The difference in cups is only 15 ml which is a tablespoon. So, for 1 cup, use your 250ml cup and remove 1 tbsp. For 1.5 cups, remove 1.5 tbsp, etc. That "should" work for you.Thank you for taking the time for that, Mr-Pot. I’ll give it another go!
Did your weights come out to about the same as mine? I'm just curious about the different brands from different countries.Thank you LouWilk059 for the extra hints. My first two attempts were using the suggested cups to ml measure conversion in the first post. Which proved ... problematic. Twice. Such a waste.
So I bought some cups and yesterday made Gabi's Low Carb Bread in my breadmaker, which turned out rather splendidly.
Sadly, cups aren't my thing. Hate them in fact. lol. But as I was following the Gabi' recipe, I took a note of the gram weights of each element and was thus able to work out carbs too. So a double bonus and all good.
I'm going to play with adding some mixed seeds next time, which should add a nicer texture to the crust.
Thanks. It's pretty close. I'll round off my numbers for next time I bake a loaf. I'm also going to cut salt in half as I find it too salty. Happy baking!My weights:
- 150g | 1 cup vital wheat gluten flour
- 70 g | 3/4 cup soy flour
- 37g | 1/4 cup linseed
- 27g | 1/4 cup oat flour
- 15g | 1/4 cup coarse unprocessed wheat bran
I love making from scratch. Can't understand why everyone's so upset about those stupid lidl rolls when you can just bake this up.Not too bothered by salt but, looking at your linseed weight vs mine, I realise that I weighed the unground 1/4 cup of seeds, so will opt for your ground 26g vs my unground 37g next time; maybe 30g as a compromise. (I can believe that an unground cup measure is heavier than the ground “flour” cup equivalent.)
Happy baking to you too. It’s brilliant to have the option of bread again, almost guilt free now. So few carbs in this loaf.
The oats I have are the very coarse ones (steel cut) so I do have to grind them a bit but that's nice to know if I decide to make an artisan loaf! Thank you.I used to put the oats in a blender to make flour. Now I just use the oats whole, it doesn't seem to make any difference and saves a bit of time and mess.
