I can't have any grains or oats, and this pasta saved my food life because now I can still enjoy macaroni and cheese, spaghetti, and other pasta dishes. It's gluten-free, milk-free, soy-free, egg-free, and no sugar added. It's really good.</p> <p>You can purchase here, just in case you can't find it in your store's aisles: <a href="http://www.celiac.com/glutenfreemall/sam-mills-m-146.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.celiac.com/glutenfreemall/sam-mills-m-146.html</a> </p> http://www.elanaspantry.com/forums/topic/substitue-almond-flour-for-regular-flour-in-recipes#post-1084 Sun, 07 Feb 2010 09:39:19 +0000 hmeyers2@aol.com 1084@http://www.elanaspantry.com/forums/ <p>Can you substitute <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=215045&amp;u=412167&amp;m=25930&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=" title="buy gluten free blanched almond flour online" rel="nofollow">almond flour</a> for flour in regular recipes?

Almond is a powerhouse food and it so happens the only nut I do not tolerate. I'd love to maintain the health advantages without the side effects.

Has anyone found a workable substitute? Usually I mix a little brown rice flour and arrowroot, sometimes coconut flour, but they usually don't come out quite as beautiful as in the photos. Maybe I need to increase fat/oil content? Any suggestions would be helpful, although I wonder how many almond sensitive people might be on here... However since all the recipes are grain-free, that makes the gluten and corn intolerances I have tolerable! </p> http://www.elanaspantry.com/forums/topic/grapeseed-oil-special-conversion-needed-to-use-butter-instead#post-574 Fri, 30 Oct 2009 13:23:12 +0000 muffin92656 574@http://www.elanaspantry.com/forums/ <p>Hi everyone - I saw a recipe I wanted to try (carrot cake) but I don't have grapeseed oil.

I found Elana's pantry quite compatible for some goodies to make for my little boy, but I substitute honey for the agave nectar. I'm realizing he maybe having issues with honey since he has yeast overgrowth in his system. His intestinal dysbosis has improved dramatically, but his behavior is declining so its a Catch 22 right now. He loved the blueberry muffins, but now I am removing honey from his diet until the yeast issue is resolved. I just tried <a href="http://www.elanaspantry.com/mini-blueberry-muffins-video-tutorial/" rel="nofollow">Elana's blueberry muffin recipe</a> using not from concentrate pear juice instead of the honey, since yeast isn't crazy about pears. I didn't care for the texture. My son did eat it, but I was wondering if anyone has advice or experience so that I can modify Elana's muffin recipe. </p>
