Waffles

I sucessfully made waffles today! :P I had gotten rid of my waffle iron after I was diagnosed last year and I have not eaten any in over a year. My mom bought me a cuisinart waffle iron for Christmas and I thought, "I can do this." My first attempt about a week ago was a complete disaster. NASTY! :angry: I found a recipe online today that I thought I would try. I used a sorghum mix that I got from Purple. The only thing I did different was add a little bit of stevia extract powder, 2 TBSP of erythritol, and 2 tsp. xanthan gum. They were really good. My boys said they were "great, better than last time." The only trouble I had was over filling the iron and making a mess. :lol: Here is the link to the recipe:

FYI, the flour mix I used was 1 1/2 cups sorghum flour, 1 1/2 cups cornstarch, and 1 cup tapioca flour

Made waffles from the Tom Sawyer flour and a recipe off their website for Xmas morning and they were absolutely great! Not crumbly and very tender. I was also able to save a couple for the next day- popped them into the toaster and still great! Maybe try some.

I have used Tom Sawyer flour and it made great pancakes. Never made waffles, but I bet it would do well! :) Glad you liked them. I had also used Better Batter and it made horrible pancakes but great cakes. Otherwise I like my blend for every thing else. My non gluten free husband prefers the sorghum mix better because he does not like the grittiness of the rice based flour blends.

I am glad your waffles turned out! I used to hate waffles until I tried a gluten-free/vegan version and now that is the only recipe I make :rolleyes: (only kids are gluten-free). I make them with berries for my dh and choc chip for me. Berries and choc chip for oldest dd and plain for youngest dd :blink: Try them with choc chips, whipped cream and a drizzle of choc syrup for a special day if you can have dairy. Mini chips work best.

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?
