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.

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @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 ...

      @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!
