Using Sourdough Starter with some commercial yeast Recipe?

June 27, 2021 - 2:09pm -- breadmaking

Hi fresh Loaf team

I finally managed to put together a gluten free sourdough starter (just added GF flour to the regular SD and kept adding the same until it progressed)

Now I would like to make bread / buns with this starter using GF flour like chickpea or sorghum flour.

Would appreciate if you could guide me. The bread does not rise, is there a recipe which uses SD along with a pinch of commercial yeast or any other.

The Quest for Keto Baguettes

April 4, 2021 - 5:57am -- n1ks

I've been on Keto for almost a year, and if there's one thing that I really miss, it's a good crusty French Baguette.

 

I think it's really awesome that we have access to so many alternative ingredients now and different keto bread recipes, but the one that I just couldn't get a recipe or find or buy, was a freakin' Keto Baguette.

 

And so, my quest started to recreate a keto version of this elusive French bread.

Baking with fruit flour and with tallow?

December 6, 2020 - 9:21am -- Qatlvr1

I am trying to learn how to bake with fruit flour and/or vegetable flour, but also tallow for a friend of mine who has pre-diabetes, wants to eat carbs, and wants to increase long chain fats in his diet.

he has bought tigernut, banana, pumpkin, breadfruit, and coconut flours. I am not allowed to use wheat flour. I am not allowed to use nut flowers. I am allowed to use either butter, butter oil (clarified butter plus stearic acid plus MCT oil), or tallow.

GF Cinnamon Rolls

December 5, 2020 - 11:32am -- HeiHei29er

Have been trying my first few loaves of SD bread and felt bad that my gluten sensitive daughter couldn't partake in the sampling.  So, made her a batch of her favorite cinnamon rolls this morning.  The recipe is adapted from this one.  I make a half batch at a time (6 rolls).  https://joyfoodsunshine.com/cinnamon-rolls-recipe/

Cinnamon Roll Dough

124g Skim Milk

155g Domata 1-for-1 Exchange GF Flour (adjust amounts as needed for your own GF flour blend)

65g Bob's GF Oat Flour

How to get a feathery vegan panettone

October 30, 2020 - 4:58pm -- amandaharumi

I'm trying to make a vegan panettone with natural yeast, but i only got a small and tight holes and not very shreaddable. I'm using Martino Beria's recipe, translating with google translate which might not be very correspondent. His panettones photo looks amazing and i really wanted to get something similar as i can't find a really good vegan panettone to buy near me.
