After many years of making all kinds of breads in my bread machine (mostly), we now find my husband needs to be glutten free. Any ideas on recipes? I’ve found rice flour, and I did find a really good recipe for corn bread that doesn’t use any flour (or sugar, which is great because I am a diabetic). Any ideas for glutten free would be appreciated.

Wow, you’ve inspired me to get out that bread machine. I honestly did not trust that I could create a “point” friendly bread now! Thanks!

Hi Iris – Brown rice and oatmeal will add flavor, texture and protein. Brown rice and oat flours are available at many supermarkets. You could also leave the oats whole for even more texture. As for the measurements, you might have to experiment with the specific recipe a little before you find the perfect combination.

Can I grind oatmeal or brown rice into flour to increase the fiber in adition to whole wheat flour replacing white flour? Would I then measure cup for cup?

I have been looking for a sourdough starter recipe. I had a starter for years that I fed it instant potatoes. I would love to get it going again! Thanks

I recently bought a bread machine and would love some healthy recipes for that as well!

I have been making my own bread for 38 years. It definitely took practice, a good mixer, and a well-calibrated oven to evolve the skill, but it is well worth the effort. Now I bake bread once or twice a month, slice and freeze it, and it is just part of life. I would also like to know more about sourdough, including Mary’s recipe, which I have never been successful with.
