Here is my new recipe for lower sulfur pumpkin muffins! I provide two egg-substitution options to make them even lower in sulfur and egg-free.

What is MCAS?

Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) is a chronic condition that affects all organ systems. MCAS is serious and disabling and people with MCAS experience often significant and debilitating symptoms daily, including anaphylaxis, which can be fatal.MCAS is often found in combination with other chronic conditions such as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS).

Frequently healthcare providers do not know about MCAS, and the tests for MCAS are problematic because they are not uniformly reliable. MCAS can be difficult to manage. Treatments include blocking mast cell mediators with anti-histamines and mast cell stabilizers, as well as avoiding triggers.

Check out this post on how to manage MCAS.

Author Betsy Leighton | My Inert Life | www.myinertlife.space

Ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • 2 eggs or 2 T. chia seeds mixed with 5 T. water; or ½ tsp xanthan gum combined with ½ cup apple sauce
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup applesauce
  • 1 cup water or milk of choice
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 cup Otto's Cassava Flour
  • ½ cup white rice flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • ½ tsp grain-free baking powder such as Otto's
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Place the wet ingredients in a large bowl, whisking to combine.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and stir until smooth.
  • Use a spoon or an ice cream scoop to divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups.
  • Place the muffin tins in the oven and bake for about 22 minutes, until the tops are just beginning to brown.
  • Remove the muffins from the oven. Tilt each muffin so that the bottom will vent steam and not become soggy as they cool. Once cool consume immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer.

The bucket theory

The bucket theory offers a helpful analogy for understanding symptom reactions with MCAS.

Think of your body as an empty bucket that you want to keep from overflowing. Different foods and activities fill your histamine bucket at different speeds but they combine to form the total level of histamine in your body (how full your bucket is). A fuller bucket means you have more histamine symptoms. When you manage triggers, reduce exposure to known triggers, and take medications and supplements to reduce histamine, you can manage the level of your bucket.

Know your typical symptom progression

Knowing your symptom progression in a symptom flare is the key to developing your rescue plan. In this post, I discuss how to determine your symptom progression. Once you know what typically happens in your symptom progression you can design a rescue plan to address those symptoms.

What to serve along with this recipe

Taking one capsule of Healthy Gut Holozyme helps your body to digest your food.
Choose sides based on your other dietary needs.

Leftovers and reheating

Leftovers keep in the fridge for up to 5 days, but if you have histamine intolerance or MCAS you will want to freeze leftovers right away.

Freeze for up to 3 months.
