Thanks For The 'pancake As Bread' Hint!

I'm new here, lurking mostly. But someone had mentioned when talking about the problem of bread, making sandwiches, etc. that if you used a pancake instead of bread, it works just as well. I tried it!!! thankewwww! The bread has never satisfied me in terms of texture (falls apart with a sandwich) or taste really but I could stand it.

But omg, I got the gluten-free pancake mix and ta daaaa, wonderful sammich bread. So, whoever said it, thank you for the hint. It would never have occurred to me.

Also someone said that if you warm the gluten-free bread, it's more palatable. I hadn't thought of that either but I tried it and it's much better. Still prefer a pancake tho. :D The downside is now I 'm afraid I'll be eating sandwiches more than is good for me. :(

I'm glad you found something you like. It's amazing how many things we learn, just by reading posts, isn't it?

So, do you make pancakes and use them for bread, or do you make bread from the pancake mix?

I eat Van's gluten-free waffles with coconut oil, and over easy egg on top, and a drizzle of maple syrup. I have two for breakfast almost every morning. I just get tired of gluten-free bread with my eggs!

Carla, I have very little to choose from in our little city. They carry about 5 gluten-free items. Bob's gluten-free Bread (semi-vile) and Namaste Waffle & Pancake Mix. I make up the pancake mix (very thin) and freeze them. One pancake makes a nice sandwich (could also be used for pizza!!). I'm thrilled at learning this because that's the one thing that's driven me nuts: no way to make a sandwich that didn't crumble in my plate.

      Hello,   I contacted the makers of Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix and they sent me this email.....   Subject: [EXTERNAL] Fw: Ref. ID:1335211 Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix.               On Friday, December 6, 2024, 1:04 PM, Consumer <baking@continentalmills.com> wrote: December 06, 2024   Dear Janie, Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding our Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix. We appreciate your interest and are happy to provide you with additional information. This product does not contain gluten. However, it is not manufactured in a gluten free facility. If I can be of further help, please contact me at 1 (800) 457-7744, weekdays 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (PT), or visit www.alpinecider.com and select "Contact Us." Sincerely, Kristin Kristin Consumer Relations Specialist Ref # 1335211   I hope this helps everyone.  I am currently looking for a spiced hot apple cider drink and have yet to find one that is not made in a plant that manufactures other gluten products.  It's so frustrating.

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
