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 the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan to prepare for baking the dough.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, sugar, salt, and active dry yeast thoroughly.
- Add wet ingredients: Pour in the warm water, olive oil, and crack in the eggs. Mix all ingredients until a smooth, cohesive dough forms.
- Shape the dough: Transfer the dough into the greased loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth out the top evenly for uniform baking.
- Bake the bread: Place the pan in the oven and bake for 40 minutes, until the bread turns golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped, indicating it’s fully baked.
- Cool the bread: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes to set, then gently transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Ensure water is warm but not hot to activate the yeast properly without killing it.
- Use gluten-free flour blend suitable for baking to achieve best texture.
- Letting the bread cool completely on a wire rack prevents sogginess.
- You can substitute olive oil with another mild oil like vegetable or canola oil if preferred.
- For a dairy-free option, use egg substitutes although results may vary.
