Pancake Syrup


GFreeMO

Recommended Posts

GFreeMO Proficient

I am allergic to pure maple syrup from the tree. It gives me hives. That being said, I need to find a pancake syrup that is gluten free. Karo has one called Pancake Syrup and their website says that all of their syrups are gluten free. It does list artificial flavors though. Anyone use this or know of anything else that I can use?

Thanks!

I love molasses or honey on pancakes. It's a different flavor than maple syrup, but any of the "pancake syrup" type products will have artificial maple flavoring.

Molasses is a great idea! Thanks!

What is the ingredient in the fake syrups that is bad for us? Is there hidden barley or something? Wheat would have to be listed so what makes them gluten-ey?

Nothing makes the ones that say gluten-free on the website gluteny. Some people don't like artificial flavors or artificial anything.

I always heard that the fake syrups were a no go as far as being gluten free. Are Aunt Jemima and Hungry Jack etc.? gluten free? I don't care if it's artificial, I just don't want gluten. :)

I just looked at the Hungry Jack lite ingredients. Not a lot of natural stuff but nothing jumps out at me that it contains gluten.

According to my "Is that gluten-free?" app, aunt jemimas are listed as gluten-free.

Dear Valued Consumer,

Thank you for taking the time to inquire about Pinnacle Foods Group, LLC and the products we produce which may be gluten-free. We appreciate your interest in our company and our products.

There is no gluten in the Log Cabin Butter Flavored Syrup, in Log Cabin Original and Log Cabin Lite. Log Cabin Country Kitchen syrups are also gluten free.

The caramel color used in LC Original syrup does not contain any gluten ingredients; product is 100% caramel color. There is no Barley in the Caramel Color of the Log Cabin syrups. Our caramel color suppliers do not use wheat or gluten as source material.

There is a flavor in the Sugar-Free Syrups that does contain barley, so the Log Cabin Sugar-Free syrups are not considered to be gluten-free. There has not been a formulation change to add or eliminate the gluten.

Our supplier has confirmed that the Rice Syrup used for the 100% Natural Log Cabin Syrup does not contain - nor is it processed using anything that contains gluten. Any gluten-containing materials are segregated from the non-gluten containing Rice Syrup.

While our manufacturing facilities follow the accepted good manufacturing practices, we do not have the flexibility of segregating production lines for the exclusive production of wheat-free items.

Since we are constantly improving our products, ingredients change on a regular basis which may affect gluten based ingredients. With that, we must recommend that you review the list of ingredients on the current package prior to purchase to ensure that you are meeting your specific dietary needs.

We appreciate the time you've taken to share your specific concerns with us, as it helps us to become aware of consumer needs. Thank you again for your contact.

Sincerely,

Hollie Allen

Thanks for posting this. My budget doesn't allow the pure maple syrup anymore, even though I really like it. It's nice to know the log cabin is safe. WooHoo I can have pancakes and waffles for supper again. :)

I've been eating Log Cabin with no problems and I am super sensitive with gluten. It's oky doky. :D

How about Steen's 100% Pure Cane Syrup? This is what I use, but of course it is made locally in Abbeville,Louisiana. DOn't know if you can get it where you are from. The website is www.steensyrup.com I find it much better tasting than maple syrup.

Another alternative to syrup is sweetened condensed milk or just plain butter and sugar. This is what I grew up on to use with pancakes. We would make really thin pancakes, top with butter and sugar and roll inot a log. This was called crepes.

I use jam. Way better than syrup! :)

My grandmother would make 'homemade syrup' with water and sugar and boil it until it got a little thick. I always loved it.

Thanks everyone for the info and wonderful ideas! I appreciate it so much!

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people. According to this study: This article explores other causes of flattened villi:

      Gluten testing is normally reported in ppm (parts per million), which is equivalent to mg/kg, not micrograms by itself. A result of <0.025 mcg only becomes meaningful if you know the sample size tested (for example, mcg per gram or per kg). If that value represents <0.025 mcg per gram, that would equal <25 ppm, which is above the gluten-free threshold; if it’s <0.025 mcg per kilogram, it would be extremely low and well within GF limits. Without the denominator, the result is incomplete. It’s reasonable to follow up with the company and ask them to confirm the result in ppm using a validated method (like ELISA R5)—that’s the standard used to assess gluten safety.

      Medication sensitivity is very real for many people with celiac and other autoimmune conditions, and it’s frustrating when that’s brushed off. Even when a medication is technically gluten-free, fillers, dose changes, or how your nervous system reacts—especially with things like gabapentin—can cause paradoxical effects like feeling wired but exhausted. The fact that it helped bloating suggests it may be affecting gut–nerve signaling, which makes sense in the context of SIBO, but that doesn’t mean the side effects should be ignored. You’re carrying a heavy load right now with ongoing skin, eye, and neurological uncertainty, and living in that kind of limbo is exhausting on its own. It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed and discouraged when systems and providers don’t meet you where you are—your experience is valid, and continuing to advocate for yourself, even when it’s hard, really does matter. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
