Don't have a mixer? Don't feel like using a mixer? Mixer already messy in the sink from another project and don't feel like washing it quite yet? Fancy a bit of an arm workout? This recipe is for you! This makes one lovely, light and fluffy loaf of gluten-free bread! Throw it all in a bowl and just mix and mix and fold with your spatula or spoon until it's nice and smooth. I found 4-5 minutes does it! Let rise and bake for a delicious GF loaf made in one bowl. Enjoy!
Cooled bread slices so nicely. And I find this recipe turns out so nice and light and airy. Yum.
Toasted with homemade vanilla peach jam. Yum!
Hand-mixed GF Bread Loaf
Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a bread loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, stir or whisk together the dry ingredients:
1 cup tapioca flour/starch
3/4 cup brown rice flour
3 Tbsp potato starch
1/4 cup GF steel cut oats (If you don't use these, use 3 Tbsp less water)
1 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
1 1/2 tsp quick-rise/rapid-rise yeast
1 1/2 tsp sugar
3/4 tsp salt
Add and mix in, folding over and over until nice and smooth:
3/4 cup warm water
1/2 cup egg white
1 egg
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Spoon into a parchment-lined bread loaf pan. Let rise in a warm location covered loosely by an upside-down cookie sheet until fully doubled in size. Bake at 375 F for 60 minutes. Remove from pan. Let cool and slice! Leftovers can be sliced and frozen. Enjoy!
Flattened into a parchment-lined pan.
Covered by an upside down pan, but allowing room to rise. Ready to bake!
Fresh from the oven!
Cooling, then ready to slice and eat.
This bread looks great, Kristin! How are the results different if you omit the oats?

I find the texture to be similar in terms of lightness of the bread, it just won't have the little bit of texture added from the GF steel cut oats. I just like the little bit of texture, but I've made it both ways many times.
