Corn Muffins – Gluten and Dairy Free

Gluten Free, Paleo, Sides, Soup, Vegetarian3 Responses »

Okay, I was handed a challenge today.  A dear friend’s son has been having serious digestive issues, their Doctor suggested a version of the candida diet, which means basically no sugars or most grains.  He is 15 years old, and very active in sports, so starving all the time of course.  Could I possibly develop some type of bread/muffin that could be packed in his lunch, or portable for sporting events.  Sure.

Sounds easy, I thought, yeah well, not so much.  Some of the things he could not have are yeast, eggs, milk (cow goat or sheep), almond flour, wheat flour, oats or oat flour, casein, barley or sugar.  Sure, easy.

Nailed it.

These freeze really well. I like to grab one from the freezer when traveling, after a few hours they have defrosted enough to enjoy wherever I am.

Perfect timing — I have spot of chili bubbling on the stove. That’s dinner tonight! Thanks for sharing.
