I’ve always had a penchant for baking bread – and especially since we’ve been spending so much time at home this year, I’ve been testing and experimenting with so many bread recipes.

Gluten

In the past few months, I’ve made gluten-free no-knead bread (beautiful and rustic!), rosemary focaccia (Juan absolutely loves this), easy gluten-free naan bread (a huge favorite among readers!), among plenty of other bread recipes that I’m still tinkering with and testing out.

One of my pet peeves with buying storebought gluten-free bread or baked gluten-free products is that they tend to be expensive, dense, or dry (and many times all of the above). That means that by making my own loaf, I can enjoy fluffy tender bread that is easy and inexpensive to make!

I can tell you with all certainty that this yeast bread recipe I’m sharing today (adapted from a recipe by Mama Knows Gluten Free) is probably one of the best gluten-free bread recipes I’ve ever made (and tried)! You probably won’t miss regular wheat bread anymore after trying this!

A main reason why many gluten-free breads turn out dry is because there is not enough liquid in the dough. In this recipe, the total wet ingredients are in roughly the same quantity as the dry ingredients (almost a 1:1 ratio). While this results in a relatively wet and shaggy dough, it’s also the reason why this bread comes out flexible, soft and fluffy.

The eggs in the recipe, along with the apple cider vinegar and baking powder and yeast, also help the bread to rise more and achieve a dome-shaped top (whereas gluten-free breads without eggs generally do not hold the dome shape well and are often flat on top). If you wish to make a vegan loaf, here’s a well-loved gluten-free vegan bread.

Here’s a visual overview of the ingredients required to make this delicious gluten-free bread. This recipe only requires 10 ingredients. Dry ingredients include all-purpose gluten-free flour, xanthan gum (leave out if your flour blend already has it), baking powder, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Wet ingredients include vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, non-dairy milk, and eggs.

In a large bowl, whisk the all-purpose gluten-free flour, xanthan gum (if using), baking powder, instant yeast, sugar, and salt together to combine.

Add the vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, warm milk and use a hand mixer or stand mixer to mix for one minute until combined. Add the beaten eggs and mix for another minute until you get a dough that resembles thick cake batter (the dough will be wet and sticky, but that’s completely fine).

Transfer the gluten-free bread dough to the prepared loaf pan and use a spatula to smooth out the top of the dough.

Cover the dough with a kitchen towel, and let it rise for the next 30 minutes in a warm place that’s not exposed to drafts or wind, until it has roughly doubled in size.

Once the dough is done rising, lace the loaf pan on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.

Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool down for 10 minutes in the pan before removing it to finish cooling on a rack (this will prevent the bottom from getting soggy).

Tip: If the bottom is not brown enough for your liking, you can simply bake the loaf for another 10-minutes bottom-side-up on the middle rack at 375F to brown it a little (it’s mainly for aesthetic purposes, and even if you don’t do it, the bread will still taste just as good).

Allow the loaf to fully cool before slicing (this is important as the loaf may disintegrate if it’s still hot when you slice).

If you don’t plan on eating it immediately, gluten-free bread is best stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where it will keep for 5 to 7 days. I find it best to leave it unsliced and slice it only when you wish to eat it so it retain as much moisture as possible.

Yes! You can definitely freeze this gorgeous loaf of bread (especially if you plan to bake a few and keep on hand for future use). Once baked, let the bread cool completely before wrapping it in plastic wrap (unsliced) and freeze it in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you do decide to use the bread, I recommend thawing the loaf overnight in the refrigerator before slicing into it and toasting.

Many have asked which flour blend I use, since the flour blend makes a big difference in how the consistency of the bread turns out. Since I live in Buenos Aires, I use an all-purpose gluten-free flour brand from Argentina called Señor de Sipan, which is made primarily of corn starch, rice flour, and xanthan gum. For those of you who have access to Amazon, a good substitute is King Arthur Flour gluten-free all purpose flour or Pilsbury gluten-free flour.

This soft and fluffy gluten-free bread is so insanely versatile, you can literally have it alone (either toasted or not), or make French toast, or eat it with other foods, both sweet and savory. Here are some of our favorite foods to eat with it:

Perfect Bread Machine Gluten Free Bread

The best soft and fluffy gluten-free bread that is moist, light, and oh so good! Once you make this, you’ll never buy another loaf of storebought bread again! You’ll want to eat it with everything – think avocado toast, or spread with jam, or to make a sandwich or French toast. Dairy-free too.

Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Blend: I highly recommend using a good-quality gluten-free all-purpose flour blend that is made of lighter flours/starches (such as rice flour, tapioca starch, corn starch, or potato starch) to ensure a fluffier and lighter final texture. I do NOT recommend using gluten-free flour blends that include heavier flours (such as garbanzo bean flour) as that will result in a densier final texture.

Xanthan Gum: Xanthan gum is a replacement for gluten in gluten-free baked goods, and is what helps to bind the ingredients together. If your gluten-free flour blend does not include xanthan gum, make sure you include it to get the best results.

Yeast Free Gluten Free Vegan Bread

Baking Powder: To make this gluten-free bread light and fluffy, one of the secret ingredients is baking powder to help give the dough extra rise (on top of using yeast). If you are Celiac or gluten-intolerant, make sure to use certified gluten-free baking powder.

Instant Yeast: I like using instant yeast because there’s no pre-activation time required. If you are not using instant yeast, make sure to activate the yeast according to the packet instructions.

Gluten

Sugar: I used granulated white sugar in this recipe. The sugar is required as “food” for the yeast to feed on and activate it to create the gases required to make the dough rise. By the end of the process, the sugar would have been consumed by the yeast and hence will not make the bread sweet.

Sunflower Oil: I like using sunflower oil because I always have a bottle of it on hand. You can also use other neutral-flavored vegetable oils in equal quantities. Alternatively, if you are not lactose-intolerant, you may also use melted butter in equal quantities.

Apple Cider Vinegar: The apple cider vinegar creates an acidic environment that helps the gluten-free bread dough to rise even more. If you don’t have ACV on hand, you can also use white vine vinegar, rice wine vinegar, or fresh lemon juice.

Almond Milk: I used my 5-minute homemade almond milk for this recipe, but you can also use my homemade cashew milk, or other non-dairy milk of your choice. If you are not lactose-intolerant, you can also use normal dairy milk instead. I find that using non-dairy milk gives the bread a richer taste, but I’ve also made it with water instead of milk and it comes out delicious as well! Make sure the temperature of the milk or water is between 105 to 115F, as the warmth is required to activate the yeast, but if the liquid is too hot, it might kill the yeast.

Eggs: The eggs provide extra structure and also help the ingredients to bind better together. I have not
