gluten-free Grain That's Not Processed With Nuts?

I am wondering if anyone here has a source for gluten-free flours or grains that are not processed in a facility with nuts/peanuts?

Thanks

Though I haven't asked, Open Original Shared Link might have what you're looking for. While their repackaging facility might be shared, I haven't had CC issues. What I don't know is if the gluten-free mills which produce the flours also process nuts. I'd like to think not. I'd suggest contacting them and see what they say.

I use Kinnikinnick flours as their facility is nut and peanut free. I have Celiacs, and my daughter has a nut/peanut allergy so this flour works for us. I live in Canada and Kinnikinnick is a Canadian company - I am not sure how available it is in the US. Hope this helps.

Thanks, I have emailed them and will let you know what I find out! I like that they are (relatively) local and organic. My dream come true so I am sure it is not going to work :(

They get it from other suppliers so they don't know if they are produced with nuts/peanuts :( I knew it was too good to be true!

I'd guess that the certified gluten-free flours are more likely processed alone. And even if not, such a mill would probably be more careful about CC from anything else they may process. Since nuts don't go through the same milling machine (at least I wouldn't think so), wouldn't the chances of CC be considerably lower than the kinds of processed foods which share lines?

It is possible but I am not willing to chance it with a 3 year old who can't really pinpoint an anaphylactic reaction. Maybe as he gets older but not now.

Ah, I see. I agree, given a serious reaction like that. I haven't checked, but I'd like to think there'd be a home test for nuts like there is for gluten.

I do know that Bouchard Family Farm grows and mills their own buckwheat flour, and that's the only thing they process. I like the way pancakes turn out with this flour, but I haven't tried using it alone in a bread recipe. It does work nicely when combined with other types I regularly use though. I think it may work alone in muffins and brownies however.

Coconut is usually well tolerated by persons with nut allergies, and there are companies which only process coconuts. So perhaps you'd find some uses for coconut flour too.

Another company to check out is Open Original Shared Link. I don't see any statements about nuts, but they don't sell nut flours. There is a contact page, so it should be easy to ask them.

Open Original Shared Link appears to only sell sorghum grain and flour.

Open Original Shared Link sells only teff.

Thanks SO much for all these links! I will get to researching them :) Truly, thank you so so much! I am excited now :)

Ooops...forgot the link for the buckwheat flour:

I actually get this one at a regular food store, so they apparently do get distributed.

My daughter has Celiac & anaphylaxis to peanut/tree nut. We use Authentic Foods Classic Blend Flour.

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
