I’m all out of white rice flour. I know, I know….unforgivable. However, I still need bread in the house, so I turned to a mix for some possible success….
Here are my thoughts:
Allergy-Related Information: Gluten-Free, Casein-Free, Dairy-Free
Appearance
Pros: I cooked this bread directly according to the recipe. It rose well and is a rich brown. The slices are a great size!
Cons: Unfortunately, the box instructions were very complicated. This company often includes a “faster/easier” version, but I figured for the review I would still to the classic directions. However, the list of ingredients is rather scattered, not listed in order of the recipe, and as a result, I almost missed an ingredient! Although the box looks nice and chic, the practicality of listing the ingredients in order was totally lost.
Also, the bread rose nicely. I cooked it exactly as the directions told me too. However, the center of the loaf kind of sank, and that was disappointing.
Taste
Pros: I was really afraid that this bread would taste grainy and like a large handful of oats. Lol.. Although I used to eat them like that as a child, I can’t say I would want that for a piece of bread. Amazingly, I was happy to find this bread sort of rich in flavor.
Cons: I can’t say I have any cons! 🙂
Moisture/Texture
Pros: I like the moisture that stayed in this bread! It was soft and tasty, and although I stored it in the fridge and not the freezer, it was moist and pliable like any other gluten-free bread I’ve had. So, I forgot to put this bread in the freezer. I did refrigerate it, but I was sure after a week in the fridge that this bread would be dry and gross. It wasn’t! I took a bite of a slice and I wanted to add butter and enjoy the whole thing!
Cons: None! 🙂
What I Love
I love that this oat millet bread tasted just like any good slice of bread and was easy to make! It wasn’t a huge project to make a loaf of bread!
What I’d Improve
The center of the bread sinking was disappointing, but I would say re-organizing the recipe would be the most-profitable change to this.
Overall Rating: B+
