Home made gluten free bread with ground quinoa and sesame seeds

Hi everyone,

I like baking my own bread and look for ways of improving it and one is to add protein especially to gluten free bread and I find some ground quinoa is really good and recently a member said how they ground sesame seeds and added them to bread so I've been trying that and it helps the bread stay moist longer and gives it more flavour and texture. I add substitute around 75 g ground seeds with flour and used GF brown bread flour.

I use a simple coffee grinder and often grind seeds to use instead of flour as they're gluten free tasty and nutritious.

I baked one large loaf and this small one which I have in 2 halves you can se that it's doubled in size.

I baked it this morning and had some for lunch. 😀 it's misty and raining outside and roasty toasty inside with bread baking...

Hi Hidden

Your homemade bread looks really great. Glad you enjoyed some for your lunch, on this misty day. Roasty toasty inside sounds great!

Hi Jerry

I love the look and sound if your bread, what excellent ideas you have when it comes to substituting flour, I love both seeds and quinoa.

We have the same weather here but have been occupied with grandchildren all day and had them overnight as well.😊

Thank you Alicia, I like the thought of buying a home flour mill and milling my own pulses seeds and more.

Really we are lucky having more than our fair share of rain as it keeps the countryside luscious. 😊

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I think that's a very good idea Jerry buying your own mill.

I agree, I might not like the rain much but we did have a very temperate climate here.😊

Hey thanks Alicia and we have a great topic of conversation with our ever changing weather patterns...😊

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Oh we certainly do, what would be do without the weather to talk about.

Bet your moist, homemade, ground quinoa & sesame seed bread 🍞 tastes d e l i c i o u s 😋 , Jerry! Thank you kindly for sharing. 🙏 😌

If your up for noting 📝 mouthwatering 👄💦 recipe, please do. 👍👍

[Love 😍 sesame seeds. (Another one of those tasty foods forming base of food pyramid 🔺 along with hummus, falafels 🧆 , chocolate , … 😄 .)]

[Oh . . . we end up buying sesame seeds ’in bulk’ 🛢 ( amazon.co.uk/s?k=sesame+see... , amazon.com/s?k=sesame+seeds... ) — at far better cost than itty bitty 🤏 ‘spice jars’ in spice aisle of supermarket. So nice having a HUGE container of seeds to dip into by scoopful 🥄 rather than teeny weeny little jars that are gone in a few sprinklings.]

Hey thanks Kai-- thats a great compliment, I buy big bags of sesame seeds in the supermarket and they are much better value.

I tend to grind around 75g at a time so a silly little jar wouldn't go far...😊

Hey thanks Pauline-L I have to bake gluten free bread and wholemeal bread doesn't need fat like GF does, so here's a link to the BBC's wholemeal bread recipes:
