What To Do With These Flours?

I have these flours leftover from a bread mix (that failed several times :P haha), other random flours that I was using and I have no idea what to use them with. I stuck them in the freezer for now so they don't go bad.

Here's what I have,

1 cup sweet sorghum flour

1/4 cup brown rice flour

1 1/2 cup tapioca flour

3 cups potato flour

Any ideas on what I could use these for?

Thanks!

IMO these are great. It's a bit of work but what gluten-free cooking isn't. the "OR " options just lighten up the fat content, either way works great.

sub the white for brown rice flour, and try a a half batch if you want. My girl hates zucchini and loves these muffins, I processed the veggies and it worked nicely.

CARROT ZUCCHINI MUFFINS

2/3 cup sorghum flour or brown rice flour

2/3 cup tapioca flour

2/3 cup white rice flour

3/4 cup of granulated sugar

3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum

2 teaspoons of baking powder

3/4 teaspoon of baking soda

2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice or 2 tsp total cinnamon and nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup plain or vanilla low-fat yogurt

1 large egg or egg white only

5 tablespoons of melted butter or olive oil

2 1/2 cups carrot and zucchini, grated or shredded

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Prepare the muffin tins with liners or grease them really well. Whisk the dry ingredients together well in a large bowl. In a med. bowl, combine the egg, yogurt, and melted butter. Make a hole in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients; stir until combined. Add the grated zucchini and carrot. Spoon the batter into muffin cups. Bake for about 20-25 minutes- it may take a little longer in some ovens, but overdone gluten-free muffins are terrible-keep an eye on them!

Makes about 18 muffins.

The potato flour will be the most difficult to use up so I'd just keep it in the freezer. It's a heavy flour and makes a good thickener for a creamy potato soup. I'm still on my original bag of potato flour, which I bought a long while ago.

I should dig out a yummy recipe for potato soup that I've had for a long while that calls for potatoes, broccoli and cheese (among other things)...I need to find it and post it in the recipe section. It was given to me by a friend who had celiac disease (unfortunately she passed away last fall).

Easy as I use those flours mainly.

You can interchange Sorghum flour for any rice flour in yuor recipes. For example, when you make bread or muffins and it calls for "rice flour" use sorghum. Did you know that Redbridge beer is sorghum beer and I luv it!

For the brown rice, use the 1/4 cup in a browned gravy. For the potato flour use in Potato soups or any soup when you want a thickener. For the tapioca flour, again you can use this in any recipe for muffins or cake. Tapioca is a lighter flour and is used alot in gluten free baking. Start reading the ingredients in whatever you are buying and you will see.

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
