Homemade Gluten Free Bread
Let’s be honest, have you actually purchased a gluten free loaf of bread that you loved & wasn't 8 dollars?!
All the bread I’ve had from stores is dry, stiff & essentially just not good enough….
The coronavirus pandemic has also put international supplies of wheat at risk & reports say to expect shortages and/or prices of bread to rise (which we have already seen here locally in our stores)ā£
SO! It’s the perfect time to start making your own & stocking up on your favorite flour. It’s honestly a LOT easier & more economical than I thought it would be!ā£
ā£Below is my simplified, easy version for bread maker bread. It produces the most amazingly soft & supple all-purpose gluten-free bread I’ve ever had.ā£
INGREDIENTSā£
• 1 1/4 cup waterā£
• 1/4 cup oil or 4 tbsp dairy free butterā£
• 3 eggs (room temp)ā£
• 1 1/4 tsp saltā£
• 3 tbsp sugarā£
• 3 1/4 cup Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flourā£
• 2 tsp active dry yeastā£
ā£
Step 1:
In a medium bowl, mix water, oil & eggs. Pour into the bottom of the loaf pan.ā£
Step 2:
Mix salt, sugar & flour. Pour on top of liquid in the loaf pan.ā£
Step 3:
Make a small bowl-shaped indentation on top of the flour. Add yeast to indentation.ā£
Step 4:
Put loaf pan intoto machine, close lid & turn on to Gluten Free setting (mode 3 on my machine)ā£
Step 5:
A few minutes into the kneading setting, open the lid & use a spatula to scrape down any remaining ingredients from the sides of the bowl. Close & continue to let the machine knead, rise & bake.ā£
Step 6:
When done baking, remove bread pan & allow to cool 20-30 min upright. Then, lay pan on left & right sides for a few minutes each to let the bread rest away from the bowl. Use a wire cooling rack to flip bread over & continue to fully cool. Remove kneading paddle & enjoy!ā£
ā£Store in an airtight container on counter

ā£In the end, it actually does save us a bit of money, gives us higher quality ingredients & allows us to have fresher, on-demand food.ā£
