Most Recent Bread Recipe - Grain Free

 Kind of guessing on measurements:

1 quart kefir
1 cup oil
5 eggs
1 tablespoon salt

1 tablespoon or so of baking powder

Probably 8-12 cups of Flour mix (I use 50% chickpea flour to 50% starches (and my starches are equal amounts of tapioca starch, sweet potato starch, and potato starch).

Mix wet stuff and salt thoroughly.

Mix baking powder and flour/starch.

You want a mixture that is like semi-thick cake batter.

Dump into OILED cast iron skillet OR into BUTTERED glass cake pans. This amount of batter made 1 of each.

Put into a COLD oven. Turn to 400 Degrees F. 

Bake until golden and cracked on top. Turn out onto a cooling rack (if you leave it in the pans, it sticks and it will rust the cast iron skillet).

Cool completely. Then cut thin and refrigerate or freeze.

Same batter makes dumplings if you spoon drop it into boiling broth (don't Stir cause that breaks the dumplings into dumpling pebbles) and then cover with a lid on simmer for 15-20 minutes.

If you make the batter thinner, it makes pancakes. 

If you pour the batter thin onto a baking stone it makes a fairly good pizza crust.

The bread itself becomes croutons (cube, toss with spices, and bake on 200 for about 8 hours), bread crumbs (a blender on pulse for those croutons), and pretty good toasted cheese sandwiches.

IT DOES NOT DO WELL FOR COLD SANDWICHES. It's too crumbly and dry.
