Kinnikinnick Gluten Free Review

I love trying gluten free products because even though I do not have a gluten intolerance, I know that as a soon to be dietitian, I will come across patients who cannot have it.  Kinnikinnick is a brand that makes really good products that are hard to even tell that they are gluten free.  For review, I was sent their pancake and waffle mix, cinnamon sugar donuts, panko bread crumbs, and K-toos cookies.

Right when I opened up the package, I tried one of the donuts. I heated it up in the microwave for 15 seconds first.  It was amazing!! The donut is only 170 calories and tastes just like a donut with gluten.  With the K-toos which are very similar to Oreos, I made truffles with cream cheese.  It is the easiest recipe in the world.  All you have to do is blend a whole package of the cookies with 4 ounces of cream cheese.  I also added 1/2 cup ground oats for extra fiber. They turned out amazing and are gluten free (if you consider oats gluten free).  These two products that I tried were great substitutes for desserts with gluten. I would definitely try these again.

  3. I actually was thinking about trying the donuts. I passed by them in the Supermarket a few times but wasn't too sure I would like them. Now, I will definitely be giving them a try!
