Ok guys, bear with me because this is a recipe in progress... I just made the most delicious french bread mini-rolls. They actually taste and feel like REAL french bread!!! The outside is crispy, but not hard and the inside is soft but not too dense. They are amazing! I didn't measure the milk, but everything else is right...

1 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)

1 pkt active dry rapid rise yeast

1 or 2 tablespoons white sugar (depending on your tastes)

2 tablespoons canola oil

1 teaspoon salt

2 cups white rice flour

1 cup potato starch

1 cup tapioca starch

4 tsp xantham gum

1 pkt Knox unflavored gelatin

milk (?) (or milk alternative)

1. Mix water, yeast, and sugar and let sit for approx 8 minutes

2. While waiting mix gelatin, flours, and xantham gum in stand mixer

3. Add oil and salt to yeast mixture

4. Combine all ingredients

5. Add milk until mixture gets sticky (maybe 1/4 cup-ish???) and let it sit for 10 mins.

6. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F

7. Scoop dough into a greased mini-muffin pan

8. optional: brush tops with egg for color

9. Cook until tops and bottoms are golden brown (approximately 10 minutes???)

The dough should be thicker than pancake batter, but thinner than traditional gluten french bread dough. I also added 2 Tbsp minced garlic, 2 Tbsp chopped parsley, and 1 Tbsp mined onion, but I tend to add garlic and onion to everything I make. I tried it without and it was still really, really, really good. This recipe would probably be good with less milk made like soft pretzels. Mmmmm....

Hi Angie

it sounds like you have a winner of a recipe for your family! Can you give an estimate on the milk for the newbies on here? I'm sure many will not know how much to dump into the mix!

thanks

I believe it was approx. 1/4 cup, certainly no more than that. It may have been closer to an 1/8 cup. I really just started dumping slowly until the texture looked right.

I have a feeling you could leave out the gelatin without adversely affecting results. You could halve the recipe and try it with pectin to see what happens.

I have to do dairy free, what would you suggest. I don't really like the after taste of rice milk but I don't know if that would make a difference in the milk. I use mostly soy and almond for cooking and baking.

I believe agar agar would be a better substitute for gelatin than pectin, especially most types of pectin, as they don't gel without a lot of sugar.

I'd think almond milk should work fine. Cow's milk is essentially an emulsion of fat, protein and water, so anything like that may have some potential. Coconut milk might work too.

I made some for my daughter with soy milk and they turned out well, just slightly sweeter because the soy milk is sweetened. I imagine almond milk would probably be better though.

It is the white chocolate mousse cake that my husband got for me for Valentine's day at a semi-local gluten-free bakery. It was amazing!

These were absolutely delicious! I have been trying recipe after recipe to try to find something close to the crispy bread that I miss. These were fantastic. Thanks for the recipe! Do you think they would also work with brown rice flour?

      Testing

      By trents · Posted

      Have you considered the possibility that you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) rather than celiac disease? They share many of the same symptoms, the difference being that NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. There is no test yet available for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. In view of your genetic profile, I would give it consideration.

      Help with results

      By mariamccl · Posted

      Hi, 25f who recently had a endoscopy procedure to diagnose celiac disease. Mum and uncle are both diagnosed celiacs. I've had symptoms over the past year - headaches that have become debilitating and frequent, feeling faint and nauseous with high heart rate, diarrhea and constipation, anemia, and recently my periods have become almost non existent. My doctor sent me a letter yesterday saying this " biopsies from the duodenum show some very mild features that could be in keeping with celiac disease but also could be due to other causes". I am waiting on an appointment to see him in the clinic to discuss this but in the meantime I wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this? I was eating plenty of gluten before my camera test and for the past 2 weeks have completely cut it out of my diet and I'm seeing changes in my bowel movements for the first time in my life! Headaches, dizziness etc are still there but maybe it takes longer for them to go away? Any help would be so appreciated -  I feel so lost in this whole process!!

      Did your symptoms improve after going on a gluten-free diet?

      Thank you for sharing your genetic test results and background. Your results indicate you carry one half of the DQ2 heterodimer (DQA1*05), which is associated with a very low celiac disease risk (0.05%). While most celiac patients have either DQ2 or DQ8, these genes are also present in people without celiac disease, so the test alone doesn’t confirm a diagnosis. Since you’ve been gluten-free for 10 years, traditional diagnostic methods (like endoscopy or blood tests) would not be reliable now. If an official diagnosis is important to you, consider discussing a gluten challenge with your doctor, where you reintroduce gluten for a period before testing. Alternatively, you could focus on symptom management and dietary adherence, as your gluten-free diet seems to be helping. Consulting a gastroenterologist or celiac specialist could provide further clarity.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
