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 Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal after baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and active dry yeast evenly to distribute the leavening and seasoning throughout the dough.
- Add Wet Ingredients and Form Dough: Pour in the warm water, olive oil, and eggs to the dry mixture. Stir and mix thoroughly until you achieve a smooth dough consistency suitable for shaping.
- Transfer Dough to Pan: Spoon or pour the dough into the greased loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth the surface evenly for uniform rising and baking.
- Bake the Bread: Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped, indicating it is fully baked.
- Cool the Bread: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing to maintain texture and flavor.
Notes
- Ensure the water is warm (not hot) to properly activate the yeast.
- Use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend suitable for baking to achieve the best texture.
- Allow the bread to cool fully before slicing to avoid a gummy crumb.
- You can substitute olive oil with another mild vegetable oil if preferred.
