Hello, I made some pumpking muffins today (gummy inside?) and I used part ww flour and part white. I also added egg whites , which I have not had for about 6 years as I have been vegan. I can feel a discomfort from something that I ate today and those two things are the only new additions. Does anyone else find that they cannot have ww flour at all, even when using half white half ww? Thanks - Debbie IBS-C

I can't tolerate any whole wheat flour no matter how much white flour I combine it with. -nt- new

Thank you Sandy - I am starting to accept that I am the same way. It was hard to wrap my head around that as whole grain brain has been drilled into my head and to use 100% white is a big adjustment for me but my bowels will probably thank me. Debbie IBS-C

Thank you for your response Sand - I have had a hard time in adjusting my brain to using 100% white flour and today I thought I would do half and half with ww. Bad move! I am going to have to accept that ww plays yucky with my bowels. Debbie IBS-C

Thanks for the idea of adding quiona flour - does it change the texture - I made some of the pumpkin muffins off of the IBS recipe board and they are somewhat gummy inside. Any suggestions - they used to be like that when I tried with egg substitute but this time I used egg whites - Thanks - Debbie IBS-C

P.S. Does it have to be Bob's Red Mill Quiona Flour?

no it doesn't have to be bob's, but that is the only one i have found in canada, any quinoa flour will do, or try millet too.

Does the quiona or millet flour change the texture of the baked goods? Do I just substitute the exact amount called for with the white flour with quiona or millet flour? I guess I would use about half and half? Thanks again, Debbie

do half and half or it will be quite dense, but i like dense so i just use spelt and millet, but those are IF, whereas quinoa is SF, so quinoa will be safest.
