Schar Classic White Bread Mix

Has anyone been successful in making the Schar Classic White Bread Mix in a bread machine? If so, did you follow the directions on the box exactly or modify it because my dough always seems alittle too thick for the paddle to turn and the bread never turns out right. Thanks!

I only tried it in the machine once and I just wanted to report that I had the same experience as you.

I know right?! It's crazy. I absolutely love all other schar products. Premade bread, rolls, pasta and deserts. But something is up with that recipe. It needs altered. Maybe a master chef could chime in. The problem is that with the recipe the dough is VERY thick. I use a Cuisinart convection bread maker and usually it does a great job with mixes on the gluten free setting. It always ends up with a PALE flaky white crust....

Hi,

I saw this thread now and I'd like to give you my advice for this recipe. I always use "Schar"'s flour mixtures, especially the all-purpose flour. I just love it! Wich ever recipe I want to convert in gluten-free I never fail with that flour.

When I make the Classic white bread (not only in the bread machine, but always) I ommit 3-4 tbsps from the flour mixture and I substitute it with soy flour or chickpea flour. These two flours, if added to the normal flour mixture, give softness to the final product, and keep it fresh longer.

I hope this tip will help you:)

I made the Schar's bread in a breadmaker last night (I was out of my usual Glutino Favorite Sandwich Bread mix so had to pick this up at the store). I did some stirring in the machine with a spatula a couple of times to make sure all the dry was incorporated. I was also a little heavy handed with the oil, probably closer to three tablespoons than two. 

 

It came out well, but not browned. That off-white crust was kind of unappetizing, so I dumped it out of the pan, rubbed a little butter on the top and stuck it in the convection oven at 325 degrees for about fifteen minutes. It would have been less but I hadn't anticipated the need so hadn't pre-heated the oven. 

 

After that it was lovely! It had a San Francisco sourdough consistency (and almost taste) that I have missed. I probably won't buy it regularly, it's $3 more per loaf than the Glutino, but for an every-now and then treat, sure.

 

Until I figure out the recipe, that is . . .

      Dried Chickpeas

      Hello, @Aretaeus Cappadocia, My favorite source of B12 is liver.  😺 I react to nutritional yeast the same way as if I were glutened.  Casein, a protein in dairy, and nutritional yeast have protein segments that match certain antigenic protein segments in gluten.  The proteins in rice, corn (maize), and chicken meat have them as well.   Some people with Celiac might tolerate them without a problem, but I need to avoid them.  For those still having symptoms, cutting these out of our diet may improve symptoms.

      Confused about HLA-DQ Celiac gene test result

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @ainsleydale1700! First, it is very unlikely, given your genetic results, that you have celiac disease. But it is not a slam dunk. Second, there are some other reasons besides having celiac disease that your blood antibody testing was positive. There are some diseases, some medications and even (for some people) some foods (dairy, the protein "casein") that can cause elevated celiac blood antibody test scores. Usually, the other causes don't produce marginally high test scores and not super high ones. Having said that, by far, the most common reason for elevated tTG-IGA celiac antibody test scores (this is the most common test ordered by doctors when checking for celiac disease) is celiac disease itself. Please post back and list all celiac blood antibody tests that were done with their scores and with their reference ranges. Without the reference ranges for negative vs. positive we can't tell much because they vary from lab to lab. Third, and this is an terrible bum steer by your doc, for the biopsy results to be valid, you need to have been eating generous amounts of gluten up to the day of the procedure for several weeks.  Having said all that, it sounds most likely that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. The two share many common symptoms but NCGS is not autoimmune in nature and doesn't damage the lining of the small bowel. What symptoms do you have? Do you have any blood work that is out of norm like iron deficiency that would suggest celiac disease?

      Confused about HLA-DQ Celiac gene test result

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      HLA testing can definitely be confusing. Classic celiac disease risk is most strongly associated with having the full HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 heterodimer, which requires specific DQA1 and DQB1 genes working together. Your report shows you are negative for the common DQ2 and DQ8 combinations, but positive for DQB102, which is one component of the DQ2 pair. On its own, DQB102 does not usually form the full DQ2 molecule most strongly linked to celiac disease, which is likely why your doctor said you do not carry the typical “celiac genes.” However, genetics are only part of the picture. A negative gene test makes celiac disease much less likely, but not absolutely impossible in rare cases. More importantly, both antibody testing and biopsy are only reliable when someone is actively eating gluten; being gluten-free for four years before testing can cause both bloodwork and intestinal biopsy to appear falsely negative. Given your positive antibodies and ongoing symptoms, it may be reasonable to seek clarification from a gastroenterologist experienced in celiac disease about whether proper gluten exposure was done before testing and whether additional evaluation is needed.

      I agree with your post and have had similar experiences. I'm commenting to add the suggestion of also using nutritional yeast as a supplement. It's a rich source of B vitamins and other nutrients, and some brands are further supplemented with additional B12. I sprinkle a modest amount in a variety of savory recipes.
