Ingredients

Scale

1 5/8 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour
1 1/4 teaspoons xanthan gum
3/8 cup tapioca starch
2 teaspoons instant yeast
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup warm milk (95°F)
1/4 cup plain yogurt, room temperature
1 tablespoon honey, maple syrup, or molasses
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 egg, room temperature, beaten
4 ounces sharp yellow cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions

Whisk gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, tapioca starch, yeast, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, warm milk to 95°F. Add yogurt and honey/molasses, stir to combine.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon or stand mixer until shaggy dough forms. Add butter and egg; mix until smooth and elastic.
Pour dough into a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan. Let rise 15-20 minutes.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Ensure your flour blend contains xanthan gum before omitting added xanthan.
Substitute non-dairy yogurt and vegan cheese for a vegan option.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Reheat slices on a buttered griddle for a crispy texture.
