.

I just ordered a bag. I love baking, especially as the weather turns colder. I plan on just substituting this flour in my favorite recipes. Hope it works. :rolleyes:

I just received a case of this over the weekend. I've spent the entire time baking and cooking with it (aside from sleeping and caring for the children.)

To say I am ecstatic wouldn't be enough.

I just recently found her site last week, and after 8 weeks of trying everything out there, and being absolutely depressed with the results (I was one of those avid...a.k.a. obsessive bakers prior to finding out my son was gluten-free in early February, who bought 50 lbs of organic flour at a time.....made 13 different kinds of cookies at christmas and still felt I was behind...and read cookbooks for FUN). I wanted some sense of the "old life."

So far I've made pizza crusts, an oatmeal bread, chocolate muffins, and granola.....and I'm getting posts up to my blog to share the results. if anyone is interested.

I am so happy I could cry. And the best part is, it's shelf stable, and I can buy it in bulk...I have to feed 4-6 people at a time.

She's got a customer for life here, as long as she keeps making it.

Five stars from me!

June, you and I could compare notes. Christmas cookies! Cookbook reading! OMG I love you LAWL sorry but you are the first person other then me that said I read cookbooks for fun.

I have not heard of this mix before so am going to look into finding it local. Lately coconut flour has been my best friend.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10). Since then it has gone up to 10. I am not happy with that.

      Low iron and vitamin d

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer. Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks...

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.
