Ingredients:

  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and boiled
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup potato starch
  • 1/4 cup rice flour
  • 1/4 cup olive oil or melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (optional, for better texture)
  • 1 cup warm water (around 110°F/45°C)
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar (for added fluffiness)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Mash the boiled potatoes until smooth. Allow them to cool to room temperature.
  2. Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, mix the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir well and let sit for about 10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
  3. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, potato starch, rice flour, salt, and xanthan gum (if using).
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Add the mashed potatoes, olive oil or melted butter, and vinegar to the dry ingredients. Pour in the activated yeast mixture and mix until everything is fully combined. The dough should be slightly sticky but not wet.
  5. Knead the Dough: On a floured surface (use rice flour), knead the dough for about 5-8 minutes until it becomes smooth. If it’s too sticky, add a little more flour.
  6. Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
  7. Shape and Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Shape the dough into a loaf and place it into a greased loaf pan. Let it rise for another 30 minutes. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool: Let the bread cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
