I Ate A Sandwich!

I did it! I did it! I made a sandwich that actually tastes like a sandwich!!

I'm not talking about a sandwich made from those dry, cardboard flavored breads, either. I'm talking moist, springy bread with a thin, flaky crust type bread sandwich!

I made the bread and I tell you, peanut butter and apple jelly has never tasted so good. (Yes, this is my very own recipe that I adapted from a regular (glutenated) white bread recipe.)

Only problem I had with the bread is that it is so moist and springy it is difficult to cut while the bread is still hot. So, make sure to allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.

Sorghum Flour Bread

Your timing is perfect. I am getting ready to make bread today. I keep hearing how wonderful sorghum flour is yet it always seems to be a small portion of any recipe that I see. I'll have to give this a try.

I gave my landlords each a piece of this bread this afternoon. They both asked me if I was sure this was a type of bread I can eat!! Their daughter stole half of it for herself. :lol:

Any ideas for the dairy intolerant? Would you use rice or soy milk in place of the regular milk?

Hmm... rice or soy? I'm not sure how to answer that question. I'm dairy sensitive, but I can use milk in cooking and eat cheese and some yogurts without a problem. I just cannot drink milk or eat ice cream.

Soy milk gives me a very bad stomach ache, so I've never worked with it. If I were to replace the milk, I'd probably use rice milk just because that's what I can use.

Anyone who can use soy milk have any ideas on this? I'm thinking that either one could be used.

Oops!

I just made another loaf of bread using the recipe as I had it posted and realized I posted what I originally wrote, not the final recipe.

I edited the recipe and made the following changes:

1 cup of Milk (not 3/4 cup)

Bake for 40 minuites. (Not 45 minutes)

Sorry about that everyone!!

Okay, I was soooo excited when I saw this receipe that I went right to the kitchen and started to mix this up... Then I see this at the bottom -

Sorghum Flour Mix

3 - cups Sorghum Flour

2 - cups Potato Starch

2.5 - cups Tapioca Flour

oh my gosh, I probably will have a rock. I only used sorghum flour ... I tried to fix it by adding 1/2 c Potato starch, and 1/2 c Tapioca Flour, one more egg, and a splash of water....

It is slowly rising, but it has been 45 min.... I feel so stupid.

I guess we still won't be eating a good bread yet. :(

Oh no! Don't feel stupid. I should have put the flour mix at the top or made a note that it was listed at the bottom.

I'm so sorry I didn't put the flour mix more visible. :(

Oh my ... it wasn't your fault, I just got so excited about the receipe and started before I read the whole thing. thinking I have sorghum flour I just jumped right in. I put it in the oven anyway to see what happens, it rose about 2" from the top of the pan..but as it is baking it is not looking good. Want to hide it before anyone comes home from work/school. I don't want them to be excited....then disappointed.

Yep. bread is too dry and dense, but...

On the bright side...I will have bread crumbs for meatloaf, or meatballs! :rolleyes:

Thanks for the recipe, I've been REALLY wanting to make a sorghum bread! Question though - I have a problem with potatoes, anyone have recommendations for an alternate starch for the flour mix?

Thanks!

You're welcome :)

You could try cornstarch as an alternative. I've also heard that some people substitute arrowroot starch for cornstarch. Don't know how that would turn out. I've never tried using arrowroot in bread before.

Would this recipe work with skim milk? I never keep whole milk in the house, but assume that this recipe was originally made with whole milk. Would the difference in the fat content in the milk make a difference in the taste/texture of the bread? Thanks.

Mrg: I would think you can do this with skim milk. If you try it, please let us know how it comes out. :)

Yellow Rose: I've never used a bread machine, so I do not know the answer to this. I do know that the dough ends up very thick and sticky before I pour it into the pan. If you try it in the bread machine, please let us know if it works. :)

I sub hemp or almond milk 1 for 1 in all recipes and have never had a problem. I make the best gluten free bread recipe from this site and use hemp instead of regular milk and it turns out for me.

The skim milk worked great. This loaf came out better than almost any other loaf of gluten-free bread that I've tried to make from scratch. It rose nicely and baked to a golden brown and, best of all, my DD loved it. I was able to slice the loaf into thin slices and it didn't crumble at all. Thanks!

Mystilyn: I am getting ready to gather my ingredients to make bread. I am confused on the amount of milk you used. Was it a cup like the posted recipie states or 3/4 cup?

THANK YOU for this wonderful bread!!!!! :D I made one loaf yesterday afternoon and Kaitlyn Grace ate 3 slices, it was so good that I ended up making another loaf last night. I used skim milk and I warmed it in the microwave. It rose very beautifully while baking a good 2-3 inches above my pan and did not deflate after baking. It slices great, no crumbled messes. It was a very easy bread to make.

As a side note I added 1/2 cup of soy flour to the flour mixture and 1 cup of flax seed.

THANK YOU AGAIN

I sure wish someone would try this in a bread machine! I'm dying to try this recipe. I think tomorrow will be the day for me to try this in a machine....will post the results.

Leave it to a Yankee to come up with such a great recipe (I'm originally from NH also).I tried this in my bread machine today and I only have one complaint....I want more! I used the basic bread cycle,put the liquids in first, along with melted butter and brown sugar,added the flour mixture,then the yeast on top. The bread loaf was smaller than I thought it woluld be, so I will adjust the recipe the next time and make 1 1/2 times the recipe. I used Blue Diamond unsweetened original almond drink because I'm trying to avoid dairy. I started trying bread recipes about a month ago, and this one is the best so far. It hasn't cooled completely yet, and half the loaf has been eaten. If the texture is the same tomorrow as right now, it's a keeper. Thanks for this recipe.

It's tomorrow and the bread is a bit dry and crumbly. I'm at a high altitude (the Rockies) and neglected to add additional water to compensate for the altitude. The taste was superb. I'll be at a lower altitude for the winter season and will try it again. I also purchased a heavy duty mixer with dough hooks, so I can test the original recipe.

Great bread! We just ate sandwiches on it too - fresh loaf. I'll be anxious to see what the consistency is tomorrow.

This makes a nice tall, fragrant and mild-tasting loaf of bread that turns out well when using the directions noted in the first post to this thread. It took a little while longer for mine to rise but only about 10 minutes more, and my yeast was set to expire in Dec of this year, so it could be that.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
