I've never had them--only seen them at the store--but Enjoy Life has frozen gluten-free bagels.

We tried these and didn't care for them . . . I'm sure covered with sauce and cheese and pepperoni they would be a LOT better!! :P

We really like the Glutino bagels!!!

That reminds my of one of my first gluten-free attempts last year. Bagels...they ended up in the trash ;)

The taste was ok, I just didn't have the technique down. Anyway, you might google the box above for lots of comments. I remember english muffin mini pizzas, so quick/chewy and delish! :P

This recipe sounds good if you want to make your own:

I absolutely love Joan's bagels and english muffins. We use the english muffins for buns and I would assume they'd make great pizzas. The bagels are out of this world (even my gluten eating friends and family think so too). Shipping is rather expensive so I do a bulk order every few months.

and I've heard the Tesco brand in Canada is fantastic!

We LOVE Joan's too! Bagels and English muffins. Shipping is expensive, but they are fabulous!

Joan's is running a 15% off sale on bagels through Apr. 8. Just FYI.

Joan's english muffins and bagels are by far the best I have ever had. The muffins taste like real english muffins!

mindiloo Rookie

thanks so much! I guess the sell them at a natural food store near me so I'll definitely check them out.

I just tried Trader Joe's English Muffins Gluten/Dairy free.They are VERY good but as I'm finding they HAVE to be toasted which you do with English muffins anyways.I've been making sandwiches with them as they are pretty good sized....I was so happy to find these!!!!

I've made bagels numerous times using the Pamela's bread mix. The recipe or the bagels is right on the bag. I foud they were very good toasted for breakfast wth a topping and I made "bagel pizzas" all the time. The recipe was fairly easy- but ther were several steps and the dough had to rise - so make sure to allow enough time! :D

Same for me. They were the closest to "real" bagels I'd had in many years!

That said... I'm goin' over to check out Joan's... as today is the 8th!!!

Another vote for Joan's! She makes the best.

be careful, a lot of the gluten free bagels out there taste like gritty dirt! no lie!

my favorite bagels are Glutino... they are crusty outside and soft inside just like a real bagel should be! as for english muffins, i've tried Joan's (which are very yummy, but VERY high in fat and calories). the best english muffins i've tried are Foods by George.... they are a taller muffin, but you can split it in half and toast it and put pizza toppings on it for sure... they are VERY light and soft and airy... truly delicious. i enjoy them most toasted with some peanut butter :-)

i've shared both glutino bagels and foods by george english muffins with non-celiac friends and they liked both but LOVED the english muffins :-)

MaryJones2 Enthusiast

All of the gluten-free english muffins and bagels have about the same amount of fat and calories. Joan's english muffins have fewer calories than Foods by George. Joan's does have 1.5 grams more fat but when you're in the 3.5-5g range I personally don't consider it much.

njbeachbum Explorer

sorry, i was going off of memory on the Joan's product since i haven't had them in awhile. the foods by george english muffins are much larger and i'd find it hard to believe that they have much more calories. anyway, i was just offering my personal opinion on the products...

mindiloo Rookie

i'm going to try joans tomorrow as long as the store still has them when i go! do you guys happen to know how much shipping usually is for the georges food? it won't tell me unless i order something..

njbeachbum Explorer

hmmm not sure about the shipping on foods by george. i get the english muffins at a local health food store or whole foods, and actually i started seeing them and their brownies at my shoprite!

Here is the bagel recipe that was given the thumbs up by my children. My kids like them best topped with the poppyseeds.

You're welcome. I love it when someone gives me a TNT recipe that I don't have to mess with until I get it right. So I'm happy to share the good ones with others.

About 4 months ago I had this exact same craving. Joan's great bakes came to the rescue! English muffin pizzas and bagels?! My celiac dreams have been answered!

Only drawback is Joan's bagels cook in oven. . by the time my oven heats up and the bagel cooks, I'm looking at a 1/2 hour breakfast, which just isn't practical given my love of the snooze-button!! -- great on weekends, though!

mindiloo Rookie

i just tried food from george's english muffins...so good for egg sandwiches! I haven't tried to make pizzas yet with them but i think it will be a success

also, the against the grain sun dried basil and tomato bagels are fantastic.

things like this make me so happy :) i love good gluten free carbs

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
