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....

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
