The yeast and water temperature may have been part of the problem, particularly the water temperature. The water should be warm (I believe right around 100F) but not too hot. (If the water isn't in the right range, it won't activate the yeast.) You might find it helpful to bloom the yeast before putting it in by mixing it in and letting it sit in the warm water for five minutes or so.

I love that bread, it's so yummy. The best gluten-free bread I have ever tasted and now my celiac sister is home from collge my mom makes it twice a week.

Has anyone made this by hand (without bread machine) and if so how did you adapt the process and how long did you allow it to rise and bake?

Many thanks!

This mix is a slight adjustment to one a lot of us use. I have made a similar loaf using my mixer and a loaf pan. We do that when we want to make a lot of sandwiches (we keep a gluten-free home and have five family members). I use 1 1/2 of the recipe. I make it slightly thicker and be sure to allow it to rise till almost double. If it rises too much, it won't rise properly in the oven. It turns out quite nicely. It also works nicely if you divide it in half and use those small pans for party slices.

Thanks Donna. How long should I allow it to rise and bake? And at what temperature?

I'm looking forward to it!

I tried this recipe last night and it turned out great! It's a nice, hearty loaf which is what I like. I made these substitutions:

**Instead of Amaranth flour I used Garbanzo-Fava flour

**Instead of powdered milk, I used 1 cup of powdered buttermilk--this actually made it taste like a sourdough loaf.

**I used Fleishman's Yeast instead of Red Star

I have an older bread machine, so I can't set it for a quick bake cycle. My machine kneaded the bread twice. I'm not sure if this was detrimental or not.

Thanks for the great recipe Debbie and Molly! :D:D:D

IT basicallly means that you get a cup out and just fill it with about equal parts of the 3 florus. If you don't want to do that you can do 1/3 cup of each. My mom just said equal parts because she isn't very precise with how much flours she uses.

Molly,

Any hints for how to make this bread by hand? I am really excited to try it but don't have a bread maker.

Thanks!

Flaxmeal is simply flaxseed that has been ground. You can purchase it already ground or you can grind the seeds yourself. Many people believe the nutritional value is better if you grind the seeds immediately before use. Either way, keep your flax in the freezer to prolong its shelf life and preserve nutrient values.

Pure buckwheat flour is gluten free. Beware of products made with buckwheat flour as many will also contain wheat flour. Bob's Red Mill Buckwheat flour is gluten free.

Yea! Thank you Laurie. I bought some Bob's Red Mill Buck wheat today.

Hello there! I am new to the board. My son is whey, casein, wheat and gluten free. I use ENER-G, pure SoyQuik, as a dry milk substitute and haven't had any problems.

I do have a couple of questions for you or anyone who can help. My bread is always kinda short. I always let it double in size before baking, should I let it rise longer? Also the crust is so dark and is really hard. I bake in a metal,

light colored, non-stick pan and coat with cooking spray and rice flour.

Thanks,

Smittyslick

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
