Rye-Style Bread [0001158]

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
1/2 cup almond flour
1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups warm water (110°F or 43°C)
2 tablespoons dark molasses
1 teaspoon caraway seeds (optional, for rye flavor)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions:

In a small bowl, combine the warm water and dark molasses. Sprinkle the yeast over the water-molasses mixture and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, caraway seeds (if using), and salt.

Add the yeast mixture, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined, and the dough is smooth. The dough will be more like a batter than traditional rye dough.

Grease a 9x5-inch (23x13 cm) loaf pan and transfer the dough into it.

Use a wet spatula to smooth the top of the dough.

Cover the pan with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 30-45 minutes, or until the dough has doubled in size.

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while the dough is rising.

Once the dough has risen, place it in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, slice and enjoy your homemade gluten-free rye-style bread!

This gluten-free bread captures some of the essence of rye bread with the dark molasses and optional caraway seeds. It's a delightful alternative for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. Always double-check the labels of your ingredients to ensure they are truly gluten-free. Enjoy!
