Gluten Free Cinnamon Bread Revisited...

I was blown away by all the love I got yesterday! Thank you all for your kind words and thoughts. We are good. Thank you all for your concern. The housing market is just bad and well, we had to make a tough choice, but we are determined to make things better! Onward and upward!

Even though I'm not completely unpacked, you all know I had to bake!


I decided our family favorite of Gluten Free Cinnamon Bread was in order. I changed it up a little bit and well, they were improvements. A little xanthan gum and a little extra milk, along with baking it in my new Better Homes and Gardens cake pans made our family favorite even better! I love these pans!


Here's what I did this time...


Gluten Free Cinnamon Bread

1/4 cup oil
1 1/3 cup sugar (white or turbinado)
1 flax egg (1 TBSP flax meal + 3 TBSP hot water allowed to sit while you mix everything else)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 /2 cup buckwheat flour
1 cup white rice flour
1/2 cup brown rice flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp xanthan gum
1 1/4 cup dairy free milk alternative (soy, almond or hemp - soy nog is great too)
additional cinnamon and demerara sugar for sprinkling on top

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 inch cake pan with cooking spray or coat with oil.

Combine oil, sugar, flax egg, vanilla and dairy free milk in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine baking powder, baking soda, flour, salt, cinnamon and xanthan gum. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet. Mix just until combined. Pour into prepared cake pan. Sprinkle with a little extra cinnamon and sugar. Swirl the top with a knife. Cook for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a little bit of gooeyness on it. You can remove it from the pan after it has cooled for about 10 minutes.

This bread is soft, chewy, sweet and has the perfect amount of spice! Perfect with a cup of coffee or a spiced tea. Anyone else ready for fall? I know I am!

I'm sharing this at Slightly Indulgent Tuesday.

    Just caught up from your last post- I'm glad things are starting to settle down a little for ya. Even if it's not the exact way you had originally planned. I hate the "everything happens for a reason" phrase, but sometimes it's just easier to go with the flow and ride the wave out so you can catch the next one... :)

    On another note, I've started to really hit up the cinnamon. Not ready to admit summer is leaving us, but it's a nice change to my normal flavors...

    I'm just getting caught up - I'm so glad things are starting to get better. Sometimes things take more time when than we want them to, huh?
    This bread looks delicious! I'm a huge fan of cinnamon. In fact, I just had a cinnamon bagel for breakfast. :)
    Hugs!!

    Look on the bright side, at least you haven't already bought a new house and it's all gonna go bad if no one buys the old one.

    Something about baking or being in the kitchen that just feels like "home." Have you added raisins to this recipe? I love cinnamon raisin bread.

    Your recipe says "1 cup white rice", then the next item is brown rice FLOUR - is the white rice supposed to be flour also? Thanks ...

    And well remember we adapt to everything, that is whats amazing about us. Its a matter of being open and creative, which you definetly are, so give it time!!!!
