Ingredients

  • Dry Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups sweet white sorghum flour
  • 1/4 cup tapioca starch
  • 1/4 cup potato starch (not potato flour which is very different)
  • 2/3 cup powdered dry rice milk (or other powdered milk)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon xanthan gum
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
  • 1 teaspoon Clear Jel ("Clear Jel A" is powdered and found at health food stores)
  • 4 1/2 teaspoons fast rising yeast (do not sub regular yeast)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • Wet Ingredients
  • 3 duck eggs, beaten lightly (or 4 large chicken eggs)
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • boiling water, used to aid the rising process

Method

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees fahrenheit.
  • Fill a medium saucepan with water and bring to boil.
  • Prepare bread pans by greasing and flouring with gluten-free flour.
  • Mix all dry ingredients together well with whisk.
  • Mix all liquid ingredients together.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients together until well incorporated. Dough will have a thick, batter-like consistency.
  • Pour batter into one bread pan about 3/4 full and pour the rest into the other bread pan.
  • Turn oven off.
  • Pour boiling water into large glass dish and place it on the bottom rack of the oven.
  • Put bread pans on the top rack of the oven and close the door. Remember that the oven must be switched off at this point.
  • Allow the dough to rise for about 45-50 minutes.
  • Remove the bread pans form the oven and heat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
  • Bake on the center rack of the oven for 40-50 minutes or until the loaf is golden brown. I use a convection oven and my loaves are done after about 25 minutes. Do not let the crust become too dark or the bread will be crumbly.
  • Remove loaves from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes.
  • Remove by gently loosening the bread from the pans with a knife.
  • Cool loaves covered with a dish towel for 30 minutes before slicing.
  • Hope you enjoy!
