The present invention relates to a composition for preparing low-gluten and low-carbohydrate baked and pastry goods, containing the following ingredients: a) flour, obtained from one or more nuts and/or oil seeds of non-legumes, b) mucilage polysaccharide-containing plant products or mucilage polysaccharides isolated from these plant products, c) protein component consisting of at least 40% animal protein in the dry weight. Such a composition contains a maximum of 0.1% gluten and is preferably gluten-free, i.e. has a gluten content less than 20 mg/kg (<；20 ppm gluten content). Due to the low gluten and carbohydrate content of components a), b) and c), the composition according to the invention is suitable for producing low-gluten and in particular preferably gluten-free baked and pastry goods, having a low carbohydrate content of generally <；15% relative to the food ready for consumption, and in particular for production of low-gluten, preferably gluten-free baked and pastry goods, which, relative to food ready for consumption, have the following nutrient profile: less than 10% carbohydrates, more than 10% protein, 1-40% fat.
