Hi everyone,

My weekend baking project is to bake this bundt cake. I just wondered if anyone has tried this recipe. I got it from:

Open Original Shared Link

It looks so delicious, and I just got a new bundt pan for a birthday present. Can't wait to try it. Will probably use a flour mix consisting of white rice flour, sorghum, and buckwheat flours because those are the kinds I like. Might try mixing some sweet rice flour in it, too, or maybe not. Have never used sweet rice flour and someone said it changes the consistency.

Would love to hear if anyone has tried this and which flours you used. I'm just in a pumpkiney mood. It finally turned cool here in Indy. Yeh!

YUMMMMM!! Have not made it, but if I did (and I might!) I would use Pamela's pancake/baking mix and decrease the butter to 1 stick or omit the butter and use 1/2 cup light olive oil instead (more moist cake). I'll let you know if I try it this weekend!

Sounds great! Also found some other butter substitute ideas on this thread here in this forum:

Yeah, I try to go as whole and natural as I can-NO margerine or the like. I use virgin coconut oil, EVOO for no heat cooking, light olive oil for baking and sauteeing as well as butter. It's the only dairy product I do. I like butter for cookies but oil for cakes!

So, how would that affect the texture if you substituted 1/2 cup light olive oil for 2 sticks of butter?

When I use Pamela's, I've found that since the mix contains almond flour, it acts as a fat, so I'm able to decrease the fat in a recipe by 1/2. I've found that using oil in cakes and muffins as opposed to butter yields a lighter, more moist product. I use the light olive oil because it can be heated to higher temps withour going rancid so it doesn't change the flavor of the cake. I won't use canola, corn, safflower, etc... because they're so highly processed and carcinogenic. (I'm a bit of a granola :P )

Thanks for the information. Note to self: go to the grocery AGAIN and purchase LIGHT olive oil and SMART BALANCE :)

Can you do dairy? If so, I'd stay away from the Smart Balance too. My 2cents :)

Also, I bake a ton, so for me it's cheaper to buy the olive oil from Costco!

Thanks! I don't do much dairy. Just put it into the oven using butter b/c wanted to get it done before starting supper. Also, made some minor changes such as used pumpkin pie spice instead of allspice. I'll let you know how it turned out.

I just looked at the recipe again to make a list of ingredients and realized that it says she got the recipe from the Libby's website--I have made this before, I thought the directions looked familiar! It was good :)

We enjoyed it very much last night. The consistency is EXCELLENT! Next time, I will probably use some coconut flour or almond flour, though. Let me know how yours turns out.

I imagine the flavor will improve after freezing in individual pieces. Usually does. That has been my experience, anyway.

I agree with the freezing! I have a small cake business on the side and I freeze ALL my cakes for at least 2 days before decorating. The difference is impressive! I'm going to make the cake today, I'll totally let you know!

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam. The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach. The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery. Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years. Close call!

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      I had MRI scan a few years ago showing everything normal, and now it's no longer triggering the nerve pain when I bow my head today - it only seemed to happen yesterday, and that was the only time it happened! Just seemed weird as no movement has caused my usual nerve pain before. It's normally just random.

      COVID-19 a Possible Trigger for Celiac Disease in Those with Genetic Risk

      This hypothesis certainly lines up with my experience. Avoided getting Covid until August 2022. Celiac diagnosis three months later, and they think they caught it early (not a ton of damage in my EGD). I'd suspected the connection before, so it's nice to see researchers are interested in this question.

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Very good pizzeria with small dining room in back of the restaurant. The owner's daughter has celiac & they have gluten free pizza & a gluten free menu. Some items from the regular menu can be made gluten free also. They have a lunch menu which we ordered from & my chicken with spinach & mozzarella over gluten-free penne was delicious. They also have Tuesday night pasta specials & Thursday night chicken pasta specials. We plan on going back for dinner soon.
