I usually bake from scratch, but wanted to try this product. It is actually very good. Nice to have on hand for a quick snack. You have to keep an eye on it, though, because it took less time to bake than what the instructions say. I wish I had some ice cream to put on it, but I am pretty much snowed in. <_<

The devils food is great as is I just don't bake it as long as the directions state. The yellow is so so as is. I thought it to be a little on the dry side and cornbread like texture. I now add 2 oz of softened cream cheese to the batter and it turns out great. I bet sour cream or ricotta would work well too. I made two of the yellow cake with the addition for my youngest son's 6th birthday and the whole thing was gone the next day. My gluten eating husband was the one who put the biggest "dent" in it. :P

About yellow cake mixes.

I have a Pumpkin Gooey Butter Cake recipe from Thanksgiving (which I haven't made) that uses 1 box yellow cake mix, 1 egg, and 1/2 cup melted butter, mixed well, and patted into the bottom of a prepared 9x13 baking pan, This would be the "crust" I suppose.

Not a gluten-free recipe, but I'm thinking it could be adapted to gluten-free by simply using the Betty Crocker yellow cake mix. Kind of expensive "crust", but most gluten-free products are. I'm also wondering if one could use this for Cheesecakes, pies, etc.?

best regards, lm

Oh btw, the "top" of that recipe is eggs, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, cream cheese, and pumpkin pie filling.

There's a thread somewhere else about this book, but if you're going to use the BC Cake Mixes, look for The Cake Mix Doctor Bakes Gluten Free. I borrowed a copy from the library and like it enough that I am going to buy my own. I'm pretty sure there's a recipe in there about making a crust with cake mix.

larry mac, would you please post the whole recipe . . . either here or start a thread in recipes. My family is all about all things pumpkin.

Regarding the BC cake mixes . . . that yellow cake mix really comes out dry whenever I make it as a cake. When I make cupcakes, they turn out just fine. When I bought the devil's food, I automatically just made cupcakes assuming it would do the same (don't know if it really would or not). I like my "from scratch" recipe better, but sometimes convenience wins out.

The yellow cake mix makes the BEST soft and chewy (not cake like) sugar cookies. They taste like the real deal. The recipe is on the Betty Crocker gluten free page. I have made them a bunch of times. They taste great with Nestle milk choc. chips mixed in too.

I just crush chex cereal with pecans a a bit of butter in the food processor. Makes a great cheesecake crust.

If you want a seriously sinful cheesecake crust, try using Pamela's dark chocolate choc. chip cookies as the base. Totally to die for...if you're a chocolate lover, of course :P

This sounds great...not to mention that it doesn't cost an arm and a leg!

Works for any recipe that requires a press in crust. ie:magic bars Open Original Shared Link

Thanks! I've been making those Magic Cookie Bars since the 1960's. I gave my DIL my box of graham cracker crumbs when I was first diagnosed. I should surprise her with some of these...I'm sure it will be a surprise, too!

Any gluten free cereal works and crushes nicely in a food processor. I have also thrown in gluten free gingersnaps for a crust for a pumpkin cheesecake and the natures path gluten free honey cornflakes.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Try adding some Thiamine Hydrochloride (thiamine HCl) and see if there's any difference. Thiamine HCl uses special thiamine transporters to get inside cells. I take it myself. Tryptophan will help heal the intestines. Tryptophan is that amino acid in turkey that makes you sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner. I take mine with magnesium before bedtime...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I live in the upper mid-west and was just diagnosed with marsh 3c celiac less than a month ago. As a 51 year old male, I now take a couple of different gluten free vitamins.

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +
