Make your own gluten-free bread at home with this sourdough starter. Keep this guy alive and never buy bread again!

Maintaining your Gluten-free Sourdough Starter is a breeze. Set aside just 1 tablespoon (20 grams), add 50 grams of water, and 60 grams of rice flour weekly. After 4 hours at room temperature, store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. Don't worry about the reduction in quantity; it's a sign of thriving bacteria.

Now, let's dive into the baking process. Follow these step-by-step instructions to create your own gluten-free sourdough bread:

  1. Preparation: First, add 350 grams or 1 and 1/2 cups of water to your starter. Unlike wheat dough, there's no need for vigorous mixing, thanks to the absence of gluten.
  2. Proofing: Next, grease your loaf pan and cover your dough. Proof for 4 hours in the oven with the light on, allowing it to rise to perfection.
  3. Baking: Preheat your oven to 525 degrees Fahrenheit. Begin by baking the dough covered for 25 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 15 minutes.

Finally, within 4-6 hours, you'll have a fresh, gluten-free bread using your choice of flour or our pre-made gluten-free baker's bread flour. Say goodbye to gluten and hello to a lifetime of delightful, homemade sourdough bread. Check out our baker's blog post by more info!

Certified Gluten-free

Our kitchen is fully gluten-free. If you’re Celiac, rest assured we’ve eliminated the risk of cross-contamination. Even without allergy symptoms, you might find that removing gluten creates space for healthier foods in your diet. Replacing traditional flours with almond, oat, tapioca, and coconut enhances flavor and nutritional value. It’s always best to speak with a professional before making major dietary changes. 

Sourdough Starter

The fermentation process breaks down gluten and phytic acid making it easier to digest, which is great for those who are sensitive to gluten! As it ferments slowly, sourdough can help maintain steady blood sugar levels and manage energy throughout the day. Plus, the probiotics produced during fermentation may contribute to a healthier gut microbiome.
