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.

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

1 cup of soy flour

      Curious question

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      Curious question

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
