- makes two loaves in under an hour

----- Recipe ------

2 T. yeast [2 envelopes Fleischmann's]
1 T. sugar
1 1/4 c. warm water

(mix in glass container like Pyrex pitcher until it gets bubbly)

2 c. GF all-purpose flour
1 c. cornstarch (it calls for tapioca, but didn't have any)
1/4 c. dry milk powder
2 tsp. xanthan gum
1 1/2 tsp. salt

(put flour mixture in large bowl and stir well)

1 T. room temp. butter
2 whole eggs & one yolk [ save the white for egg wash ] - or leave it out
1 tsp. apple cider vinegar

(mix this together)

Now, in the large bowl containing GF flour mixture, add yeast mixture.
Next, add egg mixture.

Beat all until combined ... it will start to get sticky-soft.

On a greased cookie sheet (large), spoon bread dough into 2 loaves. If really sticky (mine was), put water on hands to form loaves. Brush with the egg white you saved -- all nice and beaten foamy! Cut slits across the bread.

Put into a COLD oven. Set temp. to 425 deg. and bake for 30-35 min.

IF it starts to brown too much, cover with aluminum foil.

Remove to a rack to cool ...

Says 10 min. ..... well, it smells too blasted good to let it sit there!

Pull off a hunk .. add butter or dip in Olive oil w/herbs!

Ah, pure heaven !!

- one problem
- it doesn't last very long
- with supper
- French toast in the morning
- afternoon snack with Cinnamon/Vanilla Papaya Jam

- must make more and freeze some
- at least it is good & finding a gluten free bread recipe that works is a job ~
