Dairy Free Cassava Cake?


Pyro

I love cassava cake and pick it up at the asian supermarket. The ingredients don't mention milk and the place is generally gluten free so I trusted it. But now I'm starting to think that maybe I should trust them ans just go ahead and start making my own. But al the recipes mention milk and are basically this

If I wanted to cut the dairy, would I just double the coconut milk?

I looked at that recipe and my blood sugar shot up....LOL

How are you Pyro? Havnt seen you around in awhile?

I would use more of the coconut cream with coconut milk mixed in until "sweetened condensed milk" consistency. You might need more sweetener though. You could add honey to the coconut cream/milk mixture. Make sure the liquids are equal to what it calls for.

I'm doing fine. Trying to gain about 30-40 pounds of muscle now so I don't look so frail. I'm pretty proud of myself for being able to take the fat gain in stride. Instead of freaking out about it, I simply see it as a temporary side effect which would have been impossible for me to accept in my previous mindstate.

I've gained almost 50 lbs since going gluten-free and I LOVE it. I don't care that I'm a bit squishy now, I hated being model thin. I am out of shape though, and don't like when I can't lift what I need to lift or move what I need to move, so I'm working on that, but Oh! The Joy! The Rapture! I have a bum!!!!!

Alt Cassava Cake Recipe

Ingredients

* 1 tin coconut milk (398ml)

* 2 packets grated cassava (or you can grate one yourself equal to about a pound)

* 2 eggs, beaten (or the equivalent in egg substitution form)

* 1 teaspoon salt

* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

* 1 cup + 1 tablespoon sugar

* 2 tablespoons melted butter or margarine (you can use coconut oil if you can't have butter)

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Mix all the ingredients except the melted butter/margarine in a bowl.

Pour the mixture into a greased dish. Bake at 350F for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and brush melted butter on top of the cake. Bake the cake for another 15 to 30 minutes until the edges is golden brown.

I love the brown edges as its extra chewy.

      Food and environmental allergies involve IgE antibodies.  IgE antibodies provoke histamine release from mast cells.   Celiac disease is not always visible to the naked eye during endoscopy.  Much of the damage is microscopic and patchy or out of reach of the scope.  Did they take any biopsies of your small intestine for a pathologist to examine?  Were you given a Marsh score? Why do you say you "don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease"?   Just curious.

      I was tested for food allergies and environmental allergies about 7 months before I started taking Naltrexone, so I don't think that is the cause for me, but that's interesting!  The main thing with the celiac thing that is throwing me off is these symptoms are lifelong, but I don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Welcome to the forum, @Kara S! Warrior bread is a grain free bread product. Google it. There are commercial mixes available, I believe, Youtube videos and many recipes.

      @Colleen H, I have had similar reactions and symptoms like yours.  I started following the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet developed by a doctor with Celiac Disease herself, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, is very helpful in understanding what's going on in the body.   Not only do you have antibodies attacking the body, there are mast cells spreading histamine which causes inflammation.  Foods also contain histamine or act as histamine releasers.  Our bodies have difficulty clearing histamine if there's too much.  Following the low histamine AIP diet allows your body time to clear the excess histamine we're making as part of the autoimmune response, without adding in extra histamine from foods.  High histamine foods include eggs, processed foods and some citrus fruits.  The AIP diet allows meat and vegetables.  No processed meats like sausage, luncheon meats, ham, chicken nuggets, etc. No night shades (potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant).  No dairy.  No grains.  No rice.  No eggs.  No gluten-free processed foods like gluten free breads and cookies.  No nuts.  No expensive processed gluten-free foods.  Meat and vegetables.  Some fruit. Some fruit, like applesauce, contains high levels of fructose which can cause digestive upsets.  Fructose gets fermented by yeasts in the gastrointestinal tract.  This fermentation can cause gas, bloating and abdominal pain.   The AIP diet changes your microbiome.  Change what you eat and that changes which bacteria live in your gut.  By cutting out carbohydrates from grains and starchy veggies like potatoes, SIBO bacteria get starved out.  Fermenting yeasts get starved out, too.  Healthy bacteria repopulate the gut.   Thiamine Vitamin B 1 helps regulate gut bacteria.  Low thiamine can lead to SIBO and yeast infestation.  Mast cells release histamine more easily when they are low in Thiamine.  Anxiety, depression, and irritability are early symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  A form of thiamine called Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Thiamine works with the seven other B vitamins.  They all need each other to function properly.   Other vitamins and minerals are needed, too.  Vitamin D helps calm and regulate the immune system. Thiamine is needed to turn Vitamin D into an active form.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes.  Taking a B Complex and additional Benfotiamine is beneficial.  The B vitamins are water soluble, easily lost if we're not absorbing nutrients properly as with Celiac Disease.  Since blood tests for B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate, taking a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and magnesium Threonate, and looking for health improvements is a better way to see if you're insufficient.   I do hope you will give the low histamine AIP diet a try.  It really works.
