A light and tender gluten-free sandwich bread that slices well and toasts beautifully, perfect for quick weeknight baking.

  • Total Time: 100 minutes
  • Yield: 10–12 slices

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (blend with rice, tapioca, potato starch)
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (or 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder)
  • 1 cup lukewarm milk (110°F/43°C) or dairy-free milk alternative
  • 2 tablespoons softened butter (or oil)
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, instant yeast, sugar, salt, and xanthan gum (or psyllium husk).
  2. Warm the milk and dissolve the softened butter and eggs in it.
  3. Combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and beat for 3–5 minutes until smooth and slightly sticky.
  4. Let the dough rise in a warm spot for 45–60 minutes until puffy.
  5. Transfer the dough to a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 35–45 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 200–205°F (93–96°C).
  7. Allow to cool fully on a rack before slicing.

Notes

For a crisper crust, place a small oven-safe dish of hot water on the bottom rack during the first 10 minutes of baking. Brush the top with melted butter immediately after baking for added flavor.
