Yeast Bread: Pocket Bread/flat Bread Or Buns

I've been so disappointed in the results of my attempts to make yeast bread without eggs that I about gave up. So I started looking around for a yeast bread that did not call for eggs, and found that most of the pizza crust recipes fit the bill. This one that I adapted from a recipe by Carol Fenster, puffs up nicely while baking and when one makes smaller rounds rather than a large pizza crust, it makes pocket bread. And it tastes really good - even untoasted - and works well for making sandwiches. The original recipe calls for powdered milk, but I use the almond meal as a substitute.

These flat breads puff up while baking, which more or less separates the top and bottom crusts leaving a pocket and also ensures that the inside is well done and not gummy (a problem with egg-free breads). They will keep a couple days but I usually wrap each one with plastic wrap and then insert in a freezer bag and store in the freezer.

Yeast bread: Pocket Bread/flat bread or buns

EGG FREE, DAIRY FREE, SOY FREE

Preheat oven to 425 F

Line a cookie sheet with foil. Spray a light coating of oil, or, rub oil on it with your hands and then pick up excess with a paper towel.

Flour:

2/3 cup flour - place 1 T garbfava flour in a 2/3 cup measure, then add brown rice flour to fill. (You can also add 2 T superfine brown rice flour if you have, which makes the bread softer.)

Add to flour:

That sounds like a great recipe. Thanks for sharing :-) I love pocket bread. Anybody know of a good substitute for the gelatin?

The gelatin is there to keep the bread moist. (I believe it's the tapioca that causes the puffing, so replacing or eliminating gelatin shouldn't make that much difference.)

I'm thinking that you could use a couple tablespoons applesauce in place of the gelatin.

I use a beef gelatin (NOW brand), and there are Kosher gelatins that also don't contain pork, if that makes a difference to you.

      Do you have online access to your celiac panel test results such that you could post them? tTG-IGG is kind of a secondary test. A weak positive in that one could indicate celiac disease but since it isn't as specific a marker as the tTG-IGA it is not real convincing. You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) for which there is no test. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. It is 10x more common than celiac disease and shares many of the same symptoms. Some experts believe it can be a precursor to celiac disease. The antidote for both is the same: total avoidance of gluten.

      I haven't been on this forum for a long time, but it was absolutely wonderful during the diagnostic process!  My path for celiac disease diagnosis was the following: -Had normal IgA level, and my only serology positive test was the DGP IgG -Deficiencies in both Vitamins D and K that did not increase at first despite massive supplementation -Diagnosis of fat malabsorption both total and neutral -Diagnosis of severe exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) -Testing was completed to rule out causes of EPI, and the only one not ruled out was celiac. -Both traditional endoscopy and pill capsule endoscopy yielded negative results for biopsy confirmation, but my GI doctor said that both procedures simply could have missed the damaged spots. -EPI and fat malabsorption resolved after taking Creon for 6 months since my EPI was caused by celiac -23 and Me said I don't have either of the two prominent genes for celiac disease   Remember that you might not have 'textbook' symptoms, but you still may have celiac disease.   Also, I am SO incredibly grateful for this site for all the learning it has allowed me to do. I have a senior dog, and these last few weeks with her were very scary! After two hospital stays, she finally received an IBD diagnosis after having gastroenteritis and pancreatitis. I know that celiac disease is not IBD, however, through reading this site, I learned more about it. I was relieved when I found out she had IBD and not cancer this past Wednesday. I know IBD can be managed thanks to what I've learned here!  So celiac.com, not only did you help me, but you helped my pup too! Thank you ❤️

      It was tTG IGG that was flagged high. I'm not sure about the other stuff. I'm still eating my normal stuff.

      Thank you for your post, @Nedast, and welcome to the forum. It is interesting to read of your experiences. Although I've not had TMJ, from time to time I have had a bit of mild pain in my jaw, sharp stabbing pains and tingling in my face which appears to have been caused by issues with my trigeminal nerve.  I read that sometimes a damaged trigeminal nerve in coeliacs can heal after adopting a gluten free diet.  I try to keep out of cold winds or wear a scarf over my face when it is cold and windy, those conditions tend to be my 'trigger' but I do think that staying clear of gluten has helped.  Also, sleeping with a rolled up towel under my neck is a tip I picked up online, again, that seems to bring benefits. Thank you again for your input - living with this sort of pain can be very hard, so it is good to be able to share advice.
