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.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
