What Is The Best Gluten Free Flour

I have only been diagnosted with Celiac for about 2 months, so I am new to all of this.

What is the best flour to use for baking?

I go out every morning for coffee at Tim Horton's and since nothing there is gluten free, I need to take my own.

I have tried Tom Sawyer's. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I will pass forward the flour recipe given to me:

3 parts white rice flour

2 parts potato starch

1 part tapioca flour/starch

*unless otherwise noted add 1 tsp xanthan gum for every 1.5 cups of flour

This recipe works the best out of everything that I have tried. In general, the more starches you can use the better. Gluten free baking is different than baking with wheat, and can often take time and patience before you will get good results. If you follow this recipe, it should cut down on the bad baking experiences.

Hope this helps. :)

      Thank you for the information. I did order/receive GliadinX to have on hand in the event of suspected exposure.

      Celiac or not?

      Just had a letter through from the Celiac team, they’ve diagnosed me through my bloods, no endoscopy/biopsy needed. I guess I’ll be sticking around on this forum and I’m sure I’ll be back soon. thanks for all your help

      I have no specific recommendations but I would suggest looking for products that are advertised as produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility. That should eliminate one possible route of cross contamination. It doesn't guarantee that none of the ingredients going into the product are totally gluten free but is should eliminate adding more CC to the mix via processing machinery.  One of the issues you may be experiencing is that testing has shown that a significant percentage of "Certified Gluten Free" products can test far in excess of 10ppm. There was an article appearing in this forum back last summer outlining the results of testing that showed this to be true. So, it may be somewhat of a pig in a poke when you buy this stuff, regardless of how it is billed. It may be safe for you if it actually fits within the stated requirements of it's billing.

      I can still have a reaction from “certified gluten free” products I don’t like having to use the eat and see what my body does approach are there really any purely gluten free products or do I just have to make all of my own food?
