Notes

My first gut feeling recipe! A nice taste and colour. I think I used a cake tin that was too small though because the mixture didn’t all fit in and then it grew so much it was falling over the sides! What is the measurement of your tin? Also what is the size of your cup? I would like to try this recipe again 🙂
Hi Julia, thank you for your comment 🙂 I use US cups, I suppose you use UK ones? For baking you may prefer to remove 2 teaspoons from each cup measure to get from UK to US measures. My tin measures are 25cm*11cm*7,5cm / 10inch*9inch*4,5inch
You have measurements but mentioned “weigh dry ingredients”, can I get the weight instead of measure recipe? I find that everybody has a different weight of a cup, I know my husband and I do. Thanks for sharing your recipes, just found I have celiac. Wow whole new way of cooking.
Hi! Thank you for your suggestion. I´ve added the weight in grams and ounces to the recipe. It is quite a challenge to relearn how to cook! It can also be a journey of discovery and I wish you a smooth and creative one 😉
When you say “tapioca,” do you mean tapioca flour/starch? or whole tapioca?
Hi Joyce. It’s tapioca starch.
Hi Joana,
a very big fan of you here, from Hungary! 🙂 Thank you for the great recipes! It’s such a luxury to know that all the dishes here are safe for me. Only one question to this recipe: isn’t the 1,5 cup water too much? (It was too much for me, I did’t get a dough, just a liquid (ca.it would have been a pancake)).

Hi Marcsi! Thank you for reaching out! So glad to hear you enjoy the recipes :). Normally 1,5 cups works but it depends on the cup and also on the kind of flour (GF flours tend to need more water than regular). Because making bread withouth wheat can be complicated, I suggest you warm the water and pour slowly until you get a sticky dough and can make a ball. You’ll be able to control the consistency and if you need less water, it’s ok. If you already have a liquid dough, just add more rice flour until you get that consistency. Let me know if it works!
Thanks Joana,
succsess this way! I was more careful with the water, and the bread is fantastic! 🙂
Thanks a lot!
Hey Marcsi! Thx for your feedback! So happy to hear 🙂
Can regular yeast be used instead of instant yeast? I’d really like to try this today but I only have regular yeast on hand.
Hi Trisha! Active dry yeast and instant yeast can generally be used interchangeably, one-for-one. Because active dry yeast may be slower to rise, add an extra 10 to 15 minutes for the rise time.
Thanks!
Made two loaves as I added 1 cup of water to the original dough and it was like pancake batter, so I doubled all the other ingredients and that seemed to make the consistency right.
Makes a very nice old fashioned, peasant style loaf. Will be great for open faced scandi style sandwiches.
Do you think it would freeze well? You know, because two loaves…….
Thx for your feedback! It freezes well, I would suggest sliced.
