Description

"From sandwich slices to artisan multi-grain loaves, Roberts gives you guidelines and recipes for creating wheatless wonders with your bread machine." -Gluten Free & More Bread may be the staff of life, but if it contains gluten it can trigger an allergic reaction, and even provoke serious digestive disorders like celiac disease. Consumers who love bread but must avoid gluten have long been at the mercy of mediocre products and high prices. With this timely cookbook, they can have their bread and eat it, too. Acclaimed author Analise Roberts developed these simple, foolproof recipes for the Zojirushi bread machine. Roberts' outstanding recipes range from simple and satisfying Basic Sandwich Bread to complex and scrumptious Golden Italian Bread with Raisins and Fennel. She also offers ethnic breads like Challah and Babka and seasonal delights such as the irresistible Holiday Breakfast Bread. Included are loaves, like Sundried Tomato Roasted Garlic Bread, that contain no eggs or dairy products.… (more)

One of the hardest things to make gluten-free is bread. So far I've baked Oatmeal Sandwich Bread and it has a delicious flavor but is somewhat crumbly in texture. I used all the correct ingredients and measures. My bread machine is older and not the one the author uses. My machine makes a larger,

more standard size loaf. For gluten-free breads, I suspect a machine that makes a smaller, thinner loaf may work better. When the bread was warm, I handled it too roughly perhaps -- had trouble getting it to release from the pan. Once cooled, it could be sliced but still had a crumbly texture.

There are tips on buying, storing and measuring gluten-free flours and just one flour mixture that works for all the recipes in the book. Each recipe then has other ingredients.

I don't have celiac disease and am trying gluten-free because I want to. Buying gluten-free baked goods is expensive and they have added chemicals/ingredients to maintain freshness. I'll add more comments as I read more and use more recipes.
