Pamela's Bread Mix

I just bought a bread machine, and I also just bought a nice bag of Pamela's baking/bread mix :) I was wondering if anyone has used her bread mix before, and if you guys have any recipes?

I was also wondering if anyone has ever replaced oil with applesauce in a bread recipe. I'm thinking of doing this, but I don't know how much applesauce to use in place up 1/4 cup oil.

Thanks everyone! :)

Pamela's bread mix is our absolute favorite. It's delicious as is and we've also added cinnamon and raisins to it and it's delicous that way, too. I've never tried to substitute the oil but I'd think that 1/4 cup of oil would equal 1/4 cup of applesauce.

I'm not sure which of these you've got, but I'll tell you what my family thinks of both of them.

If you're talking about "Pamela's Wheat-Free Bread Mix", we go through at least two loaves of it a week. Even my non-gluten-free husband eats it. I've even made hamburger buns out of it before.

If you're talking about "Pamela's Ultimate Baking and Pancake Mix" we make pancakes out of it about once a week.

We love Pamela's Wheat Free bread mix too. It's the best I have tried, as far as mixes go.

It took me a couple of tries to get it right with my Breadman... The gluten-free setting didn't work out, and so I sent an email to Pamela's and they responded quickly with what I needed to do and even offered to send me a new bread mix to make up for the first one that didn't turn out right...

but it was still good! :P

Enjoy!

I was reading one of my recipes and they just sub. 1/4 of unsweetened applesauce for 1/4 of oil, so I assume that for your bread recipe you can do the same thing.

This is the one I use the most also. The rolls are very good. The recipe is on the bag. Even my daughter's gluten-eating friends like the rolls.

Thanks for your replies everyone! I ended up using the "egg free" recipe on the bag, and substituting the oil for 1/4 cup applesauce. It was my very first attempt at the bread machine and bread in general, so Im really excited to go test it out for breakfast! I'll let you all know how it goes.

What else do you guys make with that bread mix? Does anyone make muffins, hamurger buns? Got any recipes?

I'm totally open to ANY bread machine recipes because now that i've got it, im so excited to use it :)

IT DIDNT WORK :(

It came out too doughy and not cooked all the way through :( It smelled so good though...what torture :( ugh.

Any suggestions or advice? I put it in the bread machine and it was in there for 2 hours and 15 minutes on the white bread setting I believe...

how dissapointing. I was so excited about the idea of possibly having toast...or a SANDWICH!

Where do you buy Pamela's? I know of her chocolate chip cookies but I am not sure if we have seen the bread mix.

We were dx'd last spring and summer so we went and bought the Cuisanart breadmaker - it actually says for gluten free and low carb baking on the box. I used the gluten-free pantry frenchbread/pizza mix and followed the breadmaker instructions and it was great. It tasted like english muffin bread.

Good luck!!

I'm not sure what went wrong. We have a Zojirushi bread machine (and love it) and use the Pamela's bread mix without any problems. The only thing I can think of is that the setting we use takes 3 hours and 20 minutes to make a loaf of bread, which is about an hour longer than the setting you used. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Which setting do you use to make Pamela's mix in the Zo? I'm about to purchase some of these mixes from Amazon (a great price -- 6 for about $20)? I've used the quick wheat setting in the Zo for other mixes -- have you ever used this setting (about 2 hours plus) for the Pamela's mix? Thanks.

      @knitty kitty For me, the flushing lasts about 10 hours and not just 60-90 minutes after consuming the vitamins. I am 10-days into taking this already. My urine is neon colored around the clock and I drink between 1/2 to 3/4 of a gallon of water per day. I'll stick with 2 a day for now, but am honestly quite hesitant to do so. I am curious, where...

      Oh, dear, the niacin flush! I've heard repeatedly that the worse the flush, the more your body needs the niacin. If you stick with it, the flushing will not be as bad in a few days. Another way to correct low Niacin level is to take 100 mg of Niacin (nicotinic acid, the flushing kind) every three hours for several days. I've done this myself, and...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      @HectorConvector, Step off the gas. I'm in the U. S. That was what I remember my doctor telling me thirty years ago. Things may have changed since then. If I've "misremembered," I apologize. I'm human. Things are different on the other side of the pond. Here we go by mg/dl. The smaller incremental changes are more noticeable using mg/dl....

      @Known1, Search for "niacin flush fades the longer you use it" and "Niacin flush worse if deficient".   It takes a couple to three weeks for the body to adjust and you're at that point now, so things should improve. Riboflavin makes the neon color, which glows under black light.  If not absorbed, excreted.  Absorption of riboflavin will improve as the body starts healing the intestinal lining and villi grow back.   You could skip the multivitamin instead.

      The conversion factor for mg/dl and mmol/L is 18. So 5 = 90, 7 = 126, and so on. In the US, blood sugar regulations now are the same as what we use in the UK except for this difference in units. In terms of how they compare in the past, the numbers today that I quoted are stricter than they used to be. Blood sugar numbers for +1 and +2 hour postprandial are measured from the beginning of a meal in these official numbers. In regards to the thiamin supplement I have: it says it is thiamine mononitrate. I had not until now been aware there were different types (it seems I find that is the case with everything, including the magnesium I take!) and this one I have is the only one available in my local stores. I know it makes my pee smell strong when I take it which would seem to indicate my body is absorbing enough that the remainder gets ejected, but I could be wrong. Of course, I'm willing to try anything reasonable to correct this long standing condition, whatever it might be so I will try and get thiamin hydrochloride. Back on the note of diabetes (potentially) I haven't had the blood test for a while and I did notice ingrown toenail type infections a few times in the last 3 years that kept coming back. I heard that diabetes caused high urination. But eating sugar and elevated blood sugar causes the opposite in me. If I eat a lot of sugar I retain water, like big time. If I ate a bunch o sugar in the afternoon say, I can produce little enough urine that I can go over 12 hours and have nowhere near enough urine to need to void in that time or longer which seems abnormal.

Hang tight, you'll be okay!

      @HectorConvector, Step off the gas. I'm in the U. S.  That was what I remember my doctor telling me thirty years ago.  Things may have changed since then.  If I've "misremembered," I apologize.  I'm human.  Things are different on the other side of the pond.  Here we go by mg/dl.  The smaller incremental changes are more noticeable using mg/dl.   Also, I adopted a Ketogenic diet.  Ketogenic diets don't spike blood glucose as much, and therefore return to fasting levels sooner.  My own experience is my postprandial blood glucose level returned to fasting levels an hour after the end of a meal on a Ketogenic diet.  I was asking if the thiamine you take is thiamine hydrochloride or Benfotiamine or Thiamine TTFD.  Thiamine Mononitrate is not well absorbed nor utilized by the body.  I learned that amounts larger than 100 mgs of thiamine hydrochloride needs to be taken in thiamine deficiency.   500mgs thiamine hydrochloride is recommended by the World Health Organization for several days and look for health improvement.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in higher amounts. When thiamine is taken in high doses, there's a big change in energy availability, especially in the brain, where pain is registered.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine results in an eighty percent increase in brain function.  Thiamine has analgesic properties.   I learned about high dose thiamine from Dr. Derek Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs through their website hormonesmatter.com.  I have taken high dose thiamine to correct my deficiency about fifteen years ago.  I could feel myself dying, I was so sick and in pain.  I was grasping at straws.  No harm, no foul, just to try it and see, right?  I tried it and that made all the difference.  High dose thiamine made astounding health improvements within a very short period of time for me.  I wonder if 500 mg of thiamine hydrochloride would have the same effect on you.
