Baking Bread

Ok I love to bake, but I have always baked desserts, pastries, cookies, candies, etc, and I am pretty fearless about it.

Bread however, living in Seattle we always had a "Great Harvest" at any of the neighbohoods I have lived in.

So now I have some ideas... and questions because I am not sure what does what in recipes. Gimme a week and I will be more confident.

The recipe I was itching to try was from my book The Wheat Free Cook (Jacqueline Mallorica) and it calls for yogurt. It's a quick bread recipe, there is no yeast in it. And it's a 'Hearth- Style' rustic with seeds on it.

I can't have vinegar... I can't have dairy... I am assuming it's to react somehow with baking soda or baking powder?

You think I could substitute with citric acid powder?

If the recipe calls for dairy, that would be the reason to include baking soda. The soda neutralizes the acid in the dairy, so the baking powder doesn't fizzle out before you get the dough in the oven. Therefore, if you omit dairy and other acidic ingredients, you should be able to omit the baking soda.

If it where me, I'd probably just use a little unsweetened apple sauce in place of the yogurt, and however much extra water it takes to get the right consistency for the dough.

Use Bob's Red Mill baking powder, and it should be just fine. From all my experience, Rumford's doesn't work in gluten-free breads.

The addition of yogurt or buttermilk produces a moist tender product. I have been using plain soy yogurt(Whole Soy and Co.) as a CF sub. for yogurt or buttermilk. If the original recipe called for buttermilk then I add a just little water to thin the yogurt just a bit to make it the consistancy of buttermilk. IMHO the best baked goods recipes often have buttermilk or yogurt in them.

If you don't use soy yogurt then you will need to sub with something of a similar thickness and moisture content, like the applesauce that RiceGuy suggested, or some other puree.

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      @fatjacksonthecat I have been doing some digging about the topic of nicotine and celiac.  I came across many studies that showed that the nicotine patch helped many with long covid and chronic fatigue syndrome.  I have a son who was diagnosed with celiac and his symptoms are severe when he is glutened.  He shows a lot of neurological inflammation and suffered with fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and insomnia. There have been studies revealing that nicotine smoke actually masking celiac symptoms.  I also read that microdosing with a nictoine patch prevents one from addiction.  We are currently trying this out and so far it has lifted the brain fog and helped with anxiety and mood.  One of the studies I have read showed that it's not so much the dose, but the length of time a person is on the patch that showed improvements.  Many showed significant improvement as early as week 3 and continued through week 12.  We are taking 3 day breaks in between to make sure we don't down regulate the nicotine receptors.   How have things been for you?  Are you still chewing nicotine gum?  Perhaps, try the patch?  And how long did it take to ease up on your symptoms when glutened?

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?
