Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups warm water (105-115°F)
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 3 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
  • 1 cup tapioca starch
  • ½ cup potato starch
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, tapioca starch, potato starch, and salt.
  3. Add the eggs, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth batter forms. The batter will be thick, similar to cake batter.
  5. Pour the batter into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for 30-45 minutes, or until it has nearly doubled in size.
  7. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  8. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200-210°F (93-99°C).
  9. Remove the bread from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

  • Ensure your gluten-free flour blend contains xanthan gum. If it doesn’t, add 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum to the dry ingredients.
  • Using a kitchen thermometer is the most accurate way to check for doneness.
  • Store cooled bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or slice and freeze for longer storage.
