Ingredients

Scale
  • 420 g (3 cups) gluten-free all-purpose flour blend with xanthan gum
  • 40 g (1/3 cup) tapioca starch
  • 12 g (2 tbsp) psyllium husk powder
  • 10 g (2 tsp) instant yeast
  • 12 g (2 tsp) fine salt
  • 30 g (2 tbsp) granulated sugar or honey
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 360 ml (1 1/2 cups) warm water (105–115°F / 40–46°C)
  • 60 ml (1/4 cup) neutral oil (vegetable or light olive oil)
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, tapioca starch, psyllium husk, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, warm water, oil, and vinegar.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a spatula until smooth.
  4. Transfer the batter to a greased 9×5 loaf pan, smooth the top, and cover loosely with plastic wrap.
  5. Let the batter proof in a warm spot for 45–60 minutes, until it rises above the rim of the pan.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Optionally, cover with foil for the first 25 minutes.
  7. Bake for 50–60 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 205–210°F (96–99°C).
  8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then unmold and cool completely on a rack before slicing.
