This gluten-free bread recipe is perfect for making soft, fluffy, and delicious white sandwich bread without any dairy. Ideal for those with dietary restrictions, it’s quick, easy, and perfect for sandwiches, toast, or as a side dish.

Ingredients

2 ½ cups all-purpose gluten-free flour

1 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder

2 ¼ teaspoons rapid-rise yeast or 1 packet

¼ cup olive oil

¼ cup honey

1 ¼ teaspoon apple cider vinegar

1 ½ cup warm water

3 large egg whites, room temperature

1 ⅛ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Adjust the top oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Prepare your bread loaf pan by coating it with cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the dry ingredients: gluten-free flour blend, baking powder, and instant yeast.
  4. Add the wet ingredients—olive oil, honey, apple cider vinegar, and warm water—to the dry ingredients and mix on low for 1 minute.
  5. Then, add the egg whites and salt to the dough and mix on medium for 1 minute until the mixture resembles a thick cake batter.
  6. Transfer the gluten-free bread dough into the greased bread pan and cover with beeswax wrap or plastic wrap sprayed with cooking spray.
  7. Place a kitchen towel over the pan and let the bread rise in a warm spot for 30 minutes.
  8. Remove the towel and plastic wrap. Position the bread horizontally on the middle rack in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes, until the top is golden brown.
  9. Check the bread with a toothpick to ensure it’s cooked through.
  10. Let the loaf cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then remove it from the pan and place it on a cooling rack. Allow it to cool thoroughly before slicing.

Notes

  • If you need an egg-free version, substitute the 3 egg whites with an egg replacer like flaxseed meal mixed with water.
  • For a sweeter bread, you can increase the honey or add maple syrup.
  • Feel free to add seeds or herbs to the dough for extra flavor and texture.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days, or freeze slices for up to 3 months.
  • To reheat, toast a slice or warm it in the oven at 350°F for 10 minutes.
