Challah Recipe?

Anyone have a gluten-free challah recipe for either bread machine or by hand? This and pizza are the 2 things dd is most upset about. I know there are rice-crust pizza dough recipies and products, but I haven't seen anything about challah (Jewish egg-bread). Thanks!

Oh yes, I would die for some challah bread!

I did see a website from NYC where you could get 2 loaves of challah for $16, and they would ship it for $10 within NYC. So, I'm figuring to get it to Calgary, I'd probably have to re-mortgage my house!

According to GFCFdiet.com, Lori Bakes (724-941-7817 loribakes@adelphia.net) does homemade breads in her kitchen, including challah bread:

Banana Bread

Banana Nut Bread

WONDERful White Bread

WONDERful Hamburger Buns

WONDERful Mini Hamburger Buns

WONDERful Hot Dog Buns

Corn Bread

Challah (Egg Bread)

Cinnamon Raisin Bread

She doesn't have a web site yet but on the Gluten-free Casein-free site they make it sound like she bakes as a home business, I bet if you email she will send you prices, etc.

Wow! Thanks for all the help! We just got the date for the biopsy - 10/28. I'm going to have some challah waiting for her just in case. Dr is on vaca - when he's back I will try to find out if the biopsy is neg would we be gluten-free anyway with the way her bloods were - I assume we would.

Thank you SO SO SO much for that link!!!!! We are kosher too so all of these items would have come up at some point in time. I am printing the whole thread out with what's left of my ink cartridge :)

Not sure where you live but my family owns kosher restaurants in NY. Although they haven't started to make special gluten-free versions of stuff, we have determined a lot of their mainstream items (inlcuding most of their soups) are gluten-free. Let me know if you live in the NY area and I'll give you the info.

Oh and the site Lori was referring to that will deliver gluten-free Challah is Everbody Eats Inc. I haven't tried the challah yet but my assistant ordered me the brownies for my birthday and they were amazing!!!

Hey Jillian - I'm right near you, in Bergen county! I would love to know which restaurants! We are seeing Philip Kazlow at Presbyterian. We have Whole Foods near us. DD's metabolic dr is at WCMC so I sometimes go to Mrs. Green's. We used to live in Hartsdale. Talk to you later!

Hey, If anybody has the cookbook 'Gluten-free gourmet', that has a Challah recipe... in case you wanted to know.. :rolleyes:

steveindenver Contributor

The problem I've found with baking gluten-free challah is it definitely doesn't have that same consistency as regular gluten filled goodness challah. But if someone has a fantastic recipe, I'm willing to try it again. I've made Bette Hagemans, and it smells like challah but definitely isn't the real thing. Sigh...

Hi all - There area few challah recipes and some discussion of how to make gluten-free challah posted on AllergicJews:

(Hope that link works)

I still haven't tried making challah because I"m so afraid of being disappointed

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!

      Have you tried a genetic test to look for Celiac genes?  No gluten challenge required.

      Hello, @ElisaAllergiesgluten, Have you tried going on a low histamine Paleo diet like the Autoimmune Protocol diet?  A low histamine AIP diet would help your body rid itself of the extra histamine it's making in response to allergies.  Are you Celiac as well?   Since we need more thiamine when we're stressed, adding Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine Vitamin B 1, can help the body calm down it's release of histamine.  Benfotiamine improves Sailors' asthma.

      Don't skimp on the gluten daily while undergoing the gluten challenge!
