Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour blend
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (if your blend doesn’t include it)
  • 6 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
Wet Ingredients
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature)
  • 1 cup plain yogurt (at room temperature)
  • 2 large eggs (beaten, at room temperature)
Chocolate Chips
  • 3 ounces miniature chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch (for tossing chocolate chips)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a standard 9-inch by 5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
  2. In a stand mixer bowl, mix together the flour blend, xanthan gum, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  3. Whisk to combine well.
  4. Create a well in the center and add butter, yogurt, and eggs.
  5. Mix on medium speed until completely combined; expect a thick batter.
  6. Toss chocolate chips in the teaspoon of cornstarch, then fold them into the batter with a spatula.
  7. Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with wet hands.
  8. Make a 1/4-inch-deep slash down the middle with a sharp knife.
Baking
  1. Bake in the center of the oven for 30 minutes.
  2. Then reduce the temperature to 325°F and bake for another 20 minutes until the top springs back when lightly pressed.
  3. Allow to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. Slice and serve.

Notes

Store leftovers in the fridge for about 5-7 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat slices in the microwave or toaster for a fresh-baked taste. Room temperature ingredients yield a fluffier texture.
