My Daughter's gluten-free Banana Bread Won Grand Champion At County Fair!

The judge really really liked it. She said, "do you have part of this loaf left at home so that you can go home and freeze the rest for State Fair?" She is to pick a select few to compete at the State level and our gluten-free recipe made it over gluten loaves! She had sliced it open to evalute it and had nothing but good things to say. What a huge encouragement to my little girl who has been having seizures. Proof that we can eat just as well as anyone else.

Hi TammyK,

I'm really happy for your daughter, you must be as proud as punch,

moreover, she must be over the moon with such an honour.

.

I'm curious what recipe did she use could you post so we could all try it!

Best Regards,

David

"The" Recipe

We had quiet the evening with my DD for she was so elated that we could NOT get her to settle down for bed last night. It's so wonderful to see her so proud of herself after a particularly difficult two months from illness. I only hope she can repeat this loaf for State Fair. Plus, I think more good news is needed on this forum.

Here is the recipe. . . the magical ingredients are the soy flour (I know, this one is debatable), the extra egg, and using a unique shortening called Spectrum (Non-hydrogenated solid palm oil. Can buy at a health food store).

Sifting is important too.

BEST BANANA BREAD

Makes 1 loaf, 4 x 8

Congrats, how exciting. I won some fair ribbons for baking when I was in high school and I was pretty proud of myself so I am sure your daughter is feeling pretty darn good. :D

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
