Egg Free Bread Too Dry


Chef16

Recommended Posts

Chef16 Apprentice

I'm trying to perfect a gluten free and egg free bread recipe. It's perfect except for the moisture content. I don't want to add to much water or the top of the loaf will collapse as it cools. Right now i'm using Ener-G egg replacer. Any suggestions on balancing moisture without the top sinking in? Would using flax gel work better? Would adding more xanthan gum counteract more water?

I have the same problem. The only bread that comes out well is the zucchini bread listed here under the recipe section. I use ground flax instead of the eggs.

One of our posters here, for her buckwheat bread, perfected it by adding some baking powder as well as the yeast. This bread does, however, have eggs, but the trick might work for non-egg bread too.

Bette Hagman's gluten-free Caraway Soda Bread does not have eggs. It does call for 1 cup of sour cream, though, if you can tolerate that. It is delicious and comes out perfectly everytime.

What kind of gluten free flours or nut meals are you using ?

What recipe ?

Remember, Rice- Tapioca is the Hockey Puck of Champions. :P

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
