Ingredients for gluten-free bread
- 50-60 g fresh yeast (alternatively 2 P dry yeast)
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 cup (150-200 ml) non-fat milk (or whole milk if desired)
- 100 grams of butter
- 2 eggs
- 500g boiled, mashed potatoes
- salt (to taste)
- 650 g potato starch
- 2 loaf tins (about 25 cm x 10 cm x 8 cm)
- Some butter or fat for brushing the mold
Preparation of gluten-free bread (basic recipe)
In a large bowl, mix the yeast and sugar until liquified. Now add milk, butter, eggs, mashed potatoes, and salt and mix well. Then gradually add the potato starch and mix well until the mixture is smooth and sticks to your hands. Now cover the bowl with plastic wrap (or plastic film) and let the dough rest for about 30 minutes.
The mass is then divided into two equal parts and each is placed in a buttered (or fat) loaf tin and smoothed out with a wet spatula. Let the dough rise in the mold for another 30 minutes. The slices of bread are baked in a preheated oven at about 200° C for about 30 minutes until golden brown. Leave to cool on a wire rack so the bread stays crispy.
