Milk Substitute For Cooking/baking

I had my first successful dairy free baking today. I made the Betty Crocker gluten free choc. chip cookies with oil in place of the butter. They turned out great. I am so thankful that the choc. chips are dairy free!!

I now need to find a safe NUT free milk alternative for my pancakes and mashed pot. etc.

I know that Rice Dream is out. What are some safe rice milks? I can't have any nut or coconut milks so rice would be best. I found Pacific Foods rice beverage. I wonder if it's good for cooking.

What about Hemp? I say that because I bought some (haven't tried it, I'm chicken) since it doesn't have carageenan in it (trying to reduce iodine).

There is also hemp milk. I use unsweetened coconut milk (drink not canned) for my mashed potatoes and for baking, however before I discovered coocnut milk I would just substitute chicken broth for the milk in mashed potatoes and water worked fine for most pancake recipes. For butter I use light olive oil, palm shortening or Earth Balance (I just recently discovered tghe one that is soy free and dairy free and it's yummy).

Hemp milk sounds like it might be good. Any certain brand to look for that is safe?

Coconut milk makes me sick with digestive issues. I think it has a laxative effect on some people.

Where can I get palm shortening? Brand?

Thanks! ;)

I use Spectrum brand: Open Original Shared Link

I use it for greasing pans mostly but it also works well for making frosting or in baked goods.

When I was dairy free, I used Pacific Rice Milks--both the plain and the vanilla. It cooks up well--the vanilla is great for homemade puddings and things like that. I never had a problem subbing either one for milk.

I just use water in pancakes. With the buckwheat flavor, other seasonings and the toppings, expecting milk to add any extra flavoring that you'd notice doesn't happen.

I have put water, olive oil, garlic and a splash of vinegar in potatoes. (I am not dairy free now, but sometimes I do stuff that way anyway, because I don't do lactose in regular milk)

You can try Vance's Dairy free powder if the other things don't appeal to you or you cannot eat them. It is potato starch based.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
