Bob's Red Mill Baking Mix

I bought a case of this stuff a while back and it's just been sitting in my pantry. It is the most awful stuff to make sweets with. I've tried chocolate cookies - even a chocolate cake that was so covered in frosting you could hardly see the cake - but it's still GROSS! I can't get over the garbanzo bean taste. So I got to thinking - maybe it will be better in veggie and meat dishes.

Anyone have recipes they've tried with this that have been successful?

Nope... nothing that's been successful, AND I've gotten sick from cross contamination from it because the plant isn't completely gluten free... even though the gluten-free products are supposedly produced in a "clean" part of the facility, I know someone that has toured the factory and said that there is FLOUR dust EVERYWHERE... so I don't know how "clean" any part of that facility can be... JMHO of course... I know they Elisa batch test, but what if they missed some???

You may want to try making things that have a heartier taste that mix better with the garbanzo bean flavor. Pumpkin bread, for instance, with plenty of cinnamon and honey, can better withstand the flavor than a sweet cake. Peanut butter cookies (or muffins) may also work well with that flavor. Given that you can taste the flavor so strongly, you may want to cut it with another type of flour to reduce the taste.

You may already know that the Bob's Red Mill web site has recipes.

As a last resort, you can use the flour as filler for salmon, tuna, and hamburgers (buffalo burgers) and meatloaf. It won't go to waste that way!

I was suprised to read these comments as I was sure bob's red mill was safe. I have contacted the company and they have assured me that the products are tested and produced in a seperate facility. They even offered to test any flours I wanted to be sure they were free of contamination! They have a lot of recipes that I use on their website! I think they're great- it could just be that you don't like bean flours.

      How long does it take to gain weight?

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
