welcome to the club Deb! You'll miss it but you'll feel much better.

I had the test done with probes attached to my finger which showed allergy to dust mites (explains sneezing) also wheat which if I avoid prevents bloating and seems to help with weight loss.  Not always strict as am not caused pain but try really hard!

I made brioche rolls with poppy seeds recently.  I put together my own measurements using up the last of an expensive gluten-free flour.  Basically, I tried to incorporate plenty of butter and eggs and get a very soft dough . . . it was just a little too wet I think, but the end results was nice enough, could have had more lift.  I will try this in silicone muffin molds next time.  The non-stick cake pan that I coated well with butter, was nearly impossible to clean.  MrP mistakenly scrubbed the finish off, so that went in to the shed for some future messy non-food use.  I didn't mind.  I hate those cake pans.

I used Cup4Cup gf flour which is quite expensive . . . but works like a dream in recipes.  I hope the price comes down because I would buy it all the time if so.

I will weigh the ingredients today and pass along the results.  Going to make another batch using a less expensive flour.

I used a different flour and another method which was very simple, but I am still not finished experimenting . . . may have to eat a lot of brioche before this is over.

eta: This method took almost no rising time, just a little in the molds and then they puffed up quite well, but they're not pretty - too craggy on top, so back to the drawing board.  I used a bread flour mixture by Pamela's Products, last time I used Cup4Cup which is a very nice product and costs too much money!

I made rolls with currants this time.
