Dairy Free Cassava Cake?


Pyro

Recommended Posts

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.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
