<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> There used to be a bread recipe on the older-style box of Energ-G food's "Rice -n- Rye Mix" that used brown sugar or molassess and other things and ended up tasting _wonderful_. If anybody has a copy of this, I would love it (it used to be on the white with some green box). I don't know if it used Xantham gum. Make simple breads. Muffins. The Ener-G mixes have lots of recipes on them. For example: **************************************** "Rice Mix Muffins" (from the back of a Rice Mix box; shortened somewhat) 2 cups Ener-G Rice Mix {= 2 c. flour + 2 teaspoons baking powder} 2 tabelspoons sugar/honey/etc. 1 Cup milk/water/etc. 2 tablespoons oil 1 beaten egg Mix them. Stir just enough to blend ingredients. If baking them in a muffin pan, grease the bottom. Bake at 425 for ~20 min. **************************************** Most muffin recipes are similar. Somewhere around here I have an even simpler recipe. I'll look for it. Rice & corn flour can be purchased in large quanties cheaply. Check health food stores and stores in "ethnic" neighborhoods (I buy most of my flours in Chinatown and Little India -- I live in Chicago.) I like to add amaranth flour for protein. Check mix packages for pancake recipes. They cook a little different (than wheat pancakes), but are good and quick to mix up. If you need premade stuff, look for corn tortillas. Read the label. Find some that are pure corn. Cheap source of carbohydrates! Enjoy, Als
