believe the hype!
I have celiac and because gluten free things are pretty disgusting, I eat a mostly ketogenic diet. I was somewhat non-compliant in the beginning of my diagnosis, so even though bread is poison to me, I kept trying to eat it. This means I really remember what real, delicious bread tastes like. I finally became too sick to tolerate any gluten at all, so now I have tried every kind of bread, crackers, mix that's out there and while some are tolerable, most are downright disgusting. I have no idea what supernatural forces came together to create this bread, but whatever they are, I am HERE FOR IT. This bread is very very good and the closest thing I have eaten to actual bread in years and years. Also, I'm not really a review writer, but doing this felt like a moral imperative for all of the celiacs and keto folks out there. I ordered a second pack after observing that it actually rose, and another when I tasted it. Now i'm buying stock in the company haha. A few thoughts/tips:
1. this tastes good, texture is a little spongy -- it is reminiscent of wonder white bread 😍 and has elements of the texture of a popover.
2. I used butter to grease the pan.
3. This won't seem like traditional dough-- more like batter bread. definitely grease the spatula when you are transferring to the pan.
4. If you're keto and you read the review that said this raised blood sugar, note that the person added a bunch of things to it, so my advice is check for yourself.
5. Some others commented on the cost, but it's worth every penny to be able to eat bread and not feel like you're choking on sawdust.
good luck! enjoy!
