SUE'S GLUTEN FREE BAKING @ HOME
Sue's Everyday White Bread
2 Large Loaves
see notes below regarding pans
3 cups white rice flour
1 ½ cups tapioca starch
1 cup corn starch
½ cup potato starch
2/3 cup skim milk powder
4 tsp guar gum
2 tsp salt
2 tsp gelatin powder (optional, but I usually use it)
4 tsp instant yeast
6 tbsp white sugar
3 cups warm water
2 tsp cider vinegar
2 eggs
2 eggs whites (1/2 cup)
½ cup butter (melted)
Combine dry ingredients and set aside.
In bowl of mixer combine 1 cup water, vinegar, sugar and yeast. Let sit for about 5 mins for yeast to bloom. Add eggs and egg whites until well blended.
With mixer on low add dry ingredients alternately with the remainder of the water until combined. Beat on medium for 4-6 minutes. Add butter and mix for another 2 minutes.
Raw dough will weigh approximately 1825g for the 2 loaves. Using a scale to weigh out the loaves is the easiest way to divide into loaves. Scoop dough into oiled pans. Let rise about 20 mins till dough has increased by about half.
Bake at 400° for 50-60 mins until internal temperature reaches 190°.
Raisin bread – add per loaf 2/3 cup raisins, 1 tsp sugar,
1-2 tsp cinnamon, pinch of nutmeg
Each loaf will make about 7 hamburger buns, or about 24 dinner rolls, or a combination.
Buns and rolls with bake in 15-20 minutes. Bake till golden on top. See Baking Favourites Page for information on hamburger bun rings, and scoops.

Note: Gluten free bread will not normally rise higher than the sides of the pan. If you use a traditional loaf pan, the bread will turn out small loaves. I use ¼ steam tray pans, which is what is normally used on buffets in restaurants. These can be used for many years. You can brush them with melted. butter, or spray them, and you should just wipe them out later, as the residual oil will make them non-stick over time. You can also line the base with a small piece of parchment paper to ensure the bottom doesn't stick. This paper will also be re-usable many times.
