Finally, Decent Waffles!

Hey there everyone,

I just made my "big" quarterly order of gluten-free flours and products from several of my favorite companies. Most of what I order is simply to bake with...i.e. flours, etc.

But, this time I splurged and purchased Kinnikinnick gluten-free waffles. Oh my goodness, they were the closest thing to eggos I've had since going gluten-free! I have bought the Vaughn's waffles several times. I'm not that fond of the flavor, and mine always seem to fall apart (literally)...it's like scooping up crumbs.

The waffles from kinninnick were crispy when toasted and had a "waffle consistancy."

Well, I just thought I'd share.

Blessings. :) -Julie

I have heard that Pamelas mix is good too :) I wanted to point out that I originally stated the wrong company...the waffles came from Kinnikinnick not B-R-Mill.

Happy Baking. -Julie

I get Lifestream Wildberry and those are pretty darn good! I was never a fan of Eggos, but since going gluten-free I was looking for some different breakfast ideas. I tried Vans and they were good. Then my healthfood store had Lifestream, so I bought those. Yummy!! Nice and crunch on the outside, but soft on the inside. Mmmm! I've got two in my toaster as I type :P !

Rosebud, I am with you! Those Lifestream waffles are pretty darn good!! I discovered them yesterday and had them for breakfast this AM. It was such a nice change from my regular cold cereal, and it felt so good to finally eat waffles again and know that I wouldn't pay for it later!!

I love both van's and lifestream waffles, though they are a bit crumbly. I haven't tried their waffles, but kinnikinnick's frozen stuff like that tends to be really good! the donuts and bagels are to DIE for! Plus they're not as loaded with fat and sugar as a lot of gluten-free baked goods are, and theyre each 260 calories. And they have 5g of protein and fiber (both the donuts and the bagels) so i don't even feel guilty :-) ok only a little guilty...lol but they're worth it

as my brother put it, if it doesnt make you sick, it's good for you :-)

I'm from CT and get kinnikinnick products at pricechopper (which has a very impressive gluten-free section) or a big health food store like whole foods. We also have a local grocery store chain here called geissler's, and my celiac friend's sister works there so they special ordered a bunch of stuff :-) so try asking at your local grocery store and see if they'll order stuff

I love the lifestream waffels. I was amazed to find them in the freezer section at Vons of all places. I like their texture and taste better than Vans. No more going to the organic store for waffles, LOL.

I had asked my local health food store about Kinnickinnic's waffles and they would see if they can get them. I've been there since then and no waffles (they are pretty good about getting things customers ask about). I've looked at Whole Foods (they have Lifestream) and nothing <_< !

I've had K's donuts and they are wonderful!! I love that they aren't as fattening as gluten donuts!

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!

      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?

      I suffer from Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too.  Like @Rogol72, I had to cut out all gluten-free processed foods, dairy, oats, and eggs before my skin cleared up.  I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet. I also supplement with the eight essential B vitamins.  (Meat and liver are great sources of B vitamins.)  Low levels of certain B vitamins ( B12, Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and Niacin) can affect the nerves, resulting in itching and tingling.  Niacin especially helps with the itching and healing the blisters.  Tallow Balm helps with the healing, too.  Zinc and Vitamin A also help with skin health.   I've gotten such good results with Niacin and the other vitamins mentioned that I've never had to go on Dapsone.
