Making My Own Oat Flour?

If I have gluten-free oats (rolled) - and I give them a whirl in my food processor - will I have oat flour? I have not found gluten-free oat flour anywhere and shipping is too expensive.

Any suggestions?

Also, does Quinoa flour exist (already packaged)? Or would I need to put that through a coffee grinder or some other process to get that type flour?

Is sorghum related to corn? If so and if corn is an intolerance, would that automatically make sorghum one as well?

Last, but not least - what is millet related to?

Thanks!

I have made recipes that call for small amounts of oat flour in addition to other flours. I whir the oats in the food processor and it works fine. If a few grains end up a little larger than flour, no big deal, at least in the bread that I make. I have also done this to relace the flax seed meal in my bread recipe.

Corn and Sorghum are both grains so yes they are related, but that doesn't necessarily mean you will react to both. I react to corn but not sorghum.

Fingers faster than the brain! I posted before I was ready. I recently purchased a Cuisinart food processor (it was on a fantastic sale!!). It is my best friend in the kitchen! :D I will give the oats a whirl as you suggest, Missy'sMom.

Hmmm...wondering if I could also make my own almond meal flour? How much is too much for a food processor? Guess I should get out the manual and look at the recipes. If it shows how to make peanut butter, then I would think I could use almonds as well.

I don't use almond meal in great quantity and this may not be the most economical way, but I have processed the thin slivered almonds in the processor. Not as hard on the machine.

I'm pretty sure that the quinoa flour that I have (I transfer them into containers) was from Bob's Red Mill. If the store that you purchase some of your other gluten-free stuff has Bob's Red Mill products already just ask if they could also bring in the quinoa flour.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for the update @Rejoicephd it is good to know that you may have some answers.  Keep up the good work with your diet, and do let us know if you do get a firm diagnosis.  I took so long to feel better and for my TTG levels to normalise,  but got there in the end, so also bear in mind it does take longer for some of us.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By StuartJ · Posted

      Well, three months later and a startling revelation!  After going gluten free (and nearly bankrupt buying special foods), my wife made a lunch of meat potatoes and gravy made with Bertolli white sauce - no wheat there right?  Big flare up withing hours and I was really wiped out with it.  She rechecks the label on the sauce bottle and right at the bottom of the ingredients XANTHAN GUM. There's our #1 suspect again!  So by way of experimenting, she decided to try making a loaf of bread with just regular white flour like she used to do and see what happened; the familiar smell hit me when I walked in the door last night and I sat down to eat this still warm, fresh goodness - I thought even if I have to take Imodium sandwiches, it will be worth it 😋 No ill effects, either overnight or today!  Half the loaf is now gone because I had some for supper, saving just one last slice for breakfast in the morning` - I've used the bathroom once and that was normal, so maybe it is not the gluten after all? Can't wait to try a beer! 😁

      Could this be a new intolerance

      By trents · Posted

      Unfortunately, the development of celiac disease usually is not an end in and of itself. It usually brings along friends, given time. It is at heart an immune system dysfunction which often embraces other immune system dysfunctions as time goes on.

      Thanks so much for the responses. I will urge him to go for further investigation. To be 48yrs old and develop a new allergy.. ugh, As if celiac disease isn’t enough!

      This does not seem to be an anaphylactic response but I agree it would be wise to seek allergy-food sensitivity testing. You might look into ALCAT food sensitivity testing.
