Gluten Free Bread?

On my gluten free adventure, I haven't had very many options for bread. I picked up a couple of mixes from Chebe. They are gluten free, dairy free, soy free, rice free, pretty much everything free!! I was skeptical.

I made my first mix this weekend. It was for a flat bread. Oh yum!!
















I topped it with sauteed onions, garlic and chard. It was so delicious!! I will definitely be making this again. It does require 2 eggs, but I have those!

Even Dave approved. His comment was, "How is this not bread?". Ha! I had to tell him that it is bread, just no gluten.

Bonus: I even messed up on the directions and it worked out! I think that the key to this bread is to knead the dough really well.

I can't wait to try my next mix from Chebe!

Trader Joe's makes gluten free pancakes in the freezer section. Very good!

You and I have similar allergies and I wanted to let you know that I have developed gluten free sourdough recipes around these food allergies. I have combined old fashioned sourdough techniques with gluten free seed and grain flours and have come up with excellent, delicious breads, muffins and pancakes.

They are also free of dairy, eggs, soy, yeast, sweeteners, gums and baking powder. Very suitable for sensitive digestions.

I have posted a free download of the starter recipe plus pancake recipe:

This type of baking takes some time to understand and master so it will not be for everyone. With planning it doesn't have to be time consuming. For people able to take the time it's well worth it as the breads are tasty, easy to digest and have an extremely long shelf life!

My complete, and continually growing recipe book, Art of Gluten Free Sourdough Baking, is available in pdf and print form on my website, www.food-medicine.com
Good Luck and Eat Well!
