Thanksgiving Dessert Success

Hi all,

I had to share my Pumpkin cake success with you! I needed a dessert for Thanksgiving dinner that was gluten free and also vegan (for one of my guests). Nameste cake mixes have specific directions for using egg-replacer, so I thought I would try their spice cake and use pumpkin in it. The recipe called for something like 1/2 cup oil plus 1 cup water plus 3 eggs. Here is what I did:

1 pkg Nameste Spice Cake mix

4 1/2 teaspoons egg replacer powder plus 6 tablespoons soy milk (this equals 3 eggs)

1/4 cup oil

1 1/4 cup pumpkin

approx 1/4 cup more soy milk to get the right consistancy (seemed too thick).

I baked it in a greased bundt pan at 350 for about 40 min.

Then I made a light glaze with powdered sugar and soy milk to drizzle over it.

It turned out so good! Everyone, including the 'regular' eaters gobbled it up. :D

Looks yummy. I'm going to copy off this recipe and make it soon.

Isn't it nice when the gluten-free food is enjoyed by those not restricted.

      Hi Dc91 Excellent advice there from Trents.  He is right, not eating gluten now could generate a negative result if you do end up having an endoscopy especially as NHS waiting lists can be quite long.    I'd definitely double check with the doc. Cristiana

      Perfect, I guess I won’t know for certain until I know if I need a endoscopy/biopsy. My father is also celiac so I’m guessing that’s where I’ve got it from. My doctors has told me to start a gluten free diet which I’m 4 days into but it would be nice if I could have my last hurrah at eating gluten again. I’ll ring in the morning and ask if she’s referred me for an endoscopy/biopsy.

      The tTG-IGA is considered the centerpiece of celiac disease blood antibody testing. Your test results exceed 10x normal range so you could be officially declared to have celiac disease without going through an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining. As you used the term "bloods" to refer to your antibody testing, I am assuming you live in the UK and it has become common practice there since the COVID pandemic years to dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy when the tTG-IGA score reaches 10x normal. Though I would not go so far as to say it is yet a universal practice to do so. So, I would hold off on the gluten free diet until you find out if you will be required to undergo an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel. If you quit gluten now, healing of the small bowel lining will commence and it may generate a false negative biopsy by the time you get to the procedure. So, ask that question of your doctor. That is, if he feels a need to refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy.
