Baking gluten-free bread and pastries can be a frustrating experience when the end result turns out dry, crumbly, or compact. Without gluten, the dough lacks the elasticity and cohesion needed for an airy structure. VitAdvice Organic Guar gum offers the responsible support your bakes need. This natural and organic aid restores the binding in your dough, allowing you to enjoy delicious, soft, resilient, and tasty gluten-free bread for the whole family time and time again.
Guar gum is a plant-based thickener extracted from the seeds of the guar plant. In gluten-free recipes, it takes over the role of gluten by binding water and increasing the viscosity of the dough. This allows the gases from the leavening agent to be better retained, leading to better volume development and a stable, soft crumb structure after baking.
