Serve Gluten-Free Bread fresh out of the oven, sliced and spread with butter or your favorite jam. It pairs wonderfully with soups, such as Tomato Gazpacho Shots or Chicken and Tortilla Soup, for a comforting meal.
For breakfast, enjoy it toasted with avocado and poached eggs, or use it to make hearty sandwiches filled with deli meats and fresh veggies.
Tips and Notes
- Flours: Use a blend of gluten-free flours, such as almond flour, brown rice flour, and tapioca flour, to achieve the best texture. Store-bought gluten-free flour blends can also work well.
- Xanthan Gum: This ingredient helps mimic the elasticity of gluten, providing structure to the bread. Be sure to include it if your flour blend does not already contain it.
- Moisture: Gluten-free bread often requires more moisture. Incorporate ingredients like applesauce, yogurt, or extra eggs to achieve the desired texture.
- Baking: Bake the bread in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 45-60 minutes. Use a toothpick to check for doneness; it should come out clean when inserted into the center.
- Storage: Store any leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, slice and freeze the bread for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before enjoying.
Enjoy the simple pleasure of making Gluten-Free Bread as a delicious and versatile addition to your meals!
