Recommendations for bread

As someone with Coeliac I make my own bread. I have used both the gluten free flour and I have mixed my own GF flour as well. I recommend the latter.
Our home made bread tastes much better, certainly better than the supermarket bread ( although some artisan GF breads do taste good) and a lot cheaper in the long run. We do have a gluten free bread book specifically for bread machines, as the ingredient ratios do change. You can't just swop out regular flour for GF flour in a bread recipe.
If I am buying bread I never take the chance buying regular sourdough bread that isn't certified GF. You sometimes read that sourdough is naturally gluten free , no it isn't, even if the gluten is vastly reduced it still has gluten.
 
I’m curious — what mix of flours do you use? I’ve been thinking about making my own blends too, but for now I’m still sticking with store-bought ones.

@LindaWO For the gluten free bread? It's very high in carbs
Sweet rice flour
millet flour
sorghum flour or brown rice flour will do
tapioca flour
potato starch ( not potato flour)
If you want a recipe I can post one.

Keto friendly flours are also available if you are looking for low carb flours.

I buy warburtons tiger bread which is expensive but it lasts me over a week and start toasting it towards the end of its life.
I've tried allsorts over the years and the warbies one comes out best.

Good luck
