Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups warm milk (,dairy-free use cashew, almond or coconut milk)
• ¼ cup unsalted butter (,dairy-free use Earth Balance or Smart Balance)
• 2 eggs (,beaten)
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• ½ cup honey
• 3 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour
  (Preferred Pillsbury gluten-free flour. Not all gluten-free flours are created equal. You may experience different baking results depending on the gluten-free flour blend you choose. Bob’s Red Mill 1 for 1 and King Arthur Measure for Measure state on their website and/or package that their blends are not recommended for yeast baking.)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 ½ teaspoons xanthan gum (,leave out if your flour already has it in it)
• 1 ¾ teaspoons rapid yeast/instant yeast (Preferred Fleischmann’s Bread Machine Instant Yeast)

Instructions

1. The first step in making bread in your bread machine is to add all the wet ingredients first to the bread baking pan.
2. Warm the milk and melt butter.
   You can combine this step and add the milk and butter to a large glass measuring cup and heat in the microwave.
3. Pour warm milk and melted butter in the bread baking pan.
4. Pour the honey into the bread baking pan.
5. Pour the beaten eggs into the bread baking pan.
6. Add the apple cider vinegar to the bread baking pan.
7. Now it’s time to add your dry ingredients.
8. Add the flour, salt, and xanthan gum (leave out if your flour already has it) to the bread baking pan.
9. The last step is to add your yeast.
10. First, make a little hole with your finger in the flour.
11. Pour the yeast into the hole.
12. Start the bread machine and set to the gluten-free setting.
13. As your bread machine is mixing, you may need to go in and scrape the sides down into the batter with a spatula.
14. The dough will be similar in texture to cake batter.
15. Your bread machine may be different and you may not need this step.
16. Cool before slicing. Enjoy!

Pro Tip

The best way to measure gluten-free flour is the “spoon & level” method. Using a spoon, scoop the flour into the measuring cup.  After you’ve spooned the flour into the measuring cup, use the back of a knife to level off the top of the measuring cup. Friends, please do not scoop the flour out of the bag with your measuring cup.
