Ingredients

• 3.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
• 0.5 cup Tapioca starch
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant dry yeast
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 teaspoons Xanthan gum
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Unsweetened coconut milk
• 1 cup Pineapple juice
• 3 units Large eggs
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour blend, tapioca starch, instant dry yeast, salt, xanthan gum, and sugar. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well blended.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, mix together the coconut milk, pineapple juice, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Using a sturdy spoon or an electric mixer with a paddle attachment, mix the ingredients together until you achieve a smooth, thick batter. It should resemble cake batter more than bread dough.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. If necessary, use a dampened spoon or spatula to help distribute the batter evenly.

Step 6

Cover the pan lightly with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 20-30 minutes. The batter should rise slightly but may not double in size due to its density.

Step 7

Once risen, remove the covering and place the loaf pan in the preheated oven. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is a deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully turn out the bread onto a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
