I used quinoa since I'm not eating oats yet. It came out great! I'm so excited. I haven't had bread for months. Thank you. I just made this – my very first loaf of gluten free bread.

I'm anxious to try it. Where do you purchase the gluten-free oatmeal from? I've had a hard time finding it :). Thanks! I’ve read a couple of great reviews on this bread! I’m anxious to try it.

I thought bread was a thing of the past, then I was blessed to find your website and this bread recipe!! I got THE bread machine, you know, the one with the gluten free cycle, and this was the maiden GF loaf. My whole family, all but one not GF, ALL of them like it more than my wheat bread! I cannot get millet flour here, so I substituted sorghum flour, and it turned out just fine. This will replace whole wheat bread in my home, and subsequently much stress too! You are a God send!

I also wanted to say that I didn't have the right size loaf pan, so I just shaped it like a french loaf and baked it on a cookie sheet. It worked fine this way, and the Bread Gods didn't come down and smite me or anything. :) The wrong shape didn't affect the taste one bit! But I think I will go track down one of those big loaf pans for next time I bake a loaf...tomorrow at the rate we're eating this one! Oops!!

Yum!!! My husband and I love it!!! I substituted agave nectar for the sugar and brown sugar, and I ground up some quinoa in my coffee grinder to make quinoa flour to substitute for oats. I love quinoa - I'm so excited to get protein in my bread!!! Next time I might try finding a way to put in quinoa and gluten free oats, because I love the taste of oats...

Also, size wise it is not large enough for sandwich slices. I noticed many of the ingredients are like Tom's Celiac Light bread-minus the chickpea flour ...do you need to have that much sugar to get the yeast activated? Do you think that adding cream of tartar as Tom does will make it rise more? I also don't want to try the bread with less sugar if that is a factor in the texture. So far, the only bread my daughter like is Delands millet/Rice. We buy it at whole foods. I like the bread alot, but I need to make one that she can use as sandwich bread for school. Maybe if this bread was "less tasty"..if you know what I mean. I have literally tried over 50 gluren free bread recipes, and my daughter says she only like Delands. It is a Bakery in Florida where we live that sells in Whole Foods. I made this bread and as the texture is great, but it is too sweet to use as a sandwich bread.

I bought a new bread maker because my old one was worn out (teflon coating) and the bread kept sticking. Do you have suggestions on how I can use my old bread maker to just mix the dough. I can't tolerate the blade holes when I cook the bread in the breadmaker. I am experimenting as I wrote on just kneading the dough in the machine then letting it rise and baking it in a loaf pan. I am concerned because I mixed the ingredients together and used your recipe, but then kneaded it in the breadmaker. (I usually add the yeast to the dry ingedients on top wehn making bread in the maker. Well, Iw ill see how it comes out..just thought maybe someone had done it this way and has some suggestions. I bought a new breadmaker but it doesn't have a 1 rise cycle that seems to be needed for gluten free bread (and my hubby threw out the box so I can't return it!)

I loved it! I think maybe I am one of those "bitter tasters" and so I'm very sensitive to even slight bitterness, which is how brown rice flour tastes to me. I also combined the yeast water with the egg mixture before adding it to the dry ingredients. I think this may have helped avoid the "chunks" I got yesterday. The dough was wetter, and it rose faster and higher. I still can't believe gluten-free dough can rise! Anyway, thanks so much. You have given me faith in gluten-free bread! Jen UPDATE 2:
