It would probably be helpful if you just asked as each recipe came up, since you are correct that substitutions will bepend on the recipe.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 Do you think pureed DCCC would be a good candidate? It could even be watered down a little if it's too thick.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 I can’t eat yogurt or cheese, so I either substitute another ingredient to supply the liquid for the recipe, or just leave out the yogurt. I usually experiment a bit and see how the recipe pulls together. I don’t usually substitute one-on-one, but start off with a small amount and add it as needed. In other words, if the recipe calls for 1 cup of yogurt, I start off with half a cup of my alternative, then add as necessary to make the batter or ingredients pull together. What I use for the alternative liquid source depends on what I’m making. If it is muffins or breads, I usually use applesauce or pearsauce; the fruit doesn’t add too much flavor, just a thick liquid and a hint of sweetness. Many times I use a fruit juice instead, and adjust the amount of nut flour to compensate for the extra liquid. If the recipe is more savory, then I use olive oil. Many times the yogurt is supplying the thickening agent, so I just cook longer or use a thicker vegetable or fruit sauce. It really depends on what I’m putting together. I have to admit I haven’t found an alternative to yogurt in the cracker recipes. I gave up on the experimenting several years ago; just couldn’t find the energy to experiment further with it. I can’t digest the crackers too well, anyway. I rarely follow a recipe exactly. I start off with the recipe amounts and ingredients, but then I substitute one or two things, add something else – play, in other words. I have learned what my digestion will tolerate, so I make adjustments. I just follow the recipes more closely when I’m making it to take to a potluck or when others are going to share my meal. Kim M.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Bananas were an integral part of my diet at the 2 week mark. I did eat them cooked in banana pancakes and not raw though.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Hey tte- have you read the pecanbread.com website yet? Even if you choose not to follow the stages, there is some amazing information there- everything from yeast, to yogurt, to suppplements to recipes. Here is the link to the banana pancakes (under stage 1 " pancakes " )- there are lots of other great recipes broken out by stages! http://pecanbread.com/new/recipes.html As for telling you how long it will take your gut to heal- you answered yourself... everyone is different -Joanna > Could you give me the recipe for Banana pancakes? And I know everyone is different but how long do you think it takes for the gut to heal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Banana pancakes: 1 very ripe banana 1 egg 1/4 TSP vanilla (optional) Dash Cinnamon (optional) A TBS or two almond or coconut flour (optional and very advanced, I don't do this often) Mix everything in a blender or small food processor. Before my food processor, I would use an electric hand mixer until smooth. Heat a non stick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter or coconut oil until melted. This will make 3 - 4 pancakes. Start checking them at 3 minutes. When golden brown, flip them. I serve them with cooked apples on top. Best breakfast I eat. I start these about 10 minutes before I even start on the banana pancakes. 1 apple 2 TBS butter About 1 TSP cinnamon 1 TBS honey (optional) Peel, core and slice an apple into very thin slices. Melt the butter in a small non stick pot over medium. When melted add honey and cinnamon and stir well to combine. When combined add the apples and stir to coat. Reduce heat to simmer and cook while you get everything else ready and at least for 20 minutes. Serve hot on top of banana pancakes or cold on top of yogurt. As for healing, everyone is individual. No one can tell you a definate answer for that. I'm still healing and I've been on the diet since Jan 08. Of course, that's because I keep setting myself back.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 When I tried banana pancakes I didn't bother to look up a recipe so I just used one egg and one banana. They worked fine! I think, though, that a little almond or coconut flour (if you can have it) would make them turn easier. But it works without.
