I am in desperate need of any recipes for cookies, cake or muffins that are free of dairy, gluten, egg and soy.

If anyone can help me, I would be so grateful!

My ds has those allergies too, I have used Bob's Red Mill products with some success. Right now we are stationed overseas so I am seriously limited in options. I use milled flax seed for egg replacer in many things (plus he gets some extra Omega 3's that way!) and I have used EnerG Egg replacer in the past with success (but don't have it here). I just sub rice milk for milk, and I have also used spectrum shortening (when I could get it back in the states) in place of butter/margarine. I used a cherrybrook kitchens cake mix and frosting mix (used coconut oil I think in that one, added a coconut flavor) that came out great too. I haven't baked "from scratch" really because I didn't want to invest in a bunch of different flours and then not like some of them, and I don't like to spend a lot of time experimenting. I just inquired about Open Original Shared Link which you can use 1:1 for regular wheat flour. For school, I used to just keep a box of Enjoy Life Foods cookies in his classroom to eat when there was a birthday or other celebration. That was easier than sending a frozen cupcake, though he wasn't opposed to that. He liked the Bob's Red Mill brownie mix as well.

If you see something there that's interesting, order from them or find it in you local health food store. I know the store by me carries some of these items.

I bake without dairy, egg, and soy all the time. It's pretty easy to get decent results too. In place of eggs, there are a few other common substitutes besides flax meal which many say do work well. I've used applesauce with success, and nut meals such as almond, pecan, or walnut can work depending how the egg is being used. I really like coconut oil in recipes, and although I haven't yet tried coconut milk, I'm sure it would work in place of cow's milk. Many times I just use water.

The texture which soy flour lends is perhaps the trickiest to sub, but nut meal will provide a nice moistness.

So far I've been using guar gum, and it seems to work well. I haven't tried xanthan yet, but from what I've read, guar is supposed to be a bit better for cakes, muffins, etc. Other thickeners/emulsifiers to consider are agar, pectin, clearjel, cornstarch, and arrowroot.

Here's a recipe for orange walnut bread, which should work just fine for muffins. Just cut down on the baking time a bit. Poster subbed items so it's gluten-free, dairy-free (uses ghee, but makes alt. suggestions farther down the thread), egg-free, soy-free...

I haven't tried this particular recipe, but I've had one very similar. Oh my, was it wonderful!!! So yummy!!

The products themselves might not contain the allergens, but if it's a mix, they sometimes require the allergen to bake it. I wish they would list the added ingredients needed on all of the products. They do on some, but not all.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
