Gluten-Free Flax Bread

Description: My own recipe, comes out fluffy and nice and need not be frozen. Healthy and full of nutrition, as opposed to rice flour based breads. Can be vegan* This was the foundation recipe of my cookbook - after all of these (and so many others) fantastic reviews, I was inspired. Please check out my book at http://laurie.ecrater.com

Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 cups gluten-free flour
• 1/4 cup garfava flour
• 1/2 cup potato starch
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1/4 cup flax seed meal
• 2 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum
• 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 eggs
• 2 egg whites
• 1 cup water or 1 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 teaspoons vinegar

Steps:

1. Combine flours, flax, starches, gum, yeast, salt.
2. In the mixer, combine wet ingredients, then add the dry.
3. Scrape the sides, and mix on medium for 4-5 minutes.
4. Pour into 9x5 pan, and let rise to top of pan (took about 80 minutes). I always, always let it rise in a turned off oven.
5. Bake at 350F for about 40 minutes.
6. Remove from pan, cool, and slice.
7. *use egg replacer of choice to create a vegan loaf, as well as an alternative sweetener for the honey.
