Pamela’s Products Wheat-Free Bread Mix- gluten-free
Yes, good ‘ole Pamela has done it again!
This bread mix is just yummy! The bread should be mixed by a hand mixer and is simple to assemble. The dough spreads easily in the bread pan, where it rises a bit for 60 minutes. It doesn’t rise a lot, just to the top of the pan.
For best results bake this bread the full 70 minutes, as 65 minutes tends to leave it a bit too moist and soft. The crust is soft and chewy, not rock hard like other home-baked mixes. The bread slices easily with an electric knife and has a few nooks and crannies. Overall the flavor is mild, slightly sweet and tasty. The texture is more smooth and not at all crumbly. Best mix I have tried to date!
This mix may also be used for pie crust, pizza crust and sweet breads- the side panels have recipes for these items. (edited to add: I tried this mix to make pizza crust and it was way too sweet. I wouldn’t suggest it Read my review HERE).
PROS: soft yummy bread, great for sandwiches
CONS: long rise and bake time- be sure to plan ahead, slightly sweet
Rating: 5 stars

I have actually never tried this bread mix. Have you ever tried it as a pizza crust? What would you recommend as the best mix for pizza crust? I would like to try to develop my own someday, but I need pizza in the meantime!

Sadly enough, I haven’t found the perfect pizza crust mix- yet. I am hopeful it is out there! I actually have two more pizza crust mixes on my “to-buy” list. Let’s hope one of them is a winner!
I will actually try this mix as a crust and post the results this weekend if that would help. In the meantime I have two completed reviews for crusts so far under my “lunch and dinner” category. So far, I would definately avoid any pre-frozen pizza crusts. I have yet to taste one that is actually decent. Wish me luck on my pizza experiment tomorrow!

This is my favorite bread mix by far. It was soft and lasted for awhile. Two thumbs way, way up.

Natalie, I just tried this mix as a pizza crust and would NOT recommend it. The crust is just too sweet and kills the flavors of the toppings. I will include a more detailed description in a pizza crust review, but for now, pass on the crust idea. I was pretty disappointed.
