Best gluten-free bread


gluten confused

Schar Baguette is really good!  My husband (not gluten-free) now prefers it over regular french bread.

I don't think any gluten-free bread will ever be as delicious as a fresh baguette out of the oven, but you never know. I have had a good Rudi's bread once or twice, and there is a gluten-free bakery here in DC that's pretty good (their biscuits are, at any rate). Other people swear by Grind Stone Bakery in California. Never been or ordered, myself.

I agree with those who counsel fattening up on fats rather than processed carbs right now, but whatever - do what works for you.

I have not tried Schar's, but the other national brands are all bad to horrible. Find a local gluten-free bakery if you can. Or try Omaha's bakery, Stick and Stone. They ship nationally, and have a wide variety of products, including at least a dozen breads, cookies, three kinds of crackers, pizza dough, cinnamon rolls and much more. Their products changed my life.

First, and most important, I purchase most of my "raw" ingredients from various sources. One of my favorite is " Honeyville.com" They have the Rice flours, Tapioca starch, Corn Starch, etc in 50 lbs. bags that makes my recipes work best. Just an example = Fine ground White Rice Flour in 50 Lbs. bag is $1.24 per pound!

The second item you need to make my gluten-free recipes is a 6 qt KitchenAid mixer with lift bowl or another brand of mixer with the Kitchenaid features. Please believe me, my bread recipes will not work any other way. You need the power at different speeds for up to 10 minutes of beating time to make the batters.

Over the next few weeks, I will attempt to write down my recipes, with specific methods/instructions for your success. What recipes would you like first?

Thank you. We have a large ka mixer so I'm all set.

bread recipes would be most appreciated. My husband is the baker so I'll relay the info to him.

i am blessed to be close enough to a gluten-free bakery to buy incredible breads and desserts.   They do ship within the US, and for the summer, shipping was free for purchases of around $25 to $30.  Most of their products are gluten and dairy free.  They have a chocolate bumpy cake that no one believes is gluten-free and DF. Their bread is usually light and airy.  Weather significantly impacts bread baking, so sometimes the loaves are a little denser ... which for me requires toasting.    Bread is no more than you'd pay for some of the manufactured brands mentioned here.  I have no affiliation with this company, just a happy customer.

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
