Bread Maker Bread

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

120 g sorghum flour

50 g white teff flour

110 g tapioca starch flour

40 g buckwheat flour

40 g potato starch flour

18 g milled flax seed

35 g ground psyllium husk grind in a blender (not 'psyllium powder')

8 g fine sea salt

24 g milk powder/coconut milk powder omit if using liquid milk in place of water (below)

5 g INSTANT Easy Bake fast action yeast (I use ) Make sure yeast is measured accurately (Note: This is an INSTANT yeast)

Wet Ingredients

3 large eggs UK large – Important : maximum liquid weight 168g (minimum 163g) – better to aim towards lower weight end of 163g in most machines

30 g sunflower or olive oil = 2 tbsp

24 g honey or maple syrup = 1 tbsp

5 g lemon juice = 1 tsp

325 g hand-warm water or milk (dairy or DF)

Directions

Dry Ingredients

Accurately weigh and mix together all the dry ingredients (except the yeast) and set aside. TIP : weigh into an airtight container and shake vigorously.

Put the pot/sachet of yeast next to the mixed dry ingredients so that it is not forgotten.

Wet Ingredients

Weigh all the wet ingredients into a large bowl and whisk through to combine with a hand whisk.

Bake in the Bread-Maker

Prepare the bread-maker, making sure the paddle is in place.

Transfer the wet ingredients to the bread-maker. (scrape the sides of the mixing bowl with a spatula to make sure all ingredients are fully transferred).

Add the yeast to the dry ingredients and give a quick mix through.

Add the dry ingredients to the bread-maker bowl on top of the wet ingredients.

Set the bread-maker to GF setting (I use 'medium crust') and press 'start'. (See NOTES re optional removing of paddle part-way through cycle).

Enjoy a cup of tea and read a magazine while your bread bakes, enjoying the smell of freshly yeast-baked loaf.

Once baked, remove from the bread-maker and carefully slide/jiggle out sideways to avoid squashing the top. Cool on a wire rack.

Carefully remove the paddle (if stuck inside) once cool.

Notes

* Note: nutritional information is an estimate & may vary according to portion size/ingredient variants.

This bread has been developed and tested using a Panasonic Bread Machine. If using an alternative machine, see main blog post for comparative cycle times.

To Avoid a ‘Paddle Hole’

If you want to avoid a hole at the base-middle of the baked bread when the bread-maker paddle is removed, keep a close eye on the progress of the bread-maker cycle. As soon as it finishes kneading, quickly and carefully scoop the dough to one side of the bread-maker bowl using a spatula or firm wooden/silicone spoon. Remove the paddle from the machine and push the dough back into the centre of the bowl, or spread evenly.
