I did, too BUT do the math on the very high amount to sweetener in this mix. 9 grams per slice (based on their stated 16 slices per loaf)! This is 144 grams for the loaf which comes to 1 1/4 cups of sweetener. As you know that's 15 tablespoons in the mix (approximately) so compare that to your favorite recipes. I see no one else coming even close this in mixes or recipes. I can't think of any reason they are doing this except for taste. Just a heads up since we need to be cutting back on sugars not ramping up. :-) Yes, people will like Pamela’s bread mix.

I suspect it might need a lower temp at a longer cook time, but I don't know if that's adjustable on breadmakers. I used this for scones, quickbreads, sweetbreads, and some of those less "dense", less thick types of stuff. Good luck! Jennifer,

I decided to try the Pamela's mix and kept the rest of the recipe the same. I used the 8o minute setting but when I went to cut it...it wasn't baked all the way. Any ideas? Donna and/or Mary Frances,

I plan on recommending it to all my newly gluten-free clients. And buying Pamela's Baking Mix in bulk through Amazon is the way to go.
