Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Step 2

Mix flour blend, buckwheat flour, sugar, xanthan gum, and salt together in a bowl.

Beat eggs, vegetable oil, agave, and apple cider vinegar in another large bowl with an electric mixer. Mix in dry ingredients and beat until smooth. Stir in beer and yeast, then mix on high speed for 4 minutes. Pour into the prepared loaf pan.
