Dan's Gluten Free Loaf

[achookwoman]

Until now , I haven't had much luck making Gluten Free bread. i have made this for a friend and it looks good. I might have known and should have gone straight to Dan Lepard. He really is a wonderful reliable baker. This recipe has been adapted from his recipe in 'Short and Sweet' for the TMX.

20g Soya flour
50g potato flour
300g corn flour ( I used white Wings)
25g Psylliam husk powder
2 generous teaspoons of dried yeast
1 teaspoon of salt
2 teaspoons of vinegar
15 mls of EVOO, plus extra for handling the dough
2 Tablespoons of plain Yoghurt
325 mls of warm water
30 mls of milk

DO
Put everything in TMX bowl , keeping yeast away from salt
Knead for 1 min.(It will look very sloppy)
Leave in Bowl of TMX until double. (about 1 hour)
Line 19cm tin with baking paper.
Roll dough and place seam side down in tin.
Place in a warm spot and leave for 90 mins.
DURING LAST 20 mins SET OVEN TO 240 C , OR 220 FF.
As the loaf will not rise in the oven, it is important to have a hot oven.
Bake 50 mins for a large loaf , 35 mins for 2 small loaves.
Remove to wire rack and cover with a cloth to keep crust soft.

Will keep for 2/3 days and can be frozen.

I think it is important that the small amounts are weighed accurately. so use digital scales'

Chookie I think I love you. I have a friend coming over for lunch who needs gluten free and I didn't think of Dan L.

[achookwoman]

Cookie,  start early as the 2nd rise takes 90 mins. I made 2 small loaves and cooked to perfection in 35 mins.

They look super Chookie.  Are you going to post the recipe & conversion for those wanting GF bread?

[achookwoman]

Will do,  Judy.  Do you think people are interested?

[judydawn]

Of course they would be Chookie, there are lots of GF people on here.

Looks great Chookie! Well done! I'm sure all of us coeliacs are drooling at your bread. I don't have thisbcookbook and can we please beg you to post the recipe?  As you probably know, even  though a gluten free diet is lot more improved compared to a few years ago, we are all on the lookout for that elusive 'wonder bread' !

I have to own up, I ate it.   And it was very nice.  Not cakey like other GF bread I have tried. Frankly I am amazed at how good it is.  It takes a whole packet of Cornflour, (White Wings),  so is not cheap.  However for those who are lusting after wheat bread,  I think this might be the answer.  I have added the recipe to the original post. 
Think I might fiddle with the recipe and see if it will carry some seeds. 
Merlin,  have a go and ask for help if you have any problems.
