Are my bread pans/ muffin trays, etc. forever contaminated?

I've been transitioning gluten free for the last few months and just made the most delicious "gluten-free" bread... only to land totally fatigued in bed unable to move with my stomach pounding 30 mins after eating. I realized that I didn't give my bread pan a thorough washing before using it. I'm wondering if my bread pans and muffin trays are salvagable with a good cleaning? They are metal.

I found a similar thread that may have answered my question... check for scratches. Any other insights would be useful!

You can heat them really hot and the gluten will turn to charcoal which is gluten free. You could have another food sensitivity though besides gluten.

Do you by chance know what temp gluten breaks down at? 

I have been diagnosed celiac and IBS.

I don't know. I am guessing though that you could put a crumb or something similar in the pan. Once the crumb is completely turned to charcoal the pan is good to use.

Oh and I just thought that lining the pans with aluminum foil would probably do the trick? 

I'm also going to self-clean the oven

I would think that washing the pans in your dishwasher (not over loaded) a couple of times would clean things enough. If they don't have old grease cooked into them.

500F+ will destroy gluten proteins, Oven Self clean cycles exceed this and a commercial oven can go to 550F. A hour or so at this should destroy all gluten.

Unfortunately dishwashers now days use the rinse water from once cycle to clean in the next cycle to save water.....yeah not so good for CC issues now days.

For Bunt pans or thinks with a ton of crevices like spring form pans I would toss them and get new ones honestly.

If you need to get by cheap for awhile get some nordic ware microwave cookware. Of if you get the gill plates get the splatter cover as well thing is good to keep the  microwave clean and works over plain plates to.

Thanks everyone. I'm going to try a thorough wash plus lining it and see if it does the trick. If not, I'll buy new ones.

Bread baking brings me too much joy to give up.

      Certified gluten free oats

      By trents · Posted

      Your doctor may or may not be well-informed about the issue you raise so I would not agree that he/she would necessarily be the best person to rely on for a good answer. The question actually raises two issues.  The first issue has to do with cross contamination and individual sensitivity as dublin55 alluded to. Oats and wheat are both cereal grains that are typically grown in the same areas, transported in the same trucks, stored in the same silos and processed on the same equipment. So, there is usually significant CC (Cross Contamination). With gluten free oats, there is some effort to separate these processes that would otherwise cause significant CC and "gluten free" oats should meet the FDA requirement of not exceeding 20 ppm of gluten. But this 22 ppm standard is not strict enough for more sensitive celiacs. "Certified gluten free" oats (and other food products are held to a stricter standard, that being not exceeding 10 ppm. But even that is too much gluten for some super sensitive celiacs and will cause a reaction. The second issue with oats has nothing to do with gluten per se but with the protein found in oats called "avenin". Avenin has a structure similar enough to gluten to cause a reaction in some celiacs. This is called "cross reaction" not to be confused with "cross contamination" discussed in the previous paragraph. So, for whatever reason, whether cross contamination or cross reaction, it is estimated that about 10% of celiacs react to oats.

      Getting rid of the belly bloat

      By dublin555 · Posted

      Karen, that sounds really tough. You must find both RA management and your new gut problems extremely irritating to handle at once. Together with your pain relief you still experience ongoing bloating complications that drag on without a resolution. Of course visiting a doctor to obtain a proper celiac diagnostic evaluation becomes necessary when no formal diagnosis has been received. Your journey toward recovery has been lengthy yet it brings comfort to notice your progress during this time. This support group offers you valuable help because there are people experiencing the same concerns with you. Working through your issues will be easier.

      Certified gluten free oats

      Yeah, it’s tricky. I’ve seen a lot of mixed opinions too. Some folks can tolerate certified gluten-free oats without a problem, but others with celiac still react. Honestly, it really depends on your sensitivity. Your doctor would be the best person to ask about your specific situation.

      I can't edit my posts, but I forgot to note as well: I also had low iron and vitamin d according to my blood tests, despite already taking supplements for each
