Different Flours

[bratcat]

I am using rice flour for my breakfast breads.I want to know if you absolutely have to use rice flour or can you use another flour in its place.For instance,if a recipe calls for x amount of rice flour and x amount of tapioca flour,can I use a different flour in place of the rice flour?I just cannot get accustomed to the "sandy" feel of rice flour.Are there any recipes for bread that do not call for rice flour?

hi,

yes you can use other flours, I use almond meal alot for bread in my bread machine a much moister bread, I also use the sweet rice flour instead of the tapioca, others use others , .

I found a list of the diffrent flours , their properties, some are starchy ect. then interchange

you can use bean flours, small amounts , strong flavor ect

I cant remember just where I found the list , but it was one of the gluten free sites.

I just google then put in gluten free or rice flours or gluten free breads ect

you will get tons of responses.

hope this has helped gl

I used to bake a lot before celiac disease. Now I have fun experimenting with different flours and binders and such. Soy flour makes a very tender bread product. I use some rice as an extender - it's much cheaper than some of the others. Potato flour is very dry. Since most experiments are edible, write down what you do as you go along so if it's a success you can repeat it or if you want to tweak it some more you have a good starting point. Have fun!!
