Gluten Free Waffles

Hello,

I used to love Lifestream brand Buckwheat waffles but I haven't eaten them in a long time. I was eating them for several months but saw a return in symptoms and suspected those may have had something to do with it. I think I remember reading here a while back that others had issues with them too.

Anyone know if they have fixed any possible contamination issues?

Or - does anyone know of any gluten free waffles other than Vans? (I don't like Vans)

Thanks~

Trader Joe's has gluten-free waffles and they are delicious. My kids love both the plain and the banana. Kinikinnick also sells waffles, but I haven't tried them. They get rave reviews from others, though.

Wow - the closest Trader Joe's is over an hour away from me! I'm sure Kinickinnick is great - I like many of their products - I just can't afford the shipping and no one sells the waffles here. Maybe I can talk one of our stores into carrying them.

Thanks :)

What about getting a waffle maker and making your own? Make extra and freeze them. Would be cheaper in the long run. I have only made pancakes so far and they are a lot better than frozen waffles at the grocery store. I want to make homemade waffles though.

I have seen a lot of recipies in my cookbooks for waffles but have been putting any extra time I have into trying to cook new gluten free meals.

Good Luck

We bought a new waffle iron at Walmart for 10 bucks. I make a batch and keep in the fridge for a couple of days or you can freeze them. Just pop them in the toaster. My daughter likes them with homemade apple pie filling on top. I use the recipe from Gluten Free Quick and Easy by Carol Fenster. Our health food store is about 120 miles round trip. That is inconvenient! Last time I was there, they were out but I wasn't going to buy them anyway.

Kinnickinick makes great frozen gluten free waffles. They come in regular flavor and cinnamon brown sugar.

Thanks for the ideas. I haven't found a pancake mix I like yet, but maybe I can mix up my own waffle mix and just do it myself. I'll check out some recipes.

Thanks! :D

Pamela's Ultimate Baking and Pancake Mix makes really good waffles - recipe on the package.

If you can get them, my absolute favorites are the lifestream buckwheat wildberry gluten-free waffles in the purple box. They are the best I have ever had and I feel bummed if I am out of them in the am.

You have to be careful because they make many similarly boxed items and some are not gluten-free.

Hmmm - haven't tried Pamela's for waffles. I didn't care for the pancakes much. Would the recipe be different for waffles I wonder?

Yes, I love Lifestream. I thought I was being careful to get gluten-free ones. I thought others had had cc issues with them and so when I started having trouble again I just attributed it to the waffles, but who knows.

I might just have to try those Kinickinnick ones if I can get my hands on them. I definately can't afford $10 shipping for a few waffles!

Thanks~

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
