Has anyone out there tried gluten free mama's almond or coconut flour? I'm thinking about ordering some for myself for a late mother's day present for me. I saw on someone's blog that they were both pretty good, but just wondered if anyone else used it.

Appreciate any pros or cons.

I haven't tried it yet but when I emailed the company I got a very positive response from the owner. She said they are certified gluten-free through the CSA and test to 2 PPM.

I haven't tried that particular brand but I bake with almond flour as my only flour and am happy with it. This company offers CC free almond flour/meal. Open Original Shared Link

I've used the coconut blend in sugar cookies and banana bread. The cookies had great flavor just a hint of tart tangeness and nice texture. The banana bread was a little gummy in the middle. But the parts that were edible tasted good :) I think the gummy texture was due to the recipe needing a little tweaking.

I've had the flour and pancake mix for a few weeks now.

The pancakes are really light and fluffy--like wheat ones. The fam and I can't decide whether we like them or Pamela's the best--they're both delish, but different from each other. We liked both better than Kinnikinnick.

The flour: VERY soft. I like that it doesn't come with any gum in it. Sometimes I have problems with xantham gum. I got the cookbook with it and made the most delicious scones/cookies ever--raspberry with white chocolate.

The cookies were soft not crumbly and sat out on the stove for 2 days without any covering (while everyone just walked by and ate them all) and they never did get too hard or fall apart or a weird taste or crumbly. Just really, really good.

Daughter took some to school and everyone at her table tried--the consensus was that they were the best gluten free thing she ever brought for them to sample! These are 15 yrs olds who thought the cookies were better than wheat versions.

The big test is today--I plan on making bread with it using the recipe from the book.

With kids in school and the entire fam having to be on the diet--we really go through the bread--even only making one slice sandwiches for hubby and teenage daughter.

I'm in love with the Schar's bread because of its non-taste, but I noticed last weekend, because of the Memorial Day holiday and we didn't use the bread for four days, that the bread was really hard and the texture had changed. Even putting in the microwave didn't help.

Since I only have 2 Schar mixes left, maybe the family will like this mix.

Cross your fingers! :P

Haven't tried the pizza mix because we still have almost a whole bag left of Domata mix. I'll let you know in a few months. :rolleyes:

      Thanks for sharing this info! Frustrating to see companies who haven't used wheat as an ingredient start to do so! https://blistex.com/product/five-star-lip-protection/

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet to get my symptoms calmed down and my nutrients up.   I know what a struggle it is.  You're why I'm here. Smoothing out some rough parts of your journey makes my journey worthwhile. Here's the tests you can get for Celiac antibodies...

      This Roller Coaster Ride Needs to Stop

      @Ginger38, I'm with you!   I could not take Metformin.  I got so sick, constant diarrhea, abdominal cramps, extreme highs and lows, no energy, weight loss, muscle wasting.  Just horrible.   Metformin is known to block thiamine absorption.  Talk to your doctor about thiamine deficiency.  It's called Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  My doctor didn't recognize thiamine deficiency outside of alcoholism.  So I took over the counter Thiamine in the form Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide and felt health improvement within an hour.  Magical!   I followed the Autoimmune Protocol diet to get my stomach calmed down and control my blood glucose levels without medication. Being diabetic, we lose more thiamine through our kidneys, and the Metformin on top of it and malabsorption from Celiac.  Talk to your doctor soon!

      Thankyou I will be seeing my new primary this coming Monday and will ask.I did ask about some other blood test to look for that I saw on this website.I pushed the second ANA panel two months ago thinking it would show but found out it doesn't.I don't have lupus which seems what the ANA panel seems to only look for.I have come to the conclusion that doctors are like hair people meaning all hair places know how to cut hair and style but not all know how to grow hair.I was given tramadel for nearly 20 years to push through. I literally can't no more and stopped taking tramadel since I was swelling slowly in the belly.I will diffently show new primary this website and hopefully he will help.Its so hard because im falling apart with my eye, skin and read every label and stay away from what Im not supposed to.I had SIBO test done and it died on me and didn't complete all 8 breathes just the 5.I spoke to np and was finally validated by word of mouth.Cone to find out I have to repeat again.I went to a reputable hospital to be let down.I have to redo breath test but want to do at hospital instead of at home so no issues.Its not pleasant drinking that glucose stuff and not getting a direct answer. I live in Northern Cali.What recommended gi would know about celiac  disease, really know because I thought I found one but didn't. I don't want to digest any wheat, dairy, peanuts, rye, barely, eggs,garlic, walnuts because I get sick.When i showed the reputable hospital my past food allergies i was told that test is old.My thoughts were i was made in 1971 and its still avtive with diagestive issues.
