Food For Life Millet Bread

I tried this bread for the first time today and I was not impressed. The bread can be used as a hand weight since it is so heavy frozen. From everything I have read, you keep it frozen and then have to toast it before eating. I toasted it but it never softened and it was so tough to eat even with Wild Oats concorde grape fruit spread. Suggestions please as I would just like to have a piece of bread once in a while!

From what many say, it seems the best breads are homemade. I have used millet flour in breads too, and it works well. So it's obviously not the flour which is the problem. Also, homemade bread is considerably cheaper than buying it.

If you want to make your own, but need a good recipe, perhaps this one will do:

I haven't tried it, but the reviews are positive.

I've never purchased gluten-free bread, so I can't make any suggestions on that.

When my dd first went gluten-free, we started out with the FFL Millet Bread. Then we started experimenting with homemade bread. Currently, my dd's favorite bread recipe is from this website:

If you decide to try it, PM me and I'll give you the little "hints" that I've found to get it to work. The pic in my avatar is how it comes out for me.

Wow, that looks just like Country White Bread!

I'd love it if you could post your tips here--perhaps those tips would apply to all gluten-free bread baking?

      And the fact is, no two celiacs will necessarily respond the same to gluten exposure. Some are "silent" celiacs and don't experience obvious symptoms. But that doesn't mean no harm is being done to their gut. It just means it is subclinical.

      Thank you, Trents.  I appreciate your helpful and friendly reply. It seems more likely to be a bug.  It has been a pretty severe bought. I feel that I don’t have enough experience to know what signs my little one shows after exposure to gluten.

      Hannah24, be aware that if you are on a gluten free diet, you will invalidate any further testing for celiac disease (except genetics) and would need to go back to eating significant amounts of gluten for weeks or months to qualify for valid testing.

      Hello, @Hannah24 Have you had a DNA test done?  Celiac Disease is genetic.  You must have at least one gene to develop celiac disease.  You don't have to be consuming gluten for a genetic test.   Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives.  Some lucky people are seronegative, but still have celiac disease.  Peripheral neuropathy, tingling in hands and feet are symptoms of vitamin deficiencies.  Vitamin C, Thiamine B1, Niacin B3, Pyridoxine B6, and Cobalamine B12 can each cause peripheral neuropathy.  These same vitamins are needed to produce blood cells.  Most undiagnosed Celiacs suffer from nutritional deficiencies. The DNA test would be helpful.

      We do hear of cases of remission but they generally eventually revert back. I wouldn't push your luck.
