Equipment
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 whisk
- 1 spatula
- 1 set measuring cups and spoons
- 1 loaf pan (9x5 inches)
- 1 oven
Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup warm water (110°F / 43°C)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine warm water and honey. Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- In another bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add the olive oil and apple cider vinegar to it. Mix well.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring with a spatula until a smooth batter forms.
- Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan, spreading it evenly. Use a spatula to smooth the top if necessary.
- Cover the loaf pan with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm area for about 30 minutes, or until it has slightly increased in size.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Once the dough has risen, place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the bread from the oven, let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
You can add herbs or seeds to the batter for extra flavor and texture.
Make sure all ingredients are labeled gluten-free to avoid cross-contamination.
