Need Help With Converting A Recipe


MissBecky

Recommended Posts

I found this recipe, and I was wanting to convert it to gluten-free. I have a bag of Bob's Red Mill gluten-free All-Purpose Flour, so I was curious if it's a matter of just substituting the same amount of regular flour for the gluten-free, or if it would be a different measurement.

Yes, in this situation you certainly could use Bob's Red Mill gluten-free AP flour because the end product would have the properties as in a regular cake. This cake is a fairly dense one (but in a good way!). If there is no Xanthan gum in the mix add 3/4 teaspoon. Be aware that the texture may be a touch different than regular cake but the difference may be very slight to unnoticeable to some.

When substituting gluten-free flours in breads, pizza crust, pastry, bagels, English muffins, doughnuts and so on it can get trickier than straight substitutions.

Good luck! Let us know how it turns out. Looks yummy!

      Hello, Jeff and yes, PTL! The word "marker" is typically used in connection with gene testing but gene testing is not usually where testing for celiac disease starts. It usually starts with blood work looking for antibodies that are more or less specific to celiac disease. The most popular antibody test ordered by doctors is the tTG-IGA test but there are others. Here is an overview: Do you have access to your medical record/test results online? What is your next step with this? I assume you are not yet eating gluten free.

      @lizzie42, I have dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks when I am exposed to foods high in iodine.  Iodine can cause dermatitis herpetiformis to flair up badly.  So I avoid high iodine foods like dairy products, crustaceans (shrimp, crab, lobster, shellfish), Eggs, and iodized table salt.  Spinach,  potatoes, kale, and kelp are high in iodine, too. The antibodies that cause dermatitis herpetiformis are tTg 3 IgA.  The tests for Celiac Disease measure tTg 2 IgA antibodies.  The dermatitis herpetiformis tTg3 antibodies can hang around for two years or more and become more active when exposed to iodine without having gluten present.  Dermatitis Herpetiformis is pressure sensitive and...

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      hi Ya Trent, I really like my gastroenterologist; he mentioned it casually. maybe he thought I knew it. These tele appointments are good for getting to the point. I think he used the marker word. I will ask. PTL.

      @MegRCxx, it is common for people with celiac disease to have other food intolerances as well. Most common offenders are oats (even gluten free oats) and dairy. Soy, eggs and corn are less common but not rare. So, factor into your consideration.
