Being somewhat lazy I opted to buy some frozen Glutino flax bread. OMG this is the most, vile tasteless thing I've ever put in my mouth.

After that I decided to try to make my own but I didn't really want to commit to buying a whole bunch of flours so I bought this premix stuff, Gluten Free Pantry White Sandwich bread mix.

I was quite surprised but the few pieces I had were very tasty and I really could see myself eating (and enjoying) this. My only problems with it were this:

-small loaf (made in bread maker)
-the top totally caved in to almost the middle of the loaf
-there was still dry mix on the bottom corners where it never mixed properly

What happened? Would I have better luck mixing everything up with my mixer before hand and just pop it in the oven?

Unless your bread maker has a GF setting it will not properly bake your bread.

If it were me, I would use the mixer and bake it in the reg. oven.

Here are some problems in the process that can make a loaf cave in the middle:

Too much liquids in the mix.
Yeast loaf rising too much or too quickly.


I am glad that you found a pre-mix that you like!

Thanks MrsP that's what I thought. My next loaf will be in the oven. Smile
