Ingredients
- 3 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum (omit if included in flour blend)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2.5 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 2 large Eggs, room temperature
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1.25 cups Warm water (110°F/45°C)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, xanthan gum (if using), salt, sugar, and instant yeast.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.
Step 3
With the mixer on low or while stirring by hand, gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Step 4
Slowly add the warm water to the mixture, pausing to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Mix until the batter is smooth and slightly sticky. Gluten-free bread dough is more like a thick batter compared to traditional dough.
Step 5
Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or a French bread mold, and transfer the dough into the prepared pan. Smooth the top with a spatula dipped in water to create an even surface.
Step 6
Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel, and let the dough rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes, or until it reaches just above the edge of the pan.
Step 7
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) while the bread is rising.
Step 8
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a thermometer inserted in the center reads at least 200°F (93°C).
Step 9
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Step 10
Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
