No Knead Gluten Free Bread
A simple and delicious gluten-free bread that requires no kneading and minimal fuss, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (Ensure it contains xanthan gum, or add 1 teaspoon separately.) Use a blend suitable for baking.
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 tablespoon sugar (or honey) Honey can be replaced with maple syrup for a vegan option.
Wet Ingredients
- 1.5 cups warm water (Make sure it’s warm but not hot.)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil For added flavor.
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, salt, instant yeast, and sugar.
- Pour in the warm water and olive oil. Stir until well combined. The mixture will be quite sticky — that’s totally normal!
- Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let the dough sit for about 2-3 hours at room temperature.
Baking
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and place a Dutch oven or a pot with a lid inside to heat up.
- Carefully pour the dough into the hot pot (use parchment paper if desired for easier removal). Cover with the lid and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and bake for another 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
- Let it cool on a wire rack before slicing. Dive in while it’s still warm if you can hold off!
Notes
Bread keeps well at room temperature for about 2-3 days, or wrap tightly and refrigerate for up to a week. Freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven or toaster to enjoy fresh-baked taste.
