Some general notes:
- Always be sure to carefully seat the pan in your bread maker. I’ve seen friends disappointed with the performance of their bread machine only to discover they weren’t properly securing the bread pan.
- Always read your manufacturer instructions. Some bread machines may specify a different order for placing wet or dry ingredients into the machine’s pan.
- IMPORTANT: Unless specified otherwise, don’t let the yeast touch the sides of the breakmaker pan or reach the liquid. I create a small, shallow volcano whole for the yeast within the dry ingredients.
Some standard variations to keep in mind:
- Instead of three eggs, try using one egg plus two egg whites. For more leavening, add 1 to 3 teaspoons of egg replacer.
- You might also use our gluten substitutions page as a reference when using these recipes or other recipes you find on the Internet. You might just concoct your own perfect recipe from the methods described therein to substitute gluten in standard bread recipes.
Understanding what is gluten and how it can affect your baking will help you improve your gluten free baking skills and help you achieve greater success in the kitchen.
