Cuisine: American
Serves: 1 loaf
Ingredients
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 cups tapioca starch
  • 1 cup sorghum flour
  • ⅓ cup dairy-free soy, rice, or coconut milk powder (can sub a vegan protein powder)
  • 1½ teaspoons xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons oil
  • ½ teaspoon cider vinegar
  • Dairy-free buttery spread or oil, for brushing
Instructions
  1. Pour the water into a large bowl. Sprinkle in the sugar and yeast, and let it sit and proof for 5 minutes. If the yeast is fresh enough, it should foam or lightly bubble.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the tapioca starch, sorghum flour, “milk” powder, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and vinegar until combined.
  4. When the yeast mix is foamy, and the flour mixture and the egg mixture. Stir or beat with a hand mixer on low until the flour is incorporated. Continue to stir and beat until smooth.
  5. If using a bread machine, scrape the batter into your bread maker insert and set the machine for sweet bread with a medium crust. After the final kneading, smooth the top with a spatula. Remove the bread to a wire rack immediately when finished or it will turn soggy. Brush the top of the crust with a little butter spread or oil to keep it soft.
  6. If using an oven, scrape the batter into a greased loaf pan lined with parchment paper (hanging over the long sides for easier release). Lightly cover the pan and let the batter rise in a warm space for about 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Bake the bread for 10 minutes then tent it with foil. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until browned and firm. Remove the bread to a wire rack immediately when finished or it will turn soggy. Brush the top of the crust with a little butter spread or oil to keep it soft.
