Have you discovered that you have a gluten intolerance? Are you shopping around for bread alternatives which you are allowed to eat? You’ve come to the right place. With most of the Test Your Intolerance team proclaiming themselves to be Bake-Off experts, you can take a look at one of the team’s favourite gluten-free bread recipe which you can use to ensure you make tasty gluten-free bread.
Below is the recipe for a very straightforward loaf of bread which you can have following a gluten-free diet. You can bake this and lather it in butter (there are healthier options) and you can eat bread comfortably knowing your symptoms will subside and you will be intolerance-free (in the future!).
Simply take 400g of gluten-free white flour which you can find in most Supermarkets, alongside 1 teaspoon of salt! Adding that needed 280ml of Buttermilk, you will never look back as you taste some of the nicest bread you will ever know! Factor in some dried yeast to help make the bread rise, and your intolerances will be thing of the past, as will those symptoms of an intolerance you are were constantly suffering with. Of course, as with every bit of baking you do, don’t forget to add some healthy and nutritious eggs (a healthy amount!) to help add some taste and texture to your meal. One thing that many often forget until they are halfway through their recipe is Olive Oil. So, make sure you stock up the cupboards and prepare.
The What, Why and How of cooking Gluten-Free Bread
Lastly, baking for an hour will see your bread until golden and well risen. We then suggest it to leave it cool before you cut it out.
