It tastes just like gluten white bread fresh out of the bread machine!

Its soy/egg/dairy/rice/glutenfree

Low in fat/sugar!

EASY TOO! I used xanthan gum, didn't use the parchment paper. I let it rise about 60-70 minutes. Prepare the yeast in step 3, first.

Cut it into 4 pieces, then slice each one to have 8 slices or make it like bread sticks (put some cheese on it the last few minutes to melt)ooo... and some garlic butter next time...yes! Oh gee...2 pans ...mmm

Call me slow but what kind of pan do you use. My son has been asking for Focacia bread.

An 8"x8" metal pan, greased with shortening and floured. He will love it. Just plain without seasoning and oil is great too!

It is...I am making more tomorrow!! You could prebag up the dry ingredients ahead of time.

FYI:

1) The bread still tastes great today.

2) I used the 2/3 cup of water+2 T. I just made another batch.

3) There is a difference if you scoop up the flours with the measuring cup compared to spooning in the flour like you are supposed to do. If you scoop it up like I tend to do, you may need to add an extra 1 or 2 tablespoons of water + the 2/3 cups. I mixed it with a hand held mixer and it didn't climb the beaters.

4) The batter should look like thick white cake batter.

5) I sprinkled oil and Mrs. Dash on 1/2 and left 1/2 plain for a peanut butter sandwich. (It WAS good) If you use oil, sprinkle it on then very, very lightly spread it around, I used plastic wrap, its light weight. If you don't use oil, the top will look like chalk...experiment! Its ok anyway.

6) Its not crumbly and falling apart today.

7) Would be great for a grilled sandwich.

8) It looks like "normal" white bread but without the brown crust...kids don't usually like the crust Still crispy when it comes out of the oven.

9) I am impressed with it...I don't have a gluten-free bread machine so I can't compare it with those.

10) I used 1 packet of active dry yeast...not the rapid rise.

11) Todays bread rose high enough in 30 minutes but I am going to wait 40 minutes before baking it. Yesterdays bread was more than 60 minutes. I was nervous about it I think.

12) One batch today I added 1 tsp. of ground flax.

13) I forgot to flour one of the greased pans..no problem, it fell out.
