How Do I Bake My Bread?


SweetAmber32

My dad bought me a second hand bread making machine by Oster. I'm not sure how to bake the bread for a gluten-free diet. It does not have settings to make gluten-free bread, so I'm not sure what settings to enter. Do i use settings for white bread, wheat, sourdough????? How long do I bake it? Is there a web site that explains all this, with how to bake bread with a bread machine?

I have no idea on how to bake bread with a bread machine. I just want to say that it may be risky to bake with a used bread machine, since it is most likely that gluten bread was baked in it before.

Others here baked bread with bread machines and will likely have an idea what to do.

"A second hand bread machine" draws a big concern from me. It is very difficult to clean a previously owned bread machine and the chance of you being glutened by cross contamination would be great.

Thoughtful of you dad though.

My dad and I cleaned the machine throughly several times. He even removed screws and and that turny thinga-ma-jig, whatha -you -call-it :P , and other removeable items and cleaned those. The machine looks to have been used once and then gotten rid of. It's probably cleaner now than when it left the warehouse. I would of gotten a new one, but i have no money, unable to work and the parents take care of me and my dad is buying expensive meds for my Fibromyalgia. So I took a chance with the second hand bread machine.

Seeing as how thoroughly you and your dad cleaned the machine, it should be fine I think. As an extra measure of safety, why not bake the first gluten-free loaf and let your parents (and others who can eat gluten) enjoy it before you start baking for yourself. :)

I don't have any machine-baking tips--I bake my bread in the oven.

Good idea Jerseyangel. I would've used the oven except my dad is an oven hogger. He's become the family chef. :rolleyes:

I have not had a lot of luck with my bread machine and the different kinds have different settings and such. Perhaps if you could tell us specifically which one you have, someone with that kind can be of more help to you.

I do know that gluten-free bread can not take a second rise. So use whatever setting you have that doesn't do the second rise. That was my biggest mistake.

:lol: I actually did a message the other day with the type of bread machine I have. No one was replying to it, not til I left this topic and now the other is getting replies. It's an Oster by the way.

You can buy Pamela's bread mix and use the regular white bread setting. Gluten free bread doesn't need all the steps on the bread machine, but it's my understanding that it won't hurt the bread to use that regular white bread setting.

I use the white bread setting on my bread machine, but I turn the machine off after the bread is mixed well, then I let it rise for 1 hour, then turn machine back on and go to a special setting that lets me bake for 350 degrees for about 1 hr and 1o mins.

I checked out a book at my library (can't remember the name of it :P ) that told me how to bake gluten free bread in a bread machine. Very informative.

Happy experimenting--- it's not really that difficult. :)

Actually, I did think of something. I make Gluten Free Pantry French Bread regularly, and on the back of the box there are instructions on how to make it in a bread maker. Judy (judyinphilly) does hers this way.

Thanks for the replies everyone. Hopefully I'll get the bread baking right. I'm terrible at cooking. :(

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
