Muffin Or Bread Recipes?

I'm running low on stuff to eat breakfast, and as its finals week, I thought it would be a good idea to make a batch of muffins or some sort of breakfast bread. Does anyone have recipes to share? I have most of the common gluten-free flours and such, so having to go out and buy a bunch of ingredients shouldn't be an issue.

The easiest thing I do is take any regular. muffin or biscotti recipe and replace the flour with equal amounts of Bobs Red Mill all purpose baking mix and add I tsp xantham gum. Voila Easy. If i don't hve Bob's mix I used equal amounts of whatever gluten-free flours I have. I've used mixes of hazlenut flour with rice and corn flour etc. Just made chocolate walnut biscotti.

I don't have any actual mixes, just bags of the different flours. I'm sure I could probably find a recipe for a mix though.

I don't always have the mix but if I have a few kinds of gluten-free flours on hand I just mix 1/3 of each and it's always worked out fine with quick breds, muffins etc. I've always been a good cook and hardly measure. Sometimes it corn, rice and potato flour and others it might be hazlenut, corn and rice. As long as it is a flavor that isn't wierd with your other ingredients, experiment a bit.

I have made good banana bread with the following recipe. It would probably make good banana muffins too. Just reduce the baking time for muffins.

1/2 cup buckwheat flour

1/2 cup potato flour

1 cup tapioca flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 cup butter, slightly soft

1/2 cup honey

2 large eggs, beaten

3 large overripe bananas, mashed

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees

2. Mix dry ingredients (three flours, baking soda and salt) in a bowl

3. In another bowl cream together butter and honey. Then add bananas and eggs. Mash it all together until well mixed.

4. Mix the wet ingredients with the dry until well mixed.

5. Pour batter into a very well greased loaf pan.

6. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Are you both saying potato flour and not potato starch?

Good question...potato flour is a very heavy flour and is usually used very sparingly.

Tina, so are you saying hazelnut flour is one of your staples? Wow. Hadn't heard anyone else say that, but since you've been gluten-free since 1990, maybe I should consider that. It is VERY expensive at Whole Foods. Have never seen it anywhere else. Where do you buy it?

Believe it or not, I had amazing success making banana bread with the recipe on the back of the Domino sugar bag and just replacing the flour will all rice flour and adding a teaspoon of xanthan gum. That was the first thing I ever baked gluten free and I couldn't even tell the difference between mine and the one my boyfriend's mother baked the day before (I loved the stuff and was torn up about not being able to eat it anymore, and I HAD to try making it). So that was before I knew that baked goods just with rice flour are less than satisfactory. Apparently in this recipe it doesn't make a difference, really. So easy.

Here's the recipe:

      I agree, it so often overlooked! I live in the UK and I have often wondered why doctors are so reluctant to at least exclude it - my thoughts are perhaps the particular tests are expensive for the NHS, so therefore saved for people with 'obvious' symptoms.  I was diagnosed in 2013 and was told immediately that my parents, sibling and children should be checked.  My parents' GP to this day has not put forward my father for testing, and my mother was never tested in her lifetime, despite the fact that they both have some interesting symptoms/family history that reflect they might have coeliac disease (Dad - extreme bloating, and his Mum clearly had autoimmune issues, albeit undiagnosed as such; Mum - osteoporosis, anxiety).  I am now my father' legal guardian and suspecting my parents may have forgotten to ask their GP for a test (which is entirely possible!) I put it to his last GP that he ought to be tested.  He looked at Dad's blood results and purely because he was not anemic said he wasn't a coeliac.  Hopefully as the awareness of Coeliac Disease spreads among the general public, people will be able to advocate for themselves.  It is hard because in the UK the NHS is very stretched, but the fallout from not being diagnosed in a timely fashion will only cost the NHS more money. Interestingly, a complete aside, I met someone recently whose son was diagnosed (I think she said he was 8).  At a recent birthday party with 8 guests, 4 boys out of the 8 had received diagnosis of Coeliac Disease, which is an astounding statistic  As far as I know, though, they had all had obvious gastric symptoms leading to their NHS diagnosis.  In my own case I had  acute onset anxiety, hypnopompic hallucinations (vivid hallucinations upon waking),  odd liver function, anxiety, headaches, ulcers and low iron but it wasn't until the gastric symptoms hit me that a GP thought to do coeliac testing, and my numbers were through the roof.  As @trents says, by the grace of God I was diagnosed, and the diet has pretty much dealt with most of those symptoms.  I have much to be grateful for.

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees.  People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits.  Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease.   Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?

      I found out the age of 68 that I am a celiac. When I was 16, I had my gallbladder removed when I was 24 I was put on a medication because I was told I had fibromyalgia.   going to Doctor’s over many years, not one of them thought to check me out for celiac disease. I am aware that it only started being tested by bloodwork I believe in the late 90s, but still I’m kind of confused why my gallbladder my joint pain flatulent that I complained of constantly was totally ignored. Is it not something that is taught to our medical system? It wasn’t a Doctor Who asked for the test to be done. I asked for it because of something I had read and my test came back positive. My number was quite high.Are there other people out here that had this kind of problems and they were ignored?
