Wheat Free Rye Soda Bread...

Hello All!

I've been craving some bread and the 

hardest part of eating wheat free/yeast free

is finding bread you can eat that

 doesn't cost a fortune to buy.

So, I found a basic recipe and tweaked it a bit.

Most recipes still call for all purpose flour and/or yeast.

So, with this recipe it also called for all purpose flour

and what I did was buckwheat, almond meal, 

green banana and Gluten Free all purpose flour

along with the rye flour.

It's dense just like a traditional soda bread

but with adding in the green banana flour

it made it a bit more moist.

I love the looks of this bread as it looks so rustic!

Rustic and very tasty!

Did you know that buckwheat flour 

isn't actually from the wheat family?

It's apart of the rhubarb plant.

I thought that was very interesting!

Would you like the recipe now?

If you try this recipe, would you let me

 know what you thought of it?

Wheat Free Rye Soda Bread

2 1/2 cups Rye Flour

1 1/2 cups total combined 

buckwheat flour, almond meal,

 GF flour mix and green banana flour

1 1/4 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 tsp salt

2 cups buttermilk or sour milk

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Whisk is your flours, baking soda and salt.

Make a well in center of the flour

 and pour in your buttermilk.

Stir well.

Divide dough in half and turn each 

dough ball onto a floured surface.

Make into 2 round loaves.

Transfer to a baking sheet.

Cut a 1 inch X  into the top of loaf.

 Poke holes around the X.

Bake for 30 minutes.  

Let cool at least 10 minutes before cutting.

I cut mine up and place half in a tin

 and stuck in freezer.  

Then this way when I want bread

I can take out one slice at a time.

*TIP*

If you aren't eating wheat free

you can add in your flour of choice.

Green Banana flour can be found at your local

health food store or online.

This flour will make your baked goods moist.

A little will go a long ways.

Also, when I was searching for wheat free flours

I came across this handy website on alternative flours.

Go check it out HERE

This site will also show you if it's gluten free.

Now rye isn't considered gluten free

but if you are going for a wheat free diet, rye is acceptable.

I hope you all are having 

a great Summer so far!

Thanks so much for stopping by,
