I’ve discovered an absolutely delicious sandwich bread recipe! It’s called “Sandwich Bread with Sourdough Starter.” I’m using it in the sandwich supper I’ve included in the Gluten-Free Diet Menu Plan this week. You can find the link in the menu plan.

Several weeks ago I started my own batch of sourdough starter by following Amy Green of Simply Sugar and Gluten Free’s directions (linked below) and I found it has worked just as her instructions say… It was so simple!

Even better, her Simply Sugar and Gluten-Free sandwich bread is flavorful with a soft, flexible texture. I’ve made it again and again, with consistent results, so I wanted to share it with you in case you’re looking for a great gluten-free bread recipe.

This gluten-free menu plan is designed for those with gluten intolerance, gluten sensitivity, or celiac (coeliac) disease, but I’ve found that people who have no food allergies like these gluten-free recipes, too. They are wheat-free, barley-free and rye-free. Many are also suitable for the paleo diet or may be casein-free, dairy-free, egg-free, lactose-free, nut-free or refined sugar-free.
