Ultimate Gluten-Free Pancake Mix Smackdown

I can't seem to get enough of pancakes! Gluten-free of course! I have to admit that the taste and texture of gf pancakes is different them what pancakes used to taste like-fluffy and light and often soggy with too much maple syrup.

Prior to my diagnosis I hated pancakes and waffles. I always thought they were so heavy and filling. Just a few bites and I'd feel like I eaten a five course meal. I didn't realize I was a victim of gluten. No wonder I'd get so full so fast! I was eating the one thing my body was never able to digest.

So now being gluten free for so long I started out with Bisquick gf pancake mix. They are good, don't get me wrong, but this mix is thick and not very pourable. So when they hit the pan they don't spread and they often burn quickly. They are very quick to make but just don't taste like that old school pancake. And oh how I miss the taste of that old school pancake.

Then I tried Pamela's gf pancake baking mix. You can also turn that mix into cookies, muffins and crepes. But the mix for pancakes just didn't do it for me and I love her mixes. It was better then the Bisquick mix but still no cigar...

Until I came across the Kinnikinnick gf pancake mix. OMG! Heaven! The mix was thin. Actually thinner then I would expect but perfect for the most amazing pancakes! So easy to pour. And they didn't burn. They tasted just like the real thing. Finally! And there is a recipe for crepes on the back too! This gf mix rocks!!!

So for all you pancake lovers and pancake makers out there here is my GF pancake list-the first one being the best:


Enjoy! Xoxo Julie

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

What's in The Gatorade You Are Drinking?

I don't know why I never blogged about this, but I have known it for some time.  And was just reminded of this the other day while I was at CVS and felt the need to spread the gluten-free word.  I also tweeted it. Did you know that certain Gatorade flavors like the fruit punch (red) flavor has caramel coloring in it?  Yup! It totally does. In the U.S. a processed product considered gluten-free has 20 or below 20ppm ( parts per million ).  Therefore products can seem gluten-free and even say gluten-free, even if they are not 100% gluten-free because our standards allow that and consider it Gluten-Free.   And different processed foods contain different levels of gluten-some contain less then 10ppm or even 5 parts per million.  That's lower but still...no cigar. The less you consume the better and the article I just found on Celiacdisease.about.com  points that the more under 20ppm/10/5ppm products you consume, the more gluten in your system...
