Hi Kryssi -
I've got very bad hypoglycemia and have to steer clear of flour.
I do a fair amount of baking, though, using wheat gluten. I actually buy it in bulk at
www.bulkfoods.com because I go through so much of it.
I always keep a bunch of LC muffins in the freezer. My standard recipe is 8 eggs, 1 cup wheat gluten, 1 tbs baking powder, 1/4 cup oil and 1/4 cup water. That makes 24 normal sized muffins. Wheat gluten is quite sticky so you probably want to use foil muffin cups if yo try this.
I modify the recipe for sweet and savory muffins. Right now the freezer has gingersnap ones (added 2 heaping tbs ground ginger and 1/3 c splend) and a garlic bread type one (added 2 super heaping tbs of garlic & bell pepper seasoning). They take 22 to 23 minutes of baking at 325.
By varying egg and wheat gluten levels, I can make waffle batter and other stuff. I've made home made pasta from wheat gluten and egg as well. I'm going to try to figure out how to make a yeasty wheat gluten based pizza crust recipe this week.
I love using wheat gluten. You need to figure out how to work with the stickiness and stretchiness, and it absorbs water differently than flour does. It can be hard to mix up with water alone, but it mixes well into egg or if you add some oil.
It's great stuff once you get a feel for working with it, and it doesn't mess up my blood sugar at all. You can browse the nutrition info at nutrition data.com
