Ingredients

  • 450 g Gluten Free Self-Raising Flour (eg. Odlums trytimil)*
  • 0 tsp SuperValu Salt
  • 350 ml Water
  • 1 tsp Xanthan Gum
  • 20 g Yeast or 10g of Fresh Yeast

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C/300°F/Gas Mark 2
  2. Grease a 2lb loaf tin.
  3. Sieve the flour into a large mixing bowl. It is vitally important that the flour be sieved as it tends to clump together.
  4. Add in the salt, xanthan gum and dried yeast at this stage also.
  5. Pour in the water and mix until a soft “sticky” dough has been achieved.
  6. Leave the yeast to activate for 40 – 60 minutes.
  7. Pour into the previously prepared loaf tin and pop into the oven to bake.
  8. Bake for 45 minutes in the tin and then invert the bread and pop it back into the tin upside down and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes to firm up the crust on the underneath.
