Gluten Free Bread Baking

My demonstration on how I make bread. I made this in response to jackospacko's bread making vid but he took it down so I'll go solo on this.

No true recipe here, I just proportion the ingredients as I see fit and I haven't had a bad loaf.

I really like this video - I have tried some ready made gluten free flour for bread, but I don't like the taste of it, as it's mostly chick peas and beans and it doesn't rise very well. Thanks - I will try some of these tips.

@AletaRoberge1 Thanks. I like experimenting with different ingredients and I hope you do too. I have been trying active yeast and letting the dough rise for about 4 hours. It turn out a little bit lighter. Also, I have found to powdery rice flour that is not as course as mine and have been using about a cup to substitute for the rice I mill.

i have 3 children that can not have gluten,oats,nuts,corn,sugar,da­iry,soy,egg, so you know how very limited i am in preparing meals for my kids, so my ? to you is can i substitute hemp for the buckwheat to get the a higher protein& since my kids can not have any sugar what can i substitute for the honey? that is if you know any suggests will surely help me be a better cook for my kids since most of the time they refuse to eat my meals i feel very bad that i can not satisfied there taste buds

@domaro3 sure. try as many substitutes as you wish. you may need to experiment with the ratios to get a better bread and less of a "cake". Try more molasses and without honey.

I tried a glutenfree recipe using a bread machine: 1/2 cup goat milk + 1 egg + 2.25 cups chia flour + 1.5 tb stevia, kerrygold butter, 1tsp salt + 0.5 pkt Red Star Active Yeast

Unfortunately, it failed to rise, and looked like rabbit droppings! I'm thinking that all the milk was quickly absorbed by the chia flour powder causing it to be too dry and not mix properly in the bread machine.

Should I double the milk/yeast? If it works, I plan to ultimately add .3 cup mashed purple sweet potato!

This is a great video on gf bread making! I wanted to recommend an awesome all purpose gluten free flour blend if you don't have time to supplement like in the video. Dakota Prairie, a new gluten free facility that is dedicated and certified is now selling 3 different blends that are all awesome! They have white, millet blend and one with sorghum and all three make great bread. Check them out with a google search of dakota Prairie

@ldj15cs, Many people actually have a food intolerance (or even allergy) to corn products and do not realize it. And today's wheat is not cultivated in the same same wheat that people were eating 10,000 years ago and could survive upon. You should do some research...read a book entitled 'Eat Right for Your Type', which outlines the foods each blood type should/should not consume. I do not digest things like chicken and corn, and once I cut them out, I felt MUCH better.

@domaro3, Have you looked into using xylitol for your children? It's an awesome substitute for sugar, comes granulated, and tastes like a sugar, except cleaner because it is all natural. I've used it in muffins, pies, cobblers, a few breads (but if making a yeast bread, you still must use a little honey or molasses to activate the yeast), and pretty much everything I'd use sugar in. It' not cheap though, so it's not something you'd use everyday if you were baking in bulk. HTH
