Gluten-Free Bread Crumbs

• Use gluten-free bread crumbs to create a crispy coating for baked or fried chicken, fish, or vegetables. Dredge your protein or vegetable in a gluten-free flour, dip in egg wash and coat it evenly with these breadcrumbs before cooking for best results.
• Incorporate gluten-free bread crumbs as a binding agent in meatloaf, meatballs, or veggie burgers. They help hold the ingredients together and prevent the dish from becoming too dense. Mix the breadcrumbs with ground meat, eggs and herbs to create a uniform mixture.
• Sprinkle gluten-free bread crumbs over casseroles or gratins for a golden brown, crunchy topping. Combine them with melted butter or olive oil and sprinkle evenly over your dish before baking.
• Thicken sauces and soups with gluten-free bread crumbs. Add a small amount to your dish to help absorb excess liquid and create a richer, creamier consistency.
• Create a flavorful stuffing for poultry or vegetables using gluten-free bread crumbs. Combine them with herbs, vegetables, broth, and spices to make a delicious filling.
• Use gluten-free bread crumbs to add texture to desserts. Crumble on top of baked crisps or cobblers or fold in to cookie recipes for added chewiness.

• May be suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, aiding in digestive health.
• Can be made from whole grains, offering fiber for improved gut health and regularity.
• Provides a source of carbohydrates for energy, fueling daily activities.
• Often lower in sodium compared to traditional bread crumbs, supporting healthy blood pressure.
• May be fortified with vitamins and minerals, contributing to overall nutritional intake.

Gluten-free bread crumbs should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Once opened, reseal the container tightly to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to spoilage. For extended shelf life, consider storing them in the refrigerator, especially in humid climates. Freezing is also an option for long-term storage; simply place the bread crumbs in a freezer-safe bag or container and thaw as needed.
