on Nov 06, 2022, Updated Oct 24, 2023 I highly suggest you try this bread because it’s actually softer in texture than my other no knead bread recipes. When I first made this recipe, I didn’t tell anyone that it was gluten-free, and my family couldn’t tell the difference. This is hands down the best gluten-free bread you will ever try.
Why You’ll Love No Knead Gluten Free Bread
Just because your diet may require you to make gluten-free bread (for yourself or your guests) doesn’t mean you should have to suffer! This gluten-free bread is not only easy to make because of simple ingredients and steps, but also incredibly tasty. If you need another reason to love this 🍞 bread, look no further than its flaky and crispy crust with its soft inside. Even more, you don’t have to be worried about a ⏲️ long rise time with this bread, because it only requires 5 hours of resting, so the dough can be prepared in the morning and then baked and ready before dinner in the evening! So easy!
How To Prepare No Knead Gluten Free Bread
First, activate the yeast by combining the warm 💦 water, sugar, and active dry yeast in a bowl. Stir and wait for 5 minutes to ensure activation; make sure the water is lukewarm. In a separate large bowl, mix the gluten-free flour and 🧂 salt. Slowly incorporate the activated yeast mixture, stirring until you achieve a thick, sticky dough. Cover the dough and let it rest at room temperature for 5 hours. After the dough rises, transfer it to a floured surface, shape it into an oval, and place it in a baking dish lined with parchment paper. Cover the dish with a lid or doubled-up aluminum foil. Put the dish in a 🧊 cold oven, set the temperature to 450F, and bake for 40 minutes (do not preheat your oven). After the loaf has cooked for 40 minutes, uncover the bread and bake for an additional 30 minutes or less, depending on your oven, until it’s light and golden. Let the bread ❄️ cool for 5 to 10 minutes, and then enjoy your homemade gluten-free bread.
Substitutions and Variations
This No Knead Gluten-Free Bread has lots of options for add-ins.
You can add herbs 🌿 like rosemary, thyme, or spices such as garlic powder or onion powder to the dough. Sprinkle sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or chopped nuts (like walnuts or sunflower seeds) on top of the bread before baking for added texture and flavor. Experiment with different shapes – you could make rolls, 🥖 baguettes, or even stuffed bread with your favorite fillings.
