Dairy Free Frosting (no Palm Or Soybean Oil)

Hi All,

I'm having some problems finding a dairy/gluten free frosting recipe that doesn't contain palm or soybean oil, as I am very sensitive to those oils (I can have canola and olive though). For instance, I used to use Earth Balance but I couldn't handle it...any suggestions? Usually I have to resort to a simple glaze...but I'd really love a great frosting recipe :).

We do the glaze too. I suppose you could use coconut oil. Or there is a recipe on the Enjoy Life chocolate chips for making frosting. I think you just melt them and glend in some rice milk. I've never made it but my friend did and it was good according to my daughter.

Maybe you could make it yourself with coconut oil.

Since there are similarities between palm oil and coconut oil, I wonder if you can have coconut oil?

Since my kids are allergic to dairy, and sensitive to soy.... we use a dairy free/soy free margarine. It's called Mother's - and it's Kosher for Passover, so I'm not sure you can buy it "just anywhere" or at any time of the year. I stock up and put it in the freezer. Obviously, this probably won't help you NOW.... but for future reference....

Anyhow, it's made from cottonseed oil. Certainly not the healthiest stuff on the earth, but it works in a pinch. I've made buttercream frosting using it, with orange juice rather than milk or water, and it's worked great. Tasted pretty good too!

I've made 7-minute icing from just egg whites, boiling water, and plain sugar (not even powdered!) It tastes a little bit like marshmellow fluff and it better for you than your average icing. The jist of it is that you add boiling h20 to the sugar and egg white mixture and beat it with a mixer for 7 minutes. look online for an exact recipe. I think the one I used called for cream of tartar too. You could also add chocolate or food coloring.

I found this one the other day, similar to the one you mentioned. Its from Taste of Home Quick Cooking, created by Georgie Bohmann. A variation of of the classic 7-minute frosting.

Fluffy White Frosting

1 1/2 cups sugar

2 egg whites

1/3 cup water

1/4 tsp. cream of tartar

1 tsp. vanilla extract

In a heavy saucepan or double broiler, combine sugar, egg whites, water and cream of tartar. With a portable mixer, beat mixture on low speed for 1 minute. Continue beating on low speed until frosting reaches 160 degrees, about 8-10 minutes. Pour into a large mixing bowl; add vanilla. Beat on high speed until frosting forms stiff peaks, about 7 minutes.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, some people with Celiac do react to quinoa.  I know i do.  Apparently, two different "breeds" of quinoa can stimulate the immune system. Read here... Variable activation of immune response by quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) prolamins in celiac disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22760575/#:~:text=Cultivars Ayacuchana and Pasankalla stimulated,for patients with celiac disease. And some of us react to corn (maize) as well. Maize prolamins could induce a gluten-like cellular immune response in some celiac disease patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24152750/   P.S. @Brook G have you thought about getting a genetic test done for known Celiac genes?

      People who are Celiac don't have a gluten response to Quinoa, but some people who are gluten intolerant do.  I react to quinoa just like I do to gluten.  Freddies/Kroger came out with their own gluten-free Bread and I didn't think to read the ingredients.  I couldn't figure out where I would have gotten gluten in my diet until I read the ingredients in their bread...

      Testing positive for antibodies, are there visible changes to the colon that could be seen without a biopsy?

      Thanks for the additional information. I was thinking of asking you if your daughter was taking methylated vitamins since she has the MTHFR gene but you beat me to it. To answer the question you posed in your original post, as I explained, celiac disease does not damage the colon but the lining of the small bowel. If the damage is pronounced enough and the doc doing it is experienced, yes, the damage done to the lining of the small bowel can be spotted with the naked eye.

      I could not locate the correct Gary Brecka video where he explains the methylation process and specifically states things about how people with the MTRR homozygous gene mutation are known to suffer from heartburn due to a weakened valve/sphincter where the esophagus and the stomach connect.  My brother had the youtube video sent to him from 10x health which is probably why I cannot locate it.     I will have read up on mast cell activation.  I do not know anything about it.  Tums is my preferred gerd treatment.  I always figured a little extra calcium could not hurt me.

      Trents: Due to a genetic mutation, my daughter has inherited from both parents she cannot process the Folic Acid provided in the fortified American grains.   An MD told her to avoid eating fortified grains.   My daughter makes the assumption that unless she makes the food item, that the baker used a fortified grain so she has been limiting her gluten intake since 2020.   Her Psychiatrist was who tested her for MTHFR gene issue because she suffers from depression and severe anxiety. The Psychatrist also instructed my daughter to supplement with a methylated version of folate once she knew my daughter was homozygous, because the methylated version bypasses the mutated gene step so her body can absorb it.  Low folate absorption impacts serotonin and dopamine production.  My husband and I also both have two other homozygous gene mutations that interfere with vitamin absorption: MTRR and VDR taq.  The first interferes with B-12 absorption which requires us to take a methylated B-12 vitamin and the second with Vitamin D absorption so we have to take higher doses to stay within normal levels.   My brother, who has the exact same gene mutations, went through 10x health genetic testing for vitamin supplements (paid by his employer) and received a huge report saying the same things about which types of supplements had to be taken.  Gary Brecka does videos on how these gene mutations impact the vitamin absorption pathways.       If my brother had not gotten his testing through work, he would never would have started his supplement journey.  His testing is what triggered my getting functional health testing that tested similar biomarkers to his.  Again the celiac testing was an add-on test that I did off the cuff.
