Favorite Bread For Toasting?

[Glutenfreefamily]

I want to make hawaiian toast and I need something that will hold together well.

What are your favorite bought breads or recipes for this?

Thanks

I like lorka150's bread. The recipe is around the board somewhere....I forget the exact title.

I make three loaves at a time and the last time used a total of 2 3/4 cup rice flour, 1 cup sorghum and 3/4 cup coconut flour (this is for the gluten-free flour and garfava flour. Add to that 1 1/2 cups potato or tapioca starch and 3/4 cup cornstarch or arrowroot. Add 2 1/2 T xanthum gum, 2 tsp salt and 2 TB yeast.

In the mixing bowl for your mixer put in 5 TB sugar/honey add six eggs (beaten) and 6 TB oil. Then add 3 cups milk or water (warmed). Mix this and add the flour mixture above.

Grease and flour 3 bread pans 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 or 9 x 5. Scoop evenly into the three pans (or as evenly as possible ), smooth the batter out. I let rise on top of the oven with the range lite on and the oven warming at 250 (if needed, ie: house is cool). Rise for 80 minutes (it's usually ready sooner but I've always let it rise that long.

Bake for 40-46 minutes at 350. Make sure you remember to turn on or up your oven before the rising time is done.

When baked turn out of pans to cool.

That's pretty much it, in a nutshell. The above quantities are for 3 loaves and has been slightly modified from the original.

The coconut flour makes for a denser bread that would hold up very well.

Lorka150 bread is my favorite gluten free bread, hands down. I like it fresh out of the oven, toasted, french toasted, grilled cheesed.....diced and cubed for croutons and as bread crumbs.

Can you tell I like it? LOL

I forgot to add that lorka's original recipe called for vinegar. For three loaves that would be 2 TB. I've omitted that.

kbabe- Im excited to try it. All the recipes I have made so far have crumbled easily.

AndreaB- Thanks Does the vinegar change the taste?

I don't think so but I don't remember.

I don't like using vinegar if I don't have too. I was told it acts as a preservative.

Thanks

I try and limit yeast so I think I will skip the vinegar and see how it does without it.
