Carbalose Flour
Has anyone ever tried to bake bread using Carbalose Flour? It's a flour
that is treated with certain enzymes so most of the carbs are not digestible. I tried to bake a bread with it but it came out too dense and heavy. Has anyone used it successfully? |

Never tried making bread with it, probably because I'm not that big on bread in general. |

I tried to bake a bread with it but it came out too dense and heavy. Has anyone used it successfully? I tried it to make pancakes once. Okay but unimpressive. It was the Atkins flour substitute so probably not exactly the same product. I am extremely dubious of claims like "treated with certain enzymes so most of the carbs are not digestible". It makes me think of those noodles that kicked so many out of ketosis. Cool sounding claims that aren't true when a lot of folks try the product. If it's made from a mixture of soluble and insoluble fiber wouldn't they say so? |

I tried to bake a bread with it but it came out too dense and heavy. Has anyone used it successfully? I've used it, but generally not straight-up. Rather, I often have used it in the past in combination with almond or soy flours. I've never baked bread with it as you tried. Did you increase the leavening agent, lower baking temp by 25F and increase baking time (relative to regular flour) as it suggests? -- Bill "Wise Fool" -- Gandalf, _The Two Towers_ (The Wise will remove 'se' to reach me.
