A recipe from my mom with help from Grok

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups King Arthur Gluten Free Measure for Measure Flour (Amazon)
  • 2 teaspoons Xanthan gum (Amazon)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (Amazon or Amazon)
  • 2-1/4 teaspoons instant yeast (Meijer)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (Amazon)
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil (Amazon)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (Costco or Costco)
Morton Iodized Sea Salt
Chosen avocado oil

 


Dishes you'll have to wash:

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Bread machine (this one is fantastic and has a ceramic-coated pan, which works a lot better than PTFE for nonstick for gluten free - Amazon)

 


Instructions:

  1. Add dry ingredients to bread machine - flour, xanthan gum, sugar, yeast, salt.
  2. Add wet ingredients to bread machine - water, avocado oil, vinegar.
  3. Start bread machine on gluten free bread setting.
  4. When done, remove from bread machine and remove the mixing paddle from bread.

Changes made 2026-01-15: changed amount of water from 1-1/2 cups to 3 cups because it works much better, specified regular temperature water instead of warm water.
