:lol: Wow that sounds great.

I wonder if you could add candied ginger to Pamela's yellow cake mix Pound Cake. (yeah, I know...I'm a slacker). I've added Heath Candy Chips, Macadamians and Coconut.

MMM HEATH BARS! I used to keep the toffee chips in my freezer before I knew I was lac-tarded :lol:B)

Try the baking mix! Psh that is how I did it until I lost my mind and bought more than one gluten free ingredient at a time! ;) hahaha

I like keeping muffins around to munch on when I am not shoveling cookies in my mouth HAHAHA

God wait til I break out the pumpkin again... it's almost time!

Patti can you use a mix and omit the coconut stuff?

Collette--

I've actually been meaning to ask you.....would a flour mix or just straight rice flour be an ok sub for coconut flour? I'd love to be able to use coconut, since it's so healthy, but I'm sensitive to pretty much all plant proteins <_<

Thanks :D

Patti, would the 'plant proteins' include almond flour too?

Yeah, I think fiber is another thing needed to replace coconut flour, so maybe rice bran?

I'm good with almonds--the rice bran is a good idea, too. I've never tried that.

With sensitivities to soy tapioca and coconut, baking is a juggling substitution act :lol:

Thanks ladies :D

I'd say one cup of coconut flour would be replaced by one cup of potato/corn starch with two tbsps taken out of it and replaced with rice bran. Also, you'll need to reduce the amount of liquid or egg in the recipe since coconut flour uses up so much eggs and fluid.

Rice bran sounds good...might have to pick some of that up! :)

I am actually kind of getting a kick out of flour-swapping! LOL!!! B):lol:

It makes us think outside the box and get creative

For spicy stuff, try using 1/4 of the recipe with teff flour. It gives a very moist crumb, and a nice earthy flavor. Don't go over a quarter unless what you're doing is chocolate though, starts to taste kinda funny (to me).

Isn't teff a darker flour too? :)

These sound wonderful!

Here's another challenge, I can't have bananas or vanilla. Do you think mango puree would work in place of the bananas?? I know coconut and mango go well together (I have coconut mango smoothies :D ) but I am just not sure if mango jives with all of these wonderful spices.

And what would leaving the vanilla out do to the finished product?

YES!!! Pineapple even...OHOH or pear puree LOL :lol:

You can use ginger with any tropical fruit! B)

DAM! I would be sad if I couldn't have vanilla.

yes, which is one reason I recommend it for heavier, spicy/ or chocolate stuff. The taste blends well with peanut butter flavor too.

Yeah, rice bran is good when you don't want the gamy flavor of flax. Don't use as much rice bran as you would flax, either, it makes things mealy if you use too much, it doesn't gel like flax does. Ex: two Tbps flax seed: one Tbsp rice bran.

Well, he discovered after moving in with me and eating gluten-free all the time that when he does have pizza or whatever somewhere he has some rather 'unfriendly' side effects (whew) so he usually doesn't eat any. I think my boyfriend may be the most understanding guy on the planet. When it comes to Celiac, I mean. He won't even let anyone in the house without washing their hands.

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
