Gluten-free Oat Bread

Ingredients
  • 50gms Potato Starch (not flour)
  • 150gms Pamela’s Baking Mix
  • 100gms Corn Starch
  • 50gms Gluten-free Rolled Oats (Bob’s Red Mill does gluten-free rolled oats)
  • 25gms Psyllium Husk Powder
  • 2tsp active (instant) yeast
  • 1tp salt
  • 1tbsp sugar
  • 25gms butter / margarine
—–
  • 375ml hot water (not too hot)
  • 30ml milk
  • 15ml olive oil
  • 30ml yogurt
  • 10ml apple cider vinegar
Instructions
  1. Mix all the dry ingredients together. Rub in the butter.
  2. Mix all the wet ingredients together and check that they are about the right temperature for activating yeast.
  3. Add the wet to the dry and beat well for about two minutes – it will see very very wet to begin with and as the psyllium husk absorbs the water it become stiffer and more dough-like.
  4. Cover bowl with tea-towel and leave to rise for 1-2 hours (until doubled).
  5. Knock-back and shape into a loaf and place in loaf tin, or on baking sheet. Cover with tea towel again and leave until doubled in size.
  6. Bake in a hot oven (240C or 425F) for 45-60 minutes (cover the top with foil after 15-20 minutes).
  7. Remove from tin and place on cooling rack – cover with tea-towel while it cools.
