Can you use gluten free all purpose flour for making bread?

Gluten Free Bread Flour or All-Purpose Gluten Free Flour can both be used with minimal changes to the recipe. The exact amount of gluten free flour used will vary depending on different factors (altitude/humidity etc.).

What matters most is the texture of the gluten free dough. It should be smooth and pull away from the sides of the bowl. It’s important not to add too much gluten free flour or your gluten free loaf will be dense. The dough should be just slightly sticky when touched with a clean finger.

Do I need a gluten free bread maker or stand mixer?

You don’t need any special equipment for this gluten free recipe. If you have a stand mixer, it does make the process easier, but you can simply use a mixing bowl and a wooden spoon, and then knead the dough with your hands.

You can use a gluten free bread machine with this recipe if you have one, but you may need to adjust the recipe, depending on your machines capacity and settings.
