Hamburger Buns, Finally!

Alright, I haven't had a bloody hamburger bun in three years, well, a good one I mean. (Don't try the Whole Foods gluten-free Bakehouse ones, they're awful) But last night! I made the Chebe cheese bread, and took two balls of dough and flattened them out about three & 1/2 inches wide and only 1/2 inch high, and made them with part romano cheese and part chedder. They were a tiny bit doughy in the middle, but Chebe always is, it's just because of the cheese I think. And I cooked some chopped garlic and onion into my burger patties, and I almost burst into tears it was so good. I haven't had a burger on a bun in three years, and this was SO GOOD!!!!! I'm gonna try hot dog buns soon........

YAY!!!!!!!!

That sounds so good!! Too bad they dont have Chebe where I live!

Kinikinink makes fantastic hamburger buns too.

Actually, the cheapest way to get Chebe is to order online a case of 'no-frills' stuff, you have to measure out the mix but it's cheaper.

They don't have Chebe here either, but a warning about Kinnickinnik...they smell bad. I would call it a stench. Maybe I'm the only one, but I'm sure glad I don't have to eat them. I made Ty a bunwich one time, and just about choked on the smell of them. I think he ate it all. I know they come in a package of four for around $6 or $7 and he only ate three. We threw the rest out. Check with Kinnickinnik eating friends to see what they think of the smell. It's entirely possible that I'm super senstive to smell. I can't be in the room if someones making Kraft Dinner - that horrible fake cheese smell. Blech!

Meanwhile, we are still looking for a decent hamburger bun (that doesn't smell bad) that is either reasonably priced or easy to bake AND tastes good.

Well, the Chebe was rather easy to bake. It calls for a certain amount of cheese, which I used mostly cheddar and a little fresh grated romano, it smelled wonderful, tasted wonderful.....

I made really awesome hamburger buns recently. I used the Best Ever Flax Meal Bread recipe that has been floating around on this forum. Then I used a large scoop (like an ice cream scoop with a spring release) to get a good uniform size bun. I cooked them on a muffin top pan wihich mad a perfect shape. Then I sprinkled a few sesame seeds on top before cooking. They were awesome!

If you try this, I recommend that when you scoop the batter out onto the pan then with a wet hand, pat the dough down to like a thick pancake - it will puff up when it rises and bakes.

I too just made the hamburger buns using Lorka's recipe. I think I used about a 1/2c. per bun. did the sesame on top also!!!!

I love the buns from Against the Grain Gourmet......never found any others that are this yummy!!!!On our pasta nights I use the crusty rolls from Everybody Eats......

It is so wonderful to have choices!!!!!

What is a muffin top pan? Do you think another type of pan could be used, or would they not turn out a proper shape?

Hmmm, I'm not sure how to describe it . . . a muffin top pan was designed to bake just the muffin top (I've also heard the term used to describe the part of a person that hangs over jeans that are too tight - lol). Anyway, it is kind of like a cookie sheet with big round, but shallow indents in them. Does that make any sense?

Ahh - better yet - here is a picture of it:

It worked out very well for making very large/sandwich/bun sized rolles. I am now looking for a good hot dog/grinder roll pan. I think King Arthur has them.

I didn't think they smelled bad! :) I did think they were crumbly and if you put any toppings on your burger the bun will fall apart. I'd rather just go without.

Cool deal, thanks for the info!!

Yes indeedy, he is 4 years old and we often call him Darth Ezra... or sometimes Dr. Destructo. His aspiration in life is to be a super villain when he grows up :huh: Sometimes I worry :rolleyes:

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

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind
