Can you make without a microwave?
VegiBread was created to be made in the microwave, however you can also cook in a waffle maker or a frying pan (using egg rings). Although the bread will not be as fluffy and light, it is still delicious topped (my favourite cottage cheese and sun-dried tomatoes).
Frying pan method
Heat a non stick frying pan, place egg rings and fill with made VegiBread mix (1 sachet will fill 2 rings),
On medium heat, place a lid on pan for approx 5 mins. Remove lid and gently pry off rings.
Flip, replace lid and cook other side.
Waffle maker method
Heat a non stick waffle maker. Pour ready made VegiBread mix onto iron, ensuring you do not overfill (have a chopping board or mat underneath in case it overflows). Cook for approx 7 mins and when waffle maker releases grip on VegiBread it is ready to go.
Why VegiBread works so well in the microwave
Unlike traditional bread, VegiBread doesn’t rely on yeast or lengthy proving times. Instead, it uses baking powder to help the bread rise quickly during cooking, making it perfect for the microwave. The result is fresh gluten-free bread in just minutes—without the wait.
