Ingredients
- 350 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)
- 50 grams Tapioca starch
- 25 grams Sugar
- 7 grams Salt
- 10 grams Instant yeast
- 320 milliliters Warm water
- 120 milliliters Unsweetened almond milk (or any lactose-free milk alternative)
- 60 milliliters Olive oil
- 10 milliliters Apple cider vinegar
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, combine the warm water, almond milk, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.
Step 3
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while mixing. Use a hand mixer with dough hooks or a stand mixer on medium speed for about 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and sticky.
Step 4
Grease a standard loaf pan (approximately 8x4 inches) with olive oil or cooking spray.
Step 5
Spoon the dough into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a wet spatula or spoon to create an even surface.
Step 6
Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes, or until it doubles in size.
Step 7
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) while the dough is rising.
Step 8
Once the dough has risen, bake the bread in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
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 finish cooling completely before slicing.
