Super Soft Gluten Free Bread

I did it again! This gluten free bread is super soft, hence the name; and it tastes really great. One of the differences is that it is made with oat flour instead of sorghum flour, so the flavor is closer to white bread than my "Even Better Gluten Free Bread". The baking technique is also different. Instead of letting the dough rise for hours, this one is baked right away. This technique is the one I use for my french bread (post coming soon), and I am thrilled with the result.

This bread is perfect for sandwiches, toast, french toast, or anything else you can think of. Tell me, how will you use it?

Not only does it look good, but the smell was overwhelming. I really had to exert a ton of self-control to keep from eating this whole loaf before I was able to photograph it.
