Gluten free bread

[Synny667]

Does anyone have a super simple gluten free bread recipe or recommend gluten free mixes??? It is getting to the season of sandwiches for me. I don't like store bought bread cause it usually tastes funny to me and there are very few that don't put eggs in the bread.

The Rudi's brand is vegan. I see it a lot but I haven't tried it. You can go here to see where to buy it in your area:

I've done a bit of gluten free baking for cookies and muffins, but not yeasted breads - sorry I'm not more help there.

I found a few on the internet, but since I haven't tried them I can't vouch for their success:

As with most gluten-free baking, they require a mix of different flours and xantham gum and what-not, so depending on what you have already it might be a bit expensive to acquire all of the ingredients.

I am starting out with nothing. Have only been eating rice and oats but am missing sandwiches. Plus with hiking season here pb & js work better for on the run

Yeah, a lot of gluten free baking is an investment initially, as a mix of flours really works best. Bob's Red Mill makes a pre-mixed bag of gluten-free flours, I don't know how well it works in sandwich bread though.

The gf vegan frozen breads I have found are look freezer burned. Being gf sucks!

My wife and I are GF, here is a good one. http://www.glutenfreecookingschool.com/ ... ich-bread/

I have only cooked it in the oven and not the bread machine. It stays in the fridge for a couple of days, then we freeze it

Ok can you explain what xantham gum is for?? And is it really necessary?

[vegimator]

Xanthan gum is a powerful binder and it is very often necessary in gf vegan baking.

Guess I will have to bite the bullet and and buy what is needed slowly

I have a gluten allergy(skin problems) so I stay away from anything processed(ugh, i love tortilla chips though) and anything even coming close to having gluten. One little bit of gluten or cross contamination and I feel it within minutes and proof is shown.

Bob's red mills have lots of gluten free bread, brownie, cookie, etc mixes. Also, Whole Foods/EarthFare should also carry these AND already made gluten-free breads(youll have to look).
