Ingredients
  • 3 cup GF Flour Mix (recipe
Directions
  1. 1
    Combine GF flour mix, 1/4 cup sugar, 3 1/2 tsp xanthan gum, 2/3 cup dry milk powder, 1 1/2 tsp salt, and 2 tsp sugar in the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer.
  2. 2
    In a small container, dissolve the 2 teaspoons of sugar in 1/2 cup lukewarm water. Add the yeast (1 1/2 cakes or 1 1/2 tbsp granules) and stir to combine. Let sit for a few minutes to activate.
  3. 3
    In a saucepan, combine 1/4 cup shortening and 1 1/4 cups water. Heat gently until the shortening is completely melted.
  4. 4
    With the mixer on low speed, blend the dry ingredients. Slowly pour in the warm shortening mixture and 1 tsp vinegar.
  5. 5
    Continue blending, then add 3 eggs to the mixture. Ensure the mixture feels slightly warm.
  6. 6
    Pour the activated yeast mixture into the bowl. Beat on the highest speed for 2 minutes until well incorporated.
  7. 7
    Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and a towel. Place in a warm spot and let the dough rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  8. 8
    Return the bowl to the mixer and beat on high for 3 minutes to degas the dough.
  9. 9
    Spoon the dough into 3 small (2 1/2" x 5") greased loaf pans, 1 large loaf pan, or divide into muffin tins for approximately 18 rolls.
  10. 10
    Let the shaped dough rise again until it is slightly above the top of the pans.
  11. 11
    Preheat oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC).
  12. 12
    Bake for 10 minutes. Then, cover the bread loosely with foil to prevent over-browning.
  13. 13
    Continue baking large loaves for 50 minutes longer, small loaves for slightly less time, and rolls for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Note

The dough texture will resemble cookie dough more than traditional bread dough; this is normal for gluten-free baking.

Bread is best served fresh from the oven but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or frozen for longer storage.

Ensure your GF flour mix is suitable for yeast breads, as some blends are designed for quick breads or cakes.
