Tips for perfect Gluten Free Bread
It is advisable to use electronic digital scales when measuring ingredients to help prevent inaccurate measuring as this can greatly affect your final results.
In order to achieve the best possible rise your bread mix should resembles a medium consistency pancake batter during the final parts of the dough mixing cycle.
If the bread batter is too firm, the texture upon completing baking will likely be crumpet-like (not desirable).
Generally, the longer the tin you plan to bake in, the more water is required to achieve the perfect gluten free bread consistency.
Upon the loaf finishing baking you should allow the bread to cool for half an hour (minimum) before slicing.
The tops of your gluten free bread loaves generally appear white across the top surface. This is quite normal and the top is very much an edible part of the loaf.
Electric knives make slicing gluten free bread much easier.
A successful gluten free bread should rise well above tin height and be soft and light.
