Buckwheat Cinnamon Raisin Bread (gluten-free, vegan, nut-free, xanthan gum-free)


Today I wanted to part a recipe from my Nourishing Meals cookbook amongst you—another kneadable gluten-free bread! Creating a recipe for kneadable gluten-free (and xanthan gum-free) breadstuff took me years too years to develop.

I however recollect walking into my oldest daughter’s showtime calendar week of preschool. The scent of freshly baked spelt rolls wafting throughout the solid similar a sweetness perfume pervades my memory. My immature adult woman took nifty aid inwards carefully kneading each ball of dough into the shapes of her desire. The warm rolls were ever served amongst raw dear too butter. All calendar week she looked forrard to breadstuff day.

Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 few years afterwards my 2d immature adult woman was entering preschool. We constitute out she was sensitive to gluten during her toddler years, thence she could non participate inwards the procedure of breadstuff baking inwards preschool or kindergarten. I was at a loss for what to do. Yes, I was able to supplant the gluten amongst gluten-free options, simply none she could knead. None where she could live purpose of the procedure of grinding the grain into flour. None that connected her to the meaningful move that the whole procedure of breadstuff baking imbued.

Inspired past times the really existent fact that my immature adult woman could non participate inwards the entire experience of breadstuff baking, I started downwardly a path that was years inwards the making. I was almost at that topographic point inwards the confine of 2010 when I posted this gluten-free baguette too Garlic-Rosemary White Bean Dip. I had been using chia too flax already for a piece to assist mimic the texture of gluten, simply something was however missing. Still determined to practice a kneadable gluten-free breadstuff without xanthan gum, I had a flash of inspiration i day. What would move on if I added psyllium husk to the mix? I already knew how it worked to absorb liquid too practice a gel, too thence I had a pretty expert feeling that it mightiness assist to mimic gluten inwards baking recipes. And that was it. I had endure cracked the gluten-free breadstuff code! I eventually shared my Farmhouse Seed Bread recipe hither amongst you lot inwards 2011. After many failures too triumphs (and partially edible loaves of gluten-free bread), I endure created a recipe that truly needs to live kneaded—a delicious, chewy circular loaf of breadstuff made from whole nutrient ingredients! That recipe eventually morphed into many to a greater extent than gluten-free breadstuff recipes using the basic framework I had developed, including this Buckwheat Cinnamon Raisin Bread too more, which tin all live constitute inwards my Nourishing Meals book.

Years later, my twin boys entered kindergarten. By thence at that topographic point were thence many children who were sensitive to gluten that the marker was designated a gluten-free classroom, too their instructor solely used my recipes for breadstuff baking day. They dry reason their ain buckwheat flour using a mitt crank grinder. Different combinations of teff flour, brownish rice flour, buckwheat flour, too arrowroot pulverization were used to shape the dough. My boys would come upwardly abode amongst rolls that they had carefully crafted into dissimilar shapes, tucked within of fiddling napkins. “Mom practice you lot wishing to endeavor my bread?” they called out to me after pick-up. Smiling, I said "yes."

Baking gluten-free breadstuff is quite simple, though it requires a few extra ingredients compared to wheat-based breadstuff recipes. To supplant the gluten—the poly peptide that gives breadstuff it’s chewy texture too what helps it to ascent past times allowing gas bubbles to move trapped—I utilization a combination of dry reason chia seeds too psyllium husk. These ingredients shape a gel that acts similar gluten, allowing gas bubbles from the yeast fermentation to move trapped thence the dough tin rise. They also assist to concur wet too bind everything together.

Any gluten-free flour or blend of flours tin live used inwards this recipe, simply past times using raw buckwheat groats, which tin live dry reason into a soft flour using a mitt or electrical grain grinder, children move to experience the whole procedure of breadstuff making, from grain to loaf—connecting head, heart, too hands.


Buckwheat Cinnamon Raisin Bread or Rolls

Contrary to its name, buckwheat has no relation to wheat. It’s truly non fifty-fifty a grain, simply rather a grain-like seed of a industrial plant life related to rhubarb too sorrel. Be certain to purchase the raw groats, non the roasted variety. This is really important, every bit roasted buckwheat flour (the sort you lot tin purchase inwards the store) volition NOT move inwards this recipe every bit the ii bear really differently inwards baking. Raw buckwheat flour also has a really mild flavour compared to the traditional roasted buckwheat flour you lot typically discovery inwards the store.

It is also of import to purchase buckwheat that is certified gluten-free every bit some brands may live contaminated amongst wheat berries from growing, harvesting, or storage. Bob's Red Mill buckwheat groats are gluten-free too organic. Grind the buckwheat groats inwards a mitt grinder (that has never been used for wheat), a java grinder, or a high-powered blender such every bit a Vitamix (this is what I use). Chia seeds tin live dry reason to a fine repast inwards either a java grinder or high-powered blender every bit well. Serve rolls amongst dear too butter (or kokosnoot butter for a dairy-free option). This recipe tin also live constitute on page 120 of my Nourishing Meals cookbook.

While the yeast is activating, mix together the dry out ingredients inwards a large bowl (start amongst three ½ cups of the buckwheat flour).

After the yeast is activated whisk inwards the olive crude oil or butter, maple syrup, dry reason chia seeds, too psyllium husks into the water-yeast mixture.
