I'd like to give gluten-free breadmaking a try. Any recommendations on a breadmaker?

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick response! One of my colleagues has a breadman pro....and also loves it. Also appreciate the info on the frozen stuff. I'll stay away from it.

Do you HAVE to use a bread machine to get a decent loaf of bread? Do you have to buy gluten free pantry's mix? Isn't there a way we can get the gluten free pantry's recipe? I'll break down and buy a bread machine if I have to, but why can't it be done in the oven with a loaf pan?

I have a Zojirushi bread machine and just adore it. They're a bit pricier, but worth it to me. I can get a decent loaf of bread (usually use gluten-free pantry or Manna from Anna, but have done "homemade"). It's just so much easier to make bread this way. No messing with mixing bowls, big heavy mixers, etc. Maybe I'm just lazy, but if it weren't for my bread machine, I don't think I would ever eat bread. I just don't have the time to do it any other way.

Both Pamela's and Gluten-Free Pantry's bread mixes have instructions for bread machine and a regular oven. I just use the mix and bake in a loaf pan. My first loaf started to brown too much and I took it out early - big mistake. After that I started putting a tent of foil over the bread with about 10 minutes to go and haven't had a problem.

I also have a Zo. I've had it for over 2 years, and use it several times per week (I bake for my Mom, also). It is a fantastic, reliable machine. I use various gluten-free flours, but not packaged mixes (I do think it is less expensive to use the individual flours). I have used the FANTASTIC bread recipe from Lorka Open Original Shared Link, and it turns out beautifully.

It is certainly possible to make bread with a mixer, and bake it in the oven. But I like the convenience of the bread maker - I don't have to pay attention to when it's finished rising, when to preheat the oven, etc. I just put in the ingredients, and come back an hour and a half later when it beeps. (I'm not lazy, just busy... <_< )

Here! Here! I agree....not lazy, just busy. I recently picked up one of the books by Bette Hagman, The Gluten-free Gourmet. It has several recipes I'd like to try.

Thanks for the recommendations girls!

I heard that the gluten-free bread tastes better without using a bread machine.

I also have the Zo, and just used it for the 1st time last week. I made the Manna from Anna bread. It was so delicious!! I've been having grilled cheese and tomato soup all week long. In fact I just finished another grilled cheese. You could also just eat this bread without toasting if you wanted to make a sandwich like a all those gluten eating people ;)

I was slightly intimidated to use it at first (ok awhile, I got it about 2 months ago), but DH finally convinced me to give it a try. I couldn't believe how easy it was to use and how great the bread was. I've never tried any other bread machine so I have no comparison, but I would definately reccomend this one (and the Manna Breads). You only need the bread machine for the regular sandwich breads but I made her Pumpkin and Banana breads for Thanksgiving this past year and they were sooooooo delicious! Everyone loved them.

Heck with that, I just made a batch of Bread form Anna in my bread machine (Oster Express Bake) and I will happily admit to being lazy :)

Besides the bread always seems to come out better from the bread maker....

      Chances of being coeliac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Welcome @JoJo0611. That is a valid question.  Unfortunately the short answer is slim to none.  Be proactive, when the diagnosis process is completed, start GFD.  Remember also that the western diet is deficient in many nutrients that governments require fortification.  Read the side of a breakfast cereal box. Anti-tTG antibodies has superseded older serological tests It has a strong sensitivity (99%) and specificity (>90%) for identifying celiac disease. A list of symptoms linked to Celiac is below.  No one seems to be tracking it, but I suspect that those with elevated ttg, but not diagnosed with Celiac Disease, are diagnosed with celiac disease many years later or just die, misdiagnosed.  Wheat has a very significant role in our economy and society.  And it is addictive.  Anti-tTG antibodies can be elevated without gluten intake in cases of other autoimmune diseases, certain infections, and inflammatory conditions like inflammatory bowel disease. Transient increases have been observed during infections such as Epstein-Barr virus.Some autoimmune disorders including hepatitis and biliary cirrhosis, gall bladder disease. Then, at 65 they are told you have Ciliac Disease. Milk protein has been connected to elevated levels.   Except for Ireland and New Zealand where almost all dairy cows are grass fed, commercial diaries feed cows TMR Total Mixed Rations which include hay, silage, grains and concentrate, protein supplements, vitamins and minerals, byproducts and feed additives. Up to 80% of their diet is food that cannot be eaten by humans. Byproducts of cotton seeds, citrus pulp, brewer’s grains (wheat and barley, rye, malt, candy waste, bakery waste. The wheat, barley and rye become molecules in the milk protein and can trigger tTg Iga in persons suseptible to Celiac. I can drink Grass fed milk, it tastes better, like the milk the milkman delivered in the 50's.  If I drink commercial or Organic milk at bedtime I wake with indigestion.

      Dedicated gluten-free Restaurants in East Bay (near San Francisco):

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      I strongly recommend 2 dedicated gluten free (gluten-free) restaurants in my area (East Bay of San Francisco Bay Area) (2025) -- Life is Sweet Bakery and Café in Danville. I've been a few times with friends and tried multiple entrees and salads. All very good and worth having again. I've also tried a number of their bakery goods. All extremely good (not just "good for gluten-free"). https://lifeissweetbakeryandcafe.com/ -- Kitara Kitchen in Albany (they have additional locations). I've been once and had the "Buritto Bowl". Six individual items plus a sauce. Outstanding. Not just "for gluten-free", but outstanding in its own right. Vibrant flavors, great textures. I can't wait to go back. https://www.kitava.com/location/kitava-albany/

      I'm 67 and have been celiac for 17yrs. I had cataract surgery and they put a gluten lens in my eye. Through a lot of research, I found out about MMA acrylic...it contains gluten. It took 6 months for me to find a DR that would remove it and replace it with a gluten-free lens . I have lost some vision in that eye because of it . I also go to a prosthodontist instead of a regular dentist because they are specialized. He has made me a night guard and a few retainers with no issues... where my regular dentist didn't care. I have really bad reactions to gluten and I'm extremely sensitive, even to CC. I have done so much research on gluten-free issues because of these Drs that just don't care. Gluten is in almost everything shampoo, lotion, food, spices, acrylic, medication even communion wafers! All of my Drs know and believe me I remind them often.... welcome to my world!

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.
