Bread Machine Recipes Excerpted from The Bread Lovers Bread Machine Cookbook by Beth Hensperger
Gluten-Free Breads
Hints for creating great gluten-free breads: Mix dry ingredients with a whisk until evenly combined. If you have a Welbilt machine, add an extra 2 Tbsp of liquid to each recipe. Xanthan gum & Guar gum can be used interchangeably. Cider vinegar, added w/wet ingredients, acts as a preservative in the baked loaf. Do not use the Delay Timer, as gluten-free recipes contain egg for extra leavening. Dough consistency is a very moist batter. These breads tend to be flat on top. Cool bread completely...slice w/serrated knife so it holds together properly.
NOTE: Without Xanthan gum or Guar gum, you will have a flat bread with no structure.
