1.bread Machines 2.mixers 3. Bun Pans?

Hi,

I used to be on this list when I first discovered our family "celiac" problem, that was in 2000. I have baked bread in my AMBIH70 machine for years now. However, my Bob's Red Mill bread mix seems to rise too high and falls apart if you use it for a sandwich. With a senior son in high school who has to eat gluten free "bread" is a big deal here now. Last year we muddled through with mom's falling apart bread, this year I am relooking at everything and would love your advise. Our son began asking for buns. I bought the french buns by Gillians that are frozen from Whole Foods and he says they are ok, but...very dry. He can't have the frozen gluten free breads from Wh Foods, because he is allergic to dairy and they have milk in them. I made hamburger buns on Saturday and he said Mom, this is it, just don't make them so tall. I put my bread machine away and am now reverting back to mixing and baking. Does anyone have a bread pan to suggest for me? :D

Mixing....I have an old Sunbeam stand mixer that "eats" my gluten free dough as it moves up the beaters into the motor every time! I did a little research yesterday to find that KitchenAids don't do that so ordered one with a "big" bowl to mix several loaves at a time. Our daughter has a zoruji (sp?) bread machine so I can use that anytime I want. However, I am wondering if there is also a cheaper one that I might get that actually has a gluten free setting so that "if" I can find a good scratch recipe (or even mix) again (used to have one) that will actually hold together for an 18 year old boy's school lunches, I can have one that is mine. Since I just ordered the mixer I don't want to do a bread machine too. Any suggestions? :)

And, one more question: I want to make homemade hamburger and hot dog buns. We have already tried the frozen kind, but he says "mom, they just aren't the same". I find pans for them on the internet, but they are aluminum. We have alzheimers in our family and we stay away from it. Does anyone know of any stainless steel ones? Or has anyone actually used the english muffin rings with success? They are only about 3/4" tall and I was wondering if the batter spilled over the edges? :rolleyes:

I would appreciate any advice you have for my

1. Bread Pan?

2. Recipe?

3. Bread Machine.

4. Hamburger/hot dog bun pans "not" aluminum?

5. Muffin Ring Experience?

Its good to be back with others that understand! Thanks, Pilgrim

Enjoy Life makes a good sandwich bread if you want to buy it.

I make the bread from Annalise Roberts cookbook and it does fall apart pretty easy but it is very good.

I have the Bosch Universal system and use the bread hooks for mixing the bread batter.

5. Muffin Ring Experience?

I have tried several things to form hamburger buns. Recently I have hit on something that really worked well...

At Williams-Sonoma I found some mini Springform pans. (Reasonably priced about $5 each) They are about the size of large store-bought hamburger buns. I've made buns with them a couple of times now with Chebe mixes. I have left the base in the bottom of the pan and have removed the base and cooked directly on the baking sheet using the ring just for the shape. These mini springform pans work great for hamburger buns either way!

I look forward to hearing ideas for hotdogs buns, because I haven't solved that one yet.

I use the pans from Chicago Cutery, hot dog & hambuger pans. I love the bread mix from Anna's. You can find it & info at "gluten Evolution" her site. I have made dozens of loaves of bread & buns with her mix. Love that girl!!!

welcome back

Also thanks for the idea of using the mini springform pans. good idea.

:) Hi --I hope these ideas help-

For a good bun substitute that is bought ready-made, I use the English muffins by George-they are frozen. I split them, smoosh them down a little and toast them and they are really good for a burger or sandwich.

For bun pans, we had a thread about that-I don't know what to do to link it, but it is on page 31 (of this baking and cooking topic) There are a couple of great ideas on there. Also, for pans try Open Original Shared Link -that was recommended not too long ago. Good luck!

The King Arthur Flour catalog has lots of good quality steel pans for things like hamburger and hot dog buns. It's torture to read that catalog because of all the goodies we can't have, but I love it anyway - it's like celiac porn :lol: . I'm sure they have a website.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      If lectins were my problem, I would react to wheat germ (the highest source of wheat lectins) and beans. I don't. I only react to bread and pasta, which are the highest sources of gluten. Therefore, my issue is wheat-specific (Gluten/ATIs), not a general lectin issue.   I have eaten a supposedly high lectin diet (I say supposedly because lectin content in these foods is greatly reduced by proper cooking and I eat very few of those foods raw, and even then, rarely!!) for years. My health has improved greatly on my whole foods plant forward diet. I have asked all my drs and a registered dietician about my diet, asked if eating such a high amnt of fiber might interfere with the digestion of any other nutrients and the answer has always been NO.     while doing the gluten challenge I did not eat ANY wheat germ (since it doesn't have hardly any gluten, and I was too sick from the bread and pasta to want to eat much anyway) I will NOT put that poison in my body again. That was a horrific experience and if this is what most celiac patients have to deal with, I am very sorry for them I don't care if I have celiac or NCGS I won't intentionally cause myself that much pain and suffering it's not worth it.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
