Hi Patty, I'm sorry to hear you had difficulty making this recipe! The xanthan gum we sell does not contain corn, so you may have better luck using that product than guar gum in this recipe. However, almond milk is certainly a suitable substitute for the milk called for. If the top crust was sunken this sounds like it might have risen a little too long or at too warm of a rising temperature prior to baking. In this case, baking the bread when it hasn't risen quite so high in the pan may improve your results. For more help troubleshooting this recipe, please don't hesitate to call our Baker's Hotline. We're here M-F from 9am-9pm EST, and Saturday and Sunday from 9am-5pm EST, and the number to call is 855-371-BAKE (2253).
