Gluten free recipes
Gluten free breads are yeast leavened breads,
where Gluten a protein part of the wheat (also
found in Oats, Barley and Rye) is removed.
People who cannot tolerate Gluten in their diet
(known as Coeliacs) can obtain this flour on
prescription. It is found in most high street chemists
and health food stores, it is expensive!
Belling has developed these recipes using one
particular brand ‘ Nutricia Glutafin’ Gluten free white
flour mix and fibre mix. Other brands have not been
tested therefore Belling cannot list these brands.
Contact the Belling Helpline (0870 060 2609) for
further recipes when available.
The bread is excellent on the day it is made, but
with all Gluten free breads when one day old or
more it will need ‘refreshing’. 2 slices placed in a
microwave for 10-15 seconds will usually do this.
Any remaining fresh bread can be frozen for
storage. To store Gluten free bread (or any bread)
slice the bread, re-assemble the slices back
together, wrap the assembled loaf in aluminium foil
and place it in a plastic bag. Store in the freezer
until required. The slices will ‘snap’ apart when
required and quickly thaw, use the microwave if
required.
