I just made a loaf from the Pamelas bread mix. It is the best I have had yet. The bread was moist like real bread and it wasn't crumbly or grainy. For the first time, my sandwich held together.

Did you use the Amazing Bread Mix? I've tried the mix a couple of times and we really like it as well. My dd is egg free and they have directions on the bag for the egg free version. I used Ener-G Egg Replacer in my bread. I found that I had to let is rise atleast double the amount of time that the bag suggested. Since I'm not using egg, I've found that using a muffin tin, half dome pan or mini loaf pan works great. I made some rolls with it last week and we used them as hamburger buns. YUM! :)

When you made the hamburger buns, did you change the recipe any? Did you use a bun pan or just shaped them by hand? I would like to try making hamburger buns, they sound great.

Just thought I'd jump in here and add a little something; I've never found that shaping buns by hand works well as our doughs are too soft and sticky and want to spread: Try using any of these methods:

1-English Muffin Rings available at most kitchen stores. You just place the rings on a sheet and spray; and then spoon the dough into the rings.

2-You can make your own rings out of heavy duty aluminum foil and taping together.

3-Use miniature foil pie tins; and reshape them over the bottom of a quart size jar of mayo (or similar) until they become bun shape. You may want to wear gloves so as not to scrape your hands. (this is my favorite and you can put these through dishwasher and reuse)

4-You can also purchase a bun pan at specialty stores, but they are usually quite expensive.

Hope this helps.

Kay, these are great ideas.

When you made the hamburger buns, did you change the recipe any?

I did the recipe just as it is on the bag. My aunt likes to do cinnamon and raisin bread using the dough.

I have a half dome silicon pan that works well for my buns. I make sure not to pack the dough down in them so their nice and airy. I take water on a knife and smooth the top of the dough. The buns don't look eactly like hamburger buns...more like rolls. I usually invert them and the bottom becomes the top. I slice them and put the burgers, roast beef/ meat in the center. I've also used silicon muffin pan for rolls. They taste the same but look more like muffins. I've seem the hamburger pans at the kitchen outlets and thought about springing for one but haven't yet. I the time, I didn't had a good recipe. I've also used Applegate Organic Beef Hotdogs and have thought about trying hotdog buns.

When you make the buns? How long do you bake them? At what temperature?

I bake my rolls at 325 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes or until lightly browned on top. But I'm using a convection oven. If I were baking in a regular oven I would bake them at 350 degrees for 25 - 30 minutes. I have noticed they continue to bake & set up some as they cool. I thought they might be a little gooey but as they cooled they were perfect. Sometimes I'll cover them with foil if they look like they're getting too brown on top.

We took a day trip yesterday and I made the buns and topped them with roast beef, they were so good! My dd at the rest of the buns this morning with Bionature Blackberry Fruit Spread. Yum! :D

      Ibuprofen

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
