Gluten Free Bread

This was the first gluten free bread recipe I developed over 10 years ago when our son was first diagnosed with a gluten, dairy and egg allergy. After many attempts, this is the final recipe. It is made faithfully in our home every week. It’s also a star at potlucks, where every slice is guaranteed to be eaten.

Delicious gluten free, dairy free and egg free bread maker bread.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup millet flour
  • 3/4 cup sorghum flour
  • 1 1/2 cups tapioca flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp sea salt
  • 2 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp yeast

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the millet flour, sorghum flour, tapioca flour, sugar, sea salt and xanthan gum.
  2. In the bread maker pan, add the water and the oil.
  3. Carefully pour the mixed dry ingredients over the water. DO NOT MIX!!!!
  4. Sprinkle the yeast over the dry ingredients.
  5. Carefully place the bread maker pan in the bread maker.
  6. Set the bread maker to the gluten free cycle for a 1 1/2 pound loaf as per your bread maker’s specifications.
  7. When the bread maker completes the cycle and the loaf is baked, remove the loaf and let cool completely before slicing.

    Recipe Notes
  • As is the case with most gluten free breads, this bread tastes best the first day. I freeze the remaining sliced bread and toast it when ready to eat.
  • During the mixing part of the bread maker’s cycle, you may need to scrap the edges of the pan to ensure all the ingredients are incorporated. I usually do this halfway through the mixing cycle, about 15 minutes after I start the machine.
  • I use Bob’s Red Mill xanthan gum. I have tried other brands with disappointing results.
