Doves White Bread Flour - Sun 30th Sep 2007
I used the Dove White Bread Flour today, as I have just been diagnosed with Celiac Disease, so this is all new to me.
I tried the breadmaker recipe on the pack. But I found that it came out very heavy, almost like a cake.???

What am I doing wrong???

Any help that you can give me would be appreciated.......

Doves Farm Gluten Free Flour Recipe - Mon 21st Jan 2008
I ran out of the flour once so started substituting Gram four for part of it. This is my recipe for a medium loaf in a breadmaker:
In a jug/mixing bowl pour in-

310ml Milk
1 tsp vinegar (any sort but wine vinegar seems to work best)
7 tbsp Olive Oil

Whisk together
Add-
2 whole eggs
2-3 whites

Whisk well and add to bread maker pan.

Add-
2 cups Doves Farm gluten free bread flour
2 cups Chick Pea (Gram) flour (Doves Farm also do this but can get from other sources)
2.5 Tbsp Sugar
2.5 tsp Salt
2.5 tsp fast acting yeast powder (Doves Farm do this). Keep away from the salt.

Turn on Bread maker. After 3 mins, scrape down any dough from the sides of the breadmaker pan.
When breadmaker beeps after about 30-40 mins add sunflower seeds if desired.

Dovesfarm white bread mix - Sat 5th Jan 2008
Allergic to cow's milk and egg white as well as wheat, I substituted rice milk and added egg yolks with 2 tablespoons of water to the flour. It was better than any other recipe recently tried, a bit cakey and dried quickly but made acceptable toast. Next time will try adding Xanthum gum. My kitchen is more like a laboratory these days!!

Finally I have found flour that makes decent bread in my bread machine. I found that it was better to use the gluten free setting on the machine, however, which is a short 2 hour cycle. I experimented with the recipe as suggested on the packet and the normal cycle but it was inedible.

Tips

Add extra Xanthum gum to the mix - Sat 3rd Nov 2007
Hi Tina, you'll need to add at least 6 teaspoons (no less) of Xanthum gum (you can buy it from this site in a 100g tub) as there isn't enough already included in the dove's mix imo! Otherwise the bread won't rise properly and it becomes stodgy & cakey. Just sprinkle over the flour before kneading. Personally I use water instead of the milk suggested in the recipe on the side of the packet. Hope this helps and write back to let us know how you get on. Good luck! G
