Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour Make sure it has xanthan gum, or add 1 teaspoon separately.
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (or honey)
Wet Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups warm water Not hot!
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, salt, instant yeast, and sugar.
  2. Pour in the warm water and olive oil. Stir until you have a sticky mixture.
  3. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let the dough sit for about 2–3 hours at room temperature.
Baking
  1. Once risen, preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Place a Dutch oven (or pot with a lid) inside to heat up.
  3. Carefully pour the dough into the hot pot, using parchment paper to help with removal.
  4. Cover with the lid and bake for 30 minutes.
  5. Remove the lid and bake for another 10–15 minutes until it’s golden brown.
  6. Let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

For best results, use warm water to activate the yeast. Let it rise longer for fluffier bread. Can add herbs or garlic powder for extra flavor. Store in the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
