Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 eggs
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan to ensure the bread does not stick during baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and active dry yeast thoroughly to distribute all dry components evenly.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the warm water, olive oil, and eggs to the dry mixture. Mix all ingredients together until a smooth, cohesive dough forms.
- Shape Dough: Transfer the dough into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top gently with a spatula to ensure even baking.
- Bake: Bake the dough in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until the bread turns a golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped, indicating it is fully baked.
- Cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully removing it and placing on a wire rack to cool completely, which helps maintain the texture and prevents sogginess.
Notes
- Use warm water to activate the yeast properly but avoid hot water as it can kill the yeast.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to get clean slices.
- If you want a softer crust, you can brush the top with melted butter after baking.
- Store bread in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 3 days.
- This recipe is suitable for individuals on a gluten-free diet.
