Gluten Free Sourdough Bread

Gluten Free Sourdough Bread

Every time I think about gluten-free sourdough bread, I’m reminded of the first time I attempted to make it—a disaster that turned into a delicious discovery. Now, it’s a staple in my kitchen, perfect for those mornings when I crave something hearty yet gentle on my stomach.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free sourdough starter, active and bubbly
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
  • 1 tbsp psyllium husk powder
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tbsp raw honey
  • 1 cup lukewarm filtered water (about 90°F)
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free sourdough starter, gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, psyllium husk powder, and fine sea salt. Whisk until evenly distributed.
  2. Add the raw honey and lukewarm filtered water to the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms. Tip: The dough should be tacky but not overly wet. Adjust with a tablespoon of water or flour if necessary.
  3. Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel and let it rest in a warm spot (about 75°F) for 6 hours, or until the dough has doubled in size. Tip: A slightly longer fermentation can enhance the sourdough flavor.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a loaf pan with extra-virgin olive oil.
  5. Transfer the dough to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with wet fingers to prevent sticking. Tip: Wetting your hands makes handling the sticky dough easier.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Crumbly yet moist, this gluten-free sourdough bread has a subtle tang that pairs wonderfully with avocado or a smear of almond butter. Try toasting slices for an extra crunch that brings out its complex flavors.

Gluten Free Sourdough Pancakes

Gluten Free Sourdough Pancakes

Over the years, I’ve experimented with countless gluten-free recipes, but these sourdough pancakes hold a special place in my heart. There’s something about the tangy depth of sourdough that transforms a simple breakfast into a memorable meal, and I’m thrilled to share my perfected version with you.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free sourdough starter, active and bubbly
  • 2 pasture-raised eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup almond milk, unsweetened
  • 2 tbsp clarified butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt, finely ground
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free sourdough starter, lightly beaten pasture-raised eggs, and unsweetened almond milk. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.
  2. Gently fold in the melted clarified butter and pure maple syrup, ensuring the ingredients are well incorporated without overmixing.
  3. Sprinkle the finely ground sea salt and baking soda over the batter. Stir lightly to distribute evenly; the batter will begin to bubble slightly.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat (300°F) for 2 minutes. Test the pan’s readiness by sprinkling a few drops of water; they should dance and evaporate quickly.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Flip the pancakes carefully with a spatula. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Transfer the pancakes to a warm plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.

The result is a stack of pancakes with a delightfully crisp exterior and a soft, airy interior, carrying the distinct, tangy flavor of sourdough. Serve them with a drizzle of maple syrup and a dollop of coconut yogurt for a decadent, gluten-free breakfast that feels anything but restrictive.

Gluten Free Sourdough Waffles

There’s something magical about waking up to the aroma of freshly made waffles, especially when they’re gluten-free and sourdough.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free sourdough starter, active and bubbly

  • 1/4 cup clarified butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup almond milk, room temperature

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free sourdough starter, lightly beaten pasture-raised eggs, and melted clarified butter. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Add the pure maple syrup and sea salt to the mixture, stirring to incorporate fully.
  3. Sprinkle the baking soda over the mixture, then pour in the almond milk. Stir gently until just combined; overmixing can lead to dense waffles.
  4. Preheat your waffle iron to 375°F. Lightly grease with clarified butter if necessary.
  5. Pour 1/2 cup of batter onto the center of the iron. Close and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and releases easily.
  6. Repeat with remaining batter, keeping cooked waffles warm in a 200°F oven if serving immediately isn’t possible.

Zesty and tangy with a crisp exterior and fluffy interior, these waffles are a game-changer. Serve them with a dollop of coconut yogurt and a drizzle of maple syrup for a decadent twist.

Gluten Free Sourdough Pizza Crust

Gluten Free Sourdough Pizza Crust

Finally, a gluten-free sourdough pizza crust that doesn’t compromise on texture or taste! After countless experiments in my kitchen, I’ve perfected a recipe that brings the chewy, tangy essence of traditional sourdough to those of us avoiding gluten. Let me walk you through creating this game-changer at home.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free sourdough starter, active and bubbly
  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
  • 1/2 cup tapioca flour
  • 1 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup lukewarm water (110°F)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, and fine sea salt. Whisk thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
  2. Add the active gluten-free sourdough starter, extra-virgin olive oil, and lukewarm water to the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
  3. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface (use gluten-free flour) and knead for 5 minutes until smooth. Tip: The dough should be tacky but not overly sticky; adjust with a teaspoon of water or flour as needed.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm spot (75°F) for 6 hours, or until doubled in size.
  5. Preheat your oven to 450°F with a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up. This ensures a crispy crust.
  6. Shape the dough on parchment paper to your desired thickness. Tip: For a thinner crust, stretch the dough gently; for a thicker crust, leave it more substantial.
  7. Bake the crust alone for 10 minutes before adding toppings. This prevents a soggy middle.
  8. Add your favorite toppings and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy.

So, what’s the verdict? This crust boasts a delightful chew with a slight tang, mirroring traditional sourdough’s complexity. Try serving it with a drizzle of garlic-infused olive oil and fresh basil for an extra flavor punch.

  9. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Gluten Free Sourdough Chocolate Cake

Gluten Free Sourdough Chocolate Cake

After countless experiments in my tiny kitchen, I’ve finally perfected a gluten-free sourdough chocolate cake that’s as rich in flavor as it is in texture. It’s a testament to the magic of sourdough, transforming simple ingredients into something extraordinary.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free sourdough starter, active and bubbly
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour, finely ground
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder, Dutch-processed
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar

  • 1/2 tsp sea salt, finely ground
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, 70% cacao

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with clarified butter, then dust with almond flour.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, sea salt, and baking soda until no lumps remain.
  3. Add the active gluten-free sourdough starter, melted clarified butter, lightly beaten eggs, and pure vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined to avoid overworking the batter.
  4. Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even bake.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Tip: Avoid opening the oven door too early to prevent the cake from sinking.
  7. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Tip: This patience ensures the cake sets properly and enhances the flavors.
  8. For an extra touch, serve slices with a dollop of coconut whipped cream and a sprinkle of cocoa powder. Tip: The slight tang from the sourdough pairs beautifully with the sweetness of the cream.

So moist and rich, this cake surprises with its depth of flavor, thanks to the sourdough starter. The chocolate chips add little pockets of molten chocolate, making each bite a delight. Try it warmed with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat.

Gluten Free Sourdough Apple Pie

Gluten Free Sourdough Apple Pie

Yesterday, as the crisp autumn air began to whisper through the kitchen window, I found myself craving the comforting embrace of a homemade pie. But not just any pie—this time, I wanted to challenge myself with a gluten-free sourdough apple pie, a twist on the classic that’s been dancing in my mind since I first mastered sourdough baking.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/4 cup active gluten-free sourdough starter
  • 1/4 cup ice water
  • 4 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tbsp clarified butter, melted
  • 1 pasture-raised egg, lightly beaten for egg wash

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour and fine sea salt. Add the cold cubed butter, using your fingers to work it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Stir in the active gluten-free sourdough starter and ice water, mixing just until the dough comes together. Tip: Overworking the dough can make it tough, so handle it as little as possible.
  3. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the gluten-free flour to hydrate and the dough to firm up.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and position a rack in the center.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out two-thirds of the dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Carefully transfer the dough to the dish, trimming any excess.
  6. In a separate bowl, toss the sliced Granny Smith apples with granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until evenly coated. Tip: Letting the apple mixture sit for 10 minutes before baking can enhance the flavors.
  7. Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust, then drizzle with melted clarified butter.
  8. Roll out the remaining dough to create a lattice or full top crust. Seal the edges, then brush the top with the lightly beaten egg wash for a golden finish.
  9. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Tip: Placing a baking sheet underneath the pie dish can catch any drips and prevent oven messes.

Crunchy on the outside with a tender, tangy sourdough crust, this pie is a delightful contrast to the sweet, spiced apple filling. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an unforgettable dessert that celebrates the best of both worlds.
