Gluten Free Panini Suggestions

Does anyone have any good tasting bread suggestions for making panini sandwiches?

I recently purchased a panini grill and would love to make a "real" sandwich using a gluten free bread that doesn't taste and feel like a brick!

I tried the millet bread once where you had to keep it frozen, then try to toast it...disgusting! I would really like to be able to use the press since I have not had a sandwich in about a year.

Here is a really good recipe that might work. It's made for wraps, but you could use two pieces for top and bottom.

Flat Bread for sandwich wraps

I have had such good luck using Whole Foods gluten-free Bakehouse breads for paninis, kind of pricey for a loaf but they really hold up and make a good sandwich imo.

My gluten eating family loves them too.

There are a few things you have to do to prep:

The bread is kept in the frozen section so thaw it out completely.

Then I found if I put the slices in a pan in the oven for a few minutes once thawed, it warms the bread all the way through and plumps them up (otherwise if you grill them or put it in the panini press before this step just the outside of the bread is warm and the inside is room temp and a little on the dry side)

We use Ener-G foods LIGHT Tapioca Bread to make Panini sandwiches. Even my gluten eating kids love them.

Really? I've only tried the Ener-g brown rice loaf and it was disgusting. Makes a nice stuffing, though, strangely enough....

I tried their hamburger buns and I liked them! They got a little gooey on the top but they had good flavor:)

Really! Ener-G Brown rice loaf is disgusting, but the Light Tapioca is really, actually GOOD for paninis.

We always use Kinnikinnick tapioca rice bread and I have found that we can make anything with it. It isn't as good if it's not grilled or toasted, but it's the best bread we have found. I made my step son a tuna melt with it for his lunch the other day and he scarfed it right down. It's what I would use for panini's.

      @Jane07, welcome to the forum! Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients is common in Celiac Disease.  Supplementing with vitamins and minerals that are commonly low in the newly diagnosed can help immensely with recovery.   Vitamin D is frequently low.  Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  The eight essential B vitamins help repair and maintain our body's health.  Magnesium, calcium, zinc and other minerals are necessary, too.  Vitamin C helps, as well.  Benfotiamine, A form of Thiamine, has been shown to promote intestinal healing. Are you still consuming dairy?  Eliminating dairy may bring some improvements.  Have you tried the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet?  Developed by a Celiac, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, the AIP diet can improve symptoms while healing.

      What would a diagnosis tell me?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum! A blood test for Celiac looks for the amount of antibodies your body is producing in response to gluten.  An endoscopy looks at the damage done by the antibodies attacking the villi lining the intestines.   When you have a cold or infection, antibodies are made that attack the foreign invader.  In Celiac Disease, our immune system recognizes gluten as a foreign invader and launches antibodies against it.  However, the gluten particles resembles the same structural components in our body cells.  As a result, the anti gluten antibodies attack our own cells, causing damage like flattening villi in the intestines and also potentially attacking vital organs like the thyroid, the pancreas, the brain, and the heart.   Gluten itself does not stay in the body for years.  The anti gluten antibodies stay in the body for years.  Our bodies remember gluten and continue making antibodies against gluten which continue to damage our bodies for years.  Eventually, if not triggered by gluten ingestion for two years or longer, our bodies may go into remission and stop producing the antibodies and thus end the inflammation and damage. You should be afraid.  You should be very afraid.  Consuming gluten accidentally or intentionally can start the while cycle over again from the beginning.  And getting to that state of remission again can take years.   A dietician or a nutritionist can advise you on how to start and sustain a gluten free diet while meeting your nutritional requirements.  We need essential vitamins and minerals to heal and maintain our health.  The gluten free diet can be lacking in essential nutrients unless we eat mindfully.  A nutritionist can teach us which foods will help us meet our nutritional requirements, and help us correct nutritional deficiencies with vitamin and mineral supplements.

      UK Member Looking For Help - Recent Test

      By cristiana · Posted

      @LeeRoy83    Hello again.  Picking up on something else you said re: the shock that you may be a coeliac. It may has come as a shock to learn that coeliac disease is a possibility, but if that is the case, although it can be at times a bit of a nuisance not to be able to eat gluten anymore, it has been my experience that most of my friends and acquaintances who have it have adapted to it well, and are thriving.  Although statistically it affects 1 in a 100 people, I know more than that, strangely, so I can see first hand how the diet can make a big difference for most people. In the UK we are blessed with a wonderful selection of gluten free food on sale in the shops, which seems to be ever-increasing, well labelled food packaging making it easier to determine if food contains gluten, a fabulous charity called Coeliac UK who provide a lot of very helpful information, including a gluten free food app and guide that you can take shopping with you, and good follow-up care provided by the NHS.   But that's for another day - IF you have indeed got Coeliac Disease.   Do meet up with your GP, take a list of questions to ask, and then if he wants you to take the coeliac diagnosis a step forward do let us know if we can be of help  - we can walk with you every step of the way.

      Elimination diet think I may be Gluten tolerant next steps to get tested? Questions

      By trents · Posted

      No. That is, unless the dietician themself has a gluten disorder or is managing a close family member who does and therefore is immersed in it daily so as to be up on the nuances of eating gluten free. Otherwise, they just give you very general information which you can get online.
