Need White Bread Recipe

Hello Everyone,

As the start of school is quickly approaching, I am still nervous about being able to provide a satifactory lunch for my son.

I know that I can pack things like Hormal Chilli, and Dinty Moore beef stew, but my 12 yr. old leaves for school about 7:15 and does not return home again untill 4:45- 5:00. He plays soccer after school.

The truth is making a cold lunch that includes a sandwich is not only easier it is also what my son is going to preferr.

I have tried a lot of bread reipes (I don't own a bread machine ,yet) but they all seem to end up with that same "texture". Somehow no matter what flours I seem to use I don't know how to achieve the "pliability" that white bread has.

My sons favorite sandwich is peanut butter, no jelly. He has taken it almost every day for 2 yrs. Talk about a food jag!!!!!! If I tried this on the current gluten free breads that would be a very dry sandwich, also if it had to be toasted I can't see it holding up untill school lunch time.

A friend of mine I met here gave me a great hamburger and hot dog roll recipe that me and my son are very pleased with, so I am hoping to get lucky with a bread recipe.

:( Oh, hey, this is a tough one. I find I can't make anything as good as my local bakery makes and they won't give me the recipe! But have you tried the cornstarch bread in the Bette Hagman book? It's good for one day....very soft and "wonder bread" like. And it can be made with a regular hand mixer from easy to find ingredients. After the first day though, you have to freeze it. I then nuke it for 20 seconds and slather on my peanut butter at work. Not so easy for your son.

I really hope someone answers this call and posts a good recipe. I'm just as desperate!

Would you be willing to post your hamburger/hotdog bun recipe? ;)

Hey, My son eats pb sandwiches almost exclusively as well! He can't stand jelly. I know you said you've tried gluten-free breads and weren't happy with them, but I have to tell you... We use the kinnikinnick white tapioca rice breads and they are fine. Not only fine, but very good. I lightly toast them in the morning, make the sandwiches put them in a baggie. My 10 year old has been taking turkey, lettuce, mayo sandwiches to camp all summer on Kinnikinnick and says it's great. I like the kinnikinnick bread because it's thin enough to bite through, and large enough to make a filling sandwich on. For my 7 year old son, I usually make a half a sandwich and suppliment with fruit, pretzels, etc. I cannot stress enough that this bread has made my life completely easy now. I'd still be struggling with this diet if I didn't have this bread. For a weird sandwich idea, my daughter likes the Lifestream buckwheat wildberry waffles with peanut butter and jelly. I haven't sent that concoction to school, so I don't know how it would hold up...but a waffle sandwich is an idea you may not have considered...for obvious reasons. :blink:

Thanks for the posts, but I have tried the kinnikinnik bread and he does not like that one either. I find it to be very good, but it is not like your ordinary wonder bread.

He will eat the homemade breads when they come out of the oven and are still warm, after that he does not like the smell or the taste.

No Sandra I do not own that book but it must be very good, I see a lot of people referring to it.

I will get that recipe to you as soon as possible, I have 2 children leaving for college this week . Our lives are crazy right now :blink: You will be impressed because the rolls turn out similiar to what you were used to pre celiac. They are soft and freeze well.

:) Thank you! I would appreciate it, especially if they freeze. I will forward you the cornstarch bread recipe so you can try it once atleast and see if it does the trick. It's my favorite PB & J recipe. Sandra

I tried the Gluten Free Pantry's Sandwich Bread and it wasn't bad. It's MUCH better than their French Bread. My aunt made a loaf of this in her bread machine, hollowed out the inside, filled with ham, turkey, roast beef, swiss, tomatoes, onions, peppers and Italian dressing, put the top back on, wrapped it up and we took it on a picnic when our hubbys went fishing. We just sliced out big hunks of it. It was quite good.

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      By trents · Posted

      What do you mean when you say, "blood thinners are all the same to me"? Do you mean you react negatively in the same way to all of them? Otherwise, they are not all the same. They work in different ways. Aspirin causes the platelets to be less sticky. Warfarin and related meds work by reducing the production of platelets. You might talk to your doctor about alternatives to aspirin.

      That's interesting because I think that the lousy 81 mg irritates my gut. I'm sensitive to drugs in general and blood thinners are all the same to me so aspirin necessary evil. As they say, better to be a live chicken than a dead duck.

      Water filters and gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've been using a Brita water filter for well over a decade without any issues. I seriously doubt that these water filter companies would use glues that would end up in your water, as that would be counter to what they are trying to do, which is to purify tap water. Please provide some specific evidence to back this claim up, as such speculation can cause undo fear, as well as reputational damage to these companies. Don't get me wrong here, I am not saying that this isn't possible, but is very unlikely.

      2 months in... struggling with symptoms

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @aperlo34! You said you had a colonoscopy "ordered" in July? Has that procedure happened yet? A colonoscopy cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease so I assume the order for the colonoscopy is to check for something else. The procedure used to diagnose celiac disease is the endoscopy. So, I assume you have had blood antibody testing done and it was positive and then you had an endoscopy/biopsy done to confirm those results? That is the normal process for diagnosing celiac disease. Have your constipation/irregularity problems improved since going gluten free? Some of the continuing symptoms you describe would seem to fall into the category of neurological effects (muscle twitching, shakiness, weakness and headaches) and others such as dry eyes, fatigue, stiffness and joint aches sound like they could be autoimmune effects. Are you taking any high potency to vitamin and mineral supplements? Celiac disease often/typically results in vitamin and mineral deficiencies due to malabsorption from the damage to the small bowel lining it causes. I note that your vitamin D levels are barely within normal range and the only B vitamin testes is B12. The B vitamins and D3 are very important to neurological health. And the several B vitamins all work together synergistically. So, they all need to be up to snuff, not just B12. I would suggest starting on D3 supplementation in the amount of about 5000 IU daily and also a high potency B-complex. Costco's Nature Made and Kirkland brand products are good quality and priced well and usually gluten free (and will state so on the packaging). Realize also that gluten free flours and facsimile foods are not fortified as are their FDA mandated gluten equivalents. So, when you cut out gluten, you cut out a significant source of vitamins. One thing to be aware of is that Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder and autoimmune disorders tend to cluster. That is, when you have one you there is a good chance you will develop others in time. I don't wish to alarm you because I know you have said you already struggle with heath anxiety but many of your symptoms make me think you have some other autoimmune condition going on in addition to celiac disease. Have you been checked for Sjogren's or lupus for instance?  Finally, I am including an article that is helpful to newly diagnosed celiacs in getting a head start on the learning curve of eating gluten free:
