2024 Olympic Muffins: Gluten-free and dairy-free option version (with gram and ml conversions)
(Recipe transcript originally from this post above by @norabee)
(Edits: I baked the muffins and I have been rewriting this post with recipe changes!)
Muffins I baked (Gluten/Dairy free version)
Notes:
Makes about 12 standard muffins. Maybe 6 jumbo muffins?
I added gram and ml equivalents based on some websites for converting US measurements. I think 1 teaspoon is same-ish everywhere, it's about 5ml.
The muffins taste VERY chocolatey to me! A friend thinks they have a nice balance of not too much sugar and good chocolate flavor. Either way, it may be nice to pair the muffins with coconut ice cream or coconut whipped cream. Especially if (like me) you baked the muffins with soy milk instead of cow milk - adding back in some cream may complement the chocolate flavors.
FYI, I used decaf instant coffee.
Muffin ingredients:
¾ cup milk (175 ml) (sub in: soymilk or non-dairy milk of choice.)
¼ cup water (60 ml)
2 tsp instant coffee (10 ml)
½ cup cocoa powder (about 40 grams) (Dutch cocoa recommended*)
½ cup chocolate chunks to melt (about 70 grams) (sub in: non-dairy chocolate chunks)
8 TBSP butter (1 stick, or ½ cup, or 113 grams) (sub in: non-dairy butter)
2 cups flour (between 240 grams - 280 grams?) (sub in: gluten-free 1-to-1 mix flour)
1 TBSP baking powder (15 ml)
¼ tsp salt (sea salt or kosher salt) (1 ml?)
½ cup dark brown sugar, packed (about 110 grams)
½ cup granulated sugar (about 100 grams)
¼ cup vegetable oil (about 60 ml)
2 eggs, room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract (5 ml)
Additional ⅓ cup of chocolate chunks (about 47 grams)
Filling ingredients:
½ cup heavy cream (125 ml) (sub in: coconut cream - scoop out the top cream from a can of full-fat coconut milk.**)
¼ cup chocolate chunks (about 35 grams)
pinch of salt (use sea salt or kosher salt)
Cooking instructions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 C).
Add milk, water, and instant coffee to a saucepan, bring to a simmer. (I turned off the heat once it simmered.) Add cocoa powder, mix well, then add chocolate chunks and butter. Stir until melted, transfer to a bowl, and allow to cool.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
Once the chocolate mixture is cooled - add brown sugar, granulated sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla. Mix thoroughly.
Add a third of the flour mixture to chocolate mixture and combine. Then add remaining flour mixture, folding in gently. Take care to not over-mix. Then add chocolate chunks (video says to fold in these choco chunks, but it also looks like choco chunks were added on top before baking).
Spoon batter into muffin tins. (Spoon about 1/2 cup or 120ml of batter, or just know that the muffin will poof up.) This might be when to add some chocolate chunks on top of the batter.
Bake for 24 minutes. (Baking time may differ with GF and DF substitutes, often takes longer.)
While waiting - For the filling: add heavy cream, chocolate chunks, and salt to a saucepan, heat until melted, taking care not to come to a boil.
After baking, fill muffins with filling (spoon filling into a ziploc bag, cut corner of bag, cut out a bit of the muffin center with a knife, squeeze filling into muffins)***
Serve.
More Notes:
* Dutch Cocoa suggestion is based on a tumblr tag I saw and also this article. “[....] Dutch-process cocoa powder is usually used for batters containing baking powder.”
** Coconut cream substitution as suggested on this recipe page. (One can had a little more than 1/2 cup cream, when I opened it.)
*** Muffin filling tips from @picturesque-about-it from this post:
"[....] But you could definitely just use a knife to cut out the middle and use a ziploc bag with the corner cut off to fill it." And more ideas -
#honestly…….. it would turn out a bit different but i feel like you could put the filling in before you bake it
#that’s how we made chocolate chip muffins at my old job
#scoop of ganache that would sink as it baked and chocolate chips on top
#they were soooooooo good
if you’re craving chocolate muffins after the olympic muffin man videos, jordan the stallion on tiktok has the recipe for you
#thank you norabee for transcribing the original recipe!#Olympic muffin recipe#now with mods: gluten free dairy free and gram ml conversions#as best as I can tell in gram ml since each website I looked at has slightly different measurements for flour or whatever#edit: I have been updating the recipe as I bake and taste the muffins!#add on: I am WIRED from the chocolate and the instant coffee (even tho I used decaf) - I simply do not take in much caffeine usually#huh so this is VERY chocolate and maybe it'll even out after it cools? ate two right afterwards and I wasn't actually sure i liked it?#but I also subbed in a lot of ingredients and also I do not eat that much choco and even decaf coffee so.#Melting and mixing the chocolate portions were fun though! I did not realize how fun messing around with chocolate could be >:D#Ok i think the muffins did even out after they cooled down. Tasty but still a lot - I will try pairing with coconut ice cream tomorrow#If I eat any more today I dont think I shall sleep :/ Am sensitive to caffeine and even chocolate (beloved) keeps me awake#also sometimes I WISH i could eat dairy and gluten without feeling sick.... Constantly remaking baking recipes does help with this problem#update I tried a muffin with coconut ice cream but maybe I should not have eaten that during *breakfast* it was a lot

Day 42: Low-FODMAP Gluten-Free Strawberry-Custard Pie
This recipe came together because another recipe completely fell apart. I tried to make these graham-cracker waffle things for a whole s'mores situation, but, turns out, baked goods made from gluten-free flour completely lack coherence, and I couldn't get them out of the waffle iron intact. So instead of graham-cracker waffles, I had graham cracker crumbs. So let's turn that frown upside down and make pie with a graham-cracker crust!
Low-FODMAP Gluten-Free Strawberry-Custard Pie
Ersatz Graham Cracker Crust
1 c gluten-free flour
1/4 c brown sugar
1/2 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt and cinnamon
4 tbsp melted lactose-free butter
2 tbsp lactose-free milk
1/4 c maple syrup
1 tbsp vanilla extract
For the crust: 6 tbsp melted lactose-free butter
Mix together the dry ingredients into a bowl, then pour in the wet ingredients except for the 6 tbsp of melted butter for the crust. Stir until a dough forms, and let sit for 5 minutes. You could either pour this into a waffle iron or pan fry them like pancakes, cooking until the waffle/cakes have a nice brown crust. Let cool for a bit, then break up and pulse in a food processor until crumby. You should have about 1 1/2 c crumbs.
Melt 6 tbsp lactose free butter, and mix with the crumbs. Press into a deep dish pie pan while still warm, and put into fridge to set up. Meanwhile, make:
Vegan Custard
1 1/2 c plant milk such as almond or oat
2/3 c coconut milk
1/2 c cornstarch
1/3 c sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp turmeric
Off-heat, mix together everything but the turmeric in a sauce pan; whisk out the lumps. Over medium heat, cook stirring constantly until the custard thickens, 2-5 minutes. Turn off heat and keep stirring for another minute to keep it from clumping.
Let it cool for 5-10 minutes, then stir in the turmeric (which is for color, because the pudding is otherwise an unpleasant gray.) Spread custard over the graham cracker crust, and put back in the fridge. Meanwhile, make:
Strawberry Pie Glaze
1 pkg strawberry flavored Junket Danish Dessert
1 3/4 c water
1 lb strawberries, hulled and cut into quarters
Mix the Junket packet with the water, and cook over medium heat until boiling, stirring often. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Let cool for 10-15 minutes. Arrange strawberries in an even layer over the custard, then pour the pie glaze over the strawberries. Put back in the fridge to set up.
Once the pie sets up, serve with vegan whipped cream.
So this whole project was ridiculous from beginning to end, but the results were pretty good! I liked the plant-milk custard, especially the hint of coconut from the coconut milk. I thought it paired well with the fruit, which was the sweetest thing in the pie. I like my pies not very sweet, so that was perfect. I could have used less butter in the graham cracker crust because it ended up being a little hard. It could also use a little ginger and cinnamon in the ersatz graham cracker crumbs. But really, no complaints.
Even though there was some dairy in the crust -- a little milk and some butter -- I decided I was going to make the filling vegan? Honestly, I have no idea why I committed to that, but you could easily make this recipe 100% vegan by using shortening and a plant milk in the crust instead. I had a bunch of plant milks and vegan whipped cream to use up, so that was that.
I'm not sure how widely available Junket Danish Dessert is. My Scandinavian grandparents used it often as both pie glaze and as a pudding. I've always used it as a vegetarian option instead of Jello, because Junket is thickened with tapioca starch not gelatin. In fact, you can usually find Junket by the Jello in the grocery store.
So! Pretty silly, but a pleasant way to spend an afternoon.
Evergreen disclaimer: I am no dietician. I'm doing my best to minimize FODMAPs in my diet, but it's possible for me to be misinformed or mistaken about various ingredients.

Protein Bar Recipe!
I always thought Cliff bars were far too expensive, and while looking in my cupboard a couple days ago I realized that I had protein powder and oats and went "huh, I wonder if I could make this" and didn't wait for an answer before trying. The answer ended up being yes!
alt text below cut
Ingredients:
Dry: 14 oz quick oats 9 Servings of Protein Powder of choice 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ginger 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Wet: 4 eggs 1/2 cup butter 1/3 cup sugar 3 tablespoons brown sugar 2 tablespoons baker's cocoa ~ 2 cups milk
Materials: 2 large bowls pan greaser deep-dish cookie pan hand beater spatula knife 1 small bowl
Directions: In Small bowl, measure out your protein powder until you have 9 servings total (this can be made from 3 servings of 3 different powders or all one powder or any combination). Then add all of your dray ingredients (left hand side) to a the smaller of your two big bowls with the powder mixture on top.
In the second bowl mix together all your other ingredients besides the milk. Once complete, add the first bowl to the second and mix, adding milk as you do to loosen the mixture. When it’s at the consistency of no-bake cookie batter, (or able to be stirred but not soft or runny) then pour it into your greased cookie sheet and spread it with your knife, and scrape it from the bowl with your spatula. Put it in the oven for 15 minutes and then let it cool. Cut sheet into even bars, and remove.
Store in a closed container in the fridge or cupboard
Oven Temp: 375°F (190°C) Cook Time: 15 Min Makes: 24 bars
Info: Bars should be similar to Cliff Bars, without being as hard and chewy and without the cardboard aftertaste.
For Different flavors substitute the brown sugar and cocoA powder for the same amount as what you’re flavoring it with.
Contains: Milk, Eggs, may contain Gluten
Dietary Changes:
Dairy Free: Substitute Almond, coconut, or soy milk for Milk, unsweetened works best and substitute margarine or coconut oil for butter
Gluten Free: Use Gluten Free protein powder and Gluten free Oats
Egg Free: Beat vegetable oil and baking powder in a two-cup one-to one ratio to replace the eggs
Vegan: Combine the dairy and egg free options.
Nut-Free Pre substitutions. Note: If nuts are added for a different flavour the recipe becomes no longer nut free. Dairy Free May Contain nuts

Desserts don’t get much better than chocolate babka, but most recipes for this beloved Jewish bake call for all-purpose flour — not helpful if you’re a celiac or don’t eat gluten. So I came up with this gluten-free babka recipe, which is just as sweet, gooey and indulgent as the original. Plus, this recipe can easily be made dairy-free, too, using your vegan butter and dairy-free milk of choice.
It may well be the chocolatiest chocolate babka recipe around. First, you have a moist chocolate filling, which you can customize to make as sweet as you like. Then, the babka is sprinkled with chocolate chips before baking. Once the babka is baked, the final touch is a melted chocolate drizzle.
If you’re feeling extra-indulgent, along with the chocolate chips, you can also top your babka with my simple and very useful crumb topping before baking. It adds an extra layer of texture and enhances the appearance of your baked goods — I use it for everything from babka to coffee cake, fruit crisps and muffins. Store the streusel topping in an airtight container in the freezer and use it as needed. Or, if you have any leftover gluten-free cookies or cake lying around, you can grind them into crumbs and top the babka with those crumbs instead.
Notes:
This recipe yields two chocolate babkas. You can bake them in loaf pans or roll them up into a cylinder and bake in round pans for something a little different.
I’d recommend using Blends by Orly Manhattan Blend Pastry Flour (made with millet and sorghum) or Blends by Orly Tuscany Blend Bread Flour for this recipe.
You can either freeze the whole babka or preslice it and freeze it in a freezer-safe Ziploc bag. After the babka is defrosted, I recommend wrapping in foil and heating in the oven, or you can heat individual slices in the microwave.

recently, (Liana Flores)
karkat v. and dave s. (TOGETHER) with an s.o with POTS (may be inaccurate, sources will be linked below)
Their opinion of you wouldn't change due to your diagnosis. If you want to talk to them about it, tell them your struggles, your fears, and your hopes now that your diagnosed. They are your no.1 supporters!!!
They help increase your salt intake, since it helps retain water in the blood vessels, which in turn elevates blood pressure to normal levels. However, because of the salt intake, you gotta drink a lot of water so you dont dehydrate!! they are checking up on you to make sure you aren't dehydrated, because dehydration sucks.
"hey [name] have you drank anything recently" "No, not for a hot minute..." "I'LL GET YOU A BOTTLE OF WATER. REMEMBER TO DRINK WATER FREQUENTLY ASSHAT."
they are trying their best <3
before you all go to bed, they make sure that there's a bottle of water for you to drink on the nightstand.
if you can wear them, they will buy you some compression socks/gloves <3
They help get stuff off of the ground and such as you don't need to bend over as much, and make sure you have a place to sit.
They would meditate with you if you do it, although karkat is mumbling something under his breath most of the time.
to help reduce your nausea, they might get you a peppermint or two, a ginger ale, or make you some ginger tea if you feel like it. (i actually prefer ginger chews!! i prefer chewy things over hard things most of the time haha)
they make a meal plan!! they try to find recipes for foods that don't include dairy or gluten. make sure that your eating four to six small meals a day.
you and dave exercise together! Nothing high impact or anything upright (in the beginning stages of your training) but he helps you build up time so your steadily working out 30 minutes for five days, despite how much you may not like it...
they keep ice packs in the freezer at all times to help ice the pain <3
very supporting boyfriends, 10/10
sources:
standing up to pots - maniging pots
cleaveland clinic - pots
a.n: this was an eye opening experience, thank you so much for requesting !! <3 feel free to dm if i got anything wrong and know you are cherised and supported no matter what

If I actually worked in the office, you all just know that I'd be bringing in sweet treats all the time. So, in preparing to spend a whole week up there, I thought it would be fun to make some cupcakes to take with me! We have both vegan and gluten-free needs in our team, and I wanted to make sure I was creating something for everyone to enjoy, so this recipe just seemed perfect (and a great way to use up some of the baking ingredients I have lingering in my cupboards).
I made this in full using tapioca flour and a cookie dough frosting I now can't seem to find back, though there was so much experimenting that went into that that sharing the recipe I used would not be particularly true to my end result.
I used a colander to sift and forgot to whisk my dry ingredients before adding the wet, so I can't really vouch for the texture of these, but they did turn out soft and relatively moist. 19 minutes in the oven was perfect.
For a gluten-free recipe, I do think these turned out pretty good. You're still going to be able to tell that they're gluten free, but they still come astonishingly close to the gluten-full kind, enough so that I received compliments on them in the office.

Get to know you - tag game
*GASP* I'm honoured, @an-excellent-choice, thank you for the tag :з
✨ Last song you listened to:
THE WHOLE ALBUM IS GOOD GO LISTEN TO IT
(i've been mentioning it every chance i get ever since i first listened to it like 7 years ago, it's just too good :"D)
Edit: fun fact, I kinda had a cool BG3 idea with this song that I'm not sure if I can pull off. I know I do, I think I do, I hope I do~~~
✨ Favourite colour: as an artist, because I stare at colours all the time, there's really too many that I absolutely adore. It's impossible to tell which ones I like best, though what I can say is what's my favourite combination: it's the one on the album cover of this song ⬆
Cold greyish brown or brownish dark grey/slighly dull light blue + very bright light blue/turquoise.
✨ Currently watching: One Piece. Last summer, I suggested my family and I watch it together, and we're still going. Currently on the post-Marineford arc!
✨ Favorite flavour:
Oof, the flavour that a cup of almond hot chocolate has. Also popcorn? I once had a period of only drinking lattes with Monin popcorn syrup, and let me tell you it was GODLY
✨ Current obsession: BG3, no doubt
✨ Last thing I googled:
Vegan nutella :"D I bought this gluten-free dairy-free nutella-ish paste that was... let's say... edible. Bland kinda, and just sweet. So I went out to search for some other brands, and found lots of cool recipes instead. This one, judging by the ingredients, by far seems the most delicious. Too bad I don't have a food processor :")
✨ Favourite season:
Spring/autumn. Gods, anything but hot summer, really, but those 2 are the most ideal.
✨ Skill I’d like to learn:
Some foreign languages that I've already learned some of before, and would just like to reach at least a passable level in: like Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, and Welsh. I'm really out of practice with those.
Also some ADHD learning/working techniques that would actually work :"), as not being able to keep some sort of routine is the sole reason I've not yet gotten good at those languages and haven't started on different big projects I have only in mind for now.
Maybe I need to buy a clicky fidget toy or something. Oh well, at least I have a clicky keyboard, so that's nice :3
✨ Best Advice:
And I guess this is for the miserable-from-childhood folks like me. REST IS VERY GOOD, PEOPLE. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise, not even yourself. The circuits of a computer that has been overworked and overheated because it's never been allowed to cool off will eventually burn out from all the heat damage they endured, and it will shut the whole machine down.
What rest means for you, you'll have find out for yourself.
I know, for some us (me included), it's nearly impossible not to feel guilty for enjoying the things in life that would otherwise bring us happiness, but if there's one thing I've learned from the past 8-9 years of constant unbearable stress from guilt and self-hatred (and many external factors, yes), as well as many medical diagnoses later, is that your physical body will not only not say thank you for that, but eventually it will actively start dying.
Same goes vice versa: untreated health issues will lead to many mental health problems (example: I've been gluten-intolerant for quite a while and didn't learn that until a year and a half ago, and this whole time, the inflammation in the body was giving my nervous system so much anxiety and depression that I couldn't cope with it anymore), so the moral is
Yes, take care of your body, or at least whenever you have the capacity to and allow yourself to rest when you feel like you're tired, but also enjoy the things that make you happy, be it a delicious dessert, or a good book, or a tv show, or spending time with friends if you have them, whatever. You have all the right to do so because you matter, okay? Your well-being and good health matters, your happiness matters, everything about you matters, and not a single shitbag can change that. If you feel like no one cares for you, know that at least I do!
Also tagging my mutuals, @arczism, @noblestalk, @okthisway, @wrathe, @teilzeiteinhorn ❤
