I was just diagnosed with celiac disease and I am a big time waffle lover. Made waffles with Bisquick and just tried the Namaste Waffle & Pancake mix and was not happy. Is there anything better out there that taste close to regular waffles? Please help, I am about to fold and just have a regular waffle. :( :( :( :( :(

My husband has been making waffles with Pamela's mix and eating them in front of me because I discovered I can't have the potato starch in her mix...He made them again yesterday so I got teed off and looked at the ingredients on the Pamela's packet and followed her recipe except for the flour. I have found a cake flour mix that will work for me (stir together equal parts brown rice flour, sorghum, tapioca starch) so this is what I did (and I am not the kind to iimprovise baking recipes, not even those with gluten in them):

1 cup of flour mix

1-1/2 tsp xanthan gum

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp baking soda

pinch or so of salt

(these amounts except for the flour were all just guesses)

3/4 cup of water, plus added some buttermilk because it was too thick, but I think it worked better being thicker

2 eggs separated

2 Tbs oil

Mix egg yolks, water and oil together and stir into flour mix until there are no lumps

Beat egg whites and fold them in, and bake immediately in waffle iron.

I even made some blueberry sauce to go with them--haha, I showed him!!!

My mix was thicker than his and his waffles burned and looked funny whereas mine came out a perfect golden brown.

Hope you are soon enjoying waffles. Before I found out about the potato starch we used some Trader Joe's waffle mix which was quite good.

A lot of people rave about Van's gluten-free waffles. I haven't tried them, as I don't eat prepackaged stuff.

mushroom: Try 1 tsp xanthan per cup of flour. That will reduce the thickness, and should help make a fluffier waffle.

I just recently used Whole Foods 365 Gluten Free Pancake and Waffle mix to make Pancakes. They were very good. I would imagine if the pancakes are good, the waffles would also be good...

Several years ago I purchased Van's Waffles, and they were fantastic. I now have a serious problem with soy,and dairy, so I can no longer eat Van's. I really miss them. Until you can come up with a good "from scratch" recipe, Van's will get you over the hump.

I use this recipe:

Open Original Shared Link

I reduce the milk or sub to 1 1/2 cups. Good with or without: nuts, berries, mini chocolate chips.

You can use honey, agave nectar, maple syrup, etc. for the sweetener. I keep ripe bananas in the freezer...just thaw and mash. Keep a bag of cooked ones in the freezer...so easy!

They are amazing!

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By RMJ · Posted

      The normal ranges can vary for the tissue transglutaminase and gliadin antibody celiac tests because the units aren’t absolute.  Could you please tell us what the normal ranges are for the laboratory used? If her tissue transglutaminase results are 10-fold above the normal range some would diagnose her on that alone.  Endomysial antibody ranges are more standardized, and a titer of 1:5 would usually be normal.  Might that be the normal range and not her result?  Her total immunoglobulin A is normal for her age. (This is tested because if low, then the other IgA tests might not be valid).

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By Samanthaeileen1 · Posted

      Hello there! New to celiac community, although I have lots of family in it.  My two year old was just diagnosed with celiac disease based on symptoms and bloodwork.  symptoms (swollen belly, stomach hurting, gagging all the time, regular small vomit, fatigue, irritability, bum hurting, etc) she got tests at 18 months and her bloodwork was normal. She just got tested again at 2 1/2  because her symptoms were getting worse and these were her results :   Tissue Transglutaminase Ab, IgA 58.8 Unit/mL (High) Endomysial Antibody IgA Titer 1:5 titer (Abnormal)   Gliadin Antibody IgA < 1.0 Unit/mL Gliadin Antibody IgG 8.5 Unit/mL Immunoglobulin A 66 mg/dL Her regular pediatrician diagnosed her with celiac and told us to put her on the strict gluten free diet and that we wouldn’t do an endoscopy since it was so positive and she is so little (26lbs and two years old). I’m honestly happy with this decision, but my family is saying I should push and get an endoscopy for her. It just seems unnecessary and an endoscopy has its own risks that make me nervous. I’m certain she has celiac especially with it running in mine and my husbands family. We are now thinking of testing ourselves and our 5 year old as well.  anyways what would y’all recommend though? Should we ask for an endoscopy and a GI referral? (We are moving soon in 5 months so I think that’s part of why she didn’t refer us to GI)

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      This is really helpful  I had not considered sugar alcohols or inulin as triggers. Thanks for the practical baking tips too color coding and baking G F first makes a lot of sense.

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern.

      sorry a bit confused so I should take my B complex along with Objective Nutrients Thiamax for TTFD but what about a Benfotiamine to take. The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.
