First, thanks to all of you for your advice on gluten-free bread making. Perseverance pays off... I made my first successful loaf of gluten-free bread. It was light, fluffy, and not really spongy. See my avatar for pic.

Oh, and Cheri, I sent you a PM again. Don't know WHICH bread you were referring to. There were TWO bread recipes on that site.....

I ended up tweaking a recipe I found, adding, changing and creating my own.... Oh boy, my FIRST gluten-free bread recipe!

See my profile for a link to the pic and recipe in the post on my blog. See website in my profile...

Congratulations on your bread.

Would you mind posting your revised recipe? I see from your blog that you cannot have eggs. I've been trying, and not succeeding, in baking a good loaf of gluten-free and egg-free bread.

I would like to see it also, my nephew is coming to visit this fall, he has egg issues, I have gluten issues, would be a nice compromise! Anyone want to hire out as my chef for the 10 days he will be here, would only have to shuffle his multiple food allergies and my gluten, lol :lol:

Sure. Here it is as posted on my blog: [EDITED TO REFLECT MY ADDITION OF VINEGAR, OOPS!]

I finally made my first successful loaf of gluten-free bread, and I am in heaven. I ended up tweaking a recipe I found--adding, changing ingredients and finally creating my own recipe that is free of gluten, dairy, and eggs. Mmmmmmmmmmmm. This bread was everything I wanted it to be--light, fluffy, not really spongey or dry like the other 8 failed bricks I've made in a week. Now, my mind races as I think about the possible variations on my newly concocted recipe: english muffins, bagels, sandwich buns for burgers and dogs... Oh, I have more work to do.

Now, here's my recipe:

3/4 cup Garbanzo bean flour

3/8 cup sorghum flour

1 cup cornstarch

1 cup + 1 Tablespoon tapioca flour

2 tbsp sweet rice flour

3 tbsp ground flaxseed

3 tbsp vegetable oil

Congrats on the bread. Isn't it an awesome feeling when you finally make something all on your own!

NOT being forum police here - but I want to protect you from my mistakes in the past. You're not allowed to post your blog as a link in a post. You ARE allowed to add it to your profile and I think you're allowed to direct people there.

I just don't want you to make the same mistakes I did. :D

luv2cook Rookie

Wow, thanks. Didn't know that having been a member about a week or so, thanks. I changed the previous post to reflect this, and added my blog link to my profile instead. I appreciate the advice.

NO PROBLEM! I just don't want you to get in any trouble (not like Scott is harsh or anything at all). I think due to the real advertising he has on the site he has to be careful of the "free" advertising so he doesn't lose sponsors.

It is in the guidelines you agree to when signing up (but who reads ALL of those when you sign up somewhere! LOL :D).

Anyway...glad you got your pic working. Looks like a great loaf. I did go check out your blog too. :D

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      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!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again
