GF Bread Machine


 After much research I have purchased a bread machine in order to perfect GF bread baking.  I am happy to report that it was wildly successful! This recipe is gluten, dairy, soy, rice, nut-FREE!

I ordered a Cuisinart CBK-100 Programmable Breadmaker.
It was less than $100.  There are many more fancy ones available on the market, but this one seemed to be the most economical choice that also has a specific Gluten Free setting.  


I followed this incredible and well tested bread recipe by the Gluten Free Goddess.  
My only substitution was using organic canola oil in place of olive oil.  I also added an extra Tbs of honey.  The results were stunning.  This bread is so delicious.  Everyone in the family loved it.
 Delicious Gluten-Free Bread Recipe
First- whisk together your dry ingredients and set aside:

1 1/2 cups sorghum flour
1 cup tapioca starch or potato starch (not potato flour!)
1/2 cup GF millet flour
2 teaspoons xanthan gum
1/ 1/4 teaspoons fine sea salt
1 packet rapid dry yeast or 2 1/4 teaspoons

Pour the liquid ingredients into the bread machine pan first:
1 1/4 cups warm water (at 110 to 115ºF) 
3 tablespoons organic canola oil
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
2 organic free-range eggs

Gently pour the mixed dry ingredients on top of the liquid.

Set your bread machine program for 1.5 loaf medium crust. Set to the Gluten-Free cycle.
If you like a crusty loaf (or your past experience results in a gummy center/fallen top) remove the bread from the pan and place it in the oven at 350ºF for an additional 10 minutes- keep an eye on it and don't let it get too brown. It should be a light golden color.

Cool the loaf before slicing for best results.
