    Soft White Bread (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    This recipes comes to us from Kathy Scholz.

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    In a small bowl combine:
    ½ cup warm water
    2 teaspoons sugar
    4 teaspoons dry yeast granules
    Set aside and let stand for 15 minutes

    2 cups white rice flour
    2 cups tapioca flour
    ¼ cup sugar
    4 teaspoons xanthan gum
    2/3 cup dry milk
    1 ½ teaspoons salt
    Combine the above six ingredients in a large bowl (use largest mixing bowl).

    1 ½ cups water
    4 tablespoons melted butter or oil
    1 teaspoon gluten-free vinegar
    3 eggs

    Mix above dry ingredients in a large bowl, and the four liquid ingredients in a small bowl, then add the butter mixture and yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Beat on high for 2 minutes. Use two small greased bread pans, as one large one seems to cause the bread to rise too high and become like a mushroom. Allow to rise in pan, then bake at 350 degrees 20 - 25 minutes. Adjust time depending on size of loaves. Can also be made as sandwich rolls, as indicated below: use small individual pie tins (about 4 across, purchase in paper goods supply store, round out the bottom crease with your thumb and finger, or press the tin down on the bottom of a jar the appropriate size to round out the crease, these may be reused time and time again) spray the tins with cooking oil, divide dough to make about 12 sandwich rolls, place pie tins on two cookie sheets, allow to rise, if desired brush with a mixture of egg and water, sprinkle sesame seed or poppy seeds over top, before baking. Bake until nicely browned in 15 -20 minutes.

    I know that if I put too much dough in the bread pan it will be still doughy in the middle. Careful with how much you put in. I only fill it up about 2'- 2 1/2'. I let it rise for about 1 1/2 hour. The unfortunate part is it does collapse a little. I haven't figured that out yet. Susan...the reason the batter could have been more thick and then not as thick was how long you blended or left something out of the ingredients. It is best to blend it until it is like a paste. Just don't put too much batter in the pan and allow it to rise and it should turn out fine. Also...wait to take it out of the oven until the top is brown. Hope this helps!

    Bread turned out great.

    Tips: Have everything i.e., eggs at room temperature

    Use warm water at 110 degrees, add sugar and stir, add yeast but don't stir and put in warm draft free location - I use oven heated to about 90 degrees for 15 minutes. Put dough in well greased pans on cookie sheet, cover with clean cloth and put in oven at 80 degrees to rise. A pan of hot water on bottom of oven keeps it warm. When risen carefully remove from oven and preheat oven. Carefully remove cloth and put pans in middle rack of oven. Cook for 35 min.

    I use this recipe all the time, in fact I have 'modified' it for use in my bread machine. I always get a light loaf that reminds me of white wheat bread. I also use this to make hot dog and hamburger buns.

    May I also get a copy of the bread machine version from you?

    This has been the best white bread recipe I've found. I just got a new bread machine and would like to use this recipe. Would you mind sharing your modifications with me? Thanks!

    I find that the bread doesn't collapse if I cook it longer. I am up to about 35-40 minutes. I even checked the temperature of my oven to make sure it wasn't off.

    Bread was certainly delicious. Not the same textures as wheat white bread, but still good. However, the mixture was very runny comparted to dough.

    This is the most delicious Gluten-Free bread I have ever eaten. And, it is a reasonably simple recipe. I did substitute OLIVE OIL for the butter and it is still great. I made half of it in a bread loaf pan, and the other half I put in 4" cake pans and made 6 rolls for burgers, etc. WONDERFUL!!!! Thank you so much for this recipe.

    Oh, I forgot to add, it takes longer to bake. I believe the 15-20 minutes is meant for the rolls; and, I would go for the 20 minutes or longer. A loaf must bake much longer, or it will fall... (Been there, done that!) It is well worth the experimentation to find the correct baking time. I forgot to time it, so I just checked for doneness...darker brown than I would usually consider it to be done. Then, I buttered the top as it came out of the oven. YUMMY!!!

    I am a professional chef, and we are experimenting with Xanthan Gum. This recipes seemed great. Both times I carefully followed the above recipe (pastry requires precision) and both times they flopped and were heavy and doughy inside. I had to bring to the attention of my bosses that the oven is surely faulty? But - to eliminate factors, I have decided to use this exact recipe for the THIRD time in my oven at home tonight. Will report back tomorrow.

    Charlene,

     

    You need to share your modifications so that the rest of us can enjoy a nice light white bread.

    This bread came out great! Very yummy! I'm glad that I read threw the other comments first. The only thing that really made a difference for me was the cook time. It really does need about 35 minutes over 20 - 25. It did seem like it pulled in a bit on the sides but other wise I had no problems. If you live in a large city go to the Asian markets for the rice flour and tapioca flour. They are much cheaper there. Usually less than $2 a bag.

    What are your modifications to the gluten-free soft white bread recipe (to use with our bread machine)?

    Did this work the 3rd time? I am just starting to cook gluten-free for the grandkids and would like a good bread recipe!

    I'm a sucker for good gluten-free cornbread. I'm an even bigger sucker for this gluten-free bacon and cheese corn-bread.
    I like to make this with Bob's Red Mill Gluten-free Cornbread Mix, but you can use your favorite kind. You might need to play with the recipe a bit to get it just right, but when you do, the pan will be empty, and the family happy and smiling. I like to serve this with gluten-free stews or chili for a sure-fire dinner hit.
    The corn, bacon and cheese work well to offset any dryness that so often goes with gluten-free baked goods. I like to serve this fresh out of the oven and slathered with butter and honey, alongside my favorite stew, soup, or chili.
    Ingredients:
    Bob's Red Mill Gluten-free Cornbread Mix
    2 eggs
    1 ½ cups milk
    1/3 cup of olive oil<...>

    Gluten-free Sourdough Starter
    Celiac.com 12/27/2012 - Making sourdough 'starter' is the first step in the traditional fermentation process for sourdough bread. You begin the process by “growing” strains of lactobacillus bacteria and yeast together in what bakers call the 'starter.' When the 'starter' is added to flour, the organisms produce enzymes that break down the gluten protein in the flour in a process called 'hydrolysis.' Hydrolysis is the breakdown of larger particles into smaller ones, specifically amino acids.
    Some studies show that these amino acids are no longer toxic to individuals who are sensitive to gluten. Basically, these cultures partially digest the wheat or other grains; doing part of the stomach's job in advance part of the digestive process.
    When you add the gut healing benefits of ...
