Cold Kitchen And Bread Won't Rise

What am I doing wrong with my bread? No matter the recipe, I can't get it to rise. My regular bread is 3 inches thick, and french bread looks like thick pancakes. My kitchen is always cool, but I've tried putting the pans between stove burners, into the oven on warm, and nothing seems to help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, I'm at 6000 ft elevation, if that has any bearing on the issue. thanks to all

Maybe your yeast is not good....Every once in a while I proof my yeast to check it out....I put 1 tsp dry yeast in a glass of warm water with a little sugar and let it set a while, like maybe 10 min...if it gets foamy on top the yeast is good...if it doesn't you need new yeast....I don't know anything about the elevation issue...

a few things - are you using gluten-free recipes, or just substituting gluten-free flours in your old recipes? Have you tried a different package of yeast? Finally, you can try turning your oven on for 1 or 2 minutes and turning it off again, and then putting your bread in there to rise.

You might be able to put your bread pan on a heating pad set to low, or put the pan over a bowl of hot water. Try setting it on top of the dryer while you run it. And definitely check your yeast - if it's too old or dead it just won't grow.

I've used two different yeasts, both supposedly new, but I'll check them. Always gluten-free recipes

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      PPI's can be a wonderful healing agent when used as prescribed on the label which I believe recommends use of up to 8 weeks. But they are like antibiotics in that they are overprescribed and undermonitored. Docs generally prescribe them and then keep prescribing them because they take care of immediate symptoms so well. Physicians are more into treating symptoms than uncovering causes.
