Brown Rice Flat Bread -Gluten & Dairy Free

I love bread, but I am gluten intolerant which means that decent bread is hard to find. While there are many gluten free breads available in the market, they are usually very heavy and dense. I  found a recipe online for a quinoa  bread that I  modified as a gluten free  rice flat bread. It is intentionally made plain, so I can enjoy it with nut butters or as a sandwich. It is simple to spice this up, by added your favorite herbs or spices.

 

Ingredients:

1-1/2 C. Organic sprouted brown rice flour

1/2 C. Organic millet flour

1/2 C. Organic tapioca starch

1/4 tsp. Xanthum gum

1 tsp. salt

1/2 C. Organic cooked brown rice

Liquid:

3/4 C. Warm water

2 tsp. Yeast

2 tsp. Honey

1 T. Organic extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)

 

Directions:

  1. Dissolve honey in warm water. Sprinkle yeast in  bowl and allow to bloom. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)
  2. While yeast blooms, place all dry ingredients in food processor and pulse till combined.
  3. When yeast has bloomed, add in EVOO. Pour into food processor.
  4. Process until mixture is combined and forms a ball. Scoop out dough a 1/4 C. at a time. Place into parchment paper and roll into rectangles about 1/4″ thick.
  5.  Place flat breads on parchment lined cookie sheet. Place in warm area and cover with a towel. Allow to rise for forty minutes.
  6. Heat large skillet on stovetop to medium heat. Place 2-3 flat breads in pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side.
  7. Allow to cool. Wrap and store in fridge or freezer.

 

Alternately you can roll out dough into a large rectangle, cut into squares . Place 2-3 flat breads in pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side. Allow to cool. Wrap and store in fridge or freezer.
