I tried a couple of things (pie crust and biscuits) with disasterous results. Better to stick to the well developed specialty recipes for me.

I've done things like gingersnaps and biscotti using gluten-free flour mix. Came out good. You just have to remember to add 1 tsp xanthum gum or they fall apart.

Pamela's pancake and baking mix. I sub it for flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda and 1/2 the fat listed in the ingredients. Works in pretty much everything but yeast breads :)

For things like thickening a sauce or soup or in a casserole or coating food to fry, yes I've had success. For baked goods (especially bread) I don't recommend it. Gluten free baking is very different from gluten baking. It's best to stick with some tried and true recipes until you figure out things like what the consistency of the "dough" should be. I put dough in quotes because many of the things I have tried have been more of a batter or a thick spread than dough. Bread typically doesn't need to be kneaded as much if at all. For example, I made the Open Original Shared Link last week and it was SO good, but when I was putting it in the oven I had doubts about how it would turn out because my dough was more of a batter.

I use Pamela's a lot too. It works very well in some recipes. I also use it for gravies, roux, and dredging. As long as you don't mind the almond meal it works very well. I even use it to make mac & cheese. Like above says make sure you omit the baking soda/powder and salt. I've never reduced the fat in my recipes though.

I've had good results with muffin recipes. However, all of them have had one thing in common-oats. I picked recipes that called for a large percentage of oats-maybe 50% and then subbed a sorghum blend for the all-purpose or whole wheat flour. I also added X-gum according to the instructions/chart on the gum package. I figured that with the types of recipes that I picked I would only be changing up half the flours and because the other part-oats(certified gluten-free;)) would remain unchanged, the chances for changing the overall chemistry of the recipe would be lessened. It's worked well so far. That's my plan and I'm sticking with it!

I've made cookies, muffins, quick breads and cakes with substituting my gluten free blend for the amounts of regular flour. I've had to experiment with the amount of xanthan gum, but other than that the recipes I have made have been really good.

      @Sarah Grace,  Thank you for the update!  It's so good to hear from you!  I'm glad Thiamine, B Complex and magnesium have helped you.  Yes, it's important to take all three together.    I had to quit eating cheese and nuts a long time ago because they triggered migraines in me, too.  They are high in tyrosine, an amino acid, found also in fermented foods like sauerkraut and red wine.   I found taking Tryptophan very helpful with migraines.  Tryptophan is a precursor of serotonin and people with migraines are often low in serotonin.  (Don't take tryptophan if you're taking an SSRI.)     This recent study shows tryptophan really helps. The association between dietary tryptophan intake and migraine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31254181/   For immediate respite from a migraine, try smiling REALLY BIG, mouth closed, tongue pressed against roof of mouth, and crinkle up your eyes like you just heard or saw the funniest thing...  This causes an endorphin release in the brain.  Usually it's the funny event, then the endorphin release and then the smile.  Smiling first makes the endorphin center think it missed something and it catches up quickly by releasing endorphins after the big crinkle eyed smile.  Must make crinkly eyes with smile or it won't work.  If you do this too frequently within a short time frame (several hours), you can deplete your endorphins, but you'll make more in a couple of hours, so no worries. Get your thyroid checked, too.  Migraines are also seen in low thyroid function (Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism).  Celiac and thyroid problems go hand in hand.   Vitamin D helps, too.  Low Vitamin D is found in migraine.   I'm so glad you're doing better.

      Its been a complete nightmare dealing with all these health issues one thing after another and being told many different things.I am looking for a new primary care physician considering when I told my past doctor of 25 years I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet and now this year at age 54 no longer able to push considering Im always exhausted, leg pain , stomach,skin and eye issues,high blood pressure to name a few all worsen because I was a  school bus driver and few years until my immune system went to hell and was fired because of it.Im still struggling now, Im sibo positive and been told im not celiac and that I am.I have a hernia and dealing with menopause. Its exhausting and is causing depression because of non medical help. Today I saw another gastrointestinalist and he said everything im feeling doesn't add up to celiac disease since my ITg levels are normal so celiac disease is under control and it's something else. I for got I had Barrett's esophagus diagnosed in 2007 because recent doctors down played it just like my celiac disease. Im currently looking for a pcp in my area because it is affecting me personally and professionally. Im told since celiac looks under control it's IBS and I need to see a therapist to control it. Gastrointestinalist around here think only food consumption and if ITG looks normal its bit celiac disease it's something else. Is this right? This is what im being told. I want medical help but told its IBS.Im feel lost by " medical team "

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      These are labeled gluten-free: https://www.amazon.com/Corn-Husks-Tamales-Authentic-Flavorful/dp/B01MDSHUTM/

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.
