Favorite Whole Grain Bread?

[hathor]

I've only been gluten-free for a week. What I miss the most is a nice nutty-flavored, whole grain bread. Any good recipes or loafs I can order? I bought the high fiber, gluten-free bread Whole Foods had and thought it was awful -- dry and tasteless.

I cannot speak from experience, but it's been mentioned here that Bob's REd Mill Whole grain bread mix (make sure it's the gluten free one) is really good.

I have a few others I want to try before that one, but you might lik eit - you'd have to bake it yourself, but I think it wouldn't be difficult - most of them are mix together, pour in pan, let rise, bake and eat kinda recipes.

Check out this thread for the very best bread ever. It has flax seed meal in it, and some bean flour, so it has fiber, nutrition, and what's most important - FLAVOR! Tastes just like whole wheat bread.

Hi & Welcome

I agree try the bread recipe. It is very easy & tasty to boot. It stays nice without toasting. But if & when you buy gluten-free breads most of them have to be heated or toasted to regain the soft texture.. I remember the first loaf of gluten-free bread I bought!!!! I didn't know it should be toasted or heated .............I thought to myself I could kill someone with this hard,dry brick.

I do use the Whole Foods sandwich bread for grilled cheese when I don't have any mock rye on hand.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll definitely try them after I get the ingredients.

I was doing some internet searching last night and ran across these two that looked interesting:

Has anyone tried them or heard from someone who has?

mamaw, I've definitely learned the toasting thing for myself. Last night I tried the bread I have and just made a sandwich. It was like eating sawdust I couldn't stomach more than two bites and then tossed the slices in the garbage. The rest of the loaf almost went the same place.

I was accustomed to eating whole grain bread plain. Obviously, at least with the store-bought stuff I have, it has to be not just toasted, but augmented with something flavorful and moist.
