Instructions

1. Activate Yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar (or honey), and yeast. Set it aside for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the non-wheat composite flour, potato starch, flaxseed meal, xanthan gum, and salt.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the olive oil (or melted coconut oil) and vinegar to the activated yeast mixture.
4. Mix and Knead: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Mix until it forms a dough. Then, knead the dough for about 5-8 minutes until it's smooth and elastic.
5. First Rise: Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
6. Shape and Second Rise: After the first rise, punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the shaped dough into a greased loaf pan. Cover it again and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes until it rises above the edges of the pan.
7. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while the dough is undergoing its second rise.
8. Bake: Once the dough has risen, place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom
9. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
