Gluten-Free Brown Loaf

Soft and hearty gluten-free loaf

  • 1 tbsp (15g) active dry yeast
  • 1 tbsp (15g) honey or sugar
  • 325ml (12floz) tepid milk (warm, but not too hot, or the yeast will die)
  • 450g (16oz) gluten free brown bread flour mix*
  • 1½ tsp (7½ml) xanthan gum
  • 4 tsp (20g) baking powder*
  • 1 tsp (5g) salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 50ml (1½ fl.oz) oil
  • 2 tsp (10ml) cider vinegar or lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (5g) onion seeds (optional)
  1. Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas Mark 6
  2. Mix the yeast and the sugar in a small bowl. Add the warm milk and blend together, then leave it for 10 minutes, until the yeast starts to foam and bubble
  3. Sieve together the flour, xanthan gum, baking powder and salt in a large bowl
  4. In a third bowl, mix together the eggs, oil, and vinegar
  5. Place the yeast mixture and the egg mixture into the bowl containing the flour mixture, and mix them all together. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed. This can be done easily using an automatic mixer for 3 minutes with the paddle blade, or by hand mixing with a spatula (You don't need to knead this dough; it will be more like a thick cake consistency)
  6. Grease your 2lb loaf tin
  7. Place the batter into the tin
  8. Leave to rise for about 30 minutes or until doubled. Wet the top with water and sprinkle on the onion seeds if your using them
  9. Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes or until golden and cooked through
