Anna's Breads.... Out Of This World Delicious (and I've Tried Them All)!

Ever since going gluten free... the one thing I have not been able to find a worthy replacement for is bread... I've tried so many different brands... and they all taste like drywall... IMHO... I even bought bread from th gluten free breadbasket specialty bakery... and I'd all but given up hope... but I picked up an Anna's bread mix from my local health food store and figured... well... I gotta keep trying...

I had my mom bake up a couple of loaves (I can't bake bread worth a darn).... and all I can say is WOW... perfect bread texture... doesn't fall apart.... moist like bread should be... tasty... I mean it just tasted like really good homemade bread to me... so tonight I got to have my day after thanksgiving turkey sandwich... and I was soooooo happy... hubby even tried it and liked it... I had to limit him to two slices bc he was going for more when I reminded him that I needed it for me... lol...

So if you are new to this whole gluten-free thing... don't bother wasting your money on any breads... go get an Anna's mix and make up your own...

Do you know if you need a big mixer for Anna's breads or can you just use beaters or knead it by hand? THanks in advance!

I couldn't agree more. I just tried the pumpkin and banana breads the other day and they are incredible!!

You don't need a mixer for the speciality breads (such as the pumpkin and banana), but she does reccomend a mixer for the regular sandwich type of breads. So I'm asking for a bread machine for Chanukah. :)

That's how good this is, worthy of buying a bread machine!

Another kind of bread that i've found is kinnikinnick bread mix. I also have given up on buying bread loves so now i make my own. The kinnikinnick mix is very good (the best so far!) It's not a good sandwich bread...but more of a sweet bread if you add some sugar to the mix. Its also cheaper than other mixes.

And you can mix it by hand

I love Anna's mixes. You know it's cheaper to order from her by the case & it keeps for a year or two in a cool dry space.....it also makes a good pizza crust. Anna is coming out with new mixes soon. Her site is Gluten Evolution

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      After I get the endoscopy done, I’ll try to be in gluten-free diet even if I test negative for celiac disease or NCGS to avoid any complications. It does suck because I love wheat breads and Indian breads like rotis and naans, lol. I guess I have to jump to gluten-free options for those. Again, thanks for all your help.

      Gluten migranes at night

      Welcome to Celiac.com, @Debado, Migraines at night can be caused by high levels of histamine. Histamine Intolerance can cause physical symptoms like migraines. Foods contain histamine. Our bodies make histamine, an important neurotransmitter. Our bodies naturally produce more histamine at night as part of our circadian rhythm, our sleep-wake...

      A video with researcher William Parker about Helminthic Therapy

      Parker didn't exactly go out of his way to sell Helminthic Therapy in this video, did he? In other videos online he's very much positive towards HT, especially Inflammatory Bowel Disease and MS. Acetaminophen is on the list of World Health Organization's Essential Medicines, yet according to Wikipedia it also is responsible for thousands of emergency...

      What should I do with these test results?

      @Jack Common, You could do a DNA test to see if you have any of the known genes for Celiac Disease. If you don't have any genes for celiac disease, look to another source for your health problems. If you do have celiac disease genes and have improvement on the gluten free diet, you probably have active Celiac. Further testing would be beneficial. ...

      @Jack Common, You could do a DNA test to see if you have any of the known genes for Celiac Disease.  If you don't have any genes for celiac disease, look to another source for your health problems.  If you do have celiac disease genes and have improvement on the gluten free diet, you probably have active Celiac.  Further testing would be beneficial. Keep in mind that different gluten containing breads have different amounts of gluten.  Think thick chewy pizza crust and artisan breads, and whole wheat breads for the gluten challenge.  Cookies and pastries do not contain as much gluten.   Since your blood tests were inconclusive, continuing with the gluten challenge may be needed to provoke a stronger autoimmune reaction sufficient for antibodies to get into the blood stream.

      Eye irritation 2.5 months into gluten free diet

      By dirkmatthews · Posted

      I found out I had celiac because of eye problems. I developed an eye irritation that was sensitive to light, pressure, and red. My eye doctor said I had iritis, an inflammation of the iris. The treatment was prednisone drops. This is a common symptom related to ankylosing spondylitis, a form of arthritis that runs in my family. My doctor wanted to start me on immunosuppressants, but I refused due to side effects. I tried a few anti-inflammatory diets and found the specific carb diet helped, which led my doctor to test me for celiac, which was positive. Now I know when I get glutened because I have a flare up of my iritis. I call it my canary in a coal mine. First the eye, then the arthritis flare up begins.

      Importance/Necessity of a gluten-free kitchen??

      By RMJ · Posted

      Soap, water and scrubbing won’t “kill” gluten, but it will physically remove it if done well if you also add a thorough rinse step.
