Hodgson Mill

I'm on day 11 of gluten-free and was lamenting Oreos earlier today. I skeptically bought my first gluten-free baking mix - Hodgson Mill Cookie Dough. And now I know that all's right with the world. I CAN DO THIS! I think it was actually yummier than regular dough!

What kind of cookies did you make? I'm trying to prepare myself for the holidays. I usually make lots of cookies with my kids. :(

I haven't tried any cookie mixes, although I was impressed with Gluten-Free Pantry's truffle brownie mix (even more awesome with a few tbsp of peanut butter swirled into the batter before baking) and all-purpose flour (used to successfully replace gluteny flour in a standard cranberry-nut bread recipe).

So far I've done my gluten-free cookies from scratch with mostly good results. The best results were from the 36-Hour Chocolate Chip cookie recipe on the Open Original Shared Link blog. The recipe made a HUGE batch and my gluten-eating family and friends scarfed them down. This year the same bloggers are posting a new gluten-free cookie recipe every weekday in December up until the 23rd. Here's the first post for Jam Tarts and a list of what they'll be posting later in the month: Open Original Shared Link

Long story short: you can totally still make all sorts of cookies with your kids. Have fun, good luck, and happy holidays!

TPT, I used Hodgson Mills Cookie Mix and added chocolate chips. They were in my local Kroger and were less than $2.50 for a box that made two dozen decent-sized cookies.

I also figure that there are other cookies that I grew up with that I could make if I get the gluten-free version of the cereals to make them....like Rice Crispy treats and those cute wreaths made of Corn Flakes.

I haven't seen those yet in my store but I know I've seen other Hodgson Mill products. I've had great success making the Betty Crocker gluten-free chocolate chip cookies. And you can also make a really good peanut butter cookie without even buying any special flours: Open Original Shared Link

Easiest peanut butter cookies in the world.

1 cup peanut butter

1 cup sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1 egg

dash of salt

mix these few ingredients together. roll into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet. flatten cookies with fingers or bottom of a glass whatever works.. bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes until they start to brown on the edges. Remove from oven and COOL THEM COMPLETELY ON THE COOKIE SHEET so they don't crumble. Once they are completely cooled they are the best peanut butter cookies I've ever had. My non gluten free son loved them too.

Other great holiday goodies that are naturally gluten-free are stuffed dates, pecan turtles, and fudge.

Thanks for the review! I just added this book to my Amazon wish list (as if I need another gluten-free cookbook). Let us know what other awesome things you bake from recipes in this book.

One thing I determined with the cookies is that their recipe calls for more of their flour mix than my regular 'gluten' cookie recipe calls for and they were a bit floury. Next time I'm going to cut the flour mix by 1/2 cup and see if that helps. They were awesome but not like my 'pre-gluten cookies' and maybe that's not possible to copy them but I'm going to try!!! :)

      Blood results

      By Wends · Posted

      Hopefully the biopsy gives a conclusive and correct diagnosis for your daughter. Im in the UK and have been in the situation a few years ago of trying to rule celiac in or out after inconclusive results. Many symptoms pointing to it including the classic symptoms and weight loss and folate and iron deficiency. You have to play a waiting game. I also had the label of IBS and likely food allergy. Genetic test showed low risk for celiac but not no risk. It sounds like the Gastroenterologist is on it and hopefully will diagnose what it is correctly. Food hypersensitivity (allergy) can also cause similar symptoms and inflammation as well as mimicking IBS. Milk / dairy and wheat (cereal grains) being the biggest culprits. The “oesophagitis” and “gastritis” you mentioned can be caused by another gastrointestinal disorder called “eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders”. These are named depending on which part of the gastrointestinal tract is affected. For example eosinophilic oesophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and more rare eosinophilic colitis. They are antigen (allergen) driven. When the blood test measuring anti-ttg antibodies is positive in absence of a positive ema test - which is more specific to celiac, this can also suggest food hypersensitivity (allergy). Usually delayed type allergy similar to celiac but not autoimmune if that makes sense. In this case the ttg antibodies are transient. Which happens. I’ve first hand experience. For info, evidence of villous atrophy too can be caused by food hypersensitivity. Not just by celiac disease. In Egid disorders the six food elimination diet, under a dietitian and gastroenterologist care, is the dietary protocol to figure out the culprit or culprits. Sometimes only two food elimination diet is used at first. The number one culprit is milk protein / dairy. Followed by wheat, eggs, soy, fish and seafood, and nuts. Most are only reactive to one food group or two. Most are only reactive to milk. Hope this is a helpful reply.

      Inconclusive results

      By Wends · Posted

      Wow, the system is crazy isn’t it? Maybe switch Doctors if you can. It’s surprising from what you’ve written it seems obvious it’s celiac disease. The “potential” diagnosis means celiac is developing and it basically just hasn’t done enough gut damage to be captured on the biopsy yet, and meet that “criteria” to satisfy the current system! Given the overwhelming evidence already - family history, positive ttg and ema. And your own experience and intuition which counts far more. And the labs being reproduced after gluten elimination and reintroduction- elimination and reintroduction diet is the gold standard too. Shame on the Doc and the system. What was the Marsh score? I’m guessing not 0 if it’s potential celiac. Meaning the autoimmune process has been triggered and started. Your daughter is obviously very healthy and her immune system is putting up a good fight. It can take years for the gut damage to build to a point where there’s overt symptoms and then a conclusive diagnosis, hence why many celiacs receive diagnosis later in life. You can prevent it. See the positive and the gift in that. Hopefully the gluten challenge confirms it, but if it doesn’t maybe get a second opinion?

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By cristiana · Posted

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!
