Ingredients

• 120 grams Gluten-free sourdough starter
• 200 grams Brown rice flour
• 100 grams Tapioca flour
• 60 grams Potato starch
• 10 grams Psyllium husk powder
• 5 grams Xanthan gum
• 300 ml Filtered water
• 15 grams Honey
• 30 grams Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free sourdough starter, brown rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch, psyllium husk powder, and xanthan gum.

Step 2

In a separate container, mix the filtered water, honey, and olive oil until the honey is fully dissolved.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon or a spatula until no dry flour remains and the mixture forms a thick but smooth dough.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rest in a warm, draft-free area for 4-6 hours, or until it has doubled in size. This fermentation period is crucial for developing the sourdough flavor.

Step 5

Once the dough has doubled, preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F) with a Dutch oven inside to heat up.

Step 6

Gently scrape the dough onto a piece of parchment paper. Use wet hands to shape it into a round loaf, if necessary.

Step 7

Carefully remove the hot Dutch oven from the oven, lift the dough using the parchment paper, and place it into the Dutch oven.

Step 8

Cover with the lid and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

Step 9

After 45 minutes, remove the lid and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and a tap on the bottom of the bread sounds hollow.

Step 10

Remove the bread from the Dutch oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before slicing.
