Who Has Gfcfsf Brownie Recipe?

A lot of the commercial chocolate I've seen has soy lechitin in it. Has anybody figured out how to make these -- without butter or margarine? I have coconut oil that could be used in place of shortening, but not sure what to do about the chocolate.

Cocoa powder I believe is soy free?

Here's a recipe that needs to be modified for gluten-free:

Vegan Brownies

INGREDIENTS

2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (substitute gluten-free flour)

2 cups white sugar

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup water

1 cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Pour in water, vegetable oil and vanilla; mix until well blended. Spread evenly in a 9x13 inch baking pan.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top is no longer shiny. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting into squares.

Enjoy Life has soy free chocolate chips so if you want to do a double chocolate brownie with the chocolate chips folded into the batter.

Mix well and scrape into greased 9 x 9 pan. Bake at 375 for 25 minutes. Cool slightly, then cut into squares.

Open Original Shared Link to the best brownie recipe I have had since going gluten-free. It is free of wheat, gluten, dairy, casein, and eggs. I serve it to gluten eaters all the time, and they love it. So you know it is good! To make it soy free, use Enjoy Life chocolate chips.

Use Bob's Red Mill brownie mix - coconut oil instead of butter - then add some Enjoy Life chocolate chips. Sooooo good :)

I don't know why I didn't think of a mix, DUH!

Namaste has a great brownie mix also, you use oil as the fat.

*Pamela's Brownie Mix and gluten-free Pantry Truffle Brownie Mix both have chocolate chunks added tot he batter so they are out if you are eliminating soy lecithin.

If it does not have to be "brownies" exactly, here's something I concocted (through inspiration) last night in the kitchen:

1 cup of pecans (soaked overnight then dried again)

1/2 cup coconut

handful of cried cranberries

handful of raw cocoa nibs

5/6 dates or so

dash salt

dash cayenne pepper (weird, I know)

some agave if you want it sweeter

some nut butter to make it stick together (I used walnut, also good would be pecan, almond, cashew?)

You process this in the food processor until it just sticks together. It needs to stick together in order to roll into balls. You then roll the balls in coconut.

Anyway, I was trying to emulate some kind of Lara bar or something, but less sweet. It ended up being pretty sweet. The cocao nibs are PURE CHOCOLATE, which you may know does not taste good on its own. But with some sweetner, it is tasty and probably way better for you than cooked chocolate.

Good luck.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
    • trents
      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
