Gluten Free Pantry French Bread Mix


Joni63

Recommended Posts

Hello,

So, I'm getting ready for my first gluten-free Thanksgiving. Bought GFP French Bread Mix. Thought I would bake it up today, eat some with dinner and freeze half for stuffing for Thanksgiving. Looked at the directions :huh:I need a bread machine! I don't know what I was thinking but I don't have a bread machine! The closest thing I have is an old food processor that does have dough type hooks.

Can I use that? I'm sure I won't be kneading dough by hand - that is just way too much! What should I do?

Thanks!

I have a box of that mix. I haven't made it yet, but on my box it has directions on how to use a heavy duty mixer and the oven. They are located just below the directions for the bread machine. If you need them, let me know. I can type them up for you.

Oh, yes it does! Thank you I did not see it at first. I'm so relieved.

Your the best ptkds!

I make this bread about every two weeks or so--I always use my Kitchen Aid mixer and bake it in the oven. It comes out fine :)

PS--I use water in place of any milk and light olive oil as the oil/butter. Delicious!

Also, it makes a bit too much dough for my Pyrex loaf pan, so I use the rest of the dough for hamburger rolls.

Well, it's in the oven now. My regular mixer had dough hooks I forgot about because I've never used them. I was surprised that the dough was smooth and easy to work with. Guess I expected a heavy thick dough. I used water and corn oil - wasn't sure if my olive oil would be too heavy(it's not lite).

Great idea making the extra into hamburger rolls. :)

I'll let you know how my first bread experience turns out! :unsure:

Well, it's done. I'm not overly impressed, but it's not too bad either. White bread/french bread isn't something I'm real fond of non gluten free so I'm not surprised. Seems like the texture will work as stuffing. If not, I think I'll try a corn bread stuffing next time.

has any one tried to make these into rolls/biscuits? i didn't even think of offering bread at thanksgiving dinner but realized that's only because i never eat bread but the rest of the world does....i have a box of this mix and thought i could try dropping in onto a cookie sheet but i don't want to waste a whole box of mix if it isn't going to work....

Yes--like I said above, I bake a loaf but my bread pan is a bit small, so I use the leftover dough to make into rolls.

I usually make them hamburger bun size, but I've also made them smaller. Just drop the dough on a cookie sheet and shape with plastic wrap between your hands and the dough(easier that way ;) ). Let it rise for the 40 minutes and then bake until golden brown.

I just bought that mix myself and I do have a bread machine, but I mixed it by hand, covered it with plastic wrap in the pan to rise and then baked it, it was good! I loved freshly baked homemade bread, you just can't beat it with store bought types, especially when it's gluten-free. gluten-free pantry also makes a yankee cornbread mix that I plan to use for my cornbread dressing. Good luck and have a happy thanksgiving!

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
