GFCF bread machine recipe- and a great quote!

I've been playing around with recipes for GFCF bread for the bread machine and I came up with one that is a definite hit with the family! I'm still tweaking it because it tends to fall in the middle after rising all nice and pretty, but that problem lessened significantly when I decreased some of the liquid (I started out using 1.5 cups of coconut milk.) The following pictures are from the first loaf I made and the loaves I've made recently are not nearly as indented in the middle.

Liquid ingredients:

1 1/4 cup room temperature coconut milk (or other milk alternative) with 2 T apple cider vinegar added

3 eggs room temperature (I didn't leave the coconut milk or eggs out to warm up so I put them in some warm water as shown below)

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup honey
To the liquid ingredients add:

1 T. yeast

3 1/3 cup GF flour mix (I use Silvana's All Purpose Flour Blend - I use this for a lot of recipes and make up a batch at least once a week.)

2 tsp. xanthan gum (there is some in the flour blend but not enough for this recipe)

1 tsp. salt

Bake in a regular bread machine (you don't need the fancy one with a GF bread cycle) and about 3 hours later you have a delicious loaf of gluten / casein free bread! (*Always scrape the sides of the bread machine pan with a spatula a few minutes after starting the mix cycle. Gluten free bread doesn't pull itself together in a ball like regular bread dough so some of it tends to stick to the sides and it needs a little help to mix in.)

Now all you need is some PB & J. Mmmmm.
