Ok, I am sure this has been asked before but I couldn't find it. I really miss bread!!! So does anyone have a good recipe or a brand I can pick up at a store? Love to have any help on this.

Thanks

I am not much of a bread eater and haven't tried any gluten free bread yet, but the general conclusion that I have read on here is that Udi's is one of the best. Not sure where to find it, and do not know from personal experience, just sharing what I have read so far.

Good Luck!

`Udi's bread is wonderful. If you have a whole foods near by they have several breads in the bakery. We like this bread for grilled sandwiches. Some people like Schar breads. For mixes: a popular bread mix is Anna's Bread Mixes, Sisters three ( a new kid on the block) Has a good white gluten-free bread.

Do you get Living Without? They have a very good bread recipe & another is Lorka's bread found in the recipe section of this site. (Laurie Crater) she also has a cookbook.

Two good cookbooks with breads recipes that are excellent are: Baking Classics by Annalise Roberts, she also has a bread machine cookbook as well. Elizabeth Barbone's cookbook as well.

I live in north Dallas, and the Udi brand is fantastic. I can buy it frozen at Sprouts or fresh at Whole Foods. Their bagels are wonderful - just like real bagels. Unfortunately they are having some issues with the bagel packaging and have discontinued them, but promise they will be back.

My husband who loves white bread gave in and tasted my Usi white bread toated with some peanut butter and said it was delicious...

Thank you all for your replies! I went this weekend to look at our Nature's Pantry (Kansas City) and found Udi's bread and Blueberry muffins. I had the BB muffins this monring, WOW, that was better than regulat BB muffins! I was so surprised! I look forward to trying the bread tonight. Thank you so much.

mamaw thanks for all that info. That was very helpful. I plan to try to make my own bread again sometime. I have failed in the past so I am nervous about "wasting" ingredients again.

Glutino makes some good breads and I believe english muffins. I can get them here in Canada at our local grocery stores in the freezer section. Have also found a great pizza crust - kinnikinnick

I like Gluton's bagels, and pizza. My favorite bread so far is Wunder Bread by Liberty Baker. They are local for me (Central Florida), my Whole Foods carries them and they are on-line as well.

I absolutey LOVE "Bob's Red Mill: Homemade Wonderful Bread" It comes in a mix and its easy to add a few ingredients then toss it in the bread machine(or oven would work) It comes out NORMAL sized, plus its suuuper soft and has awesome texture! I looove it its like white wheat bread. Yum!:) Plus we add flax, walnuts, gluten-free oats and quinoa flakes to make it more whole-wheat like(my old fave)

Here in KC, we have an bakery Olivias Oven. I know they sell in Hyvees. They make the best donut holes. Look them up & it tells you the days they deliver so you can get it fresh.

I have recently discovered the Grainless Baker. They make French baguettes that are very much like the real thing. I use them to make garlic toast. My available gluten-free foods are very limited, but I do order Grainless Baker from the Gluten Free Mall.

In addition to Udi's white bread (on sale through today at Whole Foods), their pizza crust is awesome. I used to buy kinnikinnik crust until I found udi's. Even my dh and kids will eat Udi's food. I love Udi's cinnamon rolls - slightly warm with cream cheese on top.

My favorite gluten free bread is Kinnikinnick white bread. When toasted, it tastes like "real" bread. I buy it in Kroger and it is from a company in Canada.

where do you buy Udi's? i live in a rural place so i am pretty much limited to Kroger gluten free stuff, occasionally if i head to the "big City" there is a Earth Foods i can shop at. I absolutely LOVE Bobs Red Mill gluten free corn bread- i am a bread LOVER, i used to live off toast and cheezits so this gluten free thing is hard lol

I love Pamela's! I may send her a love letter. I bought the mix at Whole Foods and used my bread machine which I just got at Amazon for $50 (+ free shipping). I have eaten more bread in the past few weeks than I have in my entire life! I like the Bob's Red Mill mixes and I also love this recipe (love this blog in general): Open Original Shared Link

I have never been a baker. I hate to bake. However the bread machine is a godsend. You just plop everything in and 3 hours later you have amazing bread. I freeze slices of bread, crumbs and croutons for those weeks I don't feel like baking anything.

Love the frozen Kinnikinnik (sp?) pizza dough. We even use them to make garlic bread. Haven't had Udi's but will see if my Whole Foods carries them.

For crackers I like the Glutino crackers and Veggie Chips (a potato based chip).

*Oh and you don't need a bread machine for the mixes I posted above. They each have non machine instructions.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
