1st Birthday Cake Help!

So my baby girl is turning one in January, but I am on the search now for a gluten free yellow cake recipe. I am starting early because I have found that it takes some trials and errors sometimes with gluten free baking. Anyway, I have seen recipes online, but I do not want to use potato starch, mayonaise, cornstarch, or rice flour (some of the ingredients I saw). I would prefer to use sorghum, arrowroot, coconut, or a mixture of like for the flour. I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Newbie

You could try the allrecipes Gluten Free Yellow Cake and use the flours in combo the way you want.

I would use maybe sour cream instead of mayo? Also, you could use yogurt - just choose a full fat one.

I have found this recipe to be EXTREMELY forgiving. I've even used splenda instead of most of the sugar (used like 3 tsp for rising)...I've subbed sour cream, yogurt, used soy milk, etc. and it's always turned out really yummy.

The only thing I have not tried is an egg substitute. But have been told it works fine.

I hope this helps.

(I'd use a flour mix of sorghum, coconut and arrowroot to replace all the flours in the recipe).

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
