Oreos

I recently posted a chocolate sugar cookie recipe so I thought why not make them into Oreos...it can be done! It worked!!

Gluten Free Oreos

In saucepan melt together:

4 T. butter (shortening should work)

2 T. dark chocolate chips

Remove pan from heat and stir in:

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup Hershey's Special Dark baking cocoa

1/2 tsp. vanilla

Then stir in:

1 egg

Mix well and stir in:

1 cup gluten-free flour mix (I used sorghum, tapioca and cornstarch)

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. xanthan gum

dash of salt

Mix well. Put pan in fridge to chill dough. (My dough was rock hard so I just spooned it out like hard ice cream and it softened fast so don't worry about it)

When dough is not sticky, roll into 1" balls (I got 36). Place balls onto cookie sheet. Press dough with a glass to flatten. Bake in preheated 375 degree oven for 7-10 minutes. Let cool and frost with stuffing.

Stuffing:

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

1/4 cup Spectrum shortening

1/2 tsp. vanilla

2 tsp. hot water

Beat together with a mixer until fluffy. Frost and sandwich 2 cookies together.

You might try tinting with green or red food coloring and add some mint flavoring to make holiday Oreos. I didn't have any mint to try it :( Enjoy!

Use unfrosted cookies for pie crust crumbs, I would try it but I would need to make a new batch :ph34r:

Just a thought: the cookies may absorb moisture from the frosting and get soft so you may want to frost a few at a time. Store unused frosting in a covered container.

Cookies for breakfast experiment (yummy taste test) :P

I frosted some cookies and kept in a container. The cookies I didn't flatten with a glass are softer but they were before I frosted them. The cookies I flattened with a glass were still crunchy. The unfrosted cookies in the same container still had a crunch. Shortening might give them a better crunch. Baking them an extra minute could help too.

Have fun experimenting!!!

      @trents I’m pretty sure what I’m left with when separating celiac to other causes is my 10% being a virus. The one I had about 3 weeks before taking this TTG test. Everything I’ve read says type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, hepatitis and some viruses are what could cause the elevation. The other blood tests I had I can compare things against.  I’m going to give your article a thorough read. My support in my circle is very small at the moment.  @knitty kitty I think before EGD I would like to do the DNA test. I’m going to start keeping a better journal also.  I’ve read a crazy amount of these “articles” - these two I’ve not seen. Some articles spell celiac differently. Thank you for sharing! I’m gonna dive into those.   I started seeing the functional medicine doctors from fluctuations in my hormones and major anxiety. Recently I realize it’s mostly health anxiety also so this is more challenging to depict real from imaginary thus all the research and the back and forth. I know anxiety to be a common symptom in perimenopause. I’ve fought it my whole life however. Likely due to lots of different trauma but seeing her was my last ditch effort to try something to avoid SSRIs, HRT, etc. She told me not to blame everything on my hormones when there could be an underlying problem, so she ran some tests to see if anything stood out. The TGG tests stood out.  I do find it very interesting now that I think about it that I don’t desire bread, pasta and pizza. Sometimes yes, but mostly no. I guess I didn’t give that much thought. Also didn’t realize that those foods do contain more gluten than the tortillas and cake/baked goods. About 3 months ago I started ordering meal kits to make dinner easier. I went back over the menus that I picked. I have probably had bread and pasta a hand full of times over the last couple months prior to having that blood test. We used to get pizza every Friday and stopped doing that also. I’m all fairness about 2 months leading up to these blood tests I had less gluten containing foods than I thought.    I’ve been praying for wisdom. Thankful to find some counsel from people who I believe have dove harder into this than most doctors have. Thanks for all the advice. It’s appreciated more than you know. 💕

      @knitty kitty My whole family has migraines and I started getting them at age 19, so I'm not sure mine are related to gluten, although I do feel like obviously the more inflamed my whole system is, the more likely I am to suffer from more of these things.

      @Alibu, Just wanted to add... Migraines can be caused by thiamine insufficiency.  I used to have them, regularly, but haven't since supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and Magnesium Threonate.  These forms get into the brain easily and really improve migraines.  I do still get Ophthalmic migraines which are triggered by computer screens.  It's permanent damage from nutritional deficiencies.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace test is a more accurate test for sufficient thiamine. Keep us posted on your progress!

      @knitty kitty Thank you for those, I will definitely bring them up!  I did send a message to my doctor basically asking what they think so I'll go from there.  He may very well just decide that this was enough to diagnose celiac, but I have no clue what his thoughts are right now.  I also asked for a second opinion on the pathology.

      @HilaryM, Are you eating a diet high in carbohydrates?  You might find a Paleo diet easier on your digestive system.  A Paleo diet can promote changes in  intestinal flora, effectively starving out SIBO bacteria.   Be wary of gluten free processed foods.  Many are not enriched or fortified with vitamins and minerals lost in processing like gluten containing foods are.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing with vitamins and minerals while healing.  Vitamins are organic compounds that the body cannot make and so must get from the diet.   Supplementing ensures our bodies get a fair chance to absorb the essential nutrients it needs.
