Thanks! That's a great collection. How does Bette Hagman's French Bread compare to the real thing? I've been wanting to experiment to find a good substitute.

I've only made the french bread once, and it was a bit tricky (the dough is very sticky and hard to handle), but we liked it. My gluten eating family thought it was great.

Thanks for the collection -- I can't wait to try the jelly roll recipe!

I had great success recently using the gluten-free Pantry French Bread mix and a french bread pan. I didn't realize the french bread pan would make such a difference in the crust! It was crunchy-hard and made great bruschetta. I've made the same mix in a regular pan and it just turned out like regular bread. But the only place I found the french bread pan was Williams Sonoma.

Anyone know where you can find hot dog shaped mini pans?

I didn't even know they made french bread pans. That would certianly make things easier, especially since this particular dough is so sticky. I've heard the gluten-free Pantry one is good, but at $5.75/box, I haven't yet tried it.

Don't know about the hot dog pans, but there is a thread somewhere here about someone just making hot dog rolls.

Thanks for all the great recipes! Some of them look really yummy!

I found these little dishes the other day and I was wondering if they would work for hot dog buns. Open Original Shared Link . I have used a muffin top pan for hamburger buns, but I was thinking about getting some little round dishes like these for hamburger buns.

The only place I've found the pan is Williams Sonoma and I spray it with a non-stick spray even though it's a non-stick pan. gluten-free dough is too sticky to handle otherwise. Open Original Shared Link

A tip I picked up when Beth Hillson spoke at our local Celiac group was to make a "glove" by wraping one or both hands in plastic wrap and spray them with gluten-free cooking spray. Makes handling the dough so much easier.

Amazon sells the mix a little cheaper and a few months ago, I could buy 6 boxes for $20. I still can on the Favorite Sandwich Bread and if the order goes over $25, I don't pay shipping. I don't know why they don't offer the 6-pack on the French Bread anymore.

That's what I use for the foccacio with the gluten-free pantry bread mix. My dishes are round, but they're the perfect size for something like a hamburger bun. I don't know how they would work for hot dogs, though--do you think they're skinny enough?

Ooo... That's good to know. I tried the GFPantry French Bread mix before. I thought it was pretty good, but my husband doesn't like it. I've been meaning to experiment more, but just haven't.

I've been using the muffin top pan trick to make hamburger buns too, but it really is kind of a PITA so I don't make them as often as I should. Using the ceramic quiche pans is a great idea. I've seen them in all sorts of sizes.

I've been wondering about those french bread pans too. I wasn't sure if they'd hold the gooey gluten-free bread dough with the holes. Good to know they work okay.

If you get a french bread pan, you might want to give it another try. I couldn't believe how the pan changes the texture of the mix. In a loaf pan, it's nothing special.

I took some to work so I'd have some for a luncheon our group was having. A co-worker (not a Celiac) liked it so much that she asked me to make some for a dinner party she was having so she could make bruschetta out of it. One of her guests was Celiac and the rest of the guests didn't realize it was gluten-free bread until they saw the Celiac eating it.

One thing I did to make the crust harder and crustier was brush it with a beaten egg and sprinkle a heavy coating of seasame seeds on it before it went into the oven.

Has anyone tried one of the multi-grain mixes? I really miss pumpernickel!

The King Arthur Flour co. sells a quite variety of bakeware and used to sell those frenchbread pans. I imagine they still do.

They make French Bread pans without holes. The one I have doesn't have the holes. But I haven't tried making french bread yet. It is on my "to do" list!

I figured it was the small holes that helped make the crunchy crust on the bottom. I'd be curious to know if it's the holes or the rounded bottoms. Please let us know how it turns out.

      Low iron and vitamin d

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      A low tTG is great news, but it doesn’t always mean the small intestine has fully healed yet—iron and vitamin D absorption can lag behind for months or even years, especially in young children. Many kids need supplements for a period of time while the gut repairs itself, and that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be lifelong. Morning stomach pain is also commonly reported in celiac kids and can be related to slow healing, reflux, motility, or even low iron itself. It sounds like the supplements are clearly helping, which is reassuring, and ongoing monitoring with her doctor can help determine when (or if) doses can be reduced as absorption improves. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      Healthy Gluten Free Foods low sugar that you found?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      A lot of gluten-free packaged foods do rely on extra sugar, starches, or sodium to replace texture and flavor, so focusing on simpler options makes sense. Many people do better with naturally gluten-free proteins like eggs, plain yogurt, nuts, seeds, hummus, beans, and minimally processed protein bars with lower added sugar and higher fiber. Pairing those with whole foods can help you feel more “normal” without triggering symptoms. Subscription boxes can be hit or miss, so checking labels carefully and using them as an occasional supplement—rather than a staple—often works best.

      Accuracy of testing concerns

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @McKinleyWY, For a genetic test, you don't have to eat gluten, but this will only show if you have the genes necessary for the development of Celiac disease.  It will not show if you have active Celiac disease.   Eating gluten stimulates the production of antibodies against gluten which mistakenly attack our own bodies.  The antibodies are produced in the small intestines.  Three grams of gluten are enough to make you feel sick and ramp up anti-gluten antibody production and inflammation for two years afterwards.  However, TEN grams of gluten or more per day for two weeks is required to stimulate anti-gluten antibodies' production enough so that the anti-gluten antibodies move out of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they can be measured in blood tests.  This level of anti-gluten antibodies also causes measurable damage to the lining of the intestines as seen on biopsy samples taken during an endoscopy (the "gold standard" of Celiac diagnosis).   Since you have been experimenting with whole wheat bread in the past year or so, possibly getting cross contaminated in a mixed household, and your immune system is still so sensitized to gluten consumption, you may want to go ahead with the gluten challenge.   It can take two years absolutely gluten free for the immune system to quit reacting to gluten exposure.   Avoiding gluten most if the time, but then experimenting with whole wheat bread is a great way to keep your body in a state of inflammation and illness.  A diagnosis would help you stop playing Russian roulette with your and your children's health.

      Accuracy of testing concerns

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @McKinleyWY! There currently is no testing for celiac disease that does not require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and, to be certain of accurate testing, longer than that. This applies to both phases of testing, the blood antibody tests and the endoscopy with biopsy.  There is the option of genetic testing to see if you have one or both of the two genes known to provide the potential to develop celiac disease. It is not really a diagnostic measure, however, as 30-40% of the general population has one or both of these genes whereas only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But genetic testing is valuable as a rule out measure. If you don't have either of the genes, it is highly unlikely that you can have celiac disease. Having said all that, even if you don't have celiac disease you can have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms as celiac disease but does not involve and autoimmune reaction that damages the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Both conditions call for the complete elimination of gluten from the diet. I hope this brings some clarity to your questions.
