Gluten Free Sandwich Bread


MichLab

Recommended Posts

I would consider this to be one of the biggest drags about being Celiac - bread.  I am trying to find a gluten-free bread for my son that does not need to be toasted that he can eat his peanut butter and jelly on at school that tastes most like gluten bread.  I myself have tried so many and have just given up and eat salads - but for my son that is not an option.  So I keep searching... Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Costco has a brand that my son loves! I'm not sure the name, but you could inquire when there. I also like the Udi's (not to be confused with Rudi's). I try not to eat too much because even gluten free breads have a lot of added sugar is seems. I don't think the Costco one does.

Thank you so much.  Is it the Energi bread?  If so would you know if it is the brown rice or tapioca type? I also look in my Costco but can't find it.  Is it in the cold case?  Sorry for so many questions. Thanks for your help!

I like Udi's bread for sandwiches. I take PB&J almost everyday for lunch untoasted. It holds together and has a texture like white bread. They also make a multigrain variety and individual pizzas that are not too bad (In case they have 'pizza day' at at school).

About the Ener-g bread. It may have changed over the years but when I was first diagnosed it was the only bread we could find.  It did have to be toasted or zapped to hold together at all. My poor DD got it in her school lunches straight out of the package and didn't let me know for the longest time that it crumbled with the first bite. Some folks do like though so it might be worth your families trying. 

You would find Ener-g on a shelf and Schars is also shelf stable. Udi's would be in the freezer section of your store along with Grainless Baker. GB makes a nice French bread. I like it with pasta or just a big hunk of a nice cheese.

The only one I have found that doesn't fall apart is Canyon Bakehouse.  It's in the frozen section.

I love the Canyon Bakehouse 7-grain gluten-free bread. It is the only bread I've found that makes me feel like I'm eating bread.

I just made a post about this, but in case you don't see it, go to Aldi!  They just started selling fresh gluten free bread that is just amazing. No toasting, doesn't fall apart, dare I say a gluten-eater wouldn't know the difference?  I actually find it much better than the average grocery store sandwich bread.  I tried the whole grain but they also have a plain white.

      I have found that in addition to gluten, I am sensitive to inulin/chicory root fiber. I wondered why I had gastrointestinal symptoms after drinking a Chobani yogurt drink - much like being glutened. Happened at least twice before I figured out that it was that chicory root fiber additive. I do not react to ordinary dairy, yogurt, etc.  For the holidays, I will only be baking gluten-free treats. I got rid of all gluten-containing flours, mixes and pastas in my kitchen. Much easier to avoid cross-contamination that way!

      It's great to hear that your gluten-free journey has been going well overall, and it's smart to be a detective when a reaction occurs. Distinguishing between a gluten cross-contamination issue and a reaction to high fiber can be tricky, as symptoms can sometimes overlap. The sudden, intense, food poisoning-like hour you experienced does sound more consistent with a specific intolerance or contamination, as a high-fiber reaction typically involves more digestive discomfort like bloating or gas that lasts longer. Since the protein bar was the only new variable, it’s a strong suspect; it's worth checking if it contains ingredients like sugar alcohols (e.g., maltitol, sorbitol) or certain fibers (inulin/chicory root) that are notorious for causing acute digestive upset, even in gluten-free products. For your holiday baking, your plan is solid: bake the gluten-free items first, use entirely separate utensils and pans (not just washed), and consider color-coding tools to avoid mix-ups. Additionally, store your gluten-free flours and ingredients well away from any airborne wheat flour, which can stay in the air for hours and settle on surfaces. Keep listening to your body and introducing new packaged foods one at a time—it’s the best way to navigate and pinpoint triggers on your journey.
