Gluten-free Cookies

Hey everyone,

As usual I am hungry and I brought Ener-G chocolate chip cookies-YUCK! I was hoping they would taste good b/c Ener-G bread isn't too bad. I am very lazy and do not want to make cookies. Does anyone know which store bought brand is considered edible? I tried pamela's cookies and got sick from them, but they were very good. Any sugestions on dairy/gluten free cookies would be appreciated. Thanks

I really like Enjoy Life Foods cookies... my fave is the no oats oatmeal, but the chocolate chocolate chip is also pretty good In My Humble Opinion.

they are expensive, but happyhappyhappy.com (the bakery in NYC posted about in another thread) has gluten-free/DF cookies - i just ordered some they should arrive next week. it's like $25 for 18 cookies (!). my sister in law is vegan and just gave birth so i thought it'd be fun to surprise her with some, plus i can enjoy them too!!

I am the laziest person in the world but I make these cookies all the time quick and easy and keep forever, try mixing 1 cup P nut butter, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg and 1/4 tsp vanilla, plop in balls on a sheet flatten with a fork and bake at 350 for about 10 - 14 minutes or till lightly browned on edges. Let cool on sheet for 5 minutes before removing to rack. After these cool they stay together real well and are great for breakfast with fruit. I know you wanted a ready made but these can be fixed in less time than it takes to go to the store.

My son loves the Midel Chocolate chip and Animal cookies (I actually fooled a bunch of kids with these cookies...they had no clue they were Gluten Free) :lol: We also make those peanut butter cookies too, they are quick, easy and very good.

The montana chocolate chip cookies are soooooooooo good. I just ate one. :P

The lemon cranberry are the same... though, I like to microwave them for 15 seconds to make them chewy.

Thank you everyone for your helpful replies. I also tried Midel cookies, and they were not really tasty to me. But I will try your other suggestions and also get my lazy butt up and make some cookies :lol:

Which mi-dels did you try? I abhor their choc chip...but am pretty much obssessed with the arrowroot cookies. If you haven't--try them! They are like animal crackers...I think I could live on them alone :)

PS--You can use them to make gluten-free pie crusts too...

If you are in the Ny metro area, try Josef's gluten-free cookies. They have lots of kinds. I like the double chocolate egg-free, gluten-free cookies. Wow. They come in small clear plastic tubs. I buy them at Whole Foods Market and Mrs Greens Natural Market. Honestly, they are the BEST gluten-free cookies I have ever bought.

      Gluten Ataxia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hi, @Dawn R., I get gluten ataxia.  It's very disconcerting.   Are you still experiencing gluten ataxia symptoms eating a gluten free diet?

      Raw Meat Craving

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jordan Carlson, Sorry to hear you're having a bumpy journey right now.  I've been there.  I thought I was never going to stop having rashes and dermatitis herpetiformis breakouts and hives, oh, my! I went on a low histamine Autoimmune Protocol Diet (AIP diet).  It gave my digestive system time to heal.  After I felt better, I could add things back into my diet without reactions.   In Celiac Disease, we make lots of histamine as part of the autoimmune response.  There's also histamine in certain types of food.  Lowering histamine levels will help you feel better.  Foods high in histamine are shellfish, crustaceans, fermented foods like pickles and sauerkraut, canned foods, processed meats and smoked meats like bacon and ham, and aged cheeses.  Grains and legumes can also be high in histamine, plus they contain hard to digest Lectins, so they go, too.  Cutting out corn made a big improvement.  Some Celiacs react to corn as though it were gluten.   Dairy can be problematic, so it goes.  Some Celiacs have lactose intolerance because their damaged villi cannot make Lactase, the enzyme that digests lactose, the carbohydrate in dairy, while some Celiacs react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten.  Dairy is high in iodine, which makes dermatitis herpetiformis flare up badly.  Eggs are high in Iodine, too.  I even switched to pink Himalayan salt, instead of iodized salt.  Avoid processed gluten free facsimile foods like cookies and breads because they have lots of additives that can cause high histamine, like carrageenan and corn.   Yes, it's a lot.  Basically veggies and meat and some fruit.  But the AIP Paleo diet really does help heal the intestines.  My digestive tract felt like it was on vacation!   I'd throw meat and veggies in a crock pot and had a vacation from cooking, too.  Think easy to digest, simple meals.  You would feed a sickly kitten differently than an adult cat, so baby your tummy, too! Take your vitamins!  It's difficult to absorb nutrients from our food when everything is so inflamed.  Supplementing with essential vitamins helps our absorption while healing.  Niacin B3, the kind that flushes (nicotinic acid -not the same as nicotine in cigarettes, don't worry!) REALLY helps with the dermatitis herpetiformis flares.  Niacin and Thiamine make digestive enzymes so you can digest fats.  Add in healthy Omega Three fats, olive oil, flaxseed oil, avocado oil, coconut oil.  Vitamin D helps lower inflammation and regulates the immune system.  Thiamine helps mast cells not to release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine B1, has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  Pyridoxine B6, Riboflavin B2, Vitamin C and Vitamin A help heal the digestive tract as well as the skin.  Our outside skin is continuous with our digestive tract.  When my outside skin is having breakouts and hives, I know my insides are unhappy, too.   Talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing.  Blood tests are NOT accurate measurements of B vitamin deficiencies.  These tests measure what's in the bloodstream, not what is inside cells where vitamins are used.  Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals made a big difference with me.  (My blog has more of my bumpy journey.) Let me know if you have more questions.  You can get through this!

      Raw Meat Craving

      By Jordan Carlson · Posted

      Hey there @knitty kitty! Thanks for checking in. Things are not really going as planned for myself unfortunately. As much as I feel better than I did while eating gluten, I still seem to be reacting to trace amounts of gluten in gluten free foods. I constantly break out in rashes or hives after eating. My dermatitis is constantly flaring up. I take every precaution possible to be as gluten free as I possibly can and have simplified my diet as much as I possibly can but still cant get past this point in my recovery. If this is the case, I believe it would be considered non-responsive Celiac Disease or Refractory Celiac Disease. The only time I have ate gluten purposely in the last year was for the 3 weeks leading up to my endoscopy for diagnosis. Aside from that, the last year has been a constant disappointing effort to be gluten free with the same result of getting stuck at this point. I have a appointment with my doctor next week to discuss some treatment options and what the next steps are in trying to get my body to push past this point.   I will keep you posted!

      @GardeningForHealth, How are things going for you?   I found another topic you might be interested in... To Be or Not to Be a Pathogen: Candida albicans and Celiac Disease https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6906151/

      Raw Meat Craving

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jordan Carlson, How are you doing now?  Your post slipped by, but I had to let you know you weren't alone.  I've had cravings for raw meat my whole life.  It's due to being low or deficient B vitamins, specifically Thiamine.  Meat is a great source of B vitamins.  Cooking meat destroys some of the vitamins, so a craving for raw or rare meat shows up.   Thiamine and Niacin make digestive enzymes that will help you digest fats.  Thiamine will help improve gastroparesis, anxiety, vertigo, and heart palpitations.  Niacin will help Dermatitis Herpetiformis.  I get dermatitis herpetiformis blisters on the palms of my hands, too. Really active people (especially if outdoors in hot weather) need additional Thiamine.  If a high carbohydrate diet is eaten, additional Thiamine is needed, too.  I take Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine that helps heal the digestive tract.  I also supplement magnesium because Thiamine and magnesium work together.   Hope you can update us on how you're doing.
