Gluten Free Irish Soda Bread

We are getting close to St.Patrick's Day, so I thought it might be time to share my Gluten Free Irish Soda Bread recipe. I've been working on this for a while now, and here's what I have finally come up with.

My quest for gluten free bread has been a long one. Some gluten free breads are just not good, others you can buy in the store taste good, but they have many ingredients, including eggs and usually canola oil and corn products, things I am avoiding. Also, the more processed the food, the less good for you it usually is. This is a pretty simple recipe. Feel free to play with it as you like.

Gluten Free Irish Soda Bread:

Ingredients:

1 Cup rice flour

1/2 cup tapioca starch

1/2 cup coconut flour

1 tsp salt

3/4 tsp baking soda

1 TBSP baking powder

3 TBSP coconut oil (melted)

1 1/2 cups water

2 tsp apple cider vinegar

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Combine the dry ingredients in one bowl, the wet ingredients in another. Once they are mixed separately, add the wet to the dry and stir. The dough should be wet feeling, but you should be able to shape it. I usually put it on a greased round pan and shape into a circle, about and inch or so thick. Bake for 5 minutes at 450, then reduce heat to 350 and cook for another 25 minutes. Let cook for 10 minutes, cut, enjoy. I usually cut it with a pizza cutter into 8 triangular pieces. So far this is our favorite bread. I hope you enjoy it too.
