Hello everyone, I am looking for yummy gluten free bread, cake and cookie recipies, I have been thru about 10 of the 375 pages and well thats just too much.

If anyone feels like sharing their recipies it would be greatly appreciated. I am currently using the Jules gluten free flour blend which is working well but all of my bread is falling in the middle. Pretty much all of my bread falls in the middle whether I use the blend from the store or mix my own.

Recipies and tips are greatly welcome.

Thank you.

We love this recipe for banana bread. All the folks at church today were raving about it and very suprized when I told them it was gluten-free. Open Original Shared Link My kiddo can't have nuts so I just subbed extra oat(certified gluten-free) flour for the almond meal.

Your breads may need extra baking time. I find that most gluten-free baked goods need to be baked past the point at which I feel that they are done. If they start to brown too much, you can cover parts(top) with aluminum foil to protect it.

I've found that a simple flat bread works the best. I make this almost every day and we use it for sandwiches, hamburgers, hotdogs and even pizza crust. (Not my favorite pizza crust, but passable if you add Romano cheese to the batter.) It's soft and flexible and has a good taste. My son and I are on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD), so we use almond or coconut flour, but I'm sure it would work fine with a gluten free flour. I would guess that you wouldn't even need xanthan gum.

Soft Flat Bread

4 Egg Whites

2 Egg Yolks

1/2 C Almond Flour (or 2 Tbs Coconut Flour)

1 tsp. honey

1 tsp. butter

dash of salt

Beat egg whites until almost forming stiff peaks. Beat egg yolks with honey, butter and salt. Add yolk mixture to egg whites, sprinkle on flour. Stir gently until well-blended. Spread on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper to make a 12" x 12" square (or 14" square if using extra large eggs). It will be half an inch thick or less. Bake at 350 for 12 minutes. Slide bread, parchment paper and all, off cookie sheet and onto cooling rack immediately after getting out of the oven. Gently peel paper off as soon as it is cool enough to handle.

You can also make individual "buns" by making little 4" circles with the batter and baking as above. It's nice to have something that looks more like a hamburger bun, but they do flatten out a little. All my kids, even the 2 that aren't gluten free like these.

Good luck!

I cannot wait to try this recipe. I bake with both almond and coconut flour. Why is it a 1/2 c. of almond flour but, only 2T or coconut flour?

Thanks-

I am to lazy to try doing breads my self. I either buy ready loafs online from Katz Gluten Free.

recently,though we were given a demo at our Support Group meeting of Bready company. They will sell bread makers along with ready bread mixes. We tried it than and there. The bread tasted yummy and it sounded E-Z as pie to bake!

take a look at their demo online at my bready demo!

Coconut flour "sucks" up moisture like crazy because it's so high in fiber. You always use less of it in a recipe.

The Bready Machine: While I think this is a nifty gadget, one thing I don't care for is you will be held hostage to buying only their mixes. You can not use this with other mixes or make your own bread.Also the cost of the mixes could go sky high in price, no one knows. I'm a gadget person but for that much money I would think twice. I suggest a good bread machine like the zoirushi that one could make many things ......

Just my opinion but I hear the bread in the bready is very tasty...tempting but a no for me. Maybe the price will come down in the near future.

Have you tried Chex cereals? Rice, Corn, Honey Nut and Cinnamon are all gluten-free and kid friendly. The flatbread recipe above is the best bread for sandwiches that I've hdd since being gluten-free, but it's not great just plain. The Ener-G breads are yucky, but the Lite Tapioca is pretty good for things like french toast and grilled sandwiches. Do you know about the super easy peanut butter cookie recipe? (1 C peanut butter, 1 C sugar, 1 egg, mix together, drop onto cookie sheet and bake at 375 for 10 minutes.) Good luck! It takes a while to get used to, but you'll get the hang of it soon.

I'm going to try this tomorrow...but can you use rice flour? And if so, how much?

I haven't made it with rice flour, but I think it would work fine. I'd use the same amount as almond flour. Let us know if it works!

I just posted a new thread about a bread I made last night. It's Gluten Free Pantry French Bread and Pizza crust mix. It really works like a nice white bread. I had a sandwich today and it didn't fall apart. I love it!!!

      Testing

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Once you have removed the inflammatories, it is time to focus on the deficiencies.  A lot of them not specific to Celiac, but deficiency in them elicits symptoms associated with Celiac. According to research, celiac disease tends to be more prevalent in urban areas compared to rural areas.  Same is true with airborne viruses.  Because urban residents get less sunlight.  To top it off we use lotion and gear to block the little light there is.  This compremises the vitamin D blood level.  A virus attack further lowers vitamin D and the immune system loses control over the Celiac genes and they go into acute symptoms. 40% to 75% depending depending on country are vitamin D deficient. 50% do not eat the Adequit Intake for potassium (4700 mg a day) 90% do n ot eat the Adequit Intake for Choline. Iodine intake since 1970 had dropped 50%.  The western diet is typically excessive in omega 6 fatty acid compared to omega 3.  Above 14:1 by some estimates.  So they sell us expensive, processed oils to compensate.  Anyway after 10 years gluten free myself,  here is what has helped me in just the past few years; once I realized I was at a healing plateau and just GFD would not cut it, and reallized my deficiencies.  Most recently, I started a statin which I only took for two weeks before it started to cripple me.   Got a prescription for Nicotinic Acid to 2000 and am more flexible now Plus HDL went 29 to 44, eGFR from 55 to 79. I also learned if the pharmacist gets a prescription for Niacin that it is dealer's choice whether you get Nicotinic Acid or Niacinimide.  And it comes out of a regular vitamin manufacturer.   "likely deficiencies and what I take to boost my intake (I get anorexic at the drop of a hat so I take them to keep me stable):  the ones that helped me the most noticibly Was increasing vitamin D blood level to 80 ng/ml and Iodine to 500 mcg once or twice a day, Thiamine, Choline, and Iodine. 10,000 IU vitamin D 500 mg Thiamine or more Choline Iodine – 600 to 1200 mcg of Liquid Iodine Vitamin B2 helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It plays a vital role in maintaining the body's energy supply.  500 mg Nicotinic Acid - increase capillary blood flow, lower cholesterol. I recently started 2000 mg a day instead of a statin which I cannot tolerate. I the first month my HDL went from 29 to 44. eGFR (kidney function) jumped from 55 ti 75. It also has make my whole body less stiff. The ichy, flushing with the first few doses goes away. The non flush forms of vitamin B3 do not work. It is the relaxing of the capillaries and tendons. 500 mg Pantothenic Acid vitamin B5 Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Vegetables  Eating more of the vegetables low in omega six and high omega 3 can reduce inflammation Whole Milk Vanilla yogurt to which I add 100 grams of raspberrys, black berries and blueberries has lots of probiotics and makes my tummy and body happy. Red Bull has sugar (not high fructose corn syrup) and the vitamins (B2,3,5,6 need to metabolize to ATP energy and Taurine as an antioxident). It is a good source of energy for me because my genetic hyperlipidemia does not process complex carbs well.

      For people with celiac disease and corn intolerance from it: Is salt still okay for most people?

      By trents · Posted

      Gluten-like cross reactions to other foods are from the proteins that make them up. Dextrose is the sugar component found in corn.

      By Ryangf · Posted

      I just found out a few days ago that some salt like table salt contains dextrose that’s derived from corn. I’ve been thinking about getting rid of using table salt and just using my own kosher or Himalayan salt, but tbh I’m reluctant to do it. I’ve cut out a lot of things and I don’t really want to cut out anything else that I’m not sure will effect me…in a super small amount that it might be added to salts to stabilize the iodine. I don’t want to be further alienated when I have to go to a restaurant with my friends. Also most of the items at my house that have salt in it canned food etc. are some of the few quick things I can eat- because I’m not the one paying for the food in my household and i can only ask for so much. I’m not in a place financially where I can get a lot of my specialized items- although my family tries their best to get items I Can actually stand. I get I can bring a my own salt with me at a restaurant and ask for no seasoning but it feels like a lot to me- cause I already check for cross contamination and ask if the food has like a high volume of corn in it like cornstarch etc. I’ve also heard most dextrose is not derived from the Zein (corn gluten) portion of it- so it might be safe- but idk if that’s true. I just wanna know if anyone actually responded to it negatively.

      I’m so confused…

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      For my first couple of years after discovering my celiac disease I also had to avoid cow's milk/casein and eggs, as well as other things, but could tolerate duck eggs and sheep and goat's milk products. I'm not sure if you've tried those, but it could be worth testing them out.

      Hello, @Kwinkle, How are you doing?   Have you tried adding a Magnesium supplement?   The B Complex vitamins need magnesium to work properly, especially thiamine vitamin B 1.   Magnesium deficiency symptoms and Thiamine deficiency symptoms both include gas and bloating.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms also include loss of appetite and fatigue.   My gas and bloating resolved rather quickly when I took Benfotiamine (a form of thiamine shown to promote intestinal healing) and Magnesium Glycinate in addition to my B 50 Complex (all twice a day plus the following...).   I found Magnesium L-Threonate or Magnesium Taurate are better when taken with a form of thiamine called TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl dusulfide) because all of these cross the blood brain barrier easily, which corrects the loss of appetite, fatigue and anxiety.    Like @Celiacandme said, keeping a food/mood/poo'd journal is a big help in finding problematic foods, and for making sure your diet is not carbohydrate heavy.  If you're eating a lot if processed gluten free facsimile foods, be aware they do not have vitamins and minerals added to them like their gluten containing counterparts.  For every 1000 kcal of carbohydrates, we need an extra 500 mg of thiamine to turn them into energy and not store them as fat.   Let us know how you're doing!
