Notes
What is the secret to good gluten-free bread?
Making gluten-free bread seems to be a really complicated process, but it is really simple if you know the trick. The trick is getting the right mix of gluten-free flour and adding xanthan gum or psyllium husk. It gives it elasticity like gluten provides in regular bread; otherwise, it can become too crumbly. Another trick is to make sure that your wet-to-dry ingredient ratio is on point. Too dry, it’s going to be dense; too wet, it’s going to fall apart.
Usually, gluten-free bread likes a little extra moisture. Add a bit more oil, even applesauce for a little extra softness. Then, let the batter rest 10-15 minutes before baking so that ingredients get a good chance to blend up nice and smooth for a smoother texture.

How to remove gluten from flour?
You cannot take the gluten out of normal flour, but do not worry. There are thousands of gluten-free flour alternatives available that will work just as well. The best options are almond flour, coconut flour, rice flour, and oat flour. All of these are naturally gluten-free and can easily replace normal flour in most recipes.
When using gluten-free flour, a blend often helps achieve the right consistency and flavor. Most grocery stores sell pre-made gluten-free flour blends, but you can mix up your own using rice flour, almond flour, and starch such as tapioca or potato starch. The starch helps hold everything together, just as gluten would in regular flour.
You can do this very easily using gluten-free flour and bake as much as you want.. This is the perfect swap when you’re making a recipe like this Gluten Free Pumpkin Bread Recipe or even other seasonal favorites like this cozy Iced Cinnamon Dolce Latte!
Conclusion
With a little practice and the right ingredients, gluten-free pumpkin bread is rather easy and fun to make. Good for breakfast, dessert, or a sweet snack, and because this is gluten-free, everyone can enjoy it. Happy baking!
