just google quickie flaxmeal bread

I tried to make the flaxmeal bread today-dairy free and egg free. It was really good but it needed to rise a bit more. I even was able to slice it. All I had was rice milk with vinegar b/c I forgot to use the powdered buttermilk in the cupboard

I used ener g egg replacement and even put some flaxmeal in it too.

I used Carol's sorghum mix. Its edible and I didn't have to throw it out

Any suggestions to make it rise a bit higher???

Thanks for your smart ideas

You could up the amount of baking powder. If you are not yeast-sensitive, you could add a teaspoon of yeast; mix it with the rice milk (warm the rice milk slightly, so it's lukewarm, but NOT hot), let it sit for 5 minutes or so. If you have the baking powder, you don't need to let it sit to rise for 45 minutes--maybe 10, and it will rise more in the oven.

Also, don't skip the salt--that helps, too!

Using a glass baking pan instead of metal seems to make a huge difference for gluten-free breads, but I don't know why. You can preheat it in the oven as it preheats--then spray it with oil, and dust with corn meal (or whatever gluten-free flour you tolerate).

GOod luck!

Roben Ryberg's biscuits are also dairy-free and egg-free. They use corn starch, potato starch, shortening and milk (which could be rice milk)--I think the recipe is on celiac.com.

Great ideas to try...Thanks so much!

Yay! Thanks Fiddle-Faddle! I put into the egg replacer: the yeast, 1/2 the flax, some or the rice milk and used 1/4 tsp. extra baking powder. Oh and Allergygrocer said to use twice the egg replacer with wheat subs so I used 3 tsp. instead of 1 1/2. I used a metal pan and it all turned out like the normal kind. While the batter was sitting, I baked my first normal looking buns with the regular flaxmeal recipe, it made 5...they are so cute!!!

Now I am trying egg free/gluten-free/dairy free cinnamon rolls. I am holding my breath...for along time If they are good I will let ya know. If not I will throw them at cars...Ha ha!

Well, I wasn't hungry but I had to try the bread so I made a PB&J...very good...ef/gluten-free/df and soyfree too.

I didn't have to throw the rolls but they didn't come out of the oven as cinnamon rolls. I give them a new name "cinnamon swirl biscuits". Very good the first day, a bit dry today, but still good. Sounds like a weather report
