For two days I went sugar free (going gluten alone does not help) so doing the combo works for me. I don't have the blood and the painful running back and forth all day long, every 1/2 hour.

Can you throw some baked good receipes out to me please? Breakfast is the hardest meal for me to eat because I don't want to eat chicken, beef or fish for breakfast, I'll save that for lunch and dinner.

Any help would be great. I ordered a book off Amazon and I'm waiting for that to come in.

I guess I have to learn to like baking. I'm getting a new house and a new kitchen in a couple of months, maybe that will inspire me!!

Baking without sweetener?

I made a great GF cornbread the other day. Recipe from a Turkish friend of mine:

3 eggs
1 cup yogurt
1 cup oil (I used canola but you can use any vegetable oil, or olive etc.)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tea spoon salt(I like salt so I put a little more:)
1 tea spoon red chili pepper (do not use cayenne, LOL, burned my own throat!)
2 cups corn flour ( I did not put all of them at once, you can put 1 cup first than you can balance the cake, it should be like a regular cake, not too thin not too thick)
I add some light cottage cheese that I bought from Whole foods,
Actually my mom advise me to put in it some thin cut spinach or leek leaves, I didnt try it but seems delicious and nutritious:) you can try!
I used hand mixer to prepare, and put it in a non stick tray above parshement paper, and bake 350F about 25-30 min.

Thank you. I will be baking this weekend...it's going to be cold here so that's a good reason to stay in.

So, no honey, coconut sugar or maple syrup either?

Pumpkin bread was my mainstay breakfast for a bit but it had maple syrup.

I do a lot of hashs for breakfast.. Mostly without eggs.. Just veggies and potatoes or sweet potato... Sometimes turkey bacon Green smoothies...almond scones with jam..

Mini crustless quiches in muffin cups.. I'll freeze them and pop a couple out.

Have you considered smoothies with the Nutribullet or the more expensive Vitamix. They are a good way to get natural gluten free foods in you, without added sugar. One smoothie makes a great breakfast

I make myself a bowl muffin/cake for breakfast every morning.

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon coconut oil
dash of salt
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 egg
1/2 of a banana
1 tablespoon of coconut flour

The times for my microwave are listed.
Place coconut oil in a glass bowl and heat in microwave for 40 seconds.
Add salt and cinnamon and mix well. I use a fork for mixing everything together.
Add egg and mix well.
Add banana and squish it up well and mix it in.
Add coconut flour and mix well. I may end up adding a little more flour depending batter consistency.
Use a spatula to scrap sides of bowl and level the mix.
Microwave for 90 seconds.

I have a second variety where I substitute 1.5 teaspoons of dextrose for the banana and then add 1/8 cup thawed cranberries (I bought a bunch of bags last Thanksgiving and froze them).

I don't consume vanilla currently. You may want to add a little if you like vanilla.

The wheat belly cookbook has some tasty recipes. The pancakes are delicious.
