NON wheat sandwich bread

[Carol G.]

Am looking for recipe's for a good sandwich style bread that does not have any wheat flour in it. The family is not too fond of nutritionless white bread either. Any suggestions???

For wheat-free recipes the Celiac/GF forum could be very helpful.

There is a thread on GF baking in the Breads and Baking Forum that might be of interest to you, http://www.food.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=382924

I know this particular bread has been highly rated, Gluten-Free Flax Bread
.

If WHEAT is the problem, and not gluten, spelt flour is one of the best substitutes. It has more protein and a more tender gluten, so it rises and proofs a bit more quickly. It is also more responsive to moisture, so it helps to start with about 1/8th less volume of water, and add more if needed, by the tablespoon.
If you're curious about it and want more details reply in this thread and I'll get back to you. Generally Bob's Red Mill spelt flour can be found in many groceries.

If you do not want to spend the time baking, you can buy excellent gluten free breads at an organic supermarket. I like the dark bread with pecan bits, myself.

Thank you for your suggestion. That looks like a bread. I have the recipe saved and hope to give it a try this coming week.
