The only other thing I've heard of to use is Expandex, which is derived from corn. I'm not sure where to get it though, and I haven't used it myself. Maybe someone else will jump in...

Here are some links that may be of use to you.

Open Original Shared Link that reccommends subbing milled flax seed for the xanthan in equal amounts. I haven't tried it myself, so I can't say how well it will work.

Open Original Shared Link that recommends subbing unflavored gelatin for xanthan at a double measure. So for 1 T xanthan, one would sub 2 T unflavored gelatin.

Open Original Shared Link that talks about baking without xanthan.

      Wheat flour is fortified with vitamins in the U.S. as a part of USDA policy. Gluten free facsimile products are not fortified. There is no government mandate for such. When you remove wheat flour by going gluten free, you may be removing a significant source of vitamins.

      Okay.  That doesn't answer the question, but thanks anyway.
