Best 3 Basic Bread Gluten Free Recipes
GLUTEN-FREE BREAD
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas 6. Warm the milk in a small pan over a low heat, then leave to cool slightly. Crack the eggs into a large bowl, add the vinegar, then gradually stir in the warm milk until combined.
- Combine the flour, salt, sugar and yeast in another bowl, then, using a wooden spoon, stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until it forms a sticky dough. Add the olive oil, then bring it together with your hands into a ball, adding a little flour if it's too sticky.
- Place onto a lightly oiled baking tray, cover with a damp tea towel, then leave to prove in a warm place for around 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Once risen, place the tray in the hot oven and bake for around 35 minutes, or until golden and cooked through. Leave to cool slightly on a wire cooling rack, then slice and serve. Delicious with hearty stews and soups, or toasted and served hot with butter and jam.

GLUTEN-FREE BREAD IN A BREAD MACHINE
Make this gluten-free bread in your bread maker. It's not as good as normal bread, but it's pretty good if you must avoid gluten. The mixture will look more like cake batter than bread dough in your machine, don't worry, it will be okay. The loaf may sink while it's baking, leaving a crusty, crunchy bowl on the exposed end, which you will want to slice off and discard. The finished bread will be quite firm and heavy, and I recommend slicing it thin. It makes good toast, but it toasts slowly. I use my darkest toaster setting and have to run that twice to get golden brown toast.

BASIC BREAD - GLUTEN-FREE
This is based on a recipe from Dr. Carol Fenster's book, Gluten-Free 101. I've included both hand and bread machine methods. The recipe as written is for a 1 pound loaf (serves 10); if quantities differ, I've noted them in parentheses separated by an "or"; 1.5 pound loaf (serves 15) or 2 pound loaf (serves 20). There are a lot of gluten-free flour blends available in stores and on food.com; the flour blend Carol uses in this recipe is recipe #391326 #391326. For the dry milk powder, Carol says do not use Carnation; use cow, rice, or soy dry milk. She also suggests you see Bread 101-a step-by-step guide for baking gluten-free bread by hand at www.glutenfree101.com; click on Recipes, then Bread Recipes, then Bread 101. Cook time doesn't include rising time. Nutrition info: calories 185; fat 2g; protein 3g; carbohydrates 40g; sodium 192mg; cholesterol 21 mg; fiber < 1g.

Steps:
- HAND METHOD:.
- Prepare pan(s) by greasing according to the bread weight you're making: 1 pound loaf uses an 8x4-inch pan, 1 ½ pound loaf uses a 9x5-inch pan, 2 pound loaf calls for two 8x4-inch pans.
- Combine dry yeast, 2 teaspoons of the sugar, and warm water. Set aside to let yeast foam, about 5 minutes.
- In bowl of heavy-duty stand mixer using regular beaters, not dough hook, combine yeast-mixture with remaining ingredients, including the remaining sugar.
- Blend on medium speed for 1 minute, scraping down sides with spatula as needed.
- Place dough in prepared pan(s). Cover lightly with foil and let rise at room temperature (75 to 80°F) until dough is level with top of pan. Rising time will vary from 45 to 60+ minutes, depending on altitude and humidity.
- Preheat oven to 375°F Using sharp knife, make three diagonal slashes 1/8-inch deep in loaf so steam can escape during baking.
- Bake 55 to 65 minutes, or until nicely browned and internal temperature is 205°F on an instant-read thermometer. Do not underbake. Cover with foil tent after 20 minutes of baking to reduce overbrowning.
- BREAD MACHINE METHOD:.
- Follow bread machine instructions, making sure machine is appropriate size for recipe. Carol shisks dry ingredients together (including yeast) and adds to pan. She then whisks liquid ingredients together (water at room temperature) and pours carefully over dry ingredients.
- Set controls and bake. Carol uses the "Normal" setting.
Tips:
- Choose the right gluten-free flour blend: Not all gluten-free flour blends are created equal. Some are better for bread than others. Look for a blend that is high in protein and has a good balance of starches.
- Use xanthan gum: Xanthan gum is a common ingredient in gluten-free baking. It helps to bind the ingredients together and create a more cohesive loaf of bread.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place: The ideal temperature for rising dough is between 75 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. A warm oven or a sunny spot on the counter are both good options.
- Bake the bread at a high temperature: Gluten-free bread needs to be baked at a higher temperature than regular bread in order to get a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing it: Gluten-free bread is more delicate than regular bread, so it's important to let it cool completely before slicing it. This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
Conclusion:
With a little planning and effort, it is possible to make delicious gluten-free bread at home. By following these tips, you can create a loaf of bread that is both flavorful and satisfying.
