Gluten Free Rice Bread
About this recipe:
A yeasted bread made using rice flour, ideal for sandwiches and toasting. The actual rising time will depend on the ambient temperature. Slices of rice bread can be wrapped and frozen for eating another day.
Equipment:
500g/1lb bread tin and 2 x mixing bowls
Ingredients:
250g FREEE Rice Flour
1 tsp FREEE Xanthan Gum
2 tsp quick yeast
1 tsp sugar
½ tsp salt
300ml tepid water
1 tbsp oil
oil, for tin
Method:
220ËšC, Fan 200ËšC, 425ËšF, Gas 7
- Rub some oil around the inside of a 500g/1lb bread tin.
- Measure the rice flour, xanthan gum, quick yeast, sugar and salt into a bowl, stir to combine.
- Sieve the flour blend into another bowl.
- Add the water and beat well to make a smooth, thick batter.
- Sprinkle the oil over the batter.
- Run a spatula around the edges of the batter to bring together a sloppy mass and turn the mixture over a few times in the bowl.
- Tip the mixture into the prepared tin and smooth the top.
- Invert a large mixing bowl over the tin and leave in a warm place until the bread has risen just below the top of the tin, 45-90 minutes.
- Pre-heat the oven twenty minutes before you are going to bake.
- Bake for 55-60 minutes.
- Turn the loaf out of the tin and leave to cool on a wire rack.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.

Replaced xanthan gum with 3 eggs and slightly less water. Absolutely delicious and easy recipe. Nice to have a gluten free recipe with just rice flour.

Hi, I tried your recipe with a couple of changes and it tuned out really well. 1. I used 500 ml soy milk unsweetened warmed in the microwave then added the yeast and 1 T honey instead of sugar and let it sit several minutes. 2. I added 7 T finely ground flax seed to the rice flour along with the salt and deleted the oil. I also deleted the Xanthan Gum. 3. I mixed the wet with the dry ingredients using dough hook beaters on my mixer. I lined a bread pan with parchment paper and placed the dough in the pan smoothing it out, then I put the pan in the cold oven, set the oven at 175° C turned it on. After 15 min., I covered the loaf with parchment paper and continued baking for a total time of 70 min. The crust is a very nice golden brown and when I sliced a heal off the bread it held nicely together. It has a very nice flavor and I'm looking forward to trying it again after it cools completely. I think your recipe is a terrific for people like me who need to stop eating wheat bread but find it very hard to resist.

It seems that bread made from rice flour can never be really fluffy and light, like a supermarket loaf. As I have trouble generally with some of the starches they tend to use (maize/corn especially, tapioca maybe), I avoid "gluten free" bread flours. This recipe worked for me first time. Moist, fairly dense but not too dense. Fan oven @ 200°C, and having read here that some people had trouble with stickiness in the middle, I baked for the full 60 minutes, then removed the foil and left in the oven for a little longer whilst it cooled down. No stickiness left in the middle. I also sprinkled some sesame seeds on the top before baking. Really, really delicious. My partner even said so too so it must be good :)

I make mine without a xanxam gum. I aim for the cake consistency and let it rise for 60 min. Mix it again and let it rise for further 30mins and bake. Perfect bread everytime. No measurements, sorry. I usually just estimate

I've noticed some of the reviews mention the bread not being cooked correctly on the inside even when following recipe... but I see no answers to why this maybe happening? Would like to know before trying recipe please

I tried this bread recipe for the first time today. Like Mr Ellis the outside of the loaf was good & crispy but the inside was undercooked, badly. I followed the recipe to the letter, including the cooking time. Can anyone suggest what I did wrong?

Tried this in my Panasonic Breadmaker (SD-255) on the Gluten Free program (Dark Crust). First time I have attempted to make bread with rice flour. Slightly heavier than wheat flour bread. I will probably increase the salt to 1.5 tsp next time. But nevertheless the bread came out perfect.

I made this, followed it to the letter and the crust was superb. Unfortunately the rest was undercooked. It is doughy, but just about edible. Is there an experienced baker who can explain where I or the recipe went wrong?
