Gluten Free Bread Patties
Consuming the rose preserve with bread is most delicious, but many of us choose to avoid gluten and/or wheat. Here is a delicious gluten-free recipe. It will have a pleasant bitter taste because of the millet and quinoa.
40% Millet flour
40% Quinoa Flour
20% Almond meal
1 Tablespoon yogurt
A dash of Soma Salt
¼ tsp water
1 tsp cumin seeds
Mix all into a sticky dough. You will not get a clean dough, it will feel unformed, but that’s ok, do not add more flour. Then take a small part and roll out in the palm of your hand into patties and cook on an iron skillet. May add a few drops of Mum’s
ghee on the skillet but it is not necessary. Once the dough is heated, the stickiness will go away. These make delicious little bread patties. Eat with any meal, but particularly with Rose Preserve!

Dear Vaidhyaji,
In the “Gluten free bread patties” recipe, Yogurt is used in the dough. So,Is it ok to cook Yogurt? Wont cooking destroy its friendly bacteria?
Thanks,
Pavithra
Vaidhyaji,
What are the exact measurements of each flour ingredient in the “Gluten Free Bread Patties” Recipe?
You give specific measurements for yogurt and salt but left measurements for flours in percentages.
How many patties does this recipe make?
Thank you,
Veronica
