Just Bought A Breadmaker

I'm about to delve into the world of making my own gluten-free bread in my new breadmaker. I want to start using mixes- I need gluten-free (of course) dairy and legume free recipes or mixes. :D

How do Namaste, Pamela's or gluten-free Pantry mixes turn out in a breadmaker. I'm more interested in making focaccia like breads with onions, garlic, basil, sundried tomatoes etc?

Anyone have any recommendations to get started? I'm not quite ready to delve into buying all the individual flours :ph34r:

I haver heard that pamela's is great. I have a bread machine too, and I need to order some Pamela's. I have used gluten free pantry's french, and my family loves it. It doesn't taste like French bread to me...more like sourdough.

We love it. I also tried Lorka's recipe from here, and that was good too. :)

Hi Bev :D

I don't use a breadmaker for it, but The Gluten Free Pantry French Bread has a breadmaker recipe on the package.

I love this bread--as probably everyone knows by now :P , as I always recommend it. I think it would be very good with some of the add-ins you mentioned.

It also makes a good pizza crust. It's literally the only bread I can tolerate.

Have fun with your new toy :D

I make GFP favorite sandwich bread.. I dont know if it has dairy or what in it though, I just made it and the garbage already went out.. but we use it for grilled cheese, and it makes great breadcrumbs for the heels of the bread... yumm

Thank you for all the suggestions- I looked at Bread from anna but it's got a lot of legume flours like chickpea which I can' tolerate :( I heard it's awesome though!

My husband is the one who can't tolerate Gluten in our family, but I am the one doing the cooking. After getting mixed results (mostly bad) using our regular breadmaker, we went out and found one with that can be programmed for only one rise cycle, this feature lead to much better (and quicker) results! In my husband's opinion, the best gluten-free mix so far is The Gluten-Free Pantry's Favorite Sandwich Bread, hands down. He is not very picky, but he did not care for Bob's Redmill gluten-free bread or the GFP's French bread. His ulitmate favorite was GFP's Light Rye bread, but he has since been diagnosed with Chron's and can't have the seeds, the caraway taste really helped the overall taste of the bread, almost tasted like real rye bread. Hope this helps.

HI

I HAVE A BREAD MAKER.

WAS SUCH A BIG DEAL TO ME TO GET IT AND NOW................ :ph34r: AFRAID TO USE IT

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH ME??? I HAS ALL THESE INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO ''PREP'' IT AND IT WILL SMELL AND STINK OUT THE HOUSE LIKE IT'S BURNING UP...BUT NOT TOO WORRY IT SAYS.

I THE GFP FRENCH BREAD TOO AND IT WAS GOOD BUT.............I SNEEZE AFTER EATING IT WHEN DOING THE ROLLS BUT DOESN'T SEEM TO BOTHER IF TOASTED...

NOW WHAT KIND OF SENSE DOES THAT MAKE.

NO WONDER DR'S THINK WE'RE CRAZY.

BUT MY ALLERGIES ARE AWFUL NOW...

ANYWAY....NOT TO STEAL YOUR THREAD BEV..BUT YOU TOLD ME CLARITIN D 12 HAS LACTOSE OR DAIRY AND WONDERED IF THAT WAS IT.......JUST ADDING TO ALLERGIES..

WHAT DO YOU TAKE FOR SEASONAL ALLERGIES..OR DO YOU HAVE THEM?

HUGS

Darn power went out half way through for three hours (huge tree down) in the middle so I had to restart. I

JUDY-I don't have seasonal allergies BUT yes, Cl;aritin has dairy in it.

Pamela's is WONDERFUL in a bread machine. (I have a zojirushi). GFP is also good, but Pamela's is my preference. It's great with just water, but I usually add about 1/4 c Dari-Free & the balance water. I also have started adding about 1/4 cup flax meal (self ground from seeds) to the dry.

Good for you Bev! You'll love the ease of a bread machine. SO EASY. Toss in the liquid, then toss in the dry, hit start. 2 hours later .... voila!

To Pamela's I've also added shredded cheddar and 2-3 chopped, fresh jalapeno. YUMMMY!!!!

Lorka's bread works great in my machine, too. (If you do decide to venture)

For storing, I don't care for any of it by the next day unless I freeze it. The method that works best for me is:

  1. bake bread
  2. cool bread on wire rack
  3. slice bread
  4. wrap each slice individually in Glad press n seal
  5. Toss into ziplock
  6. toss into freezer

This take a little more effort on the front end but is SO worth it to us.

Our toaster has a defrost setting, and I use that to thaw for sandwiches, etc. (takes less than a minute) and works for taking sandwiches for lunch, etc.

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?
