The Best Gf Bread Ever!

I think someone already posted about this, but it deserves a second airing! I just made a loaf of gluten (and dairy) free bread from a mix by Breads From Anna. This bread is amazing. The texture is exactly like real bread, it's chewy and stretchy and light. Tastes fantastic. Next time I think I will replace the olive oil with (DF) butter and maybe substitute salt for the sugar (or just add some extra salt) - but that's my English tastebuds. American wheat bread always tasted too sweet to me anyway.

I feel like a whole new world has opened up! Only downside is, I think my Paleo diet just became extinct! :lol:

Oh yeah, here's the link: Open Original Shared Link

It's not cheap, but god is it worth it!

I have been raving about this bread for a year, I love it! It is better then some gluten breads in my book. I do mine in a bread maching but I keep wanting to try it in a french bread roll so I can then make crostini out of it and use it for dipping in olive oil, garlic and red peppers. Yum.

I am certain I am her best customer! I buy it by the case (the regular mix) and make it into loaves. I slice it with my handy-dandy knife that cuts uniform slices and freeze them in packets of 2 for sammies to take to work. I also make it in English Muffin rounds for rolls.

Anna (with whom I've emailed) said it makes great pizza crusts too, but I've not tried that.

It was the ONE terrific find that took away all my feelings of deprivation at having to follow a gluten-free diet.

I agree, Anna's breads are a gift from heaven. I use the regular bread mix. I am lucky, as I can buy the mix locally and bake two loaves with the one bag of mix. It is much cheaper than buying a loaf of that disgusting gluten-free bread they sell in the freezer in specialty stores! If Anna (who lives in Iowa) were here right now, I would give her a big hug and kiss!!! :D

Dear Luvs2eat:

Can you share Anna's email address with me? I would love to tell her how much she is brightening the lives of Celiacs. Thanks.

glutenrevolution@eathlink.net is her address. Also, she is about to introduce a new gluten-free pie crust very soon. I'm so excited! :rolleyes:

Good timing - I just made my first loaf last night. I bought it over 6 months ago but finally hauled out my bread machine. It IS awesome! I was emailing with Anna today, too, because on her website, all of the mixes have potato starch in them, but the one I made last night didn't. She looked into it and the regular one does not have potato starch - the website is in error. Just in case anyone else is nightshade-intolerant like me.

I had the best chicken salad sandwich today, and didn't even have to toast the bread! I hope I can handle the cornstarch and the bean content because I would have to have to give up this bread. Looking at my checking account - can I buy a case right now???

PS on edit - most amazinig was the fact I didn't have to fish out my bread machine's paddle before the second kneading cycle, like I have read to do with so many gluten-free bread recipes... ahhhhh, just pushed a button and it went!

this might be a dumb question -- but can you also make the mix with a mixer (i.e. without the bread machine)? i don't have a bread machine; actually, i don't have the mixer yet either, but i'm hoping Santa will be good to me this year! i need fresh bread. :(

Sure you can, my mom mixes it by hand and bakes it in the oven. I will say the texture of hers is a bit different then mine but the taste is the same. I would think with a mixer it would be more "mixed up" like the cycle in my bread machine (as opposed to my moms hand mixing) and would be more like the consistancy of mine.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
