View Full Version : Do I need to add gluten for spelt rolls?

I'm making some spelt rolls from a recipe I found on-line...but, am wondering if I should add some gluten...as I do with my regular wheat bread? I've never made all-spelt bread and I've read that the gluten is fragile.

If it turns out...I'll post the recipe.

Thanks!

No, you don't have to add gluten. I used to bake exclusively with spelt and may start again really soon if spelt doesn't give us any allergic reactions. (We just tested positive to wheat allergies). I liked my spelt rolls so much that I made them specially sometimes to take to potlucks and family dinners at the in-laws.
