What's Equivalent To Refrigerated French Dough Bread


Carin3

Recommended Posts

Hi- I am trying to figure out what I can use in place of Pillsbury's refrigerated french dough bread. I want to make a appetizer and I have these pampered chef bread tins I used to use all the time. What you normally do is put the french dough bread down inside a tin, put the lid on then bake in the oven. When you slice it you have shaped bread for little mini sandwiches etc. Anyone have any suggestions would I could do instead?? Thank you!

First, do make completely certain that the pans are scrubbed of all possible traces of gluten. Nooks, crannies, and scratches can make it darn near impossible to get clean. If they have deeply contoured inner surfaces, it may be better/safer to replace them, especially if they have been well used.

For the bead dough, there are so many bread mixes and recipes to choose from, there really isn't just one answer. It depends a lot on your preferences. A mix which one person likes, another may hate. But I think it would probably be a good idea to search the recipe section on Celiac.com for French bread, and try those. There are also a number of pre-made mixes, if you prefer those, and the companies typically have recipes on their websites.

Is this the tin you are using: Open Original Shared Link

If that's it I would think it would be very hard to clean to make sure there's not gluten in the scallops. It's on sale for just $2 right now. I would get another one for gluten free stuff. If you don't have time to replace it then I would do something else like get some gluten free crackers and make your appetizers on those instead.

As far as the bread goes you will need to experiment. I have yet to find any Gluten free dough that is the same consistency as canned bread dough. Gluten free doughs tend to either be like a cake batter or they are very stiff and crumbly. Chebe bread mix makes a dough that similar to bread dough BUT it doesn't rise the same as a gluten bread would. I think the rising part will be the hardest for you to figure out. If you have not yet made gluten free bread then you may want to hold off on trying to make these appetizers until you have mastered plain gluten free bread.

Gluten Free Pantry has a french bread mix. I haven't tried it, but my local restaurant uses it for their pizza crust and it is very tasty! :D

      Since your symptoms are so severe and obvious, I can't really think of a compelling reason to get the confirmation, especially when weighed against some of the downsides of having an official diagnosis that are mentioned in the thread I shared. For people in the UK and other countries where their health care system offers food subsidies for those with celiac disease it does make sense--and most of those counties also have universal healthcare where the diagnosis would not be a factor.

      Hi Scott, Thanks for the great information. The "negotiation" is my euphemism for the discussion with the nurse at my doc's clinic and eventually, the doctor. It took place because they said I would have to be on gluten again for 6 weeks prior to the upper endoscopy/biopsy. As I stated previously, I am highly reactive to tiny amounts of gluten and the impact lasts for weeks and can be debilitating. The first time I had COVID I thought I had been contaminated at a friend's house because I had all those symptoms (extreme joint pain, muscle pain, exhaustion/fatigue, coughing, worsening asthma attacks, more) but no fever. It turned out to be COVID and the fever came a day after the initial group of symptoms. Granted, not all contaminations are the same in the intensity of their impact, but to have gluten every day for 6 weeks --- I know I could not handle it and as I'm self-employed I could not afford to work minimally for much of that time. Hence, the discussion/negotiation/whatever you want to call it. They asked me how long I thought I could tolerate it, I said maybe a week. Then I was contaminated at a restaurant and was reminded of the impact for the following 2.5 weeks and I started getting anxious about doing this to myself for such a long time, wondering how long it would last and worrying that the dermatitis herpetiformas would come back which took more than a year of excruciating itching to clear up completely. So, that's the back story. Neither the doc or the nurse mentioned 2 weeks, but it doesn't matter at this point. I don't think its worth it even for the one week, especially if as you say they may not be able to gather any information from that, although I don't know how that would be true being that my immune system knows with less than a crumb and gets busy attacking my small bowel. I can't imagine that wouldn't show up in there, but I guess that could be the case, so again, not worth starting the new year feeling like crap and unable to get the money I need to pay my bills/survive in the bigger picture. The blood work that was used for my initial diagnosis was done after I had been eating gluten my entire life, so well beyond the gluten challenge. Thank you, though, for taking the time to share the resources and your perspective!

      You can buy gluten-free cheese sauce powder on Amazon, or you can buy gluten-free macaroni and cheese, which include a cheese sauce packet. Many alfredo sauces in the jar are also gluten-free.

      You may want to look at this thread before you proceed:  Also, I am not sure why you would "negotiate" a 7-10 gluten challenge, when the science indicates that such a length of time is likely not long enough.  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:
