Need White Bread Recipe


AnnieMarie

Recommended Posts

AnnieMarie Apprentice

Hello Everyone,

As the start of school is quickly approaching, I am still nervous about being able to provide a satifactory lunch for my son.

I know that I can pack things like Hormal Chilli, and Dinty Moore beef stew, but my 12 yr. old leaves for school about 7:15 and does not return home again untill 4:45- 5:00. He plays soccer after school.

The truth is making a cold lunch that includes a sandwich is not only easier it is also what my son is going to preferr.

I have tried a lot of bread reipes (I don't own a bread machine ,yet) but they all seem to end up with that same "texture". Somehow no matter what flours I seem to use I don't know how to achieve the "pliability" that white bread has.

My sons favorite sandwich is peanut butter, no jelly. He has taken it almost every day for 2 yrs. Talk about a food jag!!!!!! If I tried this on the current gluten free breads that would be a very dry sandwich, also if it had to be toasted I can't see it holding up untill school lunch time.

A friend of mine I met here gave me a great hamburger and hot dog roll recipe that me and my son are very pleased with, so I am hoping to get lucky with a bread recipe.

:( Oh, hey, this is a tough one. I find I can't make anything as good as my local bakery makes and they won't give me the recipe! But have you tried the cornstarch bread in the Bette Hagman book? It's good for one day....very soft and "wonder bread" like. And it can be made with a regular hand mixer from easy to find ingredients. After the first day though, you have to freeze it. I then nuke it for 20 seconds and slather on my peanut butter at work. Not so easy for your son.

I really hope someone answers this call and posts a good recipe. I'm just as desperate!

Would you be willing to post your hamburger/hotdog bun recipe? ;)

Hey, My son eats pb sandwiches almost exclusively as well! He can't stand jelly. I know you said you've tried gluten-free breads and weren't happy with them, but I have to tell you... We use the kinnikinnick white tapioca rice breads and they are fine. Not only fine, but very good. I lightly toast them in the morning, make the sandwiches put them in a baggie. My 10 year old has been taking turkey, lettuce, mayo sandwiches to camp all summer on Kinnikinnick and says it's great. I like the kinnikinnick bread because it's thin enough to bite through, and large enough to make a filling sandwich on. For my 7 year old son, I usually make a half a sandwich and suppliment with fruit, pretzels, etc. I cannot stress enough that this bread has made my life completely easy now. I'd still be struggling with this diet if I didn't have this bread. For a weird sandwich idea, my daughter likes the Lifestream buckwheat wildberry waffles with peanut butter and jelly. I haven't sent that concoction to school, so I don't know how it would hold up...but a waffle sandwich is an idea you may not have considered...for obvious reasons. :blink:

Thanks for the posts, but I have tried the kinnikinnik bread and he does not like that one either. I find it to be very good, but it is not like your ordinary wonder bread.

He will eat the homemade breads when they come out of the oven and are still warm, after that he does not like the smell or the taste.

No Sandra I do not own that book but it must be very good, I see a lot of people referring to it.

I will get that recipe to you as soon as possible, I have 2 children leaving for college this week . Our lives are crazy right now :blink: You will be impressed because the rolls turn out similiar to what you were used to pre celiac. They are soft and freeze well.

:) Thank you! I would appreciate it, especially if they freeze. I will forward you the cornstarch bread recipe so you can try it once atleast and see if it does the trick. It's my favorite PB & J recipe. Sandra

I tried the Gluten Free Pantry's Sandwich Bread and it wasn't bad. It's MUCH better than their French Bread. My aunt made a loaf of this in her bread machine, hollowed out the inside, filled with ham, turkey, roast beef, swiss, tomatoes, onions, peppers and Italian dressing, put the top back on, wrapped it up and we took it on a picnic when our hubbys went fishing. We just sliced out big hunks of it. It was quite good.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
