Don't be afraid to try other breads. :rolleyes: Try some Chebe or gluten free pantry mixes.

Hopefully we will find out my daughter doesn't need to avoid all these things. ;) I just feel so lost not baking with eggs. That really adds to the texture of so many gluten free things.

I'm really the hold out of the family. I will not eat the bread, but once every three months or so. Garlic toast, a sandwich, or drowned toast with jam.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that I won't try other breads...just don't know if I ever want to try another Ener-G loaf. The Kinnikinnick English muffins are great! I really need to try and make my own bread and see how that works out.

Can you substitute flax seed and water (can't remember the ratio) for eggs?

I hope your daughter doesn't need to avoid all those things, too!

Replacing eggs is a scientific thing I haven't quite mastered! :D

Sometimes the replacement box stuff, applesauce, flax or baking soda and vinegar. Depends on the other ingredients to blend the taste, and how many eggs you are trying to replace.

She's been doing fine with peanut butter, soy, casein, hummus, and we are still trying treenuts. We are combating eosinophils so it is a 12 day reaction time.

I was really surprised with the new formula pizza crust from NRG. It is bland, but it has a lighter texture than most gluten free pizza crust. My husband makes a garlic butter flavor mixture for the outer crust. Yum!

Where did you pick up that crust, and would you be able to share the recipe for the garlic butter? I always struggle with stuff like that. :)

I ordered it by the case from am a zon.

My husband puts the crust in the oven for 10 minutes (naked). Melts butter, adds garlic powder, (maybe some onion salt too) puts it on the edges. (Sorry it's not more of an actual recipe.) Add the toppings and back in the oven for 10 more minutes. Like I said the crust is pretty bland without.

If you are going to shop on-line....

Go to goodsearch/Goodshop first. Choose your non-profit organization. (You can choose a Celiac support organization.) A percentage of your purchase not including tax or shipping will be donated to that organization if the merchant is participating in the program.

Good to know, and thank you for the recipe!

I make them pretty much the way I made them before celiac - its a thick batter, thicker than pancake, thinner than a muffin. After the batter rises for an hour or so, I cook them on a griddle using english muffin rings (you can use washed tuna cans that have the tops and bottoms cut out - but as those will eventually rust and can be rather sharp, I dropped the $5 a set on some rings through Amazon.) I sprinkled the griddle inside the rings with a little cornmeal and cook for 5 minutes or so and flip.

A bit more fiddly than making them in the oven - but I end up with english muffins that I tested out on some none-gluten avoiding family members... they like them better (and in some cases couldn't tell which was which) that the Thomas's English Muffins my family ate for years. Even have nooks and crannies! I am just about set with the plain - now I'm working on a parmesan/garlic, a blueberry, a cinnamon/sugar, and a sourdough!

Magpie, you are awesome! :lol: You should have a cooking blog! I would be there a lot. B)

~shuffles feet~

Ummm.... in about a week, it will be up and I'm working on a cookbook.

And I'm also going to start putting up videos of demo's on HOW to make the recipes (born from it would have been REALLY REALLY HELPFUL to have someone tell me the first time I made gluten-free bread "Oh, by the by, it's gonna look like cream cheese frosting - don't panic, it's fine!" :P )

When I get it up and running, do you want me to send you a link?

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens. I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium. I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells. When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
