My husband always made me a cake on my birthday, but he's not a cook. Thank God for Betty Crocker! But, this year, it had to be gluten-free. I tried to find a gluten-free mix but no way am I going to pay 6.00 for a box of cake mix. So, a new tradition must start. gluten-free cakes are to hard for him to make, but I remembered an easy cake that my Grndma used to make and I love. I tweaked her recipe a little and it turned out great. And it's so easy to make that even he can make it next year. Don't have time right now, but if anyone wants the recipe for rhubarb cake, let me know.

cream together- 1 1/2 C brown sugar and 1/2 C soft butter. Add 1 egg and vanilla and beat well. Mix 2 C gluten-free flour, 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp xanthan gum in separate bowl and whisk to combine. Add alternately with 1 C sour milk or butter milk. Add 2 C sliced rhubarb ( about 1/4 inch slice). Pour into greased and floured 9 by 13 inch pan. Sprinkle top with cinnomon sugar (1/2 C sugar and 2 tsp cinn). Bake at 350 about 40 min or till done. gluten-free flour mix- 3 C rice flour, 1C potato starch flour, and 1/2 C tapioca starch. Sorry about the format of this recipe. I just realized that I don't know how to make a list on this thing! My typing skills are bad, which is why I don't post often. by by

I've converted it to a usable recipe (for my own benefit but thought I'd share). Let me know if I have transcribed any of it incorrectly.

I made this cake last night and it was delicious!! Good enough to serve to guests who are not gluten-free. My 15 year old ate 3 pieces and she usually snubs her nose at anything gluten-free.

Thanks for the recipe- it is a keeper!

PS I used Bette's Gourmet Featherlite Rice Flour Blend which I keep in our flour canister so it came together quickly with minimal measuring.

      4 Years and very little progress

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello there @maylynn  I'm a slow healer from the UK.  I sympathise.  Despite three endoscopies which showed nothing wrong, I frequently suffered from a very sore stomach, bloating, feeling queasy.   For some time I was taking the wrong iron supplement (Floradix instead of Floravital - the former has gluten in it, but the latter none).  But I would say even very little iron from an approved source made my stomach sore, I think it can be quite irritating. Perhaps that is an issue for you? Oats (the gluten-free pure ones) were an issue for many years (now fine).   Even though my endoscopy findings did not reflect any problems with healing, or any other issues, I self-diagnosed myself with gastritis as it seemed the feeling of nausea and in my case burning in the stomach pointed to it.  I went onto a gastritis/reflux diet and that really helped.   Have a google - there are tonnes online.  That meant avoiding spicy, greasy food, onions, tomatoes, coffee and alcohol.  (Actually, I don't drink, but I did toast someone during that time at a baptism and it set my stomach on fire.)   Instead of drinking strong coffee, I drank water, camomile tea, warm ginger water... so soothing.  I would not go to bed with a full stomach when things were bad, I would let my stomach rest from say 8pm to 8am, which really helped.   My husband and I then decided to buy a new oven and to buy a new dishwasher - we did need new ones anyway.  The new oven had two compartments, gluten goes in one, gluten free in the other.  The new dishwasher was a Miele which does a full rinse with clean water before washing the dishes.  But before I could afford a new dishwasher I would hand wash the dishes and make sure they were really rinsed well, no residue  (unlike our old dishwasher that was really not rinsing well at all). I stopped eating out for quite a few years - I think this is a biggy - although I would have coffee and soft drinks out. Eventually, my levels normalised.  What of the above was the 'silver bullet'?  I am not sure, but finally I did feel a lot better.  Occasionally I will take an over the counter PPI (omeprazole) or a small dose of Gaviscon, but most of the time I don't need them now. I'm not expecting anyone to go to all these lengths, but it could be that one or two of the tips I give you might work.  Don't give up hope! Cristiana

      High IGA antigliadin, everything else normal, what does this mean?

      By RMJ · Posted

      Yes, it would make sense to go mostly gluten free, since it gives your troubles.

      Yes, I made an effort to eat extra gluten at least 3 weeks before the endoscopy. I probably ate a some amount in the weeks before that. I had diarrhea, which resolved once I cut back after the endoscopy. So I think it would make sense to go mostly gluten free?

      Yay for the normal biopsy! Thanks for the follow up. Were you eating gluten prior to the endoscopy?

      I think that with the elevated antibodies found in past tests, and a negative biopsy, you are firmly in the NCGS camp. If symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would be confirmation that you should likely stay on the diet.
