Singing The Praises Of Pamela's Amazing Wheat Free Bread

The crust is crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside.....AHHHHHHH!!! I just stuffed my face with a ton of pizza. I did some with cheese, bacon and lettuce (kinda like a BLT) and the rest with marinara and 3 cheeses. My son ate 6+ pieces, DD ate 3! DS said it was just as good as Donato's (local pizza place) and that is HUGE coming from him!!

If you haven't tried this, you must. You can get Pamela'a Amazing Wheat Free Bread Mix on Amazon for $23.00 for 6 packages. I added garlic powder, oregano and basil before letting it rise.

I knew this mix made great bread that didn't have to be heated to be good and didn't go stale even after 4 days on the counter but pizza crust? Now I'm going to have to try this! Thanks!

I have been wanting a really good pizza. I'll have to try it, maybe a taco or a bacon cheeseburger. AAAHHHHH I can't wait.

I also use Pamela's pizza crust (with the added spices) to make breadsticks for spaghetti, etc. I just spread it out on a small greased cookie sheet, bake, then cut into "strips"...YUMMY! I've also done the same thing but spread it a bit thinner, bake, then cut into triangles to use in place of pita bread for dipping in hummus, etc.

Okay, I've got a pizza crust from this mix rising and I have a question for all of you that have a perforated pizza pan -- ever have a problem with gluten-free batter coming through the holes?

Trying to press out the crust created a bunch of little dough pills under the pan. Being the curious person that I am, I scraped them off and left them in that shape to see what texture they cook up like. Since I didn't want two pizza crusts, I made bread sticks with the rest of the dough.

BTW, the pizza crust turned out great! It reminded me of the homemade pizza crust a woman used to make for fundraisers at the church I grew up in. Non-Celiac Hubby said it was really great too.

Karen B, I put parchment paper on my pizza pan and then put the dough on that and roll it out. I just then bake it on the parchment paper (on the pan) so it doesn't stick and the dough doesn't go through the holes - works great.

Thanks! I'll try that next time. Hubby's already told me he wants a next time! :-)

Just a footnote...

One package of Pamela's makes 2 12-14 inch pizza crusts but we made one crust and an assortment of bread sticks. Hubby was saving the last one for me and I was saving it for him so it went stale on the counter and became very tough. And I found out a new use for left over bread sticks.

gluten-free dog chews! :lol::lol::lol:

It took our dog about 15 minutes to chew his way from one end to the other. Now he wants another one. I told him he'll have to wait a week. ;)

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I don't know if I am getting sufficient Omega Threes. I read about  phosphotidyl choline may cause heart issues. I will have o do further research on heathy Omega 3 supplements or from foods. Is there a blood test that can tell you everything level in your system such as Thiamine, Benfotiamine levels etc? Thanks

      If lectins were my problem, I would react to wheat germ (the highest source of wheat lectins) and beans. I don't. I only react to bread and pasta, which are the highest sources of gluten. Therefore, my issue is wheat-specific (Gluten/ATIs), not a general lectin issue.   I have eaten a supposedly high lectin diet (I say supposedly because lectin content in these foods is greatly reduced by proper cooking and I eat very few of those foods raw, and even then, rarely!!) for years. My health has improved greatly on my whole foods plant forward diet. I have asked all my drs and a registered dietician about my diet, asked if eating such a high amnt of fiber might interfere with the digestion of any other nutrients and the answer has always been NO.     while doing the gluten challenge I did not eat ANY wheat germ (since it doesn't have hardly any gluten, and I was too sick from the bread and pasta to want to eat much anyway) I will NOT put that poison in my body again. That was a horrific experience and if this is what most celiac patients have to deal with, I am very sorry for them I don't care if I have celiac or NCGS I won't intentionally cause myself that much pain and suffering it's not worth it.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
