Anyone have a gluten-free challah recipe for either bread machine or by hand? This and pizza are the 2 things dd is most upset about. I know there are rice-crust pizza dough recipies and products, but I haven't seen anything about challah (Jewish egg-bread). Thanks!

Oh yes, I would die for some challah bread!
I did see a website from NYC where you could get 2 loaves of challah for $16, and they would ship it for $10 within NYC. So, I'm figuring to get it to Calgary, I'd probably have to re-mortgage my house!

According to GFCFdiet.com, Lori Bakes (724-941-7817 loribakes@adelphia.net) does homemade breads in her kitchen, including challah bread:

Banana Bread
Banana Nut Bread
WONDERful White Bread
WONDERful Hamburger Buns
WONDERful Mini Hamburger Buns
WONDERful Hot Dog Buns
Corn Bread
Challah (Egg Bread)
Cinnamon Raisin Bread

She doesn't have a web site yet but on the GFCF site they make it sound like she bakes as a home business, I bet if you email she will send you prices, etc.

Mr. Ritts in South Philadelphia sells and will ship gluten-free Challah. (215-627-3034)

Wow! Thanks for all the help! We just got the date for the biopsy - 10/28. I'm going to have some challah waiting for her just in case. Dr is on vaca - when he's back I will try to find out if the biopsy is neg would we be gluten-free anyway with the way her bloods were - I assume we would.

http://www.glutenfreeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=658&hl= This is an old thread, the second recipe is Challa Bread. I hope this helps.

Thank you SO SO SO much for that link!!!!! We are kosher too so all of these items would have come up at some point in time. I am printing the whole thread out with what's left of my ink cartridge

Not sure where you live but my family owns kosher restaurants in NY. Although they haven't started to make special gluten-free versions of stuff, we have determined a lot of their mainstream items (inlcuding most of their soups) are gluten-free. Let me know if you live in the NY area and I'll give you the info.

Oh and the site Lori was referring to that will deliver gluten-free Challah is Everbody Eats Inc. I haven't tried the challah yet but my assistant ordered me the brownies for my birthday and they were amazing!!!

Hey Jillian - I'm right near you, in Bergen county! I would love to know which restaurants! We are seeing Philip Kazlow at Presbyterian. We have Whole Foods near us. DD's metabolic dr is at WCMC so I sometimes go to Mrs. Green's. We used to live in Hartsdale. Talk to you later!

Hey, If anybody has the cookbook 'Gluten-free gourmet', that has a Challah recipe... in case you wanted to know..

The problem I've found with baking gluten-free challah is it definitely doesn't have that same consistency as regular gluten filled goodness challah. But if someone has a fantastic recipe, I'm willing to try it again. I've made Bette Hagemans, and it smells like challah but definitely isn't the real thing. Sigh...

Hi all - There area few challah recipes and some discussion of how to make gluten-free challah posted on AllergicJews:

I still haven't tried making challah because I"m so afraid of being disappointed
