agie Joined: 09/06/10 Posts: 27	gluten free vegan bread Posted Monday, September 6, 2010 at 5:31 PM Hi everyone! I have been making the transition to vegan for about 3 months now. I have slowly but surely taken meat and dairy out of my diet. The only thing left is the egg in my bread products. I have Celiac Disease and therefore cannot have products like Ezekiel (other than their fabulous english muffins) and I was wondering what everyone does to ensure that their bread does not contain animal products, especially those that are gluten free? Any help would be so great because this is the LAST step for me! Thanks!

I think it was called Food for Life. It was pretty good! Susan Levin, MS, RD PCRM Director of Nutrition Education

We buy Pamelas GF Bread Mix and I replace the eggs with Ener-g Egg Replacer, it comes in a powder. When I make cookies I usually use flaxseed(use 1T. flaxseed to 3T. of water to equal 1 egg blend it in blender until thick. I was just told yesterday by a mom that The Pure Pantry GF mixes are wonderful too, she uses that for her daughter. I hope this helps some. www

I do not have a mixer nor a bread machine and I am looking for mixes that I can make my own bread with, without needing to buy the extra machinery (I am planning to do it down the road, but right now I have other things to buy!)

I also use Pamela's, Amazon has great bulk pricing. I use the 1 T flaxseed meal to 3T water and for the oil I use coconut. It is great. I mix it, let it raise and then bake. Yummy stuff. I too have Celiac Disease. Let me know if you have any other questions I can help with. I am a 20-year vegetarian and have spent more than 1/2 of it on and off vegan. On for life now though!

Just make sure to MIX WELL if you are using just arm power and a spoon! I think this is also good with oats or sunflower seeds sprinkled on top. The coconut oil adds a fantastic aroma and a nice subtle flavor as well. Always offer kindness and a soft word to the beings around you; You do not know their journey.
