- 2 cups sorghum flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 1/2 cup brown rice flour
- 1/4 cup flaxseed meal
- 2 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 2 cups warm water

Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, combine sorghum flour, tapioca flour, brown rice flour, flaxseed meal, psyllium husk powder, salt, and baking powder. Mix well.

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Add the yeast mixture, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until you get a smooth, thick batter. The batter should be slightly sticky and thicker than regular bread dough. Let the Dough Rise: Cover the mixing bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Place it in a warm, draft-free area and let it rise for about 1-1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a loaf pan with oil or line it with parchment paper. Bake the Bread: Once the dough has risen, transfer it to the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Enjoy your homemade sorghum flour bread! It’s perfect for sandwiches, toast, or as a side with your favorite soups and salads.
