I love bread, my other half calls it my drug of choice, the trouble is I don’t work well with Wheat. Coupled with the intense memories I have of baking bread with my mum means that I find it very hard not to bake and eat bread. Hence my search for the perfect gluten free home made loaf. This is a good gluten free recipe, it makes a nice bread and is even nicer toasted and piled with lots of butter makes a lovely start to the day coupled with a really good coffee!. Note the 2 Tsp of salt in the recipe as I find that shop bought gluten free bread tends to be low on flavour.

Whisk the eggs with the vinegar gently
Pour the eggs into the flour, together with the seed gel, and the milk and stir to form a wet dough
pour into an oiled bowl, cover the bowl with cling and leave aside in a warm place to rise for 2 hours (it wont rise hugely so don’t be
disappointed!)
Shape into a loaf and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Cover and leave for 30 minutes.
Bake for 30-40 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
This is delicious toasted and my favourite is with boiled eggs and Avocado.
I’m so glad to see a homemade gluten-free recipe for bread. I’ve been gluten-free for about a year now, and I’ve been eating one brand that I like. The trouble is is that my honey is a baker. I constantly smell fresh baked bread in our oven and it drives me insane! He said to find a good recipe and he’ll make it for me. Will give yours a try! Thanks for sharing!
That must be torture smelling all that baking😀. I hope you like this, thanks for stopping by. Grainne
It IS torture! I’m sure you understand. 🙂
