There are two keys to a good sourdough – the starter and the carbonation. My GF Sourdough Ginger Ale Bread used ginger ale for the carbonated water – OBVI.
Jump to RecipeNow that I have made gluten free sourdough starter, I have made bread using the sourdough starter and the sourdough discard including:
These sourdough breads can be made as artisan loaves or in a loaf pan. I just like the look that an artisan loaf provides. You can get creative with the way in which you score the bread – the slices on top. You need to use a serrated knife. I am not sure I love the look of the serrating on this bread after baking but the flavor is not affected.
My favorite part to see when I cut the bread is the crumb. The crumb is the aerated holes in the bread. It is easy to get a good crumb in gluten breads but hard in a gluten free bread. So I get excited when I see a decent crumb as this bread has. It means the bread will have a lighter interior.

Amazing GF Sourdough Honey Bread
My Amazing GF Sourdough Honey Bread gets its structure by adding psyllium husk, honey and apple cider vinegar for a very satisfying bread
Ingredients
- 3 Cups Bob's One to One GF flour
- 1/2 Cup Cassava
- 2 Tsp Psyllium Husk
- 2 Tsp Baking powder
- 1 Tsp Baking Soda
- 3 Tbsp Nonfat Dry Milk Powder
- 2 Tsp Sugar
- 1/4 Cup Olive oil
- 2 Tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 2 Tsp Active yeast
- 1 Tsp Salt
- 1 Tbsp Honey
- 1 Cup Club Soda beaten
- 1/2 Cup Gluten Free Sourdough Starter heated
- 2 Whole Eggs beaten
Instructions
-
Begin by blooming the yeast with the sourdough starter and the honey. This will take 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine all the dry ingredients in a big bowl.
Next, place the remaining wet ingredients in a stand mixer and mix for 2 minutes until well combined.
Slowly, alternate adding in the dry ingredients and ginger ale into the wet ingredients in 3 steps. Mix after each addition. The dough should be more dough like than batter like. Once formed, cover and put in a warm place covered with oiled plastic wrap to proof for 2 hours. Pour the dough on the counter and knead for 1 – 2 minutes with dough scraper. Put on an oiled and lightly floured piece of parchment paper, and place in a bowl for the final proofing. This step will take 30 – 60 minutes.
Before placing in a 350 degree oven, dust the top with flour and a little oil. Take the dough out with the parchment paper and place on a cooking stone. Cook for 60 minutes. Using a thermometer, test to see that your bread has an internal temperature of 205 – 210 degrees. Let completely cool before slicing.
Serve and enjoy!
