Red Mill gluten-free Baking Flour


celiac sam

Recommended Posts

celiac sam Newbie

I have been living a gluten avoidance lifestyle for 30 years but have not tried to bake with gluten free products. For Christmas I received a bag of Red Mill gluten-free all baking flour and a few cook books. However all the recipes call for flour combinations that are not Red Mill AP baking flour. Also there doesn't seem to be an extensive recipe list that uses the Red Mill AP flour. My question is.... Can I substitute Red Mill AP flour in traditional wheat bread recipes? Are there any addition or conversions I need to know about? will the bread turn out anywhere close to wheat bread? IS there a recipe source that specifically uses Red Mill AP baking flour? I am curious to know..... I would REALLY like to explore this.

Thanks

I only buy/use BRM All Purpose flour for this recipe:

Banana Nut Waffles

I use 1 1/2 cups almond milk, finely chopped almonds and I keep a banana in the freezer...just thaw and squeeze it out of the peel. They are wonderful!

If you go to the Red Mill website they'll have a lot of recipes.

I use BRM all purpose flour in all of my baking with good results. I do find that if you back off a little bit on the amount of flour you use when you are using your own recipes and add about 1 tsp. xanthun gum for each cup of flour, you will have good results. I can't believe you have been eating gluten-free this long and have not experimented with baking. BRM bread mix is great, I use it all the time and the pizza crust is TO DIE FOR. I just tried it for the first time recently.

      @HAUS, I was at an event in the UK a few years back. I remember ringing the restaurant ahead to inquire about the gluten free options. All I wanted was a few gluten free sandwiches, which they provided and they were delicious. The gluten-free bread they used was Warbutons white bread and I remember mentioning it on this site before. No harm in trying it once. It's fortified with Calcium and Iron. https://www.warburtonsglutenfree.com/warbs_products/white-loaf/ The only other gluten-free bread that I've come across that is fortified is Schar with Iodized salt, nothing else.

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?
