Gluten-Free Wonder Bread Recipe

Wonder Bread is soft, fluffy, and easy to make. This version of the popular bread is gluten free!  It toasts beautifully and is delicious on its own or with your favourite toppings. This recipe works just as well for both bread & pizza. 

Instructions

Quick gluten-free bread for lunch or dinner, just add water & olive oil, rest for 30 minutes then bake for 30 minutes until golden. 

What you will need:

Ingredients:

To Make a Small Tin

 

To Make a Large Tin

 

Instructions: 

Make sure to read through the instructions & watch the video at the end.

1. Combine all the wet & dry ingredients together & mix thoroughly for 5 minutes or until the dough comes together (as per the video below). Making sure everything is well incorporated. 

For the next step, please ensure you have the correct size bread tin for your One-Bag Wonder Mix:
Small bread tin (15cm x 9.5cm x 7cm) for the small 380g flour bag
Large bread tin (21.5cm x 11.5cm  x 7cm) for the large 590g flour bag. 



2. Your bread tin should be non-stick, otherwise please line with baking paper. Oil your hands & place dough into the tin. Then press down to shape the dough into the tin. This helps remove any air pockets which can cause big holes in your bread if left un-removed. 


3. Wet the top of the dough with some water & oil, do this using either a pastry brush or gently apply with your hands to keep the top moist. Cover to prevent draught which can dry out the top of your dough. If left uncovered, your bread will have a thick & un-desirable crust when baked so please cover it. 

4. Preheat your oven to 240 degrees Celsius set on fan-forced for 30 minutes. During this time, let your dough rest on the kitchen counter until it has grown by 50% in size, this should take about 30 minutes. Do not over-proof your dough, this can give you a heavy loaf when baked. 

Please note: below is a picture of our large tin, the small tin will have slightly higher doming. Aim for 50% growth before putting into the oven. If you are using a different size tin, the growth of your dough may vary.


 

5. When your dough is ready, take the cover off,  spray generously or brush the top of your dough with water again before loading into the oven. Place your tin on the middle or bottom rack inside the oven & place 2 or 3 ice-cubs in a baking dish and place it inside the ove. Then turn your oven down to 220-230 degrees (fan force) & bake for 30 minutes. Depending on your oven, you will have to adjust it up or down to obtain the desired colour. 

Please note that different ovens will have different results so you may need to adjust accordingly. The aim is to bake it hot, so ensure you preheat your oven! 
 

 6. Once your bread is baked, take it out of the tin & let it cool down on a cooling rack for about 10 minutes before cutting. 

Best eaten warm & on the same day of baking. Any leftovers should be sliced & frozen for toast.
