I converted my old pumpkin bread recipe to be gluten free and it turned out nonstopeatinggood. :P It makes alot but you could cut it in half. Here is the recipe:

Gluten free Pumpkin Bread

4 eggs

1 3/4 cups sugar

1 15oz. can Libby's pure pumpkin

3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce

1/2 cup oil

4 cups gluten-free flour mix (I couldn't decide so I used 1/2 featherlite and 1/2 Carol's sorghum mix)

2 tsp. baking soda

2 tsp. ground flax, opt.

2 tsp. xanthan gum

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. ground cloves

1 tsp. each: cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg

1 cup water or milk (I use water)

about 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

In a very large mixing bowl, beat eggs (I use a hand mixer). Beat in sugar, pumpkin, applesauce and oil.

Whisk together all the dry ingredients and beat in 1/2 at a time. ( I just dump it in after measuring and beat in 1/2 the flour last)

Slowly beat in water until mixed and there are no flour lumps. You can add chips now or later.

Pour batter into 6 greased and floured small loaf pans (5 3/4"x3"x2 1/2 ").

Gently stir in without scraping the edges, 1/4 cup chocolate chips into some of the pans(incase your peeps can't have/don't like chocolate like my peeps <_< )

Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for about 40-45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. (I use a convection oven) My breads rose great and were light and fluffy and sooo tastey.

Cut a loaf in 1/2 and take a big muffin to work. :D

You can make muffins, just reduce the baking time and you only need to spray the pans. Or bake in cake pans too. I would advise only trying a big bread pan with one loaf b/c the batter is heavy and the bread may not get done in the middle...someone can let us know...

I have never frozen the gluten-free version but the gluten kind froze well. I would double wrap it. The smaller loaves are also nice for giving away ;) The first batch you will eat quickly :lol:

Pumpkin muffins sounded yummy...I asked my dd if she wanted them again...so I made these yesterday with just the sorghum flour blend and they turned out great...today they were still like fresh made. The batch makes a ton (prob 24, I make 3 sizes), you either have to freeze them or share with a friend :)

Purple, I am really missing Pumpkin bars with cream cheese frosting. Would this recipe work for that by just putting in a jelly roll pan or would you change something first?

I don't know how much this will help. I used to use a gluten carrot cake mix plus the oil, eggs, pumpkin, pie spice and an additional 1/3 cup sugar. They were great, cake like of course, plenty sweet like a cake. Baked in a 15x10" pan but I baked it in an 11x17". The frosting was a can of vanilla ready to spread with 3 oz. of cream cheese beat in.

If you use the bread recipe it will be less sweet and not as flakey as a cake (less sugar is always ok ;) ). If you think it needs a bit more sugar or applesauce try 1/4 cup. But I think it would work great. I wouldn't fill the pan too full b/c I read gluten-free baking should be done in smaller pans. You would have to judge if you would need to add another pan. If I were to try it I would use 1 or 2 muffin pans for extra batter just in case. I had a muffin for breakfast today, the third day and it was just as good as the day I made them 2 days ago. I freeze the extras and send to my dd or give some to a neighbor.

Let us know what happens b/c I have been looking at the pumpkin bar recipe too in a fall baking book :rolleyes:

good to know!

So, would this be enough batter for 2 full bread loaves or just one? Also, would you recommend using canned pumpkin pie filling and adapting the sugar/spices? Cuz that's apparently what I bought and didn't use last fall. <_<

I haven't made the gluten-free version in a full sized loaf pan yet...b/c I read the gluten-free baking should be in smaller pans so the middle will get done. If you take a chance let us know ;) The gluten version recipe says 2-3 large pans so I would use 3 or 1 large and 3 small. Try 3 to be safe so its not so thick.

I just use plain canned pumpkin (Libby's).

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      @Riley., Welcome to the forum.   It was once believed that Celiac Disease was only a childhood disease and it can be outgrown.  That was before 1951, before gluten was discovered to be cause of Celiac Disease, also called Infantilism.  Back then Cileac Disease was thought to be only a gastro intestinal disease, once you  "outgrew" the colicky phase, you were cured. You were so lucky to be diagnosed at 5 years old so your developing years were normal.  Gluten can affect multiple systems.  The nervous system, your intellegence. The muscules, skeleton. It can cause neurological issues like brain fog, anxiety, and peripheral neuropathy.  It can cause joint pain, muscle weakness, and skin rashes. Epilepsy is 1.8 times more prevalent in patients with celiac disease, compared to the general population. Because through malabsorption and food avoidances, it causes vitamin D and numerouus other essential nutrient deficiencies, it allows allergies, infections, poor growth, stuffy sinuses and eustacian tubes. There is even a catagory of celiac disease called "Silent Celiac".  Any symptoms are explained away as this, that or the other thing. Gluten is one of the most addictive substances we consume.  Activating the Opiod receptors in our cells, it can numb us to the damage that it, and other foods are causing.  It has become socially acceptable to eat foods that make us feel sick.  "There's a pill for that".   It is generally accepted that n fact you are weird if you don't. The hardest part is that if you don't eat gluten you will feel great and think why not.  But slowly it will effect you, you'll be diagnosed with real diseases that you don't have. You'll be more susseptable to other autoimmune diseases.  As you read through the posts here, notice how many are finally dianosed, after years of suffering at older ages.  Is it worth it? I think not. Perhaps this book will help:  Here is a list of possible symptoms:

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Riley. · Posted

      Hi! Im Riley, 18 years old and have been diagnosed for 13 years.. the testing started bc I stopped growing and didn’t gain any weight and was really small and thin for my age.  I got diagnosed when I was 5 and have been living gluten free since, in elementary and middle school it was hard for me and I kept contaminating myself bc I wanted to fit in with my friends so so badly. I ate gluten secretly at school and mostly regretted it 30 minutes later.  I’ve had symptoms like diarrhea, nausea, headaches, stomachaches, threw up a lot and was really emotional.  In 2022 I really started working on myself and tried to stay gluten free and if I did eat gluten I wouldn’t tell anyone and suffer in silence.  Last year in July I begged my mom to let me „cheat“ one day bc I just wanted to fit in… I ate a lot of different stuff, all the stuff I missed out on in my childhood like nuggets, pizza and all that.. I didn’t have symptoms that day and was doing really fine My mom and I wanted to test how far we can go and said we would test it for 12 weeks to get my blood taken after to see if I’m doing good or if symptoms start showing  As a now 18 year old girl who finally gained a normal weight and doesn’t get symptoms I’m to scared to get tested/my blood taken cuz I finally found comfort in food and it got so much easier for me and my family.  A year and 4 months later i still didn’t get any symptoms and have been eating gluten daily.  I’m scared to get tested/my blood taken cuz what if I’m actually not fine and have to go back to eating gluten free. Any tips to get over that fear and „suck it up“ cuz I know I could seriously damage my body… sorry if I seem like a idiot here… just don’t really know what to do :,)

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Aldi Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better
