Ingredients

For the Sourdough Starter (If you don’t already have one)

  • 100 g ¾ cup gluten-free flour (e.g., rice flour or buckwheat flour)
  • 100 ml ⅓ cup + 1 tbsp lukewarm water

For the Bread

  • 250 g 2 cups gluten-free flour (e.g., a blend of rice flour, potato starch, and tapioca starch)
  • 200 g ¾ cup gluten-free sourdough starter
  • 200 ml ⅔ cup lukewarm water
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar for structure
  • 1 tsp baking powder optional, for extra fluffiness

Instructions

Preparing the Sourdough Starter (if needed)

  • Mix 100 g of gluten-free flour with 100 ml of lukewarm water in a jar.
  • Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 24 hours, stirring it twice a day.
  • Feed the starter daily with 50 g of gluten free flour and 50 ml of water.
  • After 5–7 days, the starter should become bubbly and ready to use.

Mixing the Bread Dough

  • In a large bowl, combine the gluten free flour, salt, and baking powder.
  • Add the sourdough starter, lukewarm water, and apple cider vinegar.
  • Mix until the dough becomes smooth and slightly sticky. If the dough is too dry, add a small amount of water.

Letting the Dough Rise

  • Shape the dough into a loaf and place it in a greased or parchment-lined loaf pan.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm spot for 4–6 hours, or until it has visibly expanded.

Baking the Bread

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  • Bake the loaf for 50–60 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown.
  • Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Pro Tip: Wrap the slice in foil before reheating for an even softer texture.
With a little love and these simple steps, your homemade bread will always taste fresh and delicious. Enjoy every bite – and don't forget to check out more recipes on Dinnerteller.com!
