Rice Bread Recipes

WILD RICE BREAD

Steps:

• In bread machine pan, place all ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select basic bread setting. Choose crust color and loaf size if available. Bake according to bread machine directions (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed).

EASY GLUTEN-FREE RICE BREAD (NO POTATO, GUMS OR YEAST)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease loaf pan and line with one strip of parchment paper, to make it easy to pull out/remove baked loaf.
• In large mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients: rice flour, psyllium husk powder, sweetener, gelatin, baking soda and sea salt.
• In medium bowl, combine liquid ingredients: warm water, fat of choice and egg whites. (If making sourdough version, use only 1-1/4 cups water, and sub in the remaining liquid [1/4 cup] with sauerkraut juice or whey.)
• Add liquid ingredients to dry ingredients and mix well. Electric beaters may be used. (Do not over-mix.) Roll dough into a giant jelly roll shape in bowl. Roll batter into prepared loaf pan, and shape the top with spatula or wetted fingers, so it's slightly mounded in the middle.
• Bake approximately 1 hour, until loaf is well risen, very golden brown and sounds a bit hollow when tapped on the bottom side.
• Allow to cool briefly in pan. Then slide knife along each end to free from pan, and lift up on parchment ends to pull loaf out. Allow to cool on wire rack before slicing.

WHITE RICE BREAD

Steps:

• In bread machine pan, place the first six ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select basic bread setting. Choose crust color and loaf size if available. Bake according to bread machine directions (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed)., Pat rice with paper towels until dry. Just before the final kneading (your machine may audibly signal this), add rice.

CAULIFLOWER BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450º F.
• Line large baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly coat with spray. Set aside.
• Place half of cauliflower in food processor; pulse until cauliflower is chopped into pieces about the size of rice. Repeat with the other half. Place in microwave-safe bowl.
• Microwave cauliflower on high for 6 to 8 minutes, or until cooked.
• Place cauliflower on cheesecloth, in small batches; squeeze dry. (No cheesecloth? Use a heavy-duty paper towel.) Don't skip this step -cauliflower needs to be dry.
• Combine cauliflower, egg, cheese, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; mix well.
• Place cauliflower mixture onto baking sheet in four even portions. Form into squares.
• Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until golden. Cool for 10 minutes before carefully removing from baking sheet.

MINNESOTA WILD RICE BREAD

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add rice to boiling water and cover. Cook over very low heat until water is absorbed and rice is tender. Cool.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Stir yeast into 1/3 cup warm water and let stand 5 minutes. Stir together milk, butter, honey, salt and oats. Add cooled wild rice to milk mixture.
• Stir together rye flour, whole-wheat flour, bran and 3 1/2 cups of the unbleached flour, using a wooden spoon. Stir in milk and yeast mixture until soft dough forms. Add more of the unbleached flour as needed.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured board and knead until soft and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place dough in greased bowl and turn so that the top is greased. Let rise 2 hours. Punch dough and shape into two loaves. Place in 2 greased 9 1/2 by 5 1/2-inch pans. Let rise again, about 1 hour. Bake for 45 minutes. During last 15 minutes of baking, brush loaves with 1 beaten egg mixed with 1 tablespoon of water and sprinkle with sunflower seeds.

RICE BREAD

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 cups water and rice in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil.
• Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
• Spoon rice into a large bowl; cool to room temperature.
• Stir in 1 1/4 cups warm water.
• Add 2 cups flour and yeast to rice mixture; stir well to combine.
• Cover with plastic wrap; let stand 1 hour (batter should become very bubbly and almost double in size).
• Add 2 cups flour and salt to batter; stir 1 minute with a wooden spoon or until well combined.
• Scrape dough onto a heavily floured surface; sprinkle dough with 1 cup flour.
• Knead until smooth and elastic (about 8 minutes); add enough of remaining flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent dough from sticking to hands (dough will feel tacky).
• Divide dough in half.
• Working with 1 portion at a time (cover the remaining dough to keep from drying), roll each portion into a 14 x 7-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface.
• Roll up each rectangle tightly, starting with a short edge, pressing firmly to eliminate air pockets; pinch seam and ends to seal.
• Place each roll, seam side down, in an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray.
• Lightly coat the loaves with cooking spray; cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 375°.
• Bake for 45 minutes or until loaves are lightly browned and sound hollow when tapped.
• Cool in pans on wire racks.

SOFT, FLUFFY BROWN RICE BREAD (GLUTEN-FREE, DAIRY-FREE)

Steps:

• Grease an 8″x4″ metal loaf pan.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk the brown rice flour, psyllium husk powder, instant yeast, sugar, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt together.
• Add the warm water, sunflower oil, and eggs to the dry ingredients and mix well to get a wet and shaggy dough (the dough is supposed to be shaggy, so don't worry).
• Transfer the dough to the greased loaf pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
• Cover the dough pan with a kitchen towel and let the dough rise approximately 30 to 40 minutes in a warm, draft-free place until it has almost doubled in size. (Tip: I like to place the loaf pan in my microwave with the power off - it creates the perfect draft-free and warm environment for rising dough).
• During the last 10 minutes of the dough rising, preheat oven to 350F and adjust the oven rack to the middle position.
• Bake the dough for 40 to 50 minutes until bread has turned dark brown on top and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Remove loaf from the oven.
• Let the loaf cool for 10 minutes in the loaf pan, before removing and letting it cool completely on the wire rack. Use a serrated bread knife to slice once the loaf has completely cooled.

RICE FLOUR BREAD

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
• Fold in the eggs and melted butter. Stir until everything is incorporated.
• Transfer the batter to your loaf pan and preheat the oven to 375° Fahrenheit (190° Celsius).
• Bake for 45 minutes and allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
• Use a knife to loosen the bread from the pan and transfer to a wire rack. Allow it to finish cooling before slicing and serving.

EASY RICE BREAD

Steps:

• To help insure success have all ingredients at room temperature before proceeding. Combine the white rice flour, brown rice flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix very well. The flours need to be completely combined.
• Combine the gelatin, sugar, egg replacer, milk powder, beaten eggs, vinegar and oil. Beat until well combined.
• Combine the flour mixture, egg mixture and yeast together and beat well. A standup mixture works best for this. Add tepid water to dough if mixture is to dry. The dough should be somewhere between a normal bread dough consistency and a batter.
• Pour into greased 9x5 inch bread pan and allow to rise in a warm, still place until doubled in bulk. Bake in a preheated oven at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) until crust is a light to medium brown. Cool ten minutes in the pan, then to room temperature outside the pan before slicing.
