Challah Recipe?

Recommended Posts

junieb Rookie

Anyone have a gluten-free challah recipe for either bread machine or by hand? This and pizza are the 2 things dd is most upset about. I know there are rice-crust pizza dough recipies and products, but I haven't seen anything about challah (Jewish egg-bread). Thanks!

Oh yes, I would die for some challah bread!

I did see a website from NYC where you could get 2 loaves of challah for $16, and they would ship it for $10 within NYC. So, I'm figuring to get it to Calgary, I'd probably have to re-mortgage my house!

According to GFCFdiet.com, Lori Bakes (724-941-7817 loribakes@adelphia.net) does homemade breads in her kitchen, including challah bread:

Banana Bread

Banana Nut Bread

WONDERful White Bread

WONDERful Hamburger Buns

WONDERful Mini Hamburger Buns

WONDERful Hot Dog Buns

Corn Bread

Challah (Egg Bread)

Cinnamon Raisin Bread

She doesn't have a web site yet but on the Gluten-free Casein-free site they make it sound like she bakes as a home business, I bet if you email she will send you prices, etc.

Wow! Thanks for all the help! We just got the date for the biopsy - 10/28. I'm going to have some challah waiting for her just in case. Dr is on vaca - when he's back I will try to find out if the biopsy is neg would we be gluten-free anyway with the way her bloods were - I assume we would.

Thank you SO SO SO much for that link!!!!! We are kosher too so all of these items would have come up at some point in time. I am printing the whole thread out with what's left of my ink cartridge :)

Not sure where you live but my family owns kosher restaurants in NY. Although they haven't started to make special gluten-free versions of stuff, we have determined a lot of their mainstream items (inlcuding most of their soups) are gluten-free. Let me know if you live in the NY area and I'll give you the info.

Oh and the site Lori was referring to that will deliver gluten-free Challah is Everbody Eats Inc. I haven't tried the challah yet but my assistant ordered me the brownies for my birthday and they were amazing!!!

Hey Jillian - I'm right near you, in Bergen county! I would love to know which restaurants! We are seeing Philip Kazlow at Presbyterian. We have Whole Foods near us. DD's metabolic dr is at WCMC so I sometimes go to Mrs. Green's. We used to live in Hartsdale. Talk to you later!

Hey, If anybody has the cookbook 'Gluten-free gourmet', that has a Challah recipe... in case you wanted to know.. :rolleyes:

steveindenver Contributor

The problem I've found with baking gluten-free challah is it definitely doesn't have that same consistency as regular gluten filled goodness challah. But if someone has a fantastic recipe, I'm willing to try it again. I've made Bette Hagemans, and it smells like challah but definitely isn't the real thing. Sigh...

Hi all - There area few challah recipes and some discussion of how to make gluten-free challah posted on AllergicJews:

I still haven't tried making challah because I"m so afraid of being disappointed

      What do you mean when you say, "blood thinners are all the same to me"? Do you mean you react negatively in the same way to all of them? Otherwise, they are not all the same. They work in different ways. Aspirin causes the platelets to be less sticky. Warfarin and related meds work by reducing the production of platelets. You might talk to your doctor about alternatives to aspirin.

      That's interesting because I think that the lousy 81 mg irritates my gut. I'm sensitive to drugs in general and blood thinners are all the same to me so aspirin necessary evil. As they say, better to be a live chicken than a dead duck.

      I've been using a Brita water filter for well over a decade without any issues. I seriously doubt that these water filter companies would use glues that would end up in your water, as that would be counter to what they are trying to do, which is to purify tap water. Please provide some specific evidence to back this claim up, as such speculation can cause undo fear, as well as reputational damage to these companies. Don't get me wrong here, I am not saying that this isn't possible, but is very unlikely.

      Welcome to the forum, @aperlo34! You said you had a colonoscopy "ordered" in July? Has that procedure happened yet? A colonoscopy cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease so I assume the order for the colonoscopy is to check for something else. The procedure used to diagnose celiac disease is the endoscopy. So, I assume you have had blood antibody testing done and it was positive and then you had an endoscopy/biopsy done to confirm those results? That is the normal process for diagnosing celiac disease. Have your constipation/irregularity problems improved since going gluten free? Some of the continuing symptoms you describe would seem to fall into the category of neurological effects (muscle twitching, shakiness, weakness and headaches) and others such as dry eyes, fatigue, stiffness and joint aches sound like they could be autoimmune effects. Are you taking any high potency to vitamin and mineral supplements? Celiac disease often/typically results in vitamin and mineral deficiencies due to malabsorption from the damage to the small bowel lining it causes. I note that your vitamin D levels are barely within normal range and the only B vitamin testes is B12. The B vitamins and D3 are very important to neurological health. And the several B vitamins all work together synergistically. So, they all need to be up to snuff, not just B12. I would suggest starting on D3 supplementation in the amount of about 5000 IU daily and also a high potency B-complex. Costco's Nature Made and Kirkland brand products are good quality and priced well and usually gluten free (and will state so on the packaging). Realize also that gluten free flours and facsimile foods are not fortified as are their FDA mandated gluten equivalents. So, when you cut out gluten, you cut out a significant source of vitamins. One thing to be aware of is that Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder and autoimmune disorders tend to cluster. That is, when you have one you there is a good chance you will develop others in time. I don't wish to alarm you because I know you have said you already struggle with heath anxiety but many of your symptoms make me think you have some other autoimmune condition going on in addition to celiac disease. Have you been checked for Sjogren's or lupus for instance?  Finally, I am including an article that is helpful to newly diagnosed celiacs in getting a head start on the learning curve of eating gluten free:
