8 tbls. gluten free flour blend (use Betty Crocker Gluten Free blend today.Trader Joe's brand, Cup 4 Cup brand, Hodgson Mill brand or your
own gluten free flour blend. They all work fine
1 tbls. sugar (I used raw sugar but you can use regular sugar)
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. salt
pinch of xanthan gum or guar gum if your gluten free flour mix doesn't already contain it (I used 1/16 tsp. which is half of 1/8 teaspoonful. It is literally a tiny amount!)
1 egg
3 tbs. milk (you can substitute almond milk, soy milk, rice milk or water if you have a dairy allergy)
1 teaspoon butter, margarine or oil
(you can add optional seasonings if you want like cinnamon, Italian blend, Rosemary or dried fruit like raisins or cranberries. limit the amount of dried fruit to about 2-3 tbls)
Mix the egg, milk and butter or oil together with a fork. Stir in flour, sugar, baking powder & salt (xanthan gum or guar gum if you need to use it). Pour into a microwave safe coffee mug. You can even mix it in the coffee mug if you have to. I just like to lightly coat my coffee mug with cooking spray or butter/oil so the bread loaf pops out really easy. I have done it without the grease coating and it works okay too but just a little more work getting it out of the mug. Microwave on high for 90 seconds. I usually take a look at it and if still looks uncooked on the top then I toss it back into the microwave for additional 20-30 seconds. You don't want gummy bread. On the other hand, don't over bake it either or you will get a rubbery texture. Cool slightly and enjoy it warm, cold or toasted!
