We’ve had so many conversations about giving up gluten, either on the PCOS Show or in various articles on the blog.
And I know that it’s not easy. What are you going to have for lunch instead of sandwiches? Is gluten free bread okay? Bread is just so easy.
Well, I prefer not to have gluten free bread for a number of reasons. It tends to be made from very processed and refined flours, giving it a high glycemic load. And I just don’t like the taste of it, if I’m entirely honest.
But, I did stumble across this wonderful PCOS friendly bread recipe from Elana’s Pantry. It is so easy to make and is a regular feature in our family.
I love it toasted or plain as a sandwich bread.
Here is the recipe for you:
