Seeking No Gums, No Sugar Recipes

Hello,

I am seeking recipes that use no gums and no sugar (not even artificial). I have been celiac for 2 1/2 years but recently I been found to have a lot of intolerances to a lot of new foods. I cannot have gums. You know, the thing we put in baked goods to keep it from crumbling.

Also I cannot have soy.

I would rather not use rice flour but will if I have too for some recipes.

Eggs were cleared for me yesterday, so eggs are allowed.

Coconut oil and coconut was cleared also!

I can have nuts but not seeds. I just have to limit them to a few.

Dairy is not allowed but I have a substitute.

Yeast is also not allowed.

So, anyone have any simple recipes that I could have?

Here is one to get us started:

Mango served with sweet sticky rice and mixed with coconut milk. Maybe a dollop of chocolate?

I have a Mango and pineapple cake recipe that I can post if anyone is interested.

Thanks,

Del

Hi, Del -

I was just wondering if you had any luck finding some sugar substitutes? I just replied to another post about Chocolate Cake that called for 2 cups of sugar and asked the same question. I don't do sugar-substitutes either and 2 cups just seemed like a huge amount of sugar! I've read some things in some of the Carol Fenster cookbooks about different substitution ideas, but I haven't actually tried them yet. I really haven't done much baking. I'm the only Celiac and if I bake something, I EAT THE WHOLE THING, so....I'm trying to behave. You may want to check out some of her books...right now I have "Wheat-Free Recipes and Menus" in front of me and in the back there are sections for "Baking with Alternative Sweeteners" "Baking with Dairy Substitutes" and "Baking with Egg Substitutes" I think my favorite idea for the sweeteners is using fruit puree (either baby food fruits or puree fruits in the blender) but it suggests that it is best if used as a substitute for 1/2 not all of the sugar. It suggests Prune, Apple, Apricot, Banana, and Pear and suggests using Prune for dark colored foods. They also suggest using Frozen Fruit Juice Concentrate (Apple, White Grape, Orange, Pineapple) and you should used pure concentrate. She has suggestions in there for the amount to use...a little tricky, but worth trying to cut down on the sugar. Good luck!

Lisa-

I use Xylitol and Stevia (which are natural)and they don't mess with blood sugar so they are ok even for diabetics.

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.
