Food Friday – King Arthur Gluten-Free Bread

I use to be a fan of King Arthur products when I was able to eat gluten. Their products are very good quality, so when my sister saw that they had Gluten-Free products in her local grocery I was super excited. I went online and ordered some different kinds, since they weren’t in my grocery store yet. But they are now. Anyways, the first one I tried was the bread.

I did not use an electric mixer as the box recommends, because I do not own one. But the strength of an arm worked just fine. I also went with the oil option and used veggie oil. The bread was quite good. The crust was a little harder than I care for, but inside was good. The center was nice and moist. Being gluten-free it was different, but still enjoyable.

The downfall with any gluten free bread is they don’t last as long as regular bread. So I think I might split the dough up next time and buy some small bread pans so I can make a more manageable amount. After all, the husband won’t eat most gluten free products.

  1. Glad the bread worked for you. If you are nearing the end of its life you can always cut it up and toast it and make croutons or stuffing. Or put it in the food processor and make breads crumbs and make you some coated chicken or something.

  2. I'm so glad you're having success with gluten-free baking. King Arthur products aren't readily available here, in any formula.

  3. I haven't tried the King Arthur products yet, but the bread looks good! I always end up freezing my GF baked goods, and then toasting later. Glad the bread worked for you!
