Preheat oven to 350, spray 9x13 lightly with cooking spray (or make muffins)

2c Pamela's baking mix

1.5c sugar (a lot, but you can reduce to 3/4 if you want)

2tsp cinnamon

1/4tsp cloves

3/4c egg whites (or 4 whole eggs)

2c canned pumpkin (or 1 15oz can)

NO oil!! (or use 1/3 c if desired)

You can frost with cream cheese frosting if desired

Stir together Pamelas, sugar, cinnamon, cloves

Stir in egg whites, pumpkin and oil (if using)

Combine well, pour into pan

Bake 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean

Cool in pan 2 hours before cutting (if you can stand it)

If doing muffins, you can use liners.

Breakdowns like this:

24 bars or 24 small muffins=100 calories

12 BIG muffins=200 calories

(will be less if you decrease the sugar!!!

Enjoy

Sounds yummy! I have a bad habit of eating half of what I bake as soon as it comes out of the oven, so a big muffin for only 200 cals sounds appealing! I'm allergic to squash though so I might turn this into a banana muffin recipe. Or carrot or sweet potato...any thoughts on how well that would work? :)

This sounds really good!

I would try substituting the canned pumpkin puree for cooked sweet potato puree. Years ago I found this sweet potato muffin recipe that called for cooked sweet potato puree, they were delicious! You might have to experiment with the amount of sweet potato puree, I don't know if it would be a 1:1 ratio with the pumpkin puree, but it just might be.

It would also be good with mashed banana in place of the pumpkin puree.

With the sweet potato-I'm sure it would be awesome, you might want to add the oil to make sure it wouldn't be too dry--but maybe wait until the very end to see what the texture of the batter. It was like a cake batter that flowed into the pan very easy, not lumpy or gloppy, but not watery. My husband had a poker party last night and they disappeared really quickly--then the wives call me the next morning an complain that I shouldn't be baking for their husbands because they come home and want to be baked for :lol:

Update:

I made them again as muffins instead of bread, I reduced the sugar to 3/4 cup which brings the 12count down to 150 calories !!! I didn't miss the sugar at all!

If making 12 muffins, spray tins lightly and then fill to the top of each cup. It filled each one perfectly! Bake for 30 minutes still-since they're so full.

      Can you be specific about what supplements you are taking? The form of a supplement can be critical in how well it is absorbed. Many over the counter vitamin and mineral supplements are optimized for shelf-life rather than absorbability. For instance, take magnesium. On the store shelves you will often see Magnesium oxide or Magnesium citrate. Magnesium glycinate is a much better choice. Same with zinc. Zinc picolinate is a much better choice than zinc oxide. Same with B12, Thiamin, etc. This can be critical when your absorption efficiency is already compromised by celiac disease. You should research best vitamin and mineral formulations for absorbability.  Routinely, we recommend on this forum the following combination of supplements to counteract nutritional deficiencies from long-term untreated celiac disease: B12 sublingual, B-complex, D3 (5-10k IU daily), magnesium glycinate, zinc picolinate. If you are taking an iron supplement, drink something acidic with it like orange or tomato juice or a vitamin C tablet to increase absorption.  As the villous lining of your small bowel heals from the gluten-free diet, your absorption efficiency will improve. In the meantime, the only way to combat poor absorption efficiency is to flood the small small bowel with more concentration of vitamins and minerals.

      I did a tTG-IgA test to check if they were high I usually do it a lot when I was a kid but the last time I did it was when I was 12 then now at 17 and they were 32 the normal is less than 7 i guess .also I want to know,I do have gluten free supplements but they are not absorbed well due to the inflammation, what do I do should I wait six month after I eat gluten free food or take now even tho I am not sure if they able to be absorbed and I don't see improvements

      Actually, it's an opioid hit.  Gluten attaches to opioid receptors we have throughout our bodies including our digestive systems.  That opioid hit from gluten attaching to opioid receptors is probably why some people don't have gastrointestinal symptoms.  Some people feel worse after going gluten free because they are no longer consuming exogenous opioids from gluten. We also have opioid receptors in our brains which can account for brain fog.  Remember that antibodies against gluten attack not only the gluten on the receptors, but also our own tissues because structural elements in our cell membranes resemble gluten.  In our digestive systems, our villi, the anemone like projections that absorb nutrients, are damaged.  Same type of thing in the tissue of the brain.  People with gluten ataxia tend to produce tTg 6 IgA antibodies.  Diagnostic blood tests for Celiac test for tTg 2 antibodies from the intestines.  People with Parkinson's and Alzheimer's also produce tTg 6 antibodies although they may not have Celiac Disease.   Gluten is not just an addiction, it's a health hazard to us.

      Do you have a soy or peanut allergy? This shouldn't be a concern purely from a celiac or gluten sensitivity perspective.

      Welcome to the forum, @Sarawiththeceliac! Can you give us the reference range for your celiac test? Different labs use different reference ranges for negative vs. positive so without that a test score of 32 is not that helpful. And its that a recent test or was it done when you were 5 years old? It is imperative that you begin to observe a strict gluten-free diet. If you will do this, you can expect substantial improvement in your health. I can't promise you that you will experience 100% repair of all body damage but you can expect significant improvement overall. You will also need invest in some high potency gluten-free vitamin and mineral supplements. Celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel. That is the area of the intestinal track where all of the vitamins and minerals contained in what we eat gets absorbed. The damage to this villous lining greatly reduces the efficiency of the absorption. In the meantime, here is a primer for getting off to a good start on the gluten free diet:
