I do not know how to cook, but a friend of mine has a bread maker that was only used once and she is giving it to me. What I need to know is a recipe for just plain gluten free wheat free bread. There may be one on the website, but I have not found one. If someone could help me out I would appreciate it. Also I might need more than than just the ingredients. I'm not sure since I don't know how to cook. Thanks for your help.

I tried (my first time) Bob's Red Mill gluten-free bread mix in my bread maker and it turned out really well. It's a little different than regular bread because it requires quite a few eggs but it was pretty easy all in all.

I know this isn't exactly a recipe but you might consider it for a first time thing - those flour mixes that go into a gluten-free bread recipe can be a bit daunting in my opinion. Good luck. :)

Could you tell me where you got the Bob's Red Mill gluten free bread mix? Thanks.

my homemade flax bread on the site below is the one that all my gluten-eating friends and family says tastes the most like the real thing. it's easy, and you don;t have to toast it, it doesn't crumble, and it doesn't need a bread machine.

Can you bake it in a bread maker? Thanks!

I don't think I would use a bread maker that has previously been used for baking regular gluten containing bread. There is a risk of CC. I don't own one, but can you really clean it sufficiently to eliminate the risk of CC. I would be interested to hear others ideas concerning this. I am really a freak about CC. I hate to get glutened without knowing. I would rather do something purposeful if I have to suffer.

my bread machine was used for regular gluten containing bread before... I just cleaned it VERY thoroughly... the pan is completely immersible in water so I soaked it thoroughly and then every surface on the inside and outside of the bread machine I went over it with q-tips and a toothbrush and throroughly scrubbed it. I've been using it for gluten-free breads for 3 1/2 years with no problems and I'm very sensitive.

In fact, I just put a mix in just a few minutes ago. I use the Pamela's wheat free bread mix. It used to say "Amazing" on the bag but for some reason they changed that, it's still amazing. I substitute a 1/2 cup of the water for 1/2 cup milk and it makes it richer and more moist. The Pamela's is really easy in my bread machine, it has a setting for rapid cycle which means it only kneads the bread once which for gluten-free breads you don't need extra kneading... I also make sure to scrape the sides of the pan with a nylon spatula when it's first mixing and if it looks dry I add more water until it's not dry looking...

I got it at Fred Meyer's which is kind of a west coast Kroger's. You can order it from their website, though. I tried their Biscuit mix and made Scones out of it (orange cranberry) and they turned out suprisingly well. It was a bit hard to handle the dough because it was kinda gooey (the xanthan gum, I guess) but I chilled it a bit and that made it much easier to handle.

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting in the mouth corners, and dry mouth to name but some. The link below is for paediatric dentistry but it applies to adults too.  Have you had follow up for you coeliac disease to check that your anti-tTG2 antibodies levels have come down? Are you certain that you not being exposed to significant amounts of gluten? Are you taking a PPI for your Barrett's oesophagus? Signs of changes to the tongue can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, particularly iron, B12 and B9 (folate) deficiency. I would make sure to take a good quality multivitamin every day and make sure to take it with vitamin C containing food - orange juice, broccoli, cabbage etc.  Sebaceous hyperplasia is common in older men and I can't find a link to coeliac disease.   Russ.   Oral Manifestations in Pediatric Patients with Coeliac Disease – A Review Article

      Hi @Charlie1946 You are very welcome.   I agree wholeheartedly with @knitty kitty:  "I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants." I had a type of tingling/sometimes pain in my cheek about 2 years after my diagnosis.  I noticed it after standing in cold wind, affecting  me after the event - for example, the evening after standing outside, I would feel either tingling or stabbing pain in my cheek.   I found using a neck roll seemed to help, reducing caffeine, making sure I was well-hydrated, taking B12 and C vitamins and magnesium.  Then when the lockdowns came and I was using a facemask I realised that this pain was almost entirely eliminated by keeping the wind off my face.  I think looking back I was suffering from a type of nerve pain/damage.  At the time read that coeliacs can suffer from nerve damage caused by nutritional deficiencies and inflammation, and there was hope that as bodywide healing took place, following the adoption of a strict gluten free diet and addressing nutritional deficiencies, recovery was possible.   During this time, I used to spend a lot of time outdoors with my then young children, who would be playing in the park, and I'd be sheltering my face with an upturned coat collar, trying to stay our of the cold wind!  It was during this time a number of people with a condition called Trigeminal Neuralgia came up to me and introduced themselves, which looking back was nothing short of miraculous as I live in a pretty sparsely populated rural community and it is quite a rare condition.   I met a number of non-coeliacs who had suffered with this issue  and all bar one found relief in taking medication like amitriptyline which are type of tricyclic anti-depressant.   They were not depressed, here their doctors had prescribed the drugs as pain killers to address nerve pain, hence I mention here.  Nerve pain caused by shingles is often treated with this type of medication in the UK too, so it is definitely worth bearing in mind if standard pain killers like aspirin aren't working.
