Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hi - I haven't ever made a rice cake like this, and the gram measurements are throwing me a bit, but I don't see why you couldn't omit the butter altogether (or replace with applesauce), and replace the egg yolks with 2-3 T canola oil. Follow the rest of the recipe as instructed (but don't top with the blobs of whipped cream). The rice will give a great soluble fiber base, the almonds are finely ground, and you could easily use soy milk for the dairy milk. This basically sounds like a rice pudding that you then fold some egg whites and fat into and bake into a custard-cake. I would bet it comes out just fine with the substitutions - in general, any type of rice pudding is pretty flexible and forgiving.

Because you're reducing the fat, I'd up the flavor by increasing the lemon zest to 1 T. Might also add some fresh nutmeg or cinnamon.

Best,
Heather
