Wonderful Bread

Hi everyone, I'm going nuts looking for a good recipe or a brand of bread that I can buy to use for sandwiches and veggie burgers. Does anyone have anything that they really like and would like to recommend? Thanks. :rolleyes:

I love the Kinnikinnick brand. Their italian white is fantastic, like all of our breads it needs to be zapped and or toasted but it has the texture of bread not cardboard and doesn't fall apart. They also make a frozen pizza shell that is flaky and doughy and is also good for cream cheese and jelly. Their hamburger and hot dog buns are good also and make sure you pick up and try their version of a sandwhich cookie, chocolate and vannila are both good for eating plain, dunking and crumbing for ice cream and pie crusts. Others will be on with their fav's I am sure so I'll stop now. :)

Although I have never tried it, I have heard people rave about Kinnikinnick bread. I use Grainless baker, but that may not be in your area.

If you feel up to baking, I used this one and thought it turned out great. So far, it's the only one that my daughter will eat even if it's not toasted. (She preferred her wheat bread toasted, too)

At this point, my daughter is the only one that has to eat gluten-free (son is being tested). The rest of us are eating gluten-lite. We all try her gluten-free items and help pick out the versions that are most like the prediagnosis, gluten-filled items. The rest of the family agrees, that so far, this is the best bread.

I use Chebe brand bread mixes, they are very simple to make and they are delicious, once I make them, the whole family goes nuts, I can't keep the bread in the house and you can freeze the dough to use it at a later time, they have a website, I believe it is chebe.com. Check it out and let us know what you think about it. You get to add your own spices, and cheeses you want too.

Kinnikinnick is great, as others have mentioned. My favorite bread recipe is posted Open Original Shared Link. It is from the book "Open Original Shared Link" by Elizabeth Barbone, which I also heartily recommend.

Breads from Anna mixes are amazing. Also Against the Grain bagels, baguettes and rolls are amazing. You can buy them in Northeast Whole Foods. I don't know about the rest of the country. They are made in Bratteboro VT and I think there is a website.

I 2nd the Grainless Baker. I had a delicious turkey with swiss sandwich on mock rye today for lunch with their bread. No toasting and crumbling. And last night I had a yummy grilled cheese with it.

If you want a mix, I like the Anna breads.

I also love Breads by Anna. She came to a local celiac support group meeting last night with samples of 6 of her bread mixes. If you want to bake your own yeast or quick breads, I recommend her mixes. You can make sandwich breads or burger buns from her mixes. She also makes an easy to prepare pie crust.

However, if you want to order premade breads that last at least a year unopened on the pantry shelf or several months in the freezer after opening, I recommend Ener-G's Seattle Brown bread, hamburger buns and hotdog buns. They also have a great Corn Loaf (tastes like sour dough), Harvest Loaf (very dark and sweet) and Brown Rice with Sweet Potato English Muffins. Unfortunately Ener-G has developed a bad rep, because they offer their (HORRIBLE) rice and tapioca loaves in nation wide stores. Meanwhile all the other great breads they make are only available online for many people. Fortunately I live in Seattle, where Ener-G has their bakery. So I can walk into their bakery and see everything they offer, sample products and get discount 'sale' products. They also offer monthly online 'sales'. Also several Seattle area health food stores carry the better tasting Ener-G Breads I mentioned (Seattle Brown, etc.).

I have to recommend Kinnikinnick. Our whole family is gluten-free and have tried lots of different breads. So far theirs seems the best. Plus, they make yeast-free/egg-free/milk-free breads. Im sure you could make a good bread with the right recipe, but we are pretty busy and don't have time to experiment. We usually buy two dozen loaves at one time and freeze them. To thaw we bought a toaster that has that defrost/toast option, so its easy to make sandwiches, etc.

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?
