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

      I have had celiac for many years and still had terrible digestion. I cook from scratch, never eat anything with gluten ( A Gut that needs special attention seems to affect many who suffer from celiac) .  I made my own Kombucha, it helped my Gut much more than the yogurt I made but I still had issues. Water Kefir did nothing. As a last resort I made MILK Kefir and it has really started healing my Gut. It has been about 2 months now and I am doing so much better. It was trial and error getting the right PH in the Kefir ferment that agreed with my stomach, too little ferment, too much, I finally hit the right one for me. Milk Kefir has the most probiotics than any of the other. I can't find my notes right now but there are at least 30 probiotics in Kefir, Kombucha has about 5-7 and yogurt around 3 if I recall correctly.  I wish you all the best, I know how frustrating this condition can be.

      @cristiana Hi, thank you so much, I will look into those books for sure! And get bloodwork at my next appointment. I have never been told I have TMJ, but I have seen information on it and the nerve issue while googling this devil plague in my mouth. Thank you so much for the advice!

      Peanut Butter cookies - on the crisp side.   approx 20 smallish cookies  1 C  plus 2 tblsp rounded. 'natural' peanut butter ( the kind you have to stir to blend the PB & oils)....  I know, it's a pain!! 1/2 c granulated sugar ....plus 2 tblsp dark brown sugar 1/4 c olive oil... plus 1 tblsp 1 large egg .....and 1 tsp vanilla 2 tsp cinnamon - optional but is yummy with the PB mix the above.  In another bowl mix the following dry ingredients: 1 cup brown rice flour  ( I use this  flour as it leaves no yucky after taste in my cookies & lb cakes..... and coffee cake, I buy it at the "Bulk Barn" here in Canada....... states side try health food stores??? I'm not sure where you can buy bulk food that also carries gluten free flours. 1/2 tsp baking soda.....1/4 tsp salt   (I use the pink sea salt) Mix well or sift, then mix with wet ingredients. heat oven to 350f, line baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll about 2 tblsp dough between your hands, place on cookie sheet and press down  with a fork.   The flatter the cookie the crispier it is.     Bake 13-14 min  When done leave on baking sheet till cool. Cheers, Florence
