Donut

So I'm Celiac and in the craving stage of pregnancy and who ever says that you don't crave glutened food is nuts. I have had the worst craving for a creme filled frosted longjohn. I tried to make one but failed. Has anyone been able to figure out how to make one, or (i cringe) a good enough one to think about buying? I'm about 6 months gluten free and am just not experienced enough to deal with, all of a sudden mind you, craving food I can't eat.

Ummmm, where do you live? I've never heardof a 'longjohn', I'm guessing you mean donut? I'll be happy to help you look up a place near you that might have something relatively close! Would boston cream pie work?

lol, um...i'm from iowa. I didn't know that wasn't a popular thing everywhere.... it is a rectangular donut with a hole at one end where they put cream filling in, then they frost it. kinda like a jelly filled donut but with cream and a different shape. I live in Missouri now, but the last one i ate was in iowa. Thanks for any help

Hi, I've never had these but from what I've read on here a lot of people enjoy them. Not filled, but frosted.....

Yeah, kinnikinnick makes good donuts.

I've had what you describe, around here (new england) we call them boston cream donuts, and they're round. Chocolate icing on top? Yeah, I miss those too. My only suggestions would be to get kinikinnick chocolate glazed donuts and dip them in vanilla pudding (they're REALLY good warm) or maybe find a gluten-free cream puff recipe and fill and top it like a donut.

We have a gluten free bakery in Chesterfield, Michigan called Celiac Specialties. They make the closet to the basic doughnut that would be filled and frosted like that. So make a filling and your frosting and get your self an order.

Good luck with your pregnancy!

I havn't tried this recipe yet, but it sounds like it would work.

Cream puffs

1 c. water

1/2 c. shortening

1/3 c. potato starch flour

2/3 c. rice flour

1/2 tsp. salt

1 TBS sugar

4 eggs

1. Combine water and shortening in Lg saucepan

2. Bring to rapid boil.

3. Mix flous, salt, sugar. Add to water and mix untill ball forms and mixture leaves the sides of the pan.

4. Remove from heat and let cool somewhat.

5. Using an electric mixer, Add unbeaten eggs, one at a time.

6. Drop by TBS unto greased bake sheet (2 in round, 1 1/2 in high).

7. Leave space to expand.

8. Bake at 450 for 20 min.

9. Remove from oven and prick with a knife to let steam escape.

10. When cool, cut in half, remove any excess dough, fill and frost.

There are recipes for dounuts in the internet. I've only made donut holes. Hope that helps.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions...

I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Insomnia help

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
