You will need:

¼cupPotato Starch
¼cupTapioca Starch
Substitution ratio: 1 cup Gluten-Free Bread Flour = ½ cup Oat Flour + ¼ cup Potato Starch + 2 tsp Psyllium Husk + ¼ cup Tapioca Starch

Effects on Your Baking

Noticeably milder and slightly sweet compared with a rice-based blend, with the soft cereal note oats always bring. Pairs well with enriched or lightly sweetened breads and is the friendlier option for anyone who finds rice-flour loaves bland or chalky.

Pro Tips

  • ·Certified gluten-free oats are essential; ordinary oats are not safe for celiac disease
  • ·Oat flour absorbs water more slowly than rice flour, so give the dough a longer rest before shaping
  • ·Best in soft sandwich-style loaves rather than high-hydration artisan boules
  • ·Grind your own oat flour in a blender to save money, then sift out the coarse bits
