Betty Crocker Cake Mix

I want to make a crumb cake this weekend but because the Betty Crocker mixes make a smaller amount than you would normally get from a traditional box mix I am going to make 2 boxes combined into 1 pan. Has anyone done this? I'm wondering what the baking time would be?

I have done this two different times now. The first time I mixed the choc and yellow and poured it into a 9x13 pan. I thought it was a little to thick for me. So next time I poured them into a 1/2 sheet pan and it turned out perfect. It was a little thinner (only about 2 inches instead of 3-4) but it was perfect with caramel frosting. The baking time was about the same for me. I am not sure what your elevation is. Make sure not to cook them too long they will get really dry.

CARAMEL FROSTING!!!!?

Would you plese share your recipe or provide information on gluten free caramel frosting?

My daughter's birthday is on the seventeenth and because she is restricted beyond gluten we are having a hard time with frosting.

Thank you!

I just wanted to report in that I made these tonight and they were a big hit!!! It was suggested (by hubby) to put the cream cheese mixture in the middle (partially fill muffin tin with batter, add a bit of the cream cheese mix and then finish filling with batter). I will try that next time. I wanted to try it on top this time because that was the way skinnyminny wrote it and sometimes things will naturally sink in. Anyway, thank you for posting. They were great and we will make it again!!!

Also, just for added info, I used 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. I also used regular cream cheese (because that's what I had), about a teaspoon of vanilla and three heaping tablespoons of powdered sugar. I did not melt the cream cheese but let it soften.

Ha exactly what I thought! I had a pumpkin craving and used what I had on hand. I am wondering if you could use the cake mix to make a pumpkin roll. But these are way easier no flipping out of the pan, rolling or messy powder sugar!

OH*MY*GOSH!

This is the best gluten free thing I have tasted- ever. I cant believe it!

They are just like the ones at starbucks... I sprinkled a little gluten free granola on each one and they turned out fantastic!

I do not own muffin pans so I looked at muffin pans today thinking about this pumpkin recipe. I may have to go back tomorrow to buy them. I found extra large muffin pans, only 6 muffins to one pan at a cost of $18 each at Bed, Bath and Beyond. Yep, I'm going to get them just for this recipe. The things we'll do for a good muffin!

Price those pans elsewhere...I bought the extra large 6 cup pan last year at Fred Meyer's and think I paid $6!

Also that size of pan makes great mini pies...I made apple, cherry, berry, cheeseburger, chicken alfredo, chicken and veg, turkey, ham and broccoli with cheese, breakfast style, Italian, taco, cheeseburger, baked bean, BBQ chicken...drop them in a baggie and freeze, heat and eat...my dd loves them.

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
