this website has some fantastic recipes for yeast breads, including a french bread recipe. I think the key to successful bread is a combination of a bunch of flours. Open Original Shared Link

Have you had joint issues before? The other person I knew that had this dx also had an iron overload (hemochromatosis) which can damage joints and cause them to lock. If you haven't had your iron/ferritin levels checked, you might want to.

These are delicious, I use Better Batter gluten free flour in them and they store really well. We used to have them (non gluten-free, from the market) when my kids were younger and they loved them. I was tickled when I found this recipe and was able to alter it. Corn Toasties 1 stick unsalted butter, melted 1/2 c + 2 T sugar 2 eggs 1 t vanilla...

this is super easy and tasty: you could leave the cinnamon out. Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Squares 1 1/2 cups quick cooking oats 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup milk 1 large egg, lightly beaten 1 large mashed banana 1/4 cup creamy...

If you have a good all purpose gluten free flour, you could try your recipes with that. I've had pretty good luck that way: I use Better Batter. In some cases you may have to adjust your liquids because gluten free flours act like a sponge, so it is a matter of experimenting. I also find that recipes with buttermilk, yogurt or cream seem to turn out best...

this made my day (you have no idea how this made my day) thank you.

My daughter was having stomach pains, bowel issues (constantly) and severe migraines. After I was dx'd and had started the 'diet', and I was commenting on how much better I was feeling I started encouraging her to give it a try. (she had been tested for celiacs, her endo showed some villi were "flattened" but he would not give a dx of celiac at the time)...

UPDATE: so I had my appointment with the new gastro doc, and it was, I guess uneventful. She seems mystified about what is causing the pain, as I am. I am going for an ultrasound of my gallbladder/liver this week and then an endoscopy in June, although that would be to really just check for an ulcer or stomach damage as she didn't expect to see any...

I recently started keeping a food journal, so hopefully that will help, although it even feels like water starts a chain reaction of pain. I was wondering about the "delayed reaction" thing, because sometimes it feels like if I've eaten something, I have the bowel issue 2 or 3 days later. Almost like I can 'trace' it's path, if you know what I mean. I...

thank you, and good luck to you as well.

it's hard to tell how much cake batter this is going to make, etc...and therefore what pan size you would use, which would effect the baking time. Does it make 12 or 24 cupcakes? usually a 24 cupcake recipe will yield 2 8"-9" layers. those I would bake for 25-30 min. at 350. but I would also be "toothpick" checking at the 25 min mark. The worst thing to do...

I was in the hospital in March for an intractable migraine. Had been there 3 days, severe pain, many tests run, lots of narcotics. the ...maybe.... 29 year old on call resident who was an idiot from the moment I checked in ordered a pregnancy test. When the nurse told me, I sat up in the bed, yelled at the top of my lungs, "You tell him to...

I haven't posted in a while, but it seems as though I'm right back where I started. I've been strictly following the gluten-free diet since Summer 2010, with only a few cross contaminations, and the occasional (maybe twice?) purposeful "cheat". Yet I can't seem to eat anything that doesn't feel like I've just swallowed a bag of rocks as they make their way...

just a quick thought, I know you mentioned your iron levels were low, but have they checked you for hemochromatosis? that would mean you are actually storing iron, but the symptoms include fatigue, among other various things that can seem like chronic fatigue. I was diagnosed to the surprise of everyone (including my gastro) almost 2 years ago, and still...

I made this using all rice flour (I have a severe taste aversion to buckwheat) and it is fantastic! the recipe made 2 loaves, and I only used the lemon glaze on one....the other loaf turned out like a "regular" banana bread and even fooled my son, who had multiple slices with nutella on it. I did think it was a wee bit "buttery" and would cut down on the...
