Product Description
A breakthrough bread book by the unchallenged expert in gluten-free and wheat-free cooking
In Bette Hagman's three earlier cookbooks, she worked with gluten-free flours that are safe for celiacs (those who are intolerant to gluten) and for those with wheat allergies to create recipes for great- tasting food. Knowing from her own hard-earned experience that bread is the greatest loss for those who can't eat wheat, oats, rye, or barley, she has experimented with exciting new bean-based flours and has devoted an entire book to breads. Here are yeast breads, yeast-free breads, muffins, rolls, buns, breakfast breads, and crackers-a vast array of recipes for the oven or the bread machine-for people who cannot buy breads at a bakery or supermarket but must rely on their own kitchens to provide the staff of life.
Along with dozens of great recipes are: a beginner's guide to understanding and cooking with gluten-free flours; answers to commonly asked questions about baking with these flours; and a source list of where to buy gluten-free baking supplies.

 Great cookbook
I have made my first loaf of bread with one of the recipes in this book. It was delicious. I am looking forward to making other items in the book.

 Holt should know better ( antiquesonmichigan )
This book is not recommended for so many reasons. I wish that I had returned it within the time allowed. It has no table of contents. The information in it is poorly organized, vague, and in many ways, out of touch with allergy problems. There are sections of appetizing lists of better sounding recipes which are only references from other books by the author and are not in the book at all.
I bought all the ingredients at a staggering sum and made the basic flour and a basic bread. It looked beautiful! It sank like a Souffle. It tasted weird, made me sick, and turned into a glue like lump. I was surprised that the raccoons ate it. I have since found wonderful recipes online and much much better writing about allergy alternatives including the economic and practical option of making my own rice flour. I cannot imagine why anyone would buy this woman's books. Aside from learning to live with celiac, her knowledge of food is like something out of 1950's Betty Crocker. Don't get depressed allergy sufferers. There's far better resources!

Awesome Real Bread
The bagels are so good, even my gluten-eating children want them. This is the closest to the real thing that I've seen or made. Well worth the time.

My 1st Successful GF Loaf ( eilenej1 )
I'm new to baking bread, and especially new to GF. We're not celiac's, but DS has a mild wheat allergy. Doc says he can have gluten periodically, but it would be best to avoid it when possible. I've tried a few store bought loaves, none of which he really liked. And I've tried a few misc recipes here & there, but they all flopped terribly. Using Bette's Four Flour Bread recipe in this book, I made my first successful loaf today. It wasn't perfect, but it was edible and tasted pretty good.

Great Book for Making Bread and MORE! ( c_herbel_greenwald )
What I love about this book is that the main recipes can be modified to produce different types of bread (e.g. carrot, lemon poppy seed, etc.) and many start with the same basic stuff. So I made a huge batch of the basic recipe and divided the dry ingredients into 12 (can be different for various recipes) and have made two types of bread while putting the other 10 packages in ziplocks stored in the refrigerator until I am ready to make another loaf. I also enjoy the fact that you can easily adapt the recipes to a bread making machine...life is so much easier for me this way. In addition to the basic and varieties of bread (yeast based), there are non-yeast breads, and other items normally found with a flour base. I have yet to try some of those, but will soon. Being a Type I (insulin dependent) diabetic plus celiac limits my carb intake, so dividing the recipes is the best way to go in order to control my blood sugars...just wish my husband would eat gluten-free products with me as we now buy groceries for two different diets even more so now. Some may say the ingredients are costly, but in order to have better health I feel this is worth the extra effort in order to make the best tasting gluten-free products...but I do miss my wheat bread. Ah well, this book has provided me with more options than I ever thought possible.
