Gluten Free Artisan Bread
A delicious, crusty gluten-free artisan bread perfect for sandwiches or alongside a hearty soup.
Ingredients - Serves 8
- Apple cider vinegar - 1 tablespoon
- Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
- Eggs - 2, beaten
- Salt - 2 teaspoons
- Xanthan gum - 1 tablespoon
- Gluten-free all-purpose flour - 5 cups
- Active dry yeast - 1 tablespoon
- Sugar - 1 tablespoon
- Warm water - 2 1/2 cups
Let's Get Started
- In a large bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and let it sit for 5 minutes, or until it's frothy.
- In another bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, and salt.
- Add the beaten eggs, olive oil, and vinegar to the yeast mixture. Stir well.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, stirring well after each addition. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
- Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it's doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If you have a baking stone, place it in the oven to preheat as well.
- Shape the dough into a round loaf and place it on a piece of parchment paper. Let it rise for another 30 minutes.
- Transfer the loaf (still on the parchment paper) to the preheated baking stone or a baking sheet. Bake for about 45 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing.
