wheat free recipes

[Puffin]

Can anyone help me with a good wheat free recipe for bread. I realise it won't ever be the same as wheat based bread, but i am sure that it is not supposed to be as revolting as i am making it!

The Terence Stamp range of wheat free flour has a recipe on the back which I used successfully.

Any chance that you can remember it? my packet has a recipe for pastry but no bread.Thank you anyway, perhaps i will try to get a copy of the T Stamp book from the library or sneak a peek in the book shop!

I don't have the recipe anymore , sorry, but if you cut and paste this link it should help you. www.stamp-collection.co.uk/products/index.htm#EASY PASTA MIX

I know it says pasta but there is a bread section too!

Puffin - try these sites:

www.purr.demon.co.uk/Food/Wheatfree.html
www.dietaryspecialties.co.uk/

I have a friend who has coeliac disease and has quite a restricted diet - I know she has found some great recipes on the web.

thanks lou33,the Stamp site is excellent and has some great ideas and news about bread that looks like the bread we eat. Hope then that my 18mth old will eat it instead of stealing her sisters' whaet variety!Will try the other sites aswell,thanks alot.

Glad to help puffin.

We make great wheat free muffins in our house - 1 cup millet flour, 1 cup of ground almonds mix in one bowl, binding agent of melted butter/olivio/marg/almond oil, around 2 tbs and sweetner of honey/sugar syrup/brown sugar, again around 2 tbs, then add whatever fruit you like eg 3 mashed bananna or 2 grated apples or pears or blueberries, orange segments and cranberries etc... melt butter and add sweetner, add fruit to the pan, mix it through, add to dry flours. Sorry this is quite vague, but I do it so often I dont really know the quantities. Just play around with it. If it is not runny enough (each fruit makes for a different consistency), add some milk (dairy or soya work). I have served these to many people who have no idea they are wheat free. If you are not sensitive to baking powder you can add a heaped tsp. Also, if you are only sensitive to gluten, rather than alergic, spelt flour is a very good substitute for wheat flour, not gluten free, but tends not to cause reactions. Again, substitute spelt flour for the millet flour.

I was just reading the "Posting for help/advice & not acknowledging" thread and decided to check for things I've missed and found thi thread. At first I wondered what I had said to make my post be deleted, then thought about what website I would have recommended here. There used to be a website with dairy/egg/gluten free recipes that I liked. It folded and it seems a soft porn site is at that address now.

If anyone had the misfortune to click through to that site, I'm so so sorry. (I'm assuming that's what happened. It gave me a shock!) Anyway.... off to keep checking although I feel a bit shaken now.
