Hi
After being inspired by reading this board I've bought a doughnut maker and waffle maker to makes cakes for my daughter (who is autistic and on the gf/cf diet) instead of paying between £1.50 and £2 for 4 little cakes!! which she will eat in one sitting!!
Unfortunately I can't find a easy recipe for the waffles - can i substitute GF plain flour for the ordinary flour or do I need to add anything?
Thanks

Well done on trying out the diet I know from experience how expensive it can be do you have access to anything on prescription?? I had to persevere to get my GP to refer me to a dietician first before he would let us have them but we finally got it sorted out.Best of luck any probs feel free to ask and I'll help if I can *if I don't know I can always dig out my pile of books lol*0 -

Tillysmum I usually batchcook these and freeze them then just get a couple out of the freezer as needed and pop them in the toasterIt helps make up a bit for the faff of making them HTH Dee

Thanks for the recipes - going to try it out now!
I get bread, pasta and plain biscuits on prescription - the doctor was so impressed with the change in dd - we actually got in to see the doctor without screaming the place down!
The diet has made a huge difference to her behaviour (though still non-verbal) she is much calmer. When she has even a trace of something she shouldn't she is like a child possessed for up to a week!0 -
I so know the feeling when we have infringements :eek: We do get the 'glowing red ear' as a warning sign though so at least we get to batten down the hatches :rotfl:
Well done getting the 'scripts, our GP was very sceptical and he still doesn't have a clue what I waffle on about but at least he's listening to us now!
It's so good to hear other people are having positive effects with the diet :j
I also use EyeQ for DS3 this can be sneaked in to anything that calls for oilhelps keep him calm (its only a fishoil supplement)
I found it was withdrawing the Casein that affected his speech more so than the Gluten,with him the Gluten causes more spacing out,stimming etc..it's only taken us 3 years to work this all out :rotfl:0 -
made some plain waffles - they were lovely
thanks.
