Wow! I don’t like to gab on about breads but naturally all GF eaters seem to obsess about finding the perfect GF bread. There are many who claim to have the best recipe which inevitably contains all sorts of odd flours and starches. Ultimately I do not desire to keep all those odd items in my kitchen’s pantry stock because they go bad quickly and bread is simply not one of those food items I care enough about to pay good money for those items necessary to make it homemade. Call me whatever names you like, I won’t change my mind.
Let’s look back at one of my favorite posts recently where my delightful hubby splurged on a GF breadmaker for me. (Isn’t he the best??!?!) Part of that purchase included some Bob’s Mill GF Bread Mix – not just any mix, mind you. It was the GF Hearty Whole Grain Bread Mix and WOW you will enjoy this bread. My husband greatly desired that I make homemade-ish bread that we could both eat and enjoy. This bread actually tastes great and has the hearty goodness of a traditional whole grain bread. Best of all, it does not appear to spike hubby’s blood sugar – which is important for all those diabetics out there.
[...] Alas, it was not meant to be. At least right now in my life. I instead satisfy my need to bake with my lovely breadmaker instead. One note for all, I have discovered that my perfect little GF Breadmaker, does not cook GF bread mixes very well on the GF cycle. Strange, I know. Instead, I put Bob’s Red Mill on the Whole Wheat cycle and it turns out perfect every time. (No idea why.) It still works better than the last 2 breadmakers and I happily put out 1 or 2 loaves each week for sandwiches. Imagine that! ME! Eating sandwiches on a regular basis. (I love it best toasted with butter….mmmmmmmmmm) [...]
