Almond Flour Pancakes W/o Eggs.


Apache

Recommended Posts

I'm really hoping somebody can help me. I am intolerant to gluten, eggs, dairy, and cane sugar. I also have leaky gut and I'm trying to follow the Specific Carb diet. There is a recipe for almond flour pancakes in which you basically make them like regular pancakes, but with almond flour. This recipe calls for the use of eggs, but I can't eat eggs. Does anybody know of a way to make these pancakes without using eggs? I know potatoe flour can substitute eggs in cooking, but that isn't allowed in the Specific Carb diet. Are there any other options?

These pancakes look good because I have a hard time digesting things that aren't soft, plus I need to put on some weight. I'm about 25 pounds underweight. My experience with this diet so far is that all the animal protein I've been eating is causing me to have abdominal pains, so I thought I could maybe make these pancakes and spread some natural peanut butter on them. My thought is that this would be easy to digest and give me some good nutrition as well.

Thank you.

I don't have experience with the SCD but I did make a similar thing-muffins-because they were lowcarb and I was trying to gain weight too. They consisted of basically almond flour and eggs and a little baking powder or soda and some liquid. I have issues with eggs so I tried to cut back on them using flax meal as an egg replacer. I never did eliminate all the eggs but it was successful and I got it down to just one egg in a recipe that started with four. I ended up with other dietary issues and just didn't take the experiment any farther to see if it would work without any eggs. I just googled instructions for the flax meal egg replacer-adding hot water to it if I remember. Well anyway, that's my experince and I hope it's encouragement.

Can you tolerate things like coconut oil or avacados to add calories?

Thanks. I wasn't aware of flax meal. I'll try that.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
