Picked up this GF pop-tart today -

From my Too Good to Go box from Wild Blue Bakery, Toronto. Took a bite before I thought to snap a pic.

Genuinely pretty good and reminiscent of the real thing - strawberry jam inside.

It crumbled a bit but - I am pretty sure I remember a regular pop-tart doing the same? The sprinkles are a bit much for me but I think a gf/celiac kid would love the shit outta this!

Yes, I will eat two desserts this evening (as per the photo) 👍🏼

Costco Tonkotsu Ramen Broth

So this came out a few months ago. Finally got around to trying it. Not certified, but a few others I've heard from had no issues, so I went for it. I'm coeliac and had no issues as well. Delicious, great mouth feel, but a bit salty. I didn't even use a tare or anything else. I added a bit of water on my next bowl and found that more palatable.

Sold in 4 packs for $16ish, probably location dependent.

I'VE BEEN GETTING GLUTENED BY NUTS

This is the ultimate betrayal...I was looking at some packs of nuts that you buy in the supermarket, and some of them had candy so I checked if they were GF and they weren't. Then out of curiosity I looked at some other nuts and checked all of them and they ALL SAID 'May contain traces of gluten'. Even the ones I've been eating for a year now...like okay that's on me for not checking but I thought why tf would nuts have gluten??? Bro 💀💀💀 I'm do done fr. How does one even meet theit dietary requirements like this?

Read everything! Even if you’d never think it has gluten.

Wildly unnecessary.

I miss chocolate cake :( convince me not to gluten myself lol

My favorite chocolate cake comes from a restaurant nearby. Nothing else hits like it when I get that chocolate craving.

I just really miss it since learning about my gluten intolerance lol and am having cravings for it right now. Haven’t had it in 6+ months since I started removing gluten from my diet.

I’m considering just getting a slice this one time and dealing with the consequences🤣

For context, I do not have diagnosed celiac, just a high sensitivity that leaves me with headaches/GI issues and swelling

Edit to add: it’s Katz’s 7 Layer Chocolate Cake. No mix that I have found even comes close to comparing😭

Spaghetti night 🍝

Just a simple spaghetti night!

I used the Barilla chickpea spaghetti noodles and I was very pleasantly surprised! Also— the rolls from the “My Bread” gf company are absolutely insane. Just follow the instructions 🥖 💛 🧑‍🍳

One of the first problems of celiacs are… celiacs

I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and honestly it’s a bit frustrating.

One of the biggest issues for people with celiac disease is… other celiacs spreading the wrong message.

I often read comments from celiacs recommending places to eat saying things like:

“I eat there because cross-contamination doesn’t bother me”

or

“I’ve never had issues there, so it’s fine.”

But that’s exactly the problem.

Celiac disease is not about “feeling bad” or not. It’s an autoimmune condition. Even if you don’t feel symptoms, damage can still occur. Saying that cross-contamination is “okay for you” creates a dangerous narrative that it might be okay in general.

And this has real consequences.

I’ve personally called restaurants asking about their procedures, and sometimes they reply with things like:

“Many celiacs eat here, especially those who aren’t sensitive to cross-contamination.”

That sentence alone shows how misunderstood the disease is.

There is no such thing as a celiac who is “fine” with contamination. There are only celiacs who may not feel immediate symptoms — but the risk is still there.

When we, as a community, normalize this kind of messaging, we make it harder for everyone:

•	Restaurants take the issue less seriously

•	Standards get lowered

•	Newly diagnosed people get confused

•	And overall awareness gets worse

Of course, everyone makes their own choices. But publicly recommending unsafe practices as if they were generally acceptable is a different story.

If anything, we should be the first to educate others correctly — not the first to dilute the message.

My bread recipe

this is the best bread I've ever had and made. 10+ in the making! its great soft, toasted, you can freeze it. its sturdy. its not crumbly at all. the rise is insane. it makes a huge loaf. enjoy!

You can also divide the recipe in half and make rolls.

  1. Proof your yeast first: 4 tsp of dry active yeast

2/3 cup of water, not no warmer than 110 degrees.

4 tsp of maple syrup

  1. Melt and cool 1 stick of salted butter, set it aside so it cools. You can add the ½ cup of plain yogurt and the 4 tsp of apple cider vinegar to the butter to cool it.

3.1 bowl, for dry ingredients:

4 cups of almond flour

1 cup of tapioca flout

6 tbsp of protein powder

4 tsp baking powder

½ tsp salt

4 tsp of xanthan gum

Just mix all the dry ingredients, you don't need to sift.

  1. In a bowl or stand mixer, add 8 large eggs. Yup. 8. They should be room temp, but if not, they can be put in a bowl of warm water for 10 minutes.

Mix them on high for 2-3 minutes. Then add your butter, ACV, Yogurt mix. Make sure the butter is cool, or the eggs will be cooked. So, add it slowly.

Then add the proofed yeast.

Mix all of that on low for about 30 seconds.

5.Turn on the oven warmer.

  1. Line a bread pan with parchment paper, 8x3 or 9x4? I forget which one I use, but bread shaped.

  2. Use a spatula to put in the batter. It should almost fill the pan. Grease the top with PAM or oil or melted butter. Cover with Saran.

  3. Proof in the oven for about 30 min. Watch it though. It is a grower! It will proof high, and if it starts to spill over the sides, its ready to back.

  4. Take it out of the oven and cover with a tea towel while the oven heats up.

  5. Heat the over to 420. Once its hot, remove the saran from the bread and bake.

  6. Set the timer for 25 min, after that put a tin foil cover loosely over the bread so it doesn't over brown.

Bake for another 25 minutes.

  1. Remove the loaf after 50 min. Cool on a wire rack. Try not to pick at it, (for science) but if you do, it probably won't collapse. It is very sturdy.

Slice and eat!

I make it plain and also savory.

Dill and onion- add tbsp dry dill, tbsp dried onion, tsp onion powder.

Cassava flour tortillas:

2 cups of Cassava flour

½ stick of melted hot salted butter

½ cup of hot water

1 tsp of onion powder

2 tsp of xanthan gum

In a bowl, put in your dry ingredients, mix well.

Add the melted butter. Mix well. Add the water a little bit at a time,

mixing until it starts to form a ball. Cut it into 8 equal parts, roll them into balls.

Cover with a damp paper towel.

Get a big sheet of parchment paper folded in half. Get a ball of dough and put in the center and cover with the parchment paper. Press down with your hand or just the bottom of the bowl. Then using a rolling pin, just roll out until it looks like a tortilla. Get a big pan and heat it up on medium high. Open the parchment paper and gently remove the tortilla. I shouldn't be too thick or too thin. It might take a little bit of practice. Using both hands, place it on the hot pan. It should start to bubble and brown. Flip it after 2 min. Cook them until you think the seem done. About 2 min each side.

Both the bread and tortillas can be refrigerated or frozen. Just store them with parchment paper between each slice. I store them in Ziplocs.

Gluten-free granola cookies with plantains

Yesterday I really wanted a cookie while in the office. Just one. I didn't have any cookies with me though. So I went downstairs to buy one and it was almost $6 after tax. It was really good, but still a $6 cookie.

Today I decided to make my own, I don't think I can afford to regularly consume $6 cookies.

I used gluten-free granola that has raisins and cranberries. I added ground flax seeds and hemp seeds. Didn't use any sweeteners.

To stick everything together I mixed one egg, mashed plantains, two tablespoons of avocado oil, and a tablespoon of soy milk.

Gluten Free Sourdough

I have no clue to score this in an aesthetic way…but it does come out fluffy/soft.

The only thing I’m wondering is how to get a crispier outside and if there’s a way to keep the bottom from getting so tough.

I’m using King Arthur gluten free bread flour and recipe.

Active starter 22g

GF Bread Flour 80g

Water 160g

Honey 12g

Salt 10g

Combine to shaggy dough(resembles batter)

Cover for 20 mins

Knead / fold for about 3-5 mins till smooth

6 hour bulk ferment in my kitchen (72 degrees)

Proof over night in my fridge

Bake in a covered roasting pan at 500 for 15 mins

Drop to 475 uncovered for 20 mins

Either way it’s certainly the best bread my gluten free wife has ever had (her words not mine and she’s probably just being nice)

Just looking to nail the crispy crust and figure out the bottom.

Thanks!

Gluten Sensitivity and Child Mental Health

Hi all,

I have been lurking here all week, taking note of all the product recommendations, and sneaky places people are getting glutened.

Our 6 year old daughter has developed some mental health challenges (anxiety, OCD-like behaviors) and her new therapist directed us to a functional medicine specialist to rule out PANS/PANDAS. Her extensive labs came back negative for PANS/PANDAS, but all signs point to her having a pretty significant non-celiac gluten intolerance. She is also lactose intolerant, and while that has been easily managed with Lactaid pills and products, I am playing around with also trying to go dairy free.

We have been tasked with going Gluten Free for the next 3-6 months and assessing mental health symptoms and also re-running her labs.

In reading about gluten intolerance, I see that she has had some of the other common symptoms for years: skin rashes, chronic congestion, gas/bloating, chronic fatigue.

Anyone have kids with any of these symptoms and see improvement from a Gluten Free diet? This is such uncharted territory for me.

As a former vegetarian, now pescatarian, whole grains like wheat and barley have been staples in my diet for years. It will be an interesting journey for me as well, as I'll need to rethink a lot about how I eat, too.
