Help Picking Gluten Free Bread Mix


kotsu

Recommended Posts

I've been looking for a good gluten free bread mix but have not been able to find a good one. Can someone recommend a good gluten-free mix?

My body's pretty picky. Here are some of the things I'm looking for in a gluten-free bread mix:

  • No inulin / chicory root extract: Gives me tons of gas for days (usually used to add fiber to the bread)
  • No evaporated cane sugar: This gives me tons of gas as well. Sends the candida out of control. I'd prefer to find a mix where I have to add the sugar.
  • Decent amount of fiber: At least 4% Dailly Value. I hate brands with 0% fiber.
  • Easily/moderately digestible: This kind of goes with fiber. I hate brands that give you a hard loaf at the end. I prefer soft, moist bread.
  • Decent taste: Of course, I'd like the bread to taste good.
  • Yeast Free (optional): Would be nice if it was yeast free but it isn't a deal breaker.

I've only tried two bread mixes...Bob's Red Mill Wonderful Homemade Bread, which I found not to be so wonderful and their Cinnamon Raisin Bread, also not wonderful (for my taste at least).

Have you thought of starting from scratch? I'm still searching for a "go to" recipe but at least you get to control the ingredients if you find out that avoids the ingredients you don't want to use.

Have you checked out any of the Gluten Free Pantry mixes? Udi's ready made is free of all that you name if you want a ready made bread. Pamela's Baking mix is also a possiblity at least for biscuits and such. I also like Tom Sawyer flour mix but you would add your own rising agent.

I gave up on the store bought bread and bread mixes. I visited this link Open Original Shared Linkand made the Multi Grain Sandwich Bread. I have tweaked the recipe in many ways, but the recipe is pretty good just as it is. She also has lots of suggestions about making a successful loaf. One tip. Always make sure the bread is baked to 205 degrees or it will be gummy inside.

I make several batches of the dry ingredients (my own "mix") at one time so all I have to do is gather the wet ingredients when I want to make a loaf. It keeps well in the fridge for a full week. When it is first baked it is good without toasting, then starting the next day I always toast it.

Ditto for the inulin and chicory. Owwwww!!!!

      I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this—chronic neuropathic or nociplastic pain can be incredibly frustrating, especially when testing shows no nerve damage. It’s important to clarify for readers that this type of central sensitization pain is not the same thing as ongoing gluten exposure, particularly when labs, biopsy, and nutritional status are normal. A stocking/glove pattern with normal nerve density points toward a pain-processing disorder rather than active celiac-related injury. Alcohol temporarily dampening symptoms likely reflects its central nervous system depressant effects, not treatment of an underlying gluten issue—and high-dose alcohol is dangerous and not a safe or sustainable strategy. Seeing a pain specialist is absolutely the right next step, and we encourage members to work closely with neurology and pain management rather than assuming hidden gluten exposure when objective testing does not support it.

      There is no credible scientific evidence that standard water filters contain gluten or pose a gluten exposure risk. Gluten is a food protein from wheat, barley, or rye—it is not used in activated carbon filtration in any meaningful way, and refrigerator or pitcher filters are not designed with food-based binders that would leach gluten into water. AI-generated search summaries are not authoritative sources, and they often speculate without documentation. Major manufacturers design filters for water purification, not food processing, and gluten contamination from a water filter would be extraordinarily unlikely. For people with celiac disease, properly functioning municipal, bottled, filtered, or distilled water is considered gluten-free.

      Bottled water, filtered water, distilled water, and products like Gatorade are naturally gluten-free and do not contain gluten unless contaminated during manufacturing, which would be highly unlikely and subject to labeling laws. Gluten is a protein from wheat, barley, or rye—it is not present in water, minerals, plastics, phosphates, bicarbonate, or electrolytes. Refrigerator filters and reverse osmosis systems are not sources of gluten, and there is no credible scientific evidence that distilled or purified water triggers celiac reactions. If someone experiences symptoms after drinking a specific product, it is far more likely due to individual sensitivities, anxiety around exposure, or unrelated health factors—not gluten in water.

      Water does not contain gluten--bottled water included. This is an official warning that you'll receive a warning if you continue to push this idea. Gatorade is naturally gluten-free as well, and it's purified water does not include gluten. You can see all sort of junk on the Internet--that does not mean it is true.

      An interesting note (though not something that I recommend) is that in the last couple of winters before this one, I drank tons of alcohol because I found it reveresed the pain substantially. It seemed it muted it, then I stopped worrying about it, and so on, so that it was reversing the sensitization cycle. I mean, strong alcohol. Not a few beers. Talking 25% ABV stuff and well beyond any limit anyone has ever seen. Yes, bad for other reasons. But it was interesting, that even after stopping the alcohol (which I could do overnight, for some reason I don't get dependent) the nerve pain would stay "low" for a while, but then gradually ramp up again to where it was before. Obviously, that's not a long term solution as my liver would probably shrivel up and I'd go broke. So the pain clinic hopefully finds a better way to desensitize the condition.
