Vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and milk-free
Being gluten and wheat free intolerant really was a big blow to my food choices and my purse. There are a few things I miss but none more than a soft wholemeal or granary bread or just soft bread in general.
I like to think I am a good baker and my normal homemade bread is something I am very proud of. Gluten-free bread though is another matter. I have tried many recipes over the years but making gluten-free at home is something akin to alchemy. Before I became vegan I could use egg white in the recipe and I had some really good results. Now with that off the table, I turned to that wonderful multi-purpose ingredient aquafaba.
It is almost impossible to make a very airy gluten-free at home but I am pleased with this one. It is so nice toasted or a thickly buttered slice with a bowl of soup. The aquafaba (chickpea water) in this recipe is whisked up and folded in gently.
