Gluten Free Beer Bread

Combine in a large bowl:

3 cups gluten free flour*

3 tablespoons sugar

3½ teaspoons baking powder

1½ teaspoons xanthan gum

1 teaspoon salt

Add to large bowl and stir well:

2 eggs, lightly beaten

1 gluten free beer (12 oz.)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour batter into a greased or parchment lined loaf pan. Bake for 50-55 minutes. Yield: one robust loaf

*A combination of gluten-free flours usually gives the best result. Pick up a ready to use flour blend like Bob’s Red Mill or use your favorite all-purpose mix. Keep it basic with a rice flour blend (2 cups brown rice flour, 3/4 cup potato starch, 1/4 cup tapioca starch) or spice it up with some mesquite meal. Great with gluten free oat flour, too.

Beer Batter Bread Gluten-Free

Recipe

1 cup oat flour
1 cup millet flour
1 cup sorgham flour
1 Tb granulated sugar
1 tsp salt
1 Tb baking powder
14 ounces GF beer or 12 oz beer & 2 oz water
1 1/4 kuzu powder dissolved in the 2 oz of water
Optional Egg Glaze: 1 beaten egg & 2 tsp water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 4 x 8 loaf pan with parchment paper. Combine all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add the dissolved kuzu and water to the beer. Then pour both liquids into the dry ingredients. Stir only enough to blend and lumps are okay. The batter will be thick. Pour into parchment lined pan and bake for approximately 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This bread is better to eat within the first couple of days. After the third day the after taste becomes stronger until it is almost as strong as the aged Emmenthaler cheese.

Here’s the recipe:

3 cups flour (I used 2 cups of Bob’s Red Mill Homemade Wonderful gluten-free Bread Mix and 1 cup of white rice flour)
3 teas. baking powder (omit if using self rising flour)
1 teas. salt (omit if using self rising flour)
1/4 cup sugar
1 12 oz can beer (I used lemon lime soda instead)
1/2 cup melted butter (I used clarified butter)

1. Preheat oven to 375
2. Mix dry ingredients and soda
3. Pour into greased loaf pan.
4. Pour melted butter over top.
5. Bake about 55 minutes, remove from pan and let cool at least 15 minutes.

Do not add yeast to this. No kneading required.

If anyone has a better substitiute for the rice flour let me know. I think maybe 3 cups of the Homemade Wonderful bread mix might make a better loaf. I bought it because it already has the Xanthan Gum in it (didn’t want to pay $11. for a bag of that! )

If you want to make this with regular flour and beer, there’s a recipe on allrecipes.com that is really good (look for the recipe with 5 stars).
