Grain Free Bread Recipe
Description
The Grain Free Bread Recipe creates a loaf using a blend of almond, arrowroot, and coconut flours, mixing with sea salt, fiber boosters like ground chia seeds and psyllium husk powder, and yeast activated in warm water with real maple syrup. The maple syrup feeds the yeast, improving rise and lowering glycemic impact. The dough thickens and is kneaded briefly before resting and rising for about an hour in a draft-free spot.
Baking at 425°F with the dough brushed in egg wash develops a brown crust while the interior bakes thoroughly until the internal temperature reaches 205-210°F. Cooling fully before slicing helps develop structure and tenderness. This bread provides a grain-free option with modest rise and a neutral flavor suited to various uses.
Using real maple syrup is emphasized to support yeast activity and reduce glycemic response compared to refined sugars. The recipe’s structure relies on the combined flours and fiber powders to mimic bread texture without grains.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup arrowroot flour
- 1/3 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chia seeds finely ground
- 2 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
- 1 1/4 cup water
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup real
- 1 egg
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together almond, arrowroot and coconut flours with the sea salt.
- In a small bowl heat 1 1/4 cups of water to 105-110 F degrees. Add maple syrup and rapid rise yeast. Let sit for about 10 minutes. The yeast should start to bubble.
- Stir in the chia and psyllium into the prepared yeast mixture. Let sit for about 10 minutes while the ingredients thicken. Whisk together, then add to the flour mixture and stir with a spoon until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Knead dough for about 1 minute, then place back in the large bowl and cover with a damp towel. Place in a draft-free area and let rise for about one hour.
- Pre-heat oven to 425 F degrees with baking sheet or stone.
- In a small bowl whisk egg. Form dough into desired shape and brush egg over the loaf. Place on heated baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 205 -210 F degrees.
- Let cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Use real maple syrup to feed the yeast and lower the bread’s glycemic index.
