It's the best!

Okay, I have ALL the ingredients.

When I'm finished my free sample of Kinnickkinick Whole Grain bread, I'm going to make this!

Would I be able to split it into 2 1 lb loaves - or does it only make 1 1 lb loaf?

Thanks

:o Holy Cow! This is wonderful bread. THANK YOU!!!! I was diagnosed in 1985. Life with bread has never been this good. My husband and I just finished our first slices....now we're trying to remember what sandwiches are. Hmmmm....what does one put in a sandwich anyway? Bye the way, we made our bread in the new Cuisinart Convection breadmaker with the gluten-free cycle. The crust was amazing (we chose medium crust. For the gluten-free flour we used the Bette Hagman formula for gluten-free Flour Mix. We won't get a chance to worry about storage yet. Thanks again Laurie (Lorka).

Sandra, Could you please tell me the exact recipe that you used for your bread maker? I made mine it was pretty good, but a little heavy. Also, I don't have a gluten free setting. I used white bread setting, and it took 2:40 hours. Did you put in wet first, and then dry? Or did you premix? Any suggestions would be great thanks, Chris

I makes 1 loaf so I would say 1 lb. It fits in a 9 x 5 or 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 pan. I think someone has used an 11 x 4 also.

This really does sound amazing.....after making several bookends and wasting ingrediants on a really bad tasting bread this is a releif the question still is making this in a bread machine???....i really enjoy the conveinance working 12hr shifts...i have a really good recipe for gluten-free flour mix and a ( feather light flour mix havent gotten far enough in my reading to find a recipe to use it)..

gluten-free Flour Mix

white or brown rice flour 6 cups

Potato starch 2 cups

Tapioca Flour 1 cup

I have doubled and tripled both recipes for conveincance

Feather Light Flour Mix

White or brown rice flour 3 cups

Tapioca Flour 3 cups

Cornstarch 3 cups

Potato Flour 3 Tlbsp

The gluten-free flour mix can be used to convert old recipes by substituting gluten-free mix for all purpose flour

That was me with the 11 x 4. I figured for small 7 year old hands, the 9 x 5 bread was too "wide" and we'd be making 1/2 sandwiches all the time. This way, we get a nice sized loaf, not too wide and it lasts him a couple of weeks unless he's having toast everyday as well. :)

It doesn't turn out with a rounded top but none of my homemade breads have. They still taste good though.

I learned a trick for nicer bread tops. If you are not afraid of a little cooking spray.... First spread the top with a knife, then we cut 3 diagonal slits to help with even expansion. Then I spray the tops with cooking spray so that the loaves do not dry out during rising. I have found that the top is a bit nicer this way.

Hi!

Larry Mac - we count carbs by reading the labels of all the ingredients we're using (in our case just the carbs obviously) then figuring out the right ratio for each then adding them all together and dividing by the number of slices or rolls the batch makes. Obviously not a very exact science but since my daughter is a diabetic and we have to count carbs to know how much insulin to give her - this actually works. I think we're pretty close because her blood sugar has been fine after eating this bread - and she loves it!

On another note - I was thinking of starting a new thread with fun variations or recipes with Lorka's bread. Seems many peoply have adapted the recipe creatively. For example, our most recent was to remove the garfava flour and sub with almond flour this made for an extraordinarily delicious sweet smelling (although slightly chewy) loaf! Our other ingredients for the 1-1/4 cups of gluten-free were 1/2C. brown rice, 1/2C. Sorghum, 1/4 C. Tapioca.

Some favorite byproducts have been:

Bread crumbs

Croutons

French Toast

Egg in a whole (you know like a fried egg fried into a whole in the bread)

Fondue

Pizza Toast

As well as all the usuals: PB&J, Turkey Club, Fluff'n Nutters, Grilled Cheese, etc.

Anyone else have exceptionally good variations to the original recipe and or fun by products? Do share!

I subbed almond and coconut flour for the garfava and some of the starches. Came out with a nice flavour but a little heavy, and didn't rise that well though it could have been the yeast I used. You subbed almond flour in, how did you find your rise?

Would be easy to make cinnamon raisin bread with this recipe...mmmm!

Larry Mac - I'm happy to figure nutrient counts for you, if you like :) That goes for anyone.

Has anyone tried soy milk in this recipe? Can't do dairy, but I think I would prefer it with a liquid other than water...

Thanks!

Any way to make this bread yeast-free?

Ok, Laurie, I have to jump on the bandwagon here--YUM-O--as Rachel Ray would say! I did have the opposite experience as everyone else--made it in my bread machine and it's very short! Flavor, texture, color, everything else was perfect, it just didn't rise quite as much as some say theirs did. On the other hand, neither did it fall...

I used soy milk and mixed the wet ingredients and then remembered the milk should be warm. I stuck the whole bowl in the microwave for a minute on 50% power just to take the chill off.

Thank you, thank you!!

I have the Cusinart with the gluten free setting and I love it this recipe is great on here but I use a different one that is quite similar but it makes a taller loaf.. if you have any questions let me know!

Skinnyminny, could you please share your recipe? Does it hold together for a sandwhich? I loved Lorka's bread, I liked Bette Hagman's yeast free bread, but they both crumbled. Is it because I do it by hand? Would it hold together if done by machine? I love the flavor and texture of these breads, but I really want a sandwich. I'm still new to gluten-free, so real bread is a very recent memory for me. I just want to know if what I have now is as good as it gets.

i've got this bread rising in the oven also----can't wait to try it!!

Hi Katy,

Is this bread better than the mix from Breads from Anna? I am very happy with quality of Anna's bread, but I am always open to trying something that may be better.

We haven't had a problem with sandwiches crumbling with this recipe.

I make 3 loaves at a time with a mixer with the following ingredients.

2 3/4 c rice flour

1 c sorghum

I've been using tapioca as I'm out of potato starch but plan on going back to that when I run out of tapioca.

The other changes I've made are (again for the 3 loaves)

6 eggs (instead of 9)

I also use water, not milk

5 Tb sugar (instead of 6)

2 tsp salt (instead of 1 Tb)

I've omitted the vinegar.

Does anyone know what the vinegar does?

I believe the vinegar is to give you a longer shelf life. Well your bread any way, lol

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      By trents · Posted

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
