I’ve been eyeing my KitchenAid mixer all week. I was really anxious to use it–partially because I couldn’t wait and partially because I didn’t know what to do with it. I’ve never had a real kitchen appliance before.
So tonight I decided it was time. I kind of wanted to try out the bread hook but I had no plans of using yeast. Nope. Not yet. Give me time.
So I found this yeast-free recipe (which also happened to be vegan) and made it gluten-free. Whew. That’s annoying.
Obviously I did not follow it. I used brown sugar, agave nectar, all-purpose gluten-free flour and added ground flax and chia seeds.
I also decided the bread hook looks a lot like a pirate hook.
And I love this mixer.
For some reason I thought it would be really scary and difficult–like the first time we tried to use the food processor. COMPLICATED. Do you know how many pieces that thing has?
Not that KitchenAid, though. Plug it in. Flip the switch. I love it.
As for the bread… It’s what you’d expect of vegan gluten-free, yeast-free bread. Oh, you wouldn’t expect it to be good? It is. You just can’t expect it to be like regular bread. It’s much denser and crumbles more easily.
I sampled it with Nuttzo and agave nectar. Delicious.

this bread is delicious and biscuity
