I made mini loaves with it for a woman’s tea I was cooking for. It is nice to have a healthy alternative. They looked and tasted like mini blueberry loaves. Some went home with guests.

Hi Ann – you could try subbing out both the coconut AND tapioca flour for almond flour instead – but full disclosure, we haven’t tested it that way. You may need to reduce the amount of milk a little if you do so.

yikes – so sorry these didn’t turn out for you Eileen!! So hard to figure out what went wrong through comments, but I’m sorry they didn’t turn out for you. The gelatin-eeg muffins don’t rise as much as the traditional eggs muffins do – they will fall as they cool. Here’s another recipe that uses gelatin: https://healthygut.com/healing-blueberry-jello/

Sorry you feel that way Julie.

We can’t please everyone, but we try to provide a variety of recipes and a little something that can work for anyone! Here’s a good dessert if you’re following SCD strict still: https://healthygut.com/amy-ervin-lemon-bar-recipe/

Hi Kristi – if you’re using a recipe that calls for eggs, you generally only want to replace up to 3 eggs with gelatin eggs – if you replace more than that, you usually need to add extra fat or tweak the recipe in some other way. This recipe has a lot of healthy fat (coconut oil and full-fat coconut milk) so even though this recipe calls for 4 eggs, it still turns out when made with 4 gelatin eggs.

Thank you.

I can eat eggs but tried this using gelatin eggs instead as I’m trying to consume more gelatin, used the Great Lakes gelatin. I thinned the very thick and glue-like batter, maybe needed much more thinning though? They needed about 40 minutes for toothpick to come out clean. The inside of the muffins were essentially gelatinous globs, they sunk in the middle as soon as cool, stuck severely to paper liners. They tasted ok. We ate some of them while laughing about how awful they were but I’m not sure of the fate for the remaining 8….

It’s not helpful to those that need to stick to it 100%

In the Gelatin Egg Recipe that you link here, it states that gelatin can be used to substitute for eggs in any recipe that calls for 1-3 eggs. This recipe, however, calls for 4 eggs. Thoughts on that????

Hey Carolyn – thanks for commenting!!

We believe SCD is a great starting palce for healing the gut, but we don’t think anyone should stick to strict SCD for life without at least testing their tolerance of a wider variety of foods after healing has occured. The goal is to find the customized diet that works for you – and for many people that includes healthy but SCD-illegal foods like tapioca. More info on tapioca here: https://healthygut.com/egg-nut-and-milk-substitutes/

Cream of tartar is SCD-illegal becuase it sometimes contains a little starch. Look for one that doesn’t include starch if this is a concern for you.

However, both tapioca and cream of tartar are “illegal” in the SCD Diet. Please explain. Thank you! Carolyn
