The Sweet Loafer

The Sweet Loafer GF baking that doesn't always pass the beauty test.

I bake my own bread and cake because I have coeliac disease and shop-bought gf food is so expensive. Here are some of my attempts.

GF banana cake.
I put three soft bananas in then added a little more SR flour to hold it up. So the cake was bigger but so bouncy. I added vanilla essence.

This loaf was heavier dough.I put in flaxseed and linseed. It had a crunchy outer. Tasted delicious.

This lemon cake had sugar sprinkled on the top. It made a weird pattern.

Loaves of bread baked in the bread maker smell so delicious and taste lovely but get hard within 24 hours. But I toast it and it tastes great again with plum jam.

I made this one with soya milk.
I’ll have to try the substitute egg powder with one.
It tastes delicious.
Very easy to make.
I’m so glad I’m back doing my bread. Much cheaper than shop bought and hopefully healthier.

But I can actually eat THIS one.
This one tasted wonderful. I put mixed seeds in it.
It does look like it wants to go and crawl back under the rock it came from.

My latest loaf.
Not that you’d recognise it.
I forgot to put the mixing paddle in the bread-maker pot thing.
I can't even follow a simple activity.
Here's some bread gunk:

Postmortem on this loaf:I was gutted! I forgot the yeast. I ate all the outside crusty bits. Can't waste anything.

Jam to the rescue!

This was a GF vegan loaf with seeds, broken pecans, sliced green olives. Vegan egg-replacer: Orgran.
It came out rather doughy, I'm not sure why.
Perhaps the egg-replacer, perhaps the olives released their oil.
Any suggestions welcome.
The pecans were a bit spiky.
Nevertheless, my vegan friend ate half a loaf (still warm) - but said it was nicer once it had cooled down.
