Apple Crisp With Steel Cut Oats

I'm a newly diagnosed celiac and trying to navigate through a new way to eat and make old favorites that I'd hate to lose. I was wondering if anybody out there has substituted steel cut oats in an apple crisp topping? I haven't been able to find any gluten-free-Oats where I live other than the steel cut type. If so, did you have to adjust your cooking time since they take so much longer to cook and use so much more moisture?

Personally I wouldn't trust steel cut oats unless they are specifically gluten-free...not sure how they'd work for a topping for apple crisp either. I've only been gluten free for 7 months and have not yet tried oats.

Roben Ryberg has a recipe in The Gluten Free Kitchen for apple crisp with a streusel topping and I found it here (scroll down to message #4). I've been wanting to try it but haven't yet. There are also some other ideas and links to recipes, too.

steel cut oats cook very differently from rolled oats (they need much more time, and often more liquid).

I make a crumb topping for baked apples (think apple pie without the crust) with a 1:1 sugar/flour ratio, a bit of cinnamon/cloves/nutmeg, and cut with enough butter to make it crumbly. For the flour, I often use brown rice and millet, but many flours would work with this.

this question was out a bit ago. Someone suggested Quinoa flakes. I haven't tried it, but is sounds good.

I went ahead and tried it using the bobs redmill gluten-free steel cut oats. I upped the oven temp. to 375 degrees instead of the 350 I usually bake on. The topping was deliciously crunchy, and a little chewier than the regular one I made pre-diagnosis with the quick oats. My DH actually said he preferred it this way, and begged me to make it again (but he also loves steel cut oats). Our kids gobbled it up too :)

Could you post a recipe of this? I have those oats and it sounds good!

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
