Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free oat bran
• 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free oat bran, gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, eggs, unsweetened applesauce, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, folding them together gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 8

Slice and serve your gluten-free homemade bran bread as desired. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
