Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups Schär All-Purpose Flour Mix
- 2 tsp instant yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional, but helps with yeast activation and flavor)
- 1 1/4 cups warm water (around 110°F or 43°C)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Schär flour blend, instant yeast, salt, and sugar.
- Add the warm water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients.
- Mix until all the ingredients are well combined. The batter will be sticky; this is normal for gluten-free bread doughs.
- Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 1 hour, or until the dough has approximately doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Transfer the dough to a greased loaf pan or mold into a shape on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet if you desire a rustic loaf.
- If you like, you can make slits on the top of the loaf with a sharp knife for a traditional bread appearance.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
- Allow the bread to cool before slicing.

Remember that baking gluten-free bread can sometimes be a trial-and-error process, as gluten-free flours respond differently than wheat flour. Don’t be discouraged if your first attempt isn’t perfect, and feel free to tweak the recipes to your liking.
