Honey Wheat Bread

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Blend
• 1/2 cup Gluten-Free Wheat Starch
• 1/4 cup Tapioca Starch
• 1/4 cup Brown Rice Flour
• 2 1/4 teaspoons Instant Yeast
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
• 1 cup Warm Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Oats
• 2 tablespoons Water

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, wheat starch, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, yeast, salt, and xanthan gum.

2. 2

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk, honey, olive oil, egg, and apple cider vinegar.

3. 3

   Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth, slightly sticky dough forms. It should be thicker than a cake batter but not too stiff.

4. 4

   Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

5. 5

   Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

6. 6

   Gently deflate the dough and transfer it to the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top.

7. 7

   In a small bowl, mix water and oats. Brush the top of the bread with the water and sprinkle oats over the top.

8. 8

   Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, tent it with foil.

9. 9

   Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
